"Loved my cabin!"

5 of 5

Loved my cabin!! Also the office staff is so friendly and someone is always available to help. I couldn’t locate the thermostat upon arrival and I was easily guided to its location. Cabin was a ten+ everything clean and up to my standards. Definitely will be using them for every trip we make moving forward.

The communication prior to arrival and the check-in and out process was so easy, and they have a huge inventory of properties to pick from.

"Very Nice Weekend Away"

5 of 5

We needed a family trip and this did the trick. It was perfect for 3 couples and there was plenty of space. It was walking distance to most of the places we wanted to go.

"Perfect! "

5 of 5

Everything was perfect. Location, view and cleanliness. Can’t wait to go back. Really enjoyed so much. Hot tub and Keurig was a bonus to also enjoy. Every appliance was In The kitchen. We loved the deck and the view. Birds. Omg everything Beds and bathrooms were just like home. 5star review Note you need to know stairs but we enjoyed the exercise:) Thank You

"Great Getaway Home"

5 of 5

This home has it all — excellent views of the lake, walking distance to downtown, and super comfortable home. The gourmet kitchen is well-stocked. There are two living rooms on separate floors, each with big screen TVs, stone fireplaces, and pullout beds in the couches if you need an extra bit of sleeping space. We really appreciated having second and third story decks to have coffee on in the morning and cocktails at sunset. The kids were not bored at all between the lake, pool table on the second floor, Jacuzzi on the back deck, and plenty of boardgames! We will definitely stay At Bare Necessities again on our next trip to Big Bear...so relaxing!!!

-Carolyn R. on 08/17/2019

 

"Views are amazing! "

5 of 5

We love our time spent here at this big cabin. Rooms for everyone to have their own space. 3 levels of roomy fun! Very clean and walking distance to shops and restaurants and the lake across the way. Views are amazing from every level. A must book!
