Mighty Bear Manor by AvantStay | Elevated w/ Pine Tree Views, Hot Tub&Pool Table

Welcome to Mighty Bear Manor, an AvantStay home!

A real cabin with wood beams, stone accents, views of mountains from the 1200 SQFT deck, and quality cabin decor, Woodglen is set apart from all other homes in Big Bear Lake. Only 5-minutes from Bear Mountain and Snow Summit and two minutes to the lake, Mighty Bear Manor is the perfect cabin to escape with your friends and family.

This custom-built magnificent estate is located in Castle Glen Estates which is the most prestigious area of Big Bear Lake. Equipped and decorated with quality cabin amenities, this 5,600 square foot log cabin provides open living spaces to share with family and numerous secluded nooks to escape. Mighty Bear Manor has 7 large bedrooms, each with a flat-panel TV and DVD. Three stories of luxury cabin entertainment that includes the following:

FIRST FLOOR-'Fishing and Hunting' themed game room with pool table, 54-inch HDTV plasma, 32-inch HDTV plasma, DVD, Nintendo Wii, Wii games, card table, dartboard, air hockey table, ping pong table, fireplace, a talking buck, and whimsical fishing and hunting decor. The first floor also offers a large private suite with two queen beds, walk-in closet, and a themed bathroom.

SECOND FLOOR- The 'Bear' themed main floor offers over 2600 square feet of living space that includes a great room with two-story tall ceilings and windows, a wood-burning fireplace, and four separate view decks with an additional 1000+ square feet of outdoor living each with inspiring 180-degree views. A 60-inch projection TV with a DVD player entertains the family in the living room.

The house is amazing. Lots of space, great views and a fun, rustic decor. Very comfortable, as well. My only complaint would be about the old, SD television in the main area.

The house was beautiful. Many activities nearby. The gameroom with the pool table, air hockey, ping pong table and lots of board games kept us all entertained at night, not to mention a soak in the hot tub after a long day exploring. We will definitely stay again.

Mighty Bear Manor - our Big Bear home!
Our huge family enjoyed this property so much. The property had so many rooms that we were able to have quiet time to ourselves when we wanted to relax & the common areas were also big enough to accomodate all of us when we wanted to be together. The place was equipped with everything we needed the whole weekend. I will cherish the memories we made at Mighty Bear Manor!

Over all had a great time at Mighty Bear Manor. The pictures doesn't do justice to how big this place really is. The game room was awesome with a pool table, dart board, ping pong, air hockey and lots of board games. I love cooking for a huge group so the kitchen being very spacious was a treat and helpful.

Great time
Was her for my brothers bachelor party. Had 10 grown men in one roof, we never left and never once felt like we didn’t have enough space. The house was 100 times bigger then I was expecting based off of the pictures. Definitely will be planning a family trip with the kids and cousins next year!

My Entire Family Enjoyed The Mighty Bear Manor !
It was the first time we were able to have our entire family in one home, everyone had their OWN ROOM ! The Mighty Bear Manor is close to the slopes. Everyone enjoyed the spa after a day on the slopes. The little kids enjoyed sledding in the fenced backyard. The Mighty Bear Manor is huge yet still warm and cozy ! We Will Be Back !

Beautiful views and great ammenities
We filled the cabin with family for grandpa's 90th birthday. Everyone, ages 2 to 90, had a great time! Lots of things to do. The place was very clean and well maintained. Near to markets and places to eat (1-2 miles). Locking garage door was tricky. Highly Recommend.

A great weekend get a away.
Our group more than enjoyed our stay at this cabin. Plenty of room and the pictures do not do this place justice. There was snow and on the side there is a slope that the kids were able to use to go sledding. The back yard is fenced which was perfect for our family dog. The location of this cabin is right near all the stores and restaurants, about 1-2 miles away. We are definitely going to be staying at this cabin again next year. The owners were easy to deal with and very accommodating.

60th Birthday celebration
Excellent experience. We got the family from Indiana together to celebrate my sisters 60th birthday. The cabin is beyond amazing. NEVER felt crowded or without something to entertain us. Lori is awesome too. She was there for us when we couldn't figure out the alarm and she was very friendly and helpful. Would recommend this beautiful home and hope to visit again.

Mighty Bear Manor- Excellent Rental!
We had a really great time at the Mighty Bear Manor. All of our guests were thoroughly impressed with the property, location, cleanliness and amenities. Lori, with WOW Rentals, was easily reached through text message for check-in and check-out time confirmation. Lori was nice, hospitable, and gave us a thorough walk-through at check-in. The hot tub on the deck was clean and well maintained. The home was gorgeous and the location was walking distance to Oktoberfest at the Big Bear Convention Center. The neighborhood was quiet and many people from our group enjoyed morning walks around the peaceful neighborhood.

Spacious House for A Big Family Gathering
We have many young kids. They just had a great fun with exploring the house. The house is stocked with games and toys. The only downside is that the master suite has no blinds and it faces east. I am not an early person, but the bright sunshine woke me up.

Beautiful Property
We live in SoCal and when our family came from the east coast we rented the house for 4 days. We had 12 people and there was an appropriate room for everyone from the the grade school kids, highschool, and college. We really enjoyed the game room and the beautiful deck on the second floor. The grill was great and we used it every night. The location was great with quick access to everything we needed. Very clean and well kept. I would love to go back in the winter. A really nice and fun family retreat!
