“Cathy's Cottages presents a different spin on the typical Big Bear stay with its individual cabins; the kitchens are a real plus for longer visits. Though slightly removed from the main village attractions, the value is undeniable. I think the fireplaces and hot tubs definitely amplify the cozy, romantic feel that many seek in a mountain getaway.”
