Lovely, comfortable, clean home
This was our second stay at the Dancing Bear Chalet. We really enjoy the large deck with the comfortable chairs, the gorgeous view onto pine trees, the big kitchen, and the fireplace with the gas log lighter. The house is in lovely location, in a very quiet neighborhood, surrounded by pines and cedars. It is very clean and comfortable. There are no stairs upon entering the house, which is great for loading and unloading luggage and fire wood. There are 2 full bathrooms - one upstairs and one downstairs. The tubs in both have a safety bar and the bathrooms have a timer heat lamp. The 2 king bed bedrooms are upstairs. Both are large rooms. The living room furniture is very comfortable. Shopping and Lake Arrowhead Village are close by. It’s a great rental home for a getaway in the mountains, and we have already booked our stay there for fall 2025.

Nice Stay
The house was clean upon arrival and nicely furnished. The upstairs bedrooms are good sized. The kitchen had most of what we needed. Downstairs bathroom appears to be updated and had better water pressure than the upstairs one. The outside deck has a nice view into the trees and is large. Some kind of repair needed for a covered hole there, but no problems with it. Location is just a short drive to the Village. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would consider for our next trip to the lake. High praise for the management company (Vacasa) that stayed in touch with us prior to arrival and while we were there. Thumbs up!

Family Flores Getaway
We planned for a mini vacation at Lake Arrowhead instead of Big Bear for a change. It was a relaxing, fun, and adventurous time. We visited the Lake Arrowhead Village and took the Ferry. It was a Beautiful experience. We also shopped and bought duck food from the Beautiful art gallery to feed the ducks at the lake! Thank you for our stay! We are definitely returning!!

This property was a great overall value for anyone that wants to stay in the Arrowhead area. The house is cozy and it has a lot of nice family games, puzzles and DVD's to enjoy. Carpet could probably be replaced but that is to be expected from a pet friendly location. Overall recommended and for the value you can't beat it.

Great stay in a very comfortable cabin
We stayed at this property for 4 nights in October and loved it. It’s probably the most comfortable home we ever rented. The things we loved: The deck, beautiful view from the deck, and the deck was dog-proofed (no danger of our little poodle getting out); great kitchen with the prettiest dishes; super comfy electric reclining sofa; 2 roomy bedrooms with king-size beds (we had a choice where to sleep); big fireplace with gas loglighter; large TV & DVD player. There is no cable/streaming service but we had brought DVDs with us and enjoyed some of our favorite films. The home was very clean, a little off the road, easy to locate even in the dark which is when we arrived. The location is great, in a quiet neighborhood within 5 minutes from the Blue Jay area (grocery store & fast food) and 10-15 minutes from Lake Arrowhead Village. The one improvement we would recommend is a larger coffeemaker that makes more than 2 cups of coffee. We really enjoyed staying in this home and plan to rent it again for our annual fall getaway.

Peace and Quiet
We were happy with our stay in this little home in the mountains. The view from the deck was wonderful! The place was clean but it did have some spots on the carpet and a little smell. The screen on the bathroom window on the bottom floor needs to be replaced because it has been broken. The patio blinds are also needing repair. Also, the can opener was broken. There is a patio chair on the deck that needs to be replaced and the deck could use a touch up of cleaning. The support team and management were excellent. They were quick to respond and very friendly. This was close to the golf course which was perfect for me! I will probably return to this home again. ~J

Dancing Bear Chalet Excellence!
We just stayed at the Dancing Bear Chalet for four days and it was a fantastic place. It was very clean upon our arrival and all the basics were provided. The back deck had plenty of room to bbq and to play corn hole, which we brought. It allows dogs, so we brought one and she was super happy with the accommodations, too. It was very comfortable, too. Felt like our home away from home. The only complaint I would have, but not really a complaint is that it didn't have cable, satellite or any stream platforms available. We took our own laptop to watch those. All-in-all, it was fantastic!

Comfortable stay
The house is exactly as listed and pictures are accurate. We had a comfortable stay for 2 nights. Beds are pretty comfortable. Be aware that there is not central air if you are coming during the summer but we stayed cool enough with the windows open and ceiling fans on. We were a little bummed there was no coffee available but everything else we needed to make dinner and breakfast for 2 days was there. The house was pretty clean.. although the table was a little dirty and because it is a dog friendly house, there was a bit of a dog/urine smell. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Lovely cabin, just description inaccurate
The property is great, however several points in the listing were off: - 3 bedrooms, not 2 (great!) - wood fireplace, not gas (so we weren’t prepared) - TV only has connectivity to a DVD player and a VHS (not kidding) player. Not a “smart” TV so bring a Roku or Fire stick if you want to stream via wireless network. Aside from that, it’s a beautiful cabin and we had a great time!

Quaint and Quiet Charmer
We enjoyed this home. The kitchen had all the amenities to prepare home cooked meals. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck. The WiFi was great. We connected our computer to the TV and watched streaming television using our provider. The soaps in the bathroom and hotel grade towels were a nice touch. The one small downside was that the hot water ran out after a few showers. If guests space their showers further apart that should not be a problem.
