Getaway Escape House in Big Bear

My husband and I were looking for a getaway in the nature and I came across Postcard Cabins Big Bear and next things I know we have been there twice in six weeks! First of all the cabin was really tiny even for just the two of us but it was very cozy. Everything was clean and pretty much everything you need in that space. One night stayed came with 3 wood bundles and a few starters which is enough through the whole dinner time.We didn’t use kitchen inside the cabin at all.First time we cooked a steak on the bonfire and the second time I brought pre made food from home and just reheat it on the bonfire.Keep in mind,If you wanna grill anything on the fire you have to used Tinfoil and do not cook your meat directly on the grilled.(I think it was written somewhere) Inside cabin they provided an electric stove top,Plates and all kitchen utensils including dish soap and sponge. Both my husband and I have cell phone service just fine (Verizon) but when you’re surrounded with that beautiful nature just leave your phone in the cellphone lockbox and forget about it (Just don’t forget it when you check out) There were 2 electrical outlets that I saw so far inside the cabins.One was by the bed or by the dining table (Depend on which cabins you got) and another one next to toilet in the bathroom.Was it convenience? Not really but it’s doable for us. Water pressure was good but used water one thing at the time.No sink and shower in the same time. There was no mirror or bathroom sink whatsoever,so get a lil creative of How you would put make up on or brush your teeth. Each cabins have there own individual parking,So don’t worried about it. On the second visited there was cute deers walked by really close to our cabins.Love that! Customer service were great! Basically anything you need or any questions just text them. There was no front desk to check in or out.Before 4 pm which is check in time they will texted you the code and the instructions and then before check out time they will text you another code for check out.Easy and convenience. We can’t wait to go back for the third time,Hopefully we can make it happen soon!

We just finished a getaway to Postcard Big Bear. I do not understand some of these reviews. This place is absolutely perfect. The bed was so comfortable, the views were perfect. We were visited by a handful of deer every day. Each day the staff will bring you more snacks, water and firewood. All communication is through text which is very convenient. Our dog had the time of his life. Let’s be real, all hotels have pet fees and they are excessive. The pet fee here was only $50 for the entire stay, not per night. That is very reasonable. We cannot wait to come back. My husband just came back from a 10 month combat deployment and this was the best place to slow down and enjoy being home again. Other reviews mentioned the snack not being free, everything in the room and firewood IS free, it’s part of the nightly destination fee. They may not have been free when it was the previous company, but it’s now a Marriott property. No WiFi, but we had great service with T-mobile.

Originally had a campground but made a last minute pivot. These are beautiful and the location is super quiet and there are some amazing views. Our cabin was super clean and they stock it with snacks, coffee and little s’mores kits! So peaceful and relaxing. This was a lucky find for my son and I as we soon complete our Chicago to Santa Monica Route 66 trip.

Incredible view! When we got there, our code didn’t work to open the door. We texted the service number and immediately received an apology as well as a new code to try that did work. We were provide more firewood than we needed. The bed was comfortable and the tiny cabin was darling.

Well the good old "getaway" is gone for sure. I visited here from time to time but it was before the Marriott take over. Since Marriott has taken over they are on a budget or something. They have poor overall service, accommodation, and just clear money grab for the location only. Simple cooking essentials thay used to provide like salt and pepper, olive oil, aluminum foil, etc. are now missing. So you have to come more prepared. They now charge for destination fee that includes firewood, but I asked for additional firewood but they will only refill when the restock guys go around and only if I am onsite.. but I waited for hours just sitting there and likely they missed me or I would have to wait longer for them to come around. They can't just come and restock on their own. Just the system sounds so inconvenient and stingy. I would have just brought my own firewood and not pay for destination fee if their service is like this. In which case in the past I only used their firewood if I really needed it. For the cost of staying oer night, it is not worth it anymore.
