Susan and Ken’s property provided everything we could have asked for. The kids enjoyed sledding and spending time outside. The adults loved the fact that we could watch them from the dining room :) our time spent here was definitely a good time! Thank you.

We have stayed at many great properties in Big Bear and this one is simply the best. The owners are so kind, helpful and attentive and the cabin is well appointed, spacious and comfortable. The property is a dream for kids and teens with lots of open space, a bunk house, an outdoor hot tub, and lots of forest and a creek to explore. Thank you Susan and Ken for all your help and advice and kindness to share your lovely home with us. We will definitely be back. Reem Harwell and family.

I want to take a minute to thank both Susan and Ken Huskey. My family of 16 stayed on their beautiful cabin over the Christmas weekend. The place is kept clean and organized. Whenever I needed something or had a question, I just had to text Ken and he was there to assist. Our experience was really nice and will be booking again! This place is is about family and defiantly highly recommended. Thanks again Susan and Ken!

The unnecessary comments that were made about my Latino father. My father happened to arrived in the middle of our tour of the cabin. He then introduced himself and that is when the owner went on to say that he’d be “checking his pockets for silver wear before he left” because he looked “sketchy.” Aside from that, property was as described.

We had a wonderful multi-family stay at Ken and Susan's beautiful home and property. These hosts were so gracious, helpful, and everything we needed for a great stay. Highly recommend this rental and will surely be back!

From start to finish, Susan and Ken were amazing. Courteous and thorough, and great communication. The property is a dream and our friends, family, and children all felt right at home. We made some amazing memories and will definitely be coming back.

I get that the owners need to protect their property from bad renters, but that shouldn't mean this behavior is acceptable. When answering emails the owner will be condescending and passive aggressive. If you try to clarify anything that is unclear about the listing, he will be rude. At check-in the owner threatened to sue us if we didn't follow the rules, so be ready for that. We did have the max amount of vehicles per the lease but were for charged excessive wear and tear to A GRAVEL DRIVEWAY! We cooked on the BBQ provided, which was filthy and smoked more than the smoker, and were charged a cleaning fee for that as well. We came inside at 10PM, we kept quiet with no loud music or outside shenanigans after 10PM, we cleaned the place well before leaving and for all of that it will cost us an extra $600. So, definitely stay here if you want to be watched by the 10+ cameras on property, watched by the neighbors, and watched by the property manager for anything they might be able to nickel and dime you over. You will feel uneasy the whole time you are here. You will be treated as if you are a bad renters prior to even setting foot on property.

We had a fantastic time at this location! Lots to do in the house, outside the house and in the surrounding area! Very close to the ski slopes and grocery stores. Fully stocked linens and kitchen cabinet. Ample seating for 13+. Kids loved the outside swing (adults took a ride too)! Badminton was fun for the kids. Great host! Beautiful house! Temperature controlled. Clean. Spacious interior. Lots of window views. Loved that the downstairs room could sleep 5. The 5th room is a bunkhouse that can sleep 4 and has its own bathroom. WiFi and internet for the TV in the main room. Wish we could have stayed longer!

When we arrived Ken the owner was there to greet and show us around the ranch we found it to be a sprawling ranch with a bunkhouse and about as private as you can get this is a place you don’t even have to leave to go play in the snow there are games and everything you will need to make memories of a lifetime .
It’s snowed very heavily why we where there that made it even more beautiful .
on our last day Ken got there early with a snowblower and made a road for us to get out he’s an awesome guy there just aren’t any people like him anymore
So a big thank you to Ken and Susan huskey looking forward to coming back

We loved staying at Fox Farm! We received a warm welcome from the owners, and it feels like home the moment you set foot inside. There was never a need for us to leave with so many activities available on the property. We made some good memories here and would definitely visit again!

What a wonderful treat this property was with so much space to explore, enjoy and appreciate.
The home was definitely set up to accommodate a lot of people for a big family/friend gathering, but could have also comfortably accommodate a smaller group with the way the rooms were set up with additional bedding options available if needed.
Great home, incredible property and wonderful hosts! Everyone loved our time enjoying this incredible property! Thank you!

Susan and Ken's family ranch is a beautiful gem of a property to have a nice small gathering with family or friends. It has a warm, welcoming feel and really gives you a feeling of natural wilderness while still being right near the town center of Big Bear Lake. Susan and Ken were easy to communicate with and the amenities provided were top notch. My group had an amazing time staying there while on getaway from city living and would highly recommend this rental.

We loved this property. Susan and Ken were super nice and easy to work with. The house felt like coming to visit your grandmas house it was so warm and inviting. My three year old was obsessed with the bears everywhere and my older kids absolutely loved the outside space. Many badminton tournaments were played and the swing was a huge hit. We already are thinking about when we can go back. This place is a total gem!

The "Ranch" Everything you ever needed was right at your fingertips. Our family had a great time. Plenty of room for all. The out doors surrounding the property is awesome. And all the amenities they offer. Thank you to the Huskey's family we will be back...
