The space
Follow us @ thecedarhouse_bigbear

Originally built in 1977, this approximately 1,000 square foot cabin has been tastefully updated with a modern touch while still keeping pieces of '70s charm. It features an open concept main living space complete with a fireplace, thoughtful furnishings, and fully stocked kitchen with brand new stainless steel appliances. A hallway separates the main living areas from the nature-inspired full bathroom with shower/tub, a laundry area equipped with a washer/dryer for guest use, and two serene & simple bedrooms.

The main bedroom is spacious and includes a King bed with a cozy duvet, 3-drawer dresser, mid-century lounge chair, TV and laptop workstation. The smaller second bedroom includes a Queen bed, stylish workspace for catching up on any work during your trip, and a sliding glass door that opens up to a small patio so you can sit and enjoy the morning views.

The cabin is equipped with high-speed wireless Internet access, a 4K Smart television ready to go with digital streaming (150+ streaming channels with NFL Sunday Ticket + NFL RedZone and on-demand), Netflix, PBS Kids, as well Airplay 2 mirroring for supported devices.

The kitchen includes a brand new dishwasher, gas range stove/oven, fridge, and microwave, in addition to all of the essential tools needed to cook a great meal. Enjoy a cup of coffee using beans or select teas provided for guests. We even have a crepe maker on hand in case you're craving a French delicacy (one of our favorite Big Bear spots is the Cafe Crepe drive-thru in Big Bear!) but don't want to leave the cozy cabin.

A lovely fireplace keeps the home nice & toasty during the winter months, in addition to the main living area wall furnace. The bedrooms are also both equipped with infrared wall heaters, giving guests the luxury of setting their own individual sleeping temperatures. Though there's no A/C, the cabin stays comfortable in the summer months due to all of the trees shading the property, and there are also ceiling fans in each of the bedrooms so you can stay cool and breezy at night.

The backyard is large and fenced, perfect for snow play in the winter months and quiet, relaxing outdoor evenings on the back porch in the summer months.

While we allow pets, we do have a strict 2 pet/dog limit, and ask that guests be diligent and make sure their pets do not damage the property or furnishings.

I spend too much time: organizing
Fun fact: We live near Tarek & Heather's BB cabin!
We spent a decade soaking up West Coast life, and California will always have a piece of our hearts. These days we're settled in Michigan with our two daughters and two rescue pups, Apple the dachshund and her little golden retriever sister Penny. We're experienced Airbnb hosts and genuinely love creating spaces where guests feel taken care of. The details matter to us, and we put that into everything we do.
