Big Trees Estate

I brought the whole extended family (10 in total) for a long weekend in the snow. Despite there being no precipitation for the month prior to our visit, there was still snow on the ground and Bear Valley is right up the road. The house was very comfortable for all of us, clean, with all amenities as described. The wood stoves kept the house nice and warm (once we got them going :). I would definitely recommend Big Trees Estate for a great family getaway!!

I hate writing bad reviews! With that said I want to start with the positives. The size of the house it accommodating for a large family and we loved the living area space. The location was also perfect with privacy and tons of parking. Alright, here we go....the house was filthy! Mouse droppings under the kitchen sink and cabinets under stove. Microwave did not work, even following the detailed directions. Dust was everywhere! We were able to write messages in the dust surfaces. Upstairs bathroom was just weird. I would suggest a door/ curtain to block the dungeon utility room. Don’t get me started on the mold in the shower and the dirt in the sauna that is broken. Sheets were ripped for one of the upstairs bedrooms. The outdoors was beautiful but could not hang out there due to a hornet problem. We noticed the traps were all full, so we purchased new ones and hung it ourselves. We rent homes all the time and this by far was the dirtiest. We are very familiar with the area and come up at least 4 times a year. I will never rent from Dorrington Reality again. Sorry

Beautiful view my grandchildren played all day in the snow and didn’t have to worry about them. We would rent again

Large home with plenty of space for 3 families to get together,beautiful setting with very relaxing deck to enjoy the outdoors

This was a great place for our 4 day vacation. A little hard to find at night, and outdated, but kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed. VHS movies for kids, WiFi worked, some beds less comfortable than others, but all adequate sleeping arrangements for our 6 adult, 6 kid family. Wood burning stoves worked well with some time to figure them out and space heaters decent secondary heaters for individual rooms. There’s some sledding space and the driveway was fun when it got snow. NOT childproof for toddlers.
