Snow removal services are supposed to arrive within 24 hours of any snowfall of more than 4+ inches to clear the driveway and a pathway to the main entrance. Snow removal companies cannot guarantee a specific time the property will be serviced. Therefore, guests may have to shovel a spot to park if they arrive before the snow removal company or if it snows during their stay. There have been times in more significant storms (2ft+ of snowfall) when snow removal can take longer. It doesn’t happen often, and our other guests have always been able to make it work. Just know that we are doing everything possible to get someone out there.

Please be aware that weather conditions can change rapidly, especially during winter. We are unable to honor last-minute cancellations due to weather/road conditions. Chains or 4WD/AWD vehicle requirements are often in effect to enter Big Bear Valley. Guests booking a stay in the winter should be prepared for the possibility of tire chains being necessary to travel to Big Bear. City officials and law enforcement enforce this requirement. We recommend arriving before dark; guests arriving late during winter may encounter icy roads and prolonged delays—𝗕𝗲 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮 𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝟭 𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿.
