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

Welcome to Mighty Bear Manor, an AvantStay home!

A magnificent estate with custom cabin craftsmanship that creates a feeling that you are away in a place truly unique and distant from your day-to-day grind. 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.

Beautiful & great location
We rented this gorgeous property for my immediate family, my 3 sisters families & our mom. Wonderful experience!! Our 8 kids range in age from 9-18 and there was plenty to do for all ages. They were bummed that the air hockey table didn't have a puck and the dart board darts were broken but they played a ton a ping pong, foosball & twister. We also brought a bunch of games with us. The only reason I gave a 4 for cleanliness was that some of the baking sheets weren't clean and I'm sure that was from previous renters since they were put away in the drawer. Everything else was very clean! Also, with 16 people in the cabin, not having locks on the bathrooms was concerning. When I called the management company, they responded immediately. When I emailed it was a day or two. I didn't think the broken games were a big deal so I didn't call about them. All in all, it was an amazing time and such a beautiful cabin! The views were incredible and it was so nice having everyone together. The kids will remember this trip forever and we are all so much closer because of it. I highly recommend this cabin!

Seven bdrms fit our family gathering well. Plenty of room for everyone. Fenced backyard for our two dogs. Four car garage. Plenty of storage and drawer space. Dislikes: Dirty oven, toaster oven, windows. BBQ inoperative (but was replaced immediately). 3-levels w/lots of stairs. Cushions on patio chairs worn out. Lack of glasses (purchased and left 12 wine glasses. Lacking dining room chairs for a large group. Property needs upgrade. Grab bars in bathrooms. Avant CS was excellent.

There's plenty of parking space. I wish they allowed more than 4 cars. This made our carpool situation a little difficult. Otherwise, the location was quiet. Plenty of room Very! Very close (8-15min) from major snowboarding locations.

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.

Big Bear Manor
Overall it was an amazing place. It us huge and we found ourselves getting lost often. The driveway is massive and the garage can house at about 4 cars. The kitchen is very well stocked and they even have 3 crock pots! The living room was great and had lots of seating for everyone from our party. Check in was a breeze and communication with the rental office was perfect. There were a few concerns but not deal breakers. The hot tub had a mind if its own and would change jet speeds by itself. The beds were not that comfortable they were leaning towards the firm side. One of the stove burners did not ignite so it was annoying to have to turn it on with a lighter. Overall great stay and great location in Big Bear.

Annual Family Weekend
We all enjoyed our stay in Mighty Bear Manor very much. Our family of 12, 8 adults and 4 children, found the cabin to be plenty big with plenty of room for the grandchildren to play. Everyone enjoyed the many levels and the various amenities. The pool table, shuffle board and air hockey were a big hit. There was ample room for everyone to find a quiet spot if needed. We really like the Castle Glenn neighborhood being close to grocery stores, the lake and the Village. Everyone agreed they would love to stay in this cabin again.
