Big Bear Cabin Suggestions

[DAYTONA_R/T]

I am looking at heading to big bear for a get-a-way the 19th-23 of this month.

I have been looking online at cabin rentals, and was wondering if anyone here has any recommendations. I hate going strictly off pictures posted online.

There will only be 2 of us, so don't need to find a huge log cabin, even a studio would work, but don't want to pay a grand for 4 nights in a place that's falling apart, and be in for a surprise when we pull up.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions on places to stay or avoid.

Thats a good site, lots of people that rent out their personal cabins...

OR you can try a resort company... lots of those up there too...

Companies that take large huge cabins and break them down into 4-10 smaller hotel room style cabins.. some have hot tubs on the deck etc...

I will be up there this weekend too!!! of course my buddy has a cabin that he and his parents built... but i will keep an eye out for some LXers...

ok, like most LXer's in the south, putting winter tires on means getting out the drag slicks....
(no I do not own drag slicks)

I am currently running Toyo Proxes S/T tires on the Daytona... I am not going to get snow tires for the sake of one week.

Do you think I can make it up to big bear (and back down) in a Daytona without snow tires with the weather out there right now, or should I just rent a truck? (renting a truck is still cheaper than buying tires).

I am the biggest advocate out there for having the proper tires in the winter, but for 5 days, I really don't want to fork out the money for snow tires that will never see the light of day after this trip.
