1969 Cabin retreat with Lake Rights!
Vivian's cabin is PERFECTION! From the moment my husband and I arrived we felt welcomed and right at home. Nestled amongst the pines with just a few steps to cabin for easy access we felt instantly relaxed and excited for our weekend. The cabin is very clean with all the cozy mountain vibes. Vivian has impeccable taste in decor. We enjoyed meals looking out to the trees and watching the squirrels scamper on the deck, reading cozied up by the fire at night listening to Vivian's great record collection, soaked in the clawfoot bathtub with heated floors in the beautiful bathroom, and slept so well in the comfy bed and woke up looking out the most magnificent bedroom window like we were in a treehouse. The neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful and also close to the brewery and village. Vivian was a fabulous host and provided everything we needed. And we loved the guest book with the old photos of the cabin. Looking forward to planning our next stay!

Exquisite Mountain Home Near Lake and Village
We’ve stayed here numerous times and wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else when we’re in Arrowhead! Gorgeous house and the best hosts! The Village is literally around the corner too.

The Maple Cottage: family cabin by @themaplecabins
We’ve stayed in 4 Lake Arrowhead Airbnbs in the last two years and this was our favorite. It was immaculate (cleanliness is something I have very high standards for). It was well decorated and cozy—we particularly loved the comfortable couch and the gas fireplace. The secret kids room was a huge hit with my three-year-old who didn’t unpack a single toy or book we brought with us and it was very convenient that they had a pack and play (and a slumber pod even though we didn’t end up using it—the rooms get pretty dark and my toddler no longer needs it pitch black). The welcome gift with a personalized message, s’mores kit and hot cocoa was a really nice touch. We didn’t need a single thing while we were there so we didn’t touch base with Natalie much but we left our toddler’s pillow behind and even after check out she was very responsive and helpful. Super easy walk to the lake trail and close to the village and brewery. Great enclosed yard for pets. We loved every minute of our stay!

Waterfront. Gameroom, Dock in water. Spa. Firepit.
Great cabin with amazing views! Very roomy and plenty of things to do in the cabin.

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful home! Big Bear is such a fun place to visit with so much to do all year round. We spent a week during spring break and could not have asked for more at this cabin. It was big and cozy and very well equipped with everything we needed and more than we expected! We spent most nights in the game room that had something for everyone, and the fireplace kept the upstairs toasty while adding ambience. The yard was massive and fully enclosed so we felt safe letting our dog outside. The kitchen had everything, lots of space, and being open to the living room area allowed us all to spend time together while cooking. The host was super responsive and proactive and the neighborhood was quiet and close to The Village. We would totally stay here again!!!

Modern retreat with amazing lake view!
We had an amazing weekend stay at this beautifully designed home in Lake Arrowhead. The space was not only stylish and cozy, but also offered breathtaking views that made our trip even more special. Jennifer was incredibly responsive and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I also really appreciated the well-stocked kitchen—there were plenty of spices, and even olive oil was thoughtfully provided. Every detail was so well taken care of. Highly recommend this place and would absolutely love to come back! Thank you so much Jennifer

Lake Cabin King Bed Huge Yard 4 Kids/Dogs Fire Pit
This cabin was absolutely beautiful! Our family easily settled right in and felt like it was home. Kingston was very responsive and the cabin was exactly as shown in the pictures! We will definitely be back and recommend anyone to stay here.

The Engels Nest Trails, Fire pit, BBQ, Remodeled!
Second stay in as many weeks! Jodi’s place was perfect for a family powder day at Snow Valley.

Bearadise condo/free EV charger/spa/lake access
Cozy place for us as a family of 4. The EV charger is so convenient for us this trip. The apt is 15’ away from snow summit or 10’ from downtown but we love the peaceful surroundings (walking distance to the bay). Extra blankets are helpful. We enjoyed the jacuzzi after a day of snowboarding/skiing. The hosts are mostly responsive.

Cozy vintage Cottage near lake, shops& restaurants
The home was perfect for our family Christmas. Our kids loved the outdoor fire pit and board games. Home was perfectly described as an antique home with very a lot of detail in the home still. We will definitely be booking again

Chic Renovated Cabin w/Lake Access! Steps to lake!
Great location if you are visiting Lake Arrowhead. It’s less than 5 minutes to get to the village that has most of the restaurants. Lake Gregory is also about 15 minutes away. Great space for our family of 4. Cassidy was very responsive and gave great details about our stay.

Luxury Boutique Cabins On The Lake & In The Trees
If you’re looking for a cozy home with beautiful amenities, this is perfect! We were two families (9 total, including teens and a 3-year-old), and everyone had a fantastic time. The private backyard with a walking trail was a highlight, offering peace of mind as the kids explored safely. The warm, welcoming community added to the charm, making us feel right at home. For cooking enthusiasts, this home is a dream! The kitchen was fully stocked, so we didn’t need the extra cookware we brought. A testament to how thoughtful the hosts are. The entire home is impeccably designed, with every detail considered to ensure comfort. You can book with confidence knowing this space feels like home. Fair warning: your spouse may leave inspired to recreate the décor or amenities at home! 😄 Highly recommend for anyone seeking a comfortable, quiet, scenery, well-equipped getaway.

"THE MAHANOY" - 1946 Cozy Craftman in the woods
This is our second year spending Thanksgiving at Emmett’s Place. There was surprisingly little traffic on the ride up to Big Bear, so Emmett let us check in hours early. Emmett is a responsive, proactive, and friendly host, whose house and furnishings are attractive and very comfortable. My dog loved the fenced-in yard. My adult daughter and I had the best, most relaxing time. Our favorite place in Big Bear is inside Emmett’s house.

Ahhhdorable Vintage Storybook Cottage.
Only stayed for a night but it was a comfortable stay. The cabin is cozy and perfect for the 2 of us and our dogs. We unfortunately had bad weather the day we arrived, but kept ourselves busy in the cabin with the board games we found. Especially loved sitting by the fireplace. The cabin was also conveniently located to the Main Street where all the restaurants are located, so it was nice being able to walk there.

The Cottage at Lake Arrowhead
Sharon's Cottage was lovely. The house and property are beautiful and nestled in a quiet, quaint neighborhood. Just a few minute drive from all the shops at Lake Arrowhead. My family of five stayed for 3 nights. The kids loved it. Lots of board games and children's toys were available. Sharon was a fantastic host. Answered any questions we had prior to our stay and was so accommodating allowing us to check-in early. Can't say enough about this place. Thank you, Sharon!

Use of Lake Membership Card/ New Hot Tub
Staying at the Cozy Cottage was an amazing experience! I booked the cabin for a weekend trip as a Valentine’s Day present, and our stay there was perfect. Mary Ann & Chuck were both very helpful, they guided us to an alternate route to the cabin to avoid an icy/snowy hill, and made sure we got there okay. As far as the cabin itself goes, there’s really nothing bad to say. The heaters upstairs and downstairs work great, and they work fast. You don’t need to go above 68° to really feel warm. The water pressure & heat in the shower is great, the bathroom’s immaculately clean, and very well-themed! The master bedroom is also very well put together. Everything is labeled, but non-obstructively; you only see them when you need them! We made sure to follow the guide & instructions in welcome packet & introductory e-mail, and we had no questions. Check-out was very flexible, and the amenities are amazing. Make sure to sign the guest book if you visit :) 10/10!!

Lake Retreat – Spa, AC, Fenced Yard, Walk to Lake!
