• Two king beds, FIVE queen beds and two twin beds so we have plenty of room for guests without sleeping on sofas or sofa beds.

And if that's not enough to pique your interest and make you want to stay at our place then please read on for lots of details...

We often call it a Cabin-House because it's up in the mountains, has high wood ceilings, wood beams, a stone fireplace backdrop and is nestled in pine and juniper trees. It's also a fully functional house with all the amenities you have in your own home plus more. It can easily accommodate multiple families or groups as there are FIVE bedrooms with 9 beds and 3 bathrooms. These are REAL BEDS with 2 Kings, 5 Queens and 2 Twins beds. The bedrooms are all on the first floor and the entertainment space and kitchen are on the second floor. With its reverse floor plan and as one of our guests commented in their review, it's a nice separation of socialization and entertainment area verses a quiet area for sleep.

This house is an entertainer's dream with a game room that will ensure everyone has a good time. Some of the fun provisions include a 9 foot professional size pool table, a foosball table, air hockey and ping pong games, a Williams Big Deal Pinball Machine, full size Shoot-to-Win basketball arcade game with two hoops and an Golden Tee Go video golf game with 57 courses (2022 model). We have a Bally Multicade stand up arcade game with 60 classic 1980's games. The games include Pac Man, Centipede, Millipede, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders, Frogger and Dig Dug. The game room has two large TVs, a SONOS sound bar for music, music videos, karaoke system, a wall mounted TV with DirecTV and more.

Most places in Big Bear have a checkout time of 10am and allow the next guests to check-in at 3pm the same day. We do the opposite, still letting you check-in at 3pm but the checkout is at 5pm. That means our weekend guests have pretty much the whole day on Sunday to relax at the house, have a nice breakfast, enjoy the mountains or even hit the slopes one last time. That also allows us to have at least 22 hours between guests to make sure the house has been cleaned, supplies restocked, games operational, propane tanks refilled, hot tub serviced and whatever else we need to do to make sure everything is ready for you. Please consider that when deciding what home works best for you and what you are looking for.

Our place is an easy drive from North Shore Drive in Big Bear City (not the City of Big Bear Lake). We have off-street parking on concrete for up to 6 cars, plenty of free firewood and Big Bear City trash pickup with two 96-gallon cans (yes, there is trash pickup in some parts of Big Bear!). The open floor plan and layout is great for groups of people as the large kitchen and family room floor connect to the game room along with decks at the front and back. With 1,400 sq ft of indoor space upstairs and over 800 sq. ft. of outside decks, this makes for 2,200 sq. ft. of connected indoor and outdoor "entertainment space" on the second floor. The five bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor add another 1,300 sq. ft. so there is plenty of room.

There are five bedrooms, all downstairs and a total of 9 beds. The rooms are as follows:

Bedroom 1 - One Cal King Bed
Bedroom 2 - One Cal King Bed with a pine log frame
Bedroom 3 - Queen over Queen Loft Bed plus a twin over twin bunk-bed
Bedroom 4 - Queen over Queen Bunk-beds
Bedroom 5 - Queen four poster bed
Bedroom 6 - The game room was originally the Master Bedroom of the house so it is considered by the County Assessor-Recorder to be the sixth bedroom.

For some, the focal point of the family room is the fireplace and for others it's the 75 inch LG TV. The fireplace is actually a cast iron fireplace insert and can be set up to heat the house up or used with a screen to enjoy a crackling fire. The TV has DirecTV with an HD DVR and a Sony sound system. The smart TV can be used with YouTube or your NetFlix, Hulu Plus, Home Media Servers or other accounts. Of course we have free high speed Spectrum Internet up to 100 Mbps download. There are two brown leather couches in the family room and a large leather comfy chair with an ottoman. There is a two-seat black leather sofa with recliners.

The game room is the centerpiece of fun in the house. It's separated from the family room by a barn door, which we usually keep open. In the center of the room is a 9 foot professional size pool table that weighs over 1,000 lbs. The light above it is made from two snowboards with LED lights in between. There is a two player Shoot-to-Win Basketball arcade game that's 9 feet long, 4 feet wide and 9 feet tall. The game was built in 1994 (I bought it in 2002) and after playing over 82,000 games, the electronics went out and the manufacturer could not repair it. We decided to update it with modern Pop-A-Shot electronics. It's now a hybrid with a super heavy duty and durable frame & netting and new electronics. Our latest addition to the game room is a Williams Big Deal pinball machine.

As mentioned above, we have a Golden Tee video golf game just like you see in many bars and arcades. Our Bally Multicade game has been a big hit. Each game has high scores so those of us who grew up in the 80's playing these games have an advantage and a duty to beat the high score of the youngsters.

The kitchen has dishes, glasses, coffee mugs, silverware, martini, wine and shot glasses. There are a large variety of pots and pans, frying pans, pancake griddle, cooking utensils, mixing bowls, bake ware, hot pads, can opener, corkscrew, cooking and steak knives. There is a toaster, bender, mixer, food processor, Belgian Waffle maker, a crock pot, a rice maker, digital probe cooking thermometer, Keurig 2.0 coffee maker, K-Cup holder/dispenser that we keep full with a variety of pods, a regular coffee pot and filters. We have plenty of dishes, plates and two drawers full of tableware to accommodate large groups. A spice rack and a full spice cabinet contain both common and unique spices for your cooking needs.

Adjacent to the cooking area is a 10-seat counter height table and padded chairs. Ceiling fans with lights above the kitchen table and over the couch are nice for air circulation and extra light, especially during the summer.

There are three outside decks, two upstairs and one downstairs. The upstairs back deck is the largest one at 656 sq. ft. It has our Hot Springs Limelight Flash 7-person hot tub. The amazing jets, lights, controls, you name it... we really like it and I am sure you will too. The deck has a propane gas BBQ, outdoor heater, gas fire pit, a Kettler outdoor aluminum ping pong table, a foosball table and a patio furniture set.
