About this apartment rental

Well-stocked cozy condo with everything a family or group needs for blissful days and fun game and movie nights filled with fun!

2-minute walk to ski shuttle.

Caring owner and in-town help just a text/call away!

Cleaning option: Cleaning and linens provided (just message owner in advance to arrange) -- OR save $150 and self-clean and provide your own linens.

This condo sits in the sweet spot of Bear Valley: Just across the street from the lodges, shops and the shuttle that takes skiers and snowboarders and sledders to the ski resort.

Just 5 minutes from Lake Alpine and four other high alpine lakes and rivers with world-class fishing. Hiking trails just up the road.

2 minute walk across the street to the ski shuttle!

Don't get stuck driving to the ski shuttle or resort from all the other condos in Bear Valley 30-45 minutes (each way!) up the hill from Arnold, or Dorrington each day!

This condo is perfect for family-time!

The condo has WiFi, a flat-screen TV, DirectTV, an HDMI cable so that you can stream from your laptop to the TV and a landline.

(There's also WiFi across the street in Bear Valley Lodge's brand new lounge with its 4-story stone fireplace -- all visitors welcome.)

Games galore! Uno, Farkle, Backgammon, Battleship, Slamwich, Sorry, Connect4, and more!

Outdoor patio has a gate and access to a horseshoe pit. Wander the lovely pine grove and condo-area grounds or just enjoy your morning coffee sitting on a sun-warmed boulder (snow conditions permitting).

On the other side of the condo buildings, enjoy benches, and the perfect spot for snowman-making and sledding in winter, and hanging out in summer.

Cooking is a breeze! Whip up breakfast or apres ski brownies in fully equipped kitchen. It's small but mighty: Full-size microwave, stove, oven, coffee maker, electric kettle, blender, toaster and every utensil, cooking device or dish you could imagine is provided.

Or enjoy one of the restaurants in the lodge.

Just down the street from the biggest (and most beautiful) X-country ski area in California!

TWO Sno-parks within five miles!!

Bring your favorite family games or your laptop with your favorite family movies (there's a flat-screen TV and HDMI to link your laptop to it) and snuggle in for evenings of warmth and comfort after some great days on the slopes.

Bring your X-C, downhill skiing, sledding or hiking, kayaking, cycling, and fishing stuff and your own linens (sheets and bath and kitchen towels) and have the weekend of your lives!

$600 monthly rate (off-season, April 15-November 15 for lease of several months). Ski season or winter-month leases also available.

Questions? Message me -- I'm always happy to help!

I look forward to hosting you!

Warmly,
DeAnne

The information/instructions sent to us were very detailed and accurate. The kitchen has many useful items, which makes it super easy to fix meals, etc. The host was very responsive and thorough in her communication. The onsite property manager is also very helpful. Rick does an awesome job with plowing the snow and keeping the parking easy and accessible. Overall we had a great experience. The place is right opposite the lodge and general store.

We stayed here in the summer (June) and just needed a place for one night while on a bike tour. DeAnne's self cleaning option was great for us as all other properties required a hefty cleaning fee even for 1-2 nights! Normally sheets are BYO, but DeAnne provided sheets for us as we couldn't carry them while biking. The unit itself is small but comfortable and cozy. We didn't cook, but the unit had plenty of kitchen utensils, etc. Wifi was good. DeAnne was prompt with contacts and refunded our cleaning deposit with no issues. Would recommend for a reasonable place to stay at BV!

Perfect location. Our family of four was very comfortable. It ended up raining while we were there but we were very entertained and cozy inside. There were games and movies. The kitchen had everything we needed. The host was extremely flexible and accommodating. Very good communication. The cleaning instructions were very easy and common sense stuff. Got my deposit back very quickly. We would love to return during the winter and other seasons. Looking forward to more Bear Valley adventures here in the future.

It's all about the location, and the location doesn't disappoint - you're a couple minutes walk from the Bear Valley shuttle bus that brings you to the slopes in less than 10 minutes, and you can actually ski down from the top of the mountain right to your accommodation (ok, you'll still need to walk a couple hundred feet). Inside - it's all pretty basic, and very compact, but our family of 5 fit in just fine for a week. Cooking is not too easy, but there are a couple of restaurants in the lodge. Our cleaning fee was waived, because I did the clean up myself, which was pretty easy with the detailed instructions provided by DeAnne. We would definitely come again!

