Big Bear City Vacation Rentals

"Amazingly cute cabin. Had everything we could need. "

"We don’t often ‘Review’, leaving that to others … But, where shall we start? … Built in 1928 as “Murmuring Pines”. Today it’s best known as the Gold Mountain Manor, a wonderful, historically maintained Bed-and-Breakfast. The original builder family invested in the early West Coast Movie Business and their sprawling 25 acre ranch Main House sufficed to keep the ‘who’s who” of Hollywood away from public eye. The current day Manor rests on an acre. It’s authentic "ranch-style" Log Mansion is an example of early 20th-century luxury architecture. CHARMING. As first time Bookers here, we were ‘Internet Skeptical’ but that was laid-to-rest the moment we drove up and was greeted by one of the owners, Darrin. Located on the North side of Big Bear Valley in a quiet area tucked slightly inland from the water’s edge of beautiful Big Bear Lake. The 7,000sf mansion exudes common areas large enough for entertaining. The main room grand fireplace is built from quartz mined from Gold Mountain. Looking closely, you can see flecks of gold embedded. Of the current day 7 Suites, we chose the Cozy Pine with its modernized rustic feel, a tree inspired 7 foot poster bed, a slate-surrounded jacuzzi tub for two, remote-controlled fireplace and in-room TV and Coffee. ........ continued on next review ......"

"The heater didn’t work the second night."

"The rooms were not cleaned, the sheets and blankets were not washed, carpets were dirty and stained, there was dog hair all over the couches and beds, there was trash under couches, beds, chairs, and dressers, the pots and pans were greasy and sticky, and the pillows were all stained and stiff."

"Terrible place it was run down "

"Showed up and couldn’t park in driveway due to snow or walk to front door due to snow. No shovel on property. Had to borrow one from neighbors. Hot in was cold and wouldn’t warm up. 2 microwaves and neither worked. "

"All is good"

"The property was clean and fully equipped "
