Other Details to Note
OPTIONAL daily amenity passes ($10 /day /per person 2+ yrs or older). We recommend you purchase them on a daily basis at the Community Office because there are no refunds for inclement weather. Amenity passes are required for: pools, lake/beach, fitness center, mini golf and horse stables. All assigned passes must be returned before departing in order to avoid a $10 per pass replacement fee.
We have a large driveway however guests can only park a maximum of 4 cars at night. This is mandated by our Community rules and Township ordinance. No street parking.
There is no central air conditioning however, there's one powerful unit for the main floor open space, a window unit in each bedroom and ceiling fans in each room. Open windows often works wonders due to the breeze coming from the pond.
For security reasons, there are two exterior security cameras: one above the front staircase pointing at the driveway and the doorbell next to the front door.
For the indoor fireplace and outdoor firepit, we supply a limited amount of wood based on your stay. Please note that local fire bans can be mandated by our local fire dept. We will inform you ahead of time if applicable.

Bernard & Meryl’s place is a lovely mountain retreat. It’s well appointed and very clean. We used the community amenities to make it a one stop family vacation. Our group appreciated the space especially the great room to be together while cooking and relaxing and the kids loved the game room and nook. Highly recommend

Book this place now!! Masthope Mountain Guesthouse was exactly what we were looking for. The house was perfect for our family of 5 and could easily and comfortably fit a few more if needed. The beds and bedding were so comfortable, the kitchen was completely stocked with anything and everything you would need to cook any meal you’d like, an open floor plan on the main floor so we could all be together when cooking, watching tv, etc. and a beautiful finished lower level with another tv, ping pong table, board games, and dart board that was perfect if you wanted a little separation. My kids played ping pong the whole time and we all had a few really fun and intense ping pong tournaments as a family.
The house was close to all of the amenities, pool, lake, fitness center and more. We spent 2 days at the pool and my kids had a blast on the water slides. We spent another evening at the lake fishing and relaxing. It was a perfect vacation.

We had a wonderful stay! The space was spotless and well-maintained, with high-quality items throughout. The host was incredibly responsive—truly amazing. When our son fell sick, we had to request a date change, and they kindly accommodated us. That gesture meant a lot, as it allowed us to still take the vacation we were looking forward to. The location is fantastic, with plenty of fun activities nearby. Highly recommended!

Me and my family had a great weekend getaway at Bernard’s. He was very friendly, informative, and communicated everything before and during our stay. The views from back deck was stunning. Would recommend.

Our group (consisting of adults, teenagers and some under 10s) really enjoyed our stay at Bernard’s place.
It was as described in the posting and was clean and clutter free. The house had plenty of entertainment (ping pong, foosball, board games, kids nook) and the kitchen/bathroom also had some of the essentials that we didn’t have to worry about (coffee, condiments, paper towels, toilet paper, dishwasher pods etc). It was also very close to skiing at big bear which was convenient.
Bernard was very communicative throughout, provided plenty of useful info and was accommodating of our needs which made things so much smoother for us.
We’ve discussed coming back in the future.

Had a great weekend at this house with our family enjoying the winter fun at Ski Big Bear. The house was exactly what we were looking for- very clean, bright, well appointed, and had plenty of fun features for the kids. This included the game room in the basement and the bean bag nook which the kids loved. The location is perfect if you are heading to big bear. It’s only about a 5 minute drive to the lodge so it’s easy enough to come and go much as you need to. The hosts were great - very communicative and provided all the information you could need about the house, the community, and the surrounding area. Would definitely stay again.

Bernard was extremely helpful prior to booking, during our stay and after checkout. His response time was great and our family had the best time. So many fun activities for our kids and the lake was beautiful. Would definitely go back!

We stayed at Bernard and Meryl's place for over three weeks with our two children this past August. We found the home to be incredibly comfortable, clean, and in a great location. Bernard was extremely proactive in communicating information about the house, the location, check in and check out. We felt the hosts went above and beyond to make the home and our stay enjoyable. The home was very clean and clutter free. Information about the community and amenities was easily accessible, and small details, like soft bedding and supplies for smores were waiting for us. It felt like Bernard and Meryl take a lot of pride in their home and sharing it. We had a great experience and highly recommend.

We had an amazing experience staying in this house. The house was very clean and had many ready to use amenities. The outdoor firepit was our favorite! It was a perfect getaway and will definitely be back soon!

Great location and stay! There are a lot of things to do games, fireplace, outdoor fire pit, hiking locations, etc. The best part is the resort amenities that include multiple pools, slides, minigolf, beach, kayaks, etc. for a small fee of $10/per person. this is only 5 min from the house. Great communication, location and a fun stay. Kids loved it!
