Absolutely loved this beautiful home! We had a party of 11 (4 of them were teens) and the house was the perfect size. Close to the lake, grocery stores, restaurants and shopping. Check-in was easy, house was immaculate and there were plenty of houseware supplies for cooking. The teens (as well as adults) were entertained with the pool table, video games, air hockey and corn hole that were available at the house, not a bored body in sight!!! I was impressed with the "home guide" that provided fishing locations, hiking locations etc! It really helps when you're not a local. I was concerned before arrival when I learned that there was no central A/C, however there is a wall unit in the upstairs family room and multiple fans throughout the house. I admit I am a grouchy person in the heat but it was perfect with the a/c and fans. Downstairs stayed pretty cool all the time. I just advise to keep window shades closed during those peak sun hours to keep it cool. Julie was great with suggestions of activities and dining before we even arrived in Big Bear. It helped us plan activities for the whole family ahead of arrival.