Very convenient location, we enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately, although we left the property cleaner than we found it, the host was not convinced by our photos and was not open to discussing and was quite disrespectful in their communications. It might be helpful to take pictures of the place as soon as you get there so you avoid any issues with the host.

We had a great stay here: the location can't be beat for doing anything in Bear Valley, and the triple bunkbed was a huge hit with the youngest part of our family :). Huge thank you to the host for a wonderful weekend!

Winter wonderland

Winter wonderland

We had a great time at Deanne’s place. It was extremely clean, very well stocked in terms of all paper goods, cleaning supplies, and cooking utensils. It is very well located; across the street from the lodge and shuttle stop. Rick did an amazing job keeping the parking and pathways clear of snow and safe and available for the condo guests. No small feat as the days we stayed at Bear Valley saw the most December snow ever and over the holiday week too. Things I wish I knew: turn the heater and the gas stove all the way down at night, the first night I only turned the thermostat down to 60 and it was too toasty to sleep, the outlet that the tall skinny floor lamp near the dining room table is plugged into is a switched outlet. Important if you have phones plugged in. And (although this is super clear in the listing as pointed out by my partner and daughters once we got there) this condo is a large 1 room studio. It works well for 4 however and the lodge across the street has a large and very cool great room with a fireplace if you want to get away. Also, if it was not so snowy, the large deck would have been a great additional space. All in all a very nice place to stay.

Location can’t be beat!

Condo was exactly as described. The location could not be any better. I have this 5 star as it was suitable, exactly as described, and met our family’s needs perfectly. The condo could use updating overall, but that is the case with most of the condos here in BV. We would definitely stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two day stay at the condo. It was very conveniently located, a few minute walk to the Bear Valley Cross Country resort and tubing/ sledding. The condo was clean and had all the necessary things to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. We will definitely stay there again and will recommend it to others. Thank you DeAnne for making our stay enjoyable.

Small but great location

Small but great location

The condo was in a great location directly across the Bear Valley Lodge. It was nice to have three restaurants right across the street at the lodge. Shuttle service took you to the Bear Valley ski resort in 10 minutes which was really convenient. The condo was small and very basic. The cabin needs updating. My son sat in a dining room chair and the back of it broke. I was afraid to make coffee because the coffee maker was loose from its holder. I was afraid to touch anything for fear it would break. It was nice of the condo owner to not charge a cleaning fee of $150 like most rentals. She gave a long list of items that should be cleaned which was more than manageable due to the small size of the condo. I would recommend this place to someone who was on a tight budget.

Clean, Functional, but not pretty

Clean, Functional, but not pretty

Good location. Easy to find. Owner was responsive, and returned deposit quickly. Clean. Functional: heat, wifi, stove, satellite tv, and everything worked well. Plenty of bed covers and lots of little accessories. Double beds were comfortable. Lower bunks of triple bunk bed might be claustrophobic for some people. We rented at the end of the ski season. The condo is on the ground floor. The only window in the condo looks out on the deck. But apparently to prevent slow sliding off the roof onto the deck, plywood sheets were erected which blocked most of the light. Quite a bit of snow was piled against the plywood. We would have given it 5 stars but for the lack of a functional window. But during the summer the window would be fine. Renters are responsible for cleaning the condo, and the owner provides a detailed list of items to be cleaned. All cleaning supplies are provided. We enjoyed the stay.

Another great Christmas vacation in the Bear Valley village

Another great Christmas vacation in the Bear Valley village

This is our second time staying at DeAnne's place. We enjoyed our stay very much. The new bed is a welcome touch. The room is perfect for a family of 4. Very warm and toasty. The location is great, walking distances to ski shuttle, Bear Valley Lodge and cross country ski. There was a little incident with the lock, but everyone, from the condo management to the host, were very helpful, and problem got resolved right away. Will stay again next year.
