Make a memorable alpine summer or ski trip with family and friends. This spacious 5,000+ square foot custom log home is one of a kind--referred to by the local community as 'The Lodge'. Features include a private outdoor jacuzzi spa, pool table, darts, ping pong, foosball, 5 bicycles, computer w/printer, Smart TVs, Netflix, 50+ movies on AppleTV, and Sonos sound system throughout.

Sleeping Arrangements for 16 (12 adults + 4 kids): 2nd floor Master Suite with a King and attached full bath; 3rd floor Master Bedroom with a King and attached full bath; 3rd floor Bedroom with a queen; 3rd floor bunk bedroom with a bunk bed, trundle and two sofa pullout singles; 3rd floor loft with two twins; 1st floor Gameroom serves also as a bedroom to sleep 4 with a full sofa pullout, a queen bed, and attached full bath.

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. Accent landscape lamps blazon the towering pines extending a cathedral like experience while you sit, soak and indulge in your favorite beverage.

Stream your own music through a 5 point speaker sound system by Sonos. 4 TVs (2 Smart TVs with AppleTV). 5 Bicycles on site. Generous supply of firewood ($10/nt.). 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-2024-0824 Expiration 6/7/25.

Excellent experience
We celebrated a birthday at this property. It was spacious and had everything the listing noted. One note: if traveling in the winter, be sure to review instructions for heater to make sure the main floor gets heat! We didn’t and were cold the first night but that was on us for not taking a look at the instructions! Martin was a wonderful host and communicated very well and quickly….we would rent this property again in the future.

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.

Stunning Property
Exactly what I had hoped for after seeing this listing! Beautiful view, large open space and kitchen equipped with everything you would possibly need. Beds were comfortable and hot water at all times with a group of 16. Streets are maintained quickly when it snows and neighborhood is very safe and quiet. Host is extremely responsive and genuinely cares that you enjoy your stay! Very professionally maintained property.

Spacious Stay
A group of 16 women (coming in from all areas; CA, MA, TX) stayed at this spacious and beautiful property in Big Bear. The house accommodated all of us with ease; everyone had a spot to sleep, enough room to spread out, and gather. Martin was an excellent host and communication was quick and easy. I would absolutely recommend booking this property to anyone who would like to spread out and relax with a big group of people. It was truly wonderful and special! Thank you Martin and VRBO

Perfect Family Get together
This property exceeded expectations. We (grandparents), our two children, spouses and their young children had the perfect mix of large central living space for gathering and games with separate sleeping quarters for each family. The space is beautiful beyond what the photos show - both indoor and outdoor gathering spots and beautiful natural hiking paths right outside the back deck. It was immaculately clean and SAFE (lots of stairs but thick carpet throughout, rounded table edges so toddlers could toddle all over without a single bump!) Easy drive to lake and town. Loved every minute. Thank you, Martin!

We LOVED Castle Glen Estates
We have stayed at a few places in Big Bear and decided to bring our 4 kids, spouses and granddaughters for my son's 30th birthday. We will most definitely be coming back next year. The large beautiful home was even better than the photos! It was clean and so comfortable. It was really helpful that it came stocked with everything you need. We were there for 4 nights and we didn't have to purchase any extra essentials. Plenty of towels and soft blankets. We were able to sled out in the backyard everyday which was a huge plus for us with little ones. The host was so helpful and answered any questions we had very quickly. It's so close to town and groceries are just a mile away. We have nothing but good things to say about this VRBO except I wish we had stayed longer!

Big House
We had a fun time in Big Bear and at Martin's home. The location is very close to everything. I did email Martin a shortlist of things we felt should be taken care of to elevate the home amenities. It included new and more fans (no ac), misssing window screen (could not open window in the hottest upstairs kids room to cool it down), new game equipment for ping pong, darts, ect.. and the foosball was not missing. Martin is very nice and these small things did not ruin our trip at all. If you have kids the Magic Mountain Alpine Slide park is fun if you have time.

The most fabulous property in Big Bear!
Everything from the communication of the owner to the property with all of its beauty, charm, luxury, and tasteful decorations made for a fantastic trip. We were a group of 7 and we all found time to take advantage of each and every floor and room. The rumpus room kept us occupied for hours while others chose to read and gaze at the views from the third floor onto the mountains. In the living room area we had a roaring fire and gathered for games and hot chocolate. The kitchen had everything we needed to make a pre Thanksgiving dinner. It really had something for everyone with style and luxury but relaxing comfort. This is the place to stay in Big Bear! Close to all yet private and a lovely mountain trail behind home for romantic walks and just steps away from the breathtaking Lake views. Thank you again Martin for opening up your home.

Excellent Stay!
This is the second time we have stayed at this beautiful home and I'm sure we will return again. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook full meals. Bedrooms are spacious and the beds and sheets are very comfortable. The downstairs game room is set-up like almost like a separate apartment with a large restroom and a separate entrance into the house which is great if you are traveling with older kids or separate families. The location of the house is great! Very close to the grocery stores, but secluded enough so you don't hear any cars or neighborhood traffic. There are two washers and dryers available to use which comes in handy if you are hosting a larger group. The second fridge in the garage is very convenient so you can have a separate fridge for drinks and food. The porch that runs along the front of the house is great and perfect for relaxing in the mornings and evenings. Martin is WONDERFUL to deal with and always responds right away if there are ever any questions or concerns. The check-in process is the easiest I've ever experienced in all of the years I've been renting homes in Big Bear. Thank you for everything!

Spectacular
This property was simply amazing. Very spacious, clean, very warm and welcoming. Plenty of amenities in the kitchen, two refrigerator/ freezers, lots of space if you're the sort to bring and prepare your own meals. Great insulation- daytime stayed cool and the nights kept warm (this was a summer rental). Games galore, with a massive rumpus room and even a poker table (flipped over from the kitchen nook table). Jacuzzi was well kept, the barbecue sizzled, appliances and accouterments worked like clockwork. Centrally located, the Villa seemed both isolated and part a community. Great little hike from the backyard to some spectacular views of the lake. Five minutes to grocery stores, less than two minutes to get gas and convenience store items. Rode the provided bikes to the lake in less than four minutes (the ride back was uphill, so took an understandable bit longer). Martin, the host, was fantastic. I contacted him many times before our stay, and he was prompt, gracious and detail-oriented in his replies. I wholeheartedly recommend this property. From stem to stern, this was an experience to remember.

Beautiful Home with a Few Exceptions
This home is gorgeous and easily accommodated our 4 families. We loved the ambience and the neighborhood. Two reasons for giving 4-stars, not 5-stars: 1. Each night we saw a mouse which was unsettling to some in our party. 2. In all the info we received about the home, it said they provided courtesy bottles of shampoo, conditioner, soap, etc. Yet, this home did not have even a single bar of soap in any of it's 4 bathrooms. This was super annoying as several of us didn't pack shampoo because we read this info. Also, they asked that we start a load of towels in the washing machine before leaving. We loaded all the towels only to find that there wasn't any laundry soap anywhere. The house was also nearly completely out of dish soap. For a $600/night, luxury home, these items should be standard and abundant. All in all, we would more than likely return again. We loved the house and would just need to buy some mouse traps and bring lots of soap with us if we return.

Birthday Celebration
The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The extra refrigerator in the garage very useful for all the food we brought with us. The living room was perfect for all of us to sit around the great fireplace. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed our weekend there. We did have difficulty figuring out the TV's. More detailed instructions would have been helpful. We had a few football fans that needed to watch games, the rest of us were fine without the TV's. Overall this was a beautiful house and met all our expectations.
