The house features top of the line appliances and conveniences. The house is 3 levels. The first floor, which is street level, enters into a large foyer followed by a expansive game room with fireplace and attached full bath. Stairs lead upstairs to the second level, where you find a 25' ceiling sitting room comfortable for 12 with fireplace, dining room for 10, spacious kitchen with center bar, and master bedroom and adjoining full bath. Expansive decks on either side are accessible from the second floor. Off the kitchen, a secluded deck offers a BBQ, patio furniture and a 6 person spa with speakers (aux input) ideal for late night and apre-ski soaking.

Located in the exclusive Big Bear Castle Glen Estates, this property offers privacy and space, it's backyard a 10 acre eagle preserve.

PARKING: There are two driveways and two garages. Off winter you can easily park up to 5 cars on the property. Street parking is prohibited. In snowy conditions, the upper driveway, being steep, gets icy and very slippery. When icy, we recommend only one car be parked on the upper driveway and parked at the bottom. The lower driveway is flat and also has a 2 car garage, thus accommodating 4 cars in summer or winter. There is plenty of permitted street parking, even in the winter; however, if it snows the city snowplows need access to the streets. If your car is parked on the street when the city has to plow they will likely maneuver around your car, but may tow or cite you as permitted by law. Regardless, during winter, the risks during scheduled snow plowing are yours. Please note, I contract annually with a local snowplowing service to remove snow from the driveways.

Surveillance Cameras, Noise Monitoring and Remote Control Devices: There are 5 motion censored exterior cameras on the premises: 1 at the lower driveway; 1 at the upper driveway; 1 at the 2nd floor front door and deck; 1 at the 1st floor front door and 1 on the 2nd floor rear deck (spa is not visible). There are 3 noise monitoring devices that measure noise levels in decibels but do not record any audio. They are located at the front deck, rear deck, and living room. Lastly, several functions can be controlled remotely by the Owner. These include the front door lock, the water supply line, the thermostats and the exterior landscape lighting.

There are The house is located within 2 miles of the two ski resorts. In the summer take in a stroll to the lake, or ride bikes (5) provided at the house, for boating, jet skiing, water skiing and fishing. City License #: VRR-2023-0745 Expiration 6/7/24.

Wonderful place!
Martin was a great host and provided super communication both before and during our stay. The house is massive and gave our large group plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy our time there. Very clean and had a well-stocked kitchen! The kids enjoyed snow-play in the back and side yards and it was close enough to the slopes to have someone easily drop off and pick up the ski and snowboarders in our group. Would love to come back another time. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Mountain Cabin for Family and Friends
The Mt Villa property exceeded our expectations! Great proximity to skiing, sledding and conveniently getting around town. The property is well maintained and has everything needed to accommodate large parties. We had a family reunion with 10 people and the house was perfect. The property is beautiful inside and out in an area of larger homes and cabins. Martin was a fantastic host and was very attentive to anything we needed. We will definitely be coming back for another stay in the future.

Beautiful Cabin Villa
Very impressed with the villa. When you step inside, all you'll say is WOW! Plenty of beds, somewhat to soft though. Beautiful spa on the deck, but couldn't lower the temperature, too hot for the summertime.

About the host

Hosted by Martin

Host profile image
Southern California resident. Have enjoyed Big Bear for years, especially as a kid. I enjoy the area for skiing, boating, fishing, and hiking, and I enjoy hosting my guests. I come often when the house is rented, to of course work on the house, but also enjoy the fresh alpine air, hikes and friendly community.

Why they chose this property

Big Bear is an ideal getaway from the hustle and bustle down the hill. Its a world away; yet only 2 hours away. I purchased this home from the builder in 2005. I think the Castle Glen development is high-end, exclusive and offers a lot of privacy. I think you'll enjoy it as well.

What makes this property unique

Its large, big enough for even large groups to feel they have plenty of space. Because of the way its situated against a vast forest in the back, it offers privacy and unobstructed natural views that most properties can't offer.
