Grizzly Getaway

My family, including three teenagers and our large dog, stayed at Grizzly Getaway for 3 days, including during a major snowstorm. It was everything we hoped for – spacious, well-stocked, attractive, warm, clean and comfortable. Doria was incredibly helpful and responsive when we had questions during our stay, and left us a wonderful welcome basket. The fireplace and the jacuzzi were our mainstays and they were fabulous. Everything we needed was easy to find and in a logical place (ex, coffee filters, lighter for the wood, extra blankets, kitchen utensils). We will definitely be coming back!!

A nice cabin in the Moonridge area. Just what we were looking for to get away a couple of nights for the Perseid meteor shower.

Grizzly Getaway was the perfect escape! The cabin is spacious, beautifully decorated, and feels like a true mountain retreat. We loved relaxing by the fireplace and soaking in the new spa after skiing. Peaceful location but super close to the slopes and lake. Highly recommend!

Great stay at the Grizzly Getaway. Perfect Place to relax and to get away from all the city noise.

Place was roomy with a good feel. Check in was an absolute breeze and host very responsive! Hot tub was perfectly clean. Wish they had a grill, though.

Great spot! You have a completely fenced in yard with lots of running room. The layout of the house worked out great for my family. Plus, it’s a great location, spacious house, and made a great spot for our weekend away. The house has a game closet FULL of games, which my 5-year-old loved! He learned how to play some new games (that were some of my favorites as a kid) and now I have some good Christmas present ideas for him. I highly recommend this house, it’s such a great spot!

Very big spacious place. The decor is Big Bearish. Lots of board games to stay indoors away from the cold. We used the fire place and fed it lots of wood. There was even enough room for the kid to slide in the snow safely away from the street. There was enough parking for four vehicles. Loved the home!!!

Wonderful spacious cabin with all necessary amenities (and then some!). It was spotless while still feeling homey and all guests felt comfortable while staying here. We had a great time and have already made recommendations to our friends and family. The gift basket was also a nice surprise! You won’t be disappointed if you book a stay here!

This place is great! It’s about 15 minutes from town on a nice quiet street. Plenty of room for 3x couples. Great hot tub on the balcony. Easy process getting in and out, with plenty of instructions and suggestions from the host to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Excellent host. Provided everything our group could’ve possibly needed and was extremely responsive to every question we had. Couldn’t have asked for a better cabin or host. God Bless! Hope to come again soon.

We stayed with 6 people for three nights at Grizzy Getaway and it was perfect! Luckily it snowed a few days before- so the neighborhood was like a winter wonderland! Having the spa was awesome & the house was the perfect place for a long weekend vacation. The location was great – 10 minute drive to town [about 8 minutes to a local coffee shop with great breakfast sandwiches] and 8 minutes to snowboarding/skiing… we drove around the neighborhood and found some great places to go sledding as well. Overall I would highly recommend this rental & we will definitely be coming back! Doria the host was great… we had zero issues with the house, checking in, leaving, etc. Will definitely book through Doria again. Thank you for helping us ring in 2015 in Big Bear!

Everything about this place was excellent. The cabin was clean and welcoming. The hot tub was great after a day of hiking and we we found trails to hike within walking distance of the cabin. Would go again for sure.

Hola. En Enero 2014 fuimos a Big Bear y nos hospedamos en la cabaña Grizzly Getaway. Todo estuvo de maravilla. Todos los servicios funcionaban perfectamente; Agua caliente, gas, luz, el jacuzzi tenía agua caliente todo el tiempo. La cabaña estaba completamente equipada; Todos los utensilios de cocina, los baños con toallas y artículos de baño. Todo el mobiliario y equipo están en excelente estado! Nos dejaron canastas con folletos informativos de la ciudad, medicinas y snacks. La casa tiene un excelente mantenimiento. Volveríamos encantados a Grizzly Gateaway! El servicio de la empresa BigBear Escapes fue excelente. Los recomiendo ampliamente.

Grizzly Getaway is an outstanding property, impeccably maintained and having all of the amenities of home. We were delighted by all of the touches, such as the wonderfully stocked kitchen, hotel quality towels, huge HDTV, and the game closet to keep the youngsters busy. The newly installed spa is wonderful and we felt immediately at home in this property, I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in a
top notch cabin experience that is truly a home away from home. The proximity to Bear Mountain and nearby shopping is fantastic, and we hope to get a chance to stay there again soon!

Sincerely,

Thank you to Doria and Big Bear Escapes for saving our Christmas! With our oldest of two children away in the army, we were not looking forward to spending a Christmas at home without him. We decided to rent Grizzly Getaway and escape to the mountains with grandma and my youngest son. We even took our two Yorkies! The cabin was beautifully decorated and with three bedrooms, the four of us had plenty of space. My 13 year old built a snowman, took snowboard lessons, and relaxed in the spa. The dogs enjoyed their walks and we all had fun playing games by the fire. We even roasted marshmallows! We were delighted to find a small tree with lights in the living room. We had brought some small decorations and expected to have to buy a Christmas tree, but there was no need. Our Christmas was perfect, with the exception of the fact that we were missing our older son. Big Bear Escapes even provided us with a ham and champaign for our Christmas dinner! The cabin was so well supplied with soap, shampoos, and other necessities, that vertically the only groceries we had to purchase was our food. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of cooking supplies. Everything was clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the gift basket that we were given. It was chockfull of goodies, even something for the dogs! So many treats & goodies in fact, that we were able to package up some of them to send to NY to our soldier, who was experiencing his first Christmas alone. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Grizzly Getaway!!! We highly recommend it and Big Bear Escapes. We couldn’t have asked for better service or accommodations and we will definitely rent through them in the future!
