This was our first time staying at Cathy's Cottages, and although there were a few minor things we would have liked it was an overall great stay. The room was clean, they offer all the amenities, and the fireplace as well as the tub was the absolute best. We used the tub each night and it made the whole trip worth it while having the foreplace on. It was relaxing and just agreat experience. Check in and out was seamless and all info provided ahead of time. We will definitely be returning.

Difficult reservation system, Communication by text only. The links were troublesome for confirmation. Very clean, spacious, disappointing getaway with heavy traffic on Big Bear Blvd The gas fireplace was not the same as a wood-burning fireplace. Will be sure to get a cabin off Big Bear Blvd. next visit .

Nice place for the weekend if you're looking for a quaint, cute, little spot. However, it could use some upgrades. Couch was the worse and even looked stained. However, we put a sheet on it and it worked for a couple nights.

Great Romantic Getaway

Very Cozy with a nice, firm bed, fireplace, couch and jacuzzi tub wide enough to sit side by side snd watch TV. Also loved the two shower heads with plenty of room to shower together. Located North of Division Rd so we got a chance to explore reataurants and shops we don't typically see when staying close to the villiage, like a newly discovered favorite, Pickles Pie Shop, where you'll find the best home made pies on the mountain. Order ahead, they run out fast.
