Great Place...But
Overall the house was nice, great location lots of room and we had a great weekend. It was the little things that were frustrating. The master shower didn't work, poorly equipped kitchen, no oven mitts etc. Very hot upstairs and very cold in the first-floor bedrooms.

Good For Large Group
The home we rented for a family reunion worked out well. It was plenty large enough with a great deck. The location is ideal, almost on the water at Boulder Bay, had the lake not been down. I found the check-in process with Wow Rentals a challenge since their office is closed on Sunday and they were not easy to get hold of. But once that got sorted out all was good. I recommend this property to anyone wanting a larger home near the water but not in the busy part of Big Bear.

Property is in need of desperate maintenance
This was our second year staying at this property for the fourth of July. Our first year at this property was amazing. This trip we found the property requiring maintenance with several issues. Our first immediate observation was the enormous about of bird poop all over the front and side of the house and along the walkways. Looking up and under the house's eves there were several birds nest. Upon entering the kitchen we were greeted with a side that said "oven not working" I wished we would have been notified prior to arrival to allow us to change our planned dinner menu for the 4 days we stayed there. Next, the dishwasher did not work. and most of the dishes in the cabinets were dirty. The screens on the windows were too small, when we open the windows the screens would fall off. The dryer did not heat up to dry you clothing. The jacuzzi was dirty and did not heat. The rug in the living room was so filthy and sticky it turned your feet black. No broom in the property to allow us to sweep the kitchen. Such a shame, we loved the home last year.

Long weekend getaway!
House was beautiful true to what is shown in the pictures online. Spacious and great location right on the lake. Only area that could be better maintained was the patio. All the furniture was covered in bird poop and all chair cushions were filthy. Also the bed in the bedroom downstairs is very uncomfortable. Other than that we had an amazing stay and loved the property. I would definitely stay here again!

My mom’s 50th bday!
This property was absolutely amazing! The photos online don’t do it justice! Modern appliances/tech, plenty of extra blankets/pillows etc, gorgeous area, private, cozy. The hosts allowed us to check in early which was great and their promptly and friendly communications were so reassuring. I really like wowrentals and will try my best to rent with them again in the future. The only tiny flaw was when we were wiping down the banisters for covid, the wipes came out pretty dark and dirty, though it didn’t initially look or feel grimy. A little off putting but in the grand scheme, this place is five stars!

Beautiful home
It was a really nice house. However, we had issues with the water. Our water was cold most of the time when we tried to take showers. The house can get extremely hot so we had to open the windows for air. Nonetheless, we had good communication with the property management with trying to fix any issue.

Tired & Neglected Home
The home was nothing like the video online. The property had all kinds of issues (we developed a list!). It was filthy- the living carpet needed cleaning- the sofa needed cleaning- the outdoor patio cushions were dirty, stained & torn. There was a broken patio chair (we almost fell over on.). No closet in the main bedroom suite- cracked wine glasses. Broken untensil basket in dishwasher, many other issues!

Weekend of june 26th
Property was beautiful with lots of room for our group of 11 to spread out. Their maximum occupancy is 14 which i think would be a bit tight imo. Kitchen was well stocked and clean, 2 of the 3 ovens did not work however. There was no air conditioning in the house which was ok in most of the house except the 3rd floor which had 3 of the 5 bedrooms including the master . This level was unbearably hot and had little air circulation. It cooled down last night we were there so was fine. We might have just gotten unlucky with unexpected high temps. Overall it is a nice house, mins walking distance from the lake.
