This is by no means a cabin.
Poorly advertised.

5 days 4 nights
1 sink is clogged, luckily there are 2 sinks in the room. Room has been cleaned by around 3:30pm, and I didn't receive the door code until 4:30pm. I was being told it needs an inspection; I was waiting in front of the cabin and there were no one entering the building for inspection. Microwave is wornt; it takes forever to heat up food. The rod is also broken, and it fell. no place to hang clothes, jackets etc. lack of towels for 4 nights stay. mattress is extremely soft; you won't be able to get a good sleep out of it.
the heater was great, it warms up the room nicely.

The management was really responsive and kind. Overall, this place is average. There is no A/C, so be prepared if you come during the summer. It’s about 10-12 minutes from the main area in Big Bear. The property was quiet.

It’s everything you want in a place that’s affordable and close to nearly everything you’d want. If you’re looking for a cheap clean spot to stay at while looking to snowboard and ski this is your spot!

Early Anniversary Get-Away 🙂
A very clean, cute room with all of the necessities for a quiet and relaxing weekend. Would definitely recommend. We will definitely be back. My husband and I had a wonderful time. The reservation manager, Tanya, was very nice and helpful.

The Tao Cabin was a nice little getaway from reality and a space to relax. The setup was nice and open and I felt like I was at a few different places depending on where I was in the room. The shower was a surprising feature but was very much welcomed!

Steep dark stairs, lamps with “red” lights on the night stands and very strange vibe.

Stay was ok, missed having AC available, a portable fan was helpful but room felt warm throughout our stay during the hot summer weekend. The bed was comfortable although the memory foam made body feel hot again with no AC in room. Place was decent, clean, and easy to get in room, close enough to drive down to restaurants and to the lake.

Big Bear City out of power
By the time I arrived to Big Bear I find out the city had a power outreach. Trying to go places like Discovery Center was close, stores were close or open but using my cell phone light to check prices …..Didn't know wat time the power will come back Then I desired to head back home.

The staff were very helpful they did great answering my questions and even helped accommodate for my extra requests. Plus they also allowed me to extend my room as long as no one else had booked it. The room was very clean and looked amazing. Will definitely be coming back!
