Rated #1 on AirDNA for guest satisfaction with over 600 five-star ranch reviews under my host account. Airbnb did not restore reviews after the home was off-platform for two years. This unique Old West–themed ranch (think Knott’s Berry Farm) features four bedrooms, two baths, including an open loft overlooking the living room. Photos don’t do it justice. Rustic butler/concierge onsite in a separate residence. If you got kids coming on the trip, this is the one.

The space
About this space
Enjoy EV charging at Teddy Bear’s Ranch (leave a tip in the Master Bedroom tip jar) — an Old West–style retreat complete with a mini ghost town, carnival games, gold panning, a log teeter-totter, a giant rocking horse, and a 9-hole mini golf course!

Close to the lake, restaurants, ski resorts, and shops, this rustic log cabin features a wood-burning fireplace, a spacious master suite with private bath, and all the comforts of home.

Note: Details about security cameras are listed under “Guest Safety.”
Guests with animal allergies should avoid this listing. A copy of the Occupancy Agreement can be found under “Additional Rules” in the House Rules section.

Master Suite (Upstairs) with queen bed, private bath, Roku TV (with Big Bear TV and premium channels), Keurig coffee maker, microwave, and mini-fridge.

Hosts are not responsible for local business or event availability.

Inside the garage is off-limits unless Owner and guests arrange a time to access. Inside Big Bear TV does have video camera inside due to filming and security purposes.

Check for special events or road conditions before travel — Big Bear’s Fourth of July fireworks, bike races, or snow can impact traffic. There are three main routes to Big Bear; verify conditions for all before driving.

Owner: Has a camper on the property where he resides. The camper is located in a horse corral that is fenced off from the grounds. Owner may access his chickens in their chicken coops during your stay as well as Big Bear Television studio in the garage.

Guest access

Other things to note
There are literally too many things to list here at the ranch. Lots of fun to be had. Guests have complete and sole use of the log cabin.

Born in the 70s
My work: Big Bear Television
As a prior tour guide at Universal Studios and a TV producer/real estate agent, I love imagination and invention. I also work part-time as the Marketing Director at Village Theaters and the Holiday Inn in Big Bear Lake, CA. I host a few TV shows on Big Bear TV. If you want to be interviewed about your visit to Big Bear, let me know. Also, be okay with your interview airing on BBTV. My first job back in the 90s was promoting gospel music followed by working at Dollywood.
