Family-friendly vacation rentals in Apple Valley

Great place to stay; especially if you have pets. Nice backyard. It was very homey and clean.

This cabin was the perfect escape—peaceful, cozy, and surrounded by nature. Thoughtfully decorated and immaculately clean, it felt like a true home away from home. Mornings on the porch with coffee and evenings by the fire were absolute highlights. Every detail was warm and welcoming, and we left feeling recharged and grateful. Can’t wait to come back!

This Airbnb was the perfect place to relax and decompress. It was just my husband and I, so we grilled, cooked, hung out in the game room, the fire table and used the spa. It was all a perfect way to relax and enjoy the sounds of nature.

Truly enjoyed our stay and the interaction with Tess. The house had all the amenities needed for our family. Great location. You are within walking distance of the Village. Back deck is very peaceful. Used the table and chairs in the front of the house for morning coffee. That was perfect.

Everything was great! We loved spending time on the deck, with the hot tub and grill and table. The bedroom was comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with essentials including coffee and spices. We would definitely stay here again.

The rental was more spacious and beautiful than expected. Throughly enjoyed our stay and will stay there again when visiting. Accommodated our earlier check in and were very responsive. Had a wonderful visit.

Jonathan Lee’s place was great and very close to downtown! Perfect for what I needed. I had a great time. The home was clean and the sheets were super comfy.

We had a peaceful and cozy stay at this cabin in Big Bear. The space was well-stocked with the basic amenities and even a few extras, and we really appreciated the clear and thoughtful instructions provided by the host. It made everything easy and stress-free. One thing to note: the walkway up to the cabin is definitely a workout. It's a bit of a climb, so I wouldn't recommend it for small children or elderly guests, especially if you're bringing a lot of stuff. Thankfully, we packed light and managed just fine. As with any mountain retreat, you should be okay with a few critters. We found a couple of bees inside when we arrived, but Dena had some tape available to help trap them. There were also spider webs on the outdoor furniture, so be sure to check before sitting down. On our last morning, we noticed quite a few ants in the shower…but again, it's the mountains, and that kind of comes with the territory. Overall we had a great time and it’s a beautiful location!

Arlene was amazing. Always responded quickly when I had questions and she made us feel right at home. We had this lovely cottage in the woods to ourselves and our fur babies loved every minute of it. I highly recommend 😊❤️

Had a great time with my fiancée and two other couples at Jenee’s Airbnb. Has an amazing view of the lake from the patio. Overall, would recommend!

My family & I spent father's day at Bob's cabin. As soon as we walked in, it felt like home. This cabin was close to the lake & village. The jacuzzi was a plus. The kids had fun. I would definitely recommend this cabin. Thank you

Jose was an awesome host! Home felt like home, very comfortable and relaxing in a great location. Highly recommend this place 😀

This home is equipped with EVERYTHING! It had a lot of kitchen appliances and seasonings for cooking. Lots of extra linens and blankets. Home is located really close to all the action, and the deck was awesome.

We had the most wonderful weekend at Jennifer’s cabin with our entire family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we booked, she was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and welcoming. She provided clear, detailed instructions that made check-in and navigating the home a breeze. The cabin itself was absolutely stunning: spacious, beautifully maintained, and stocked with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable and memorable group stay. Every room was thoughtfully furnished, and the house had all essential equipment for cooking meals together (2 ovens + 2 grills!) The views of the lake were breathtaking, and there were plenty of cozy corners to relax, play games, or just enjoy each other’s company. It’s clear that Jennifer takes great pride in this home and truly cares about her guests’ experience. Our family made lasting memories here. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic retreat.

Sherry was WONDERFUL! Super communicative, let me order some Amazon packages there last minute when I needed a few things for the wedding we were attending. Sherry’s place is great, definitely a little in the middle of nowhere but central to lots of things. Would absolutely stay here again.

Had a great stay once again. The place was very clean easy to get to and close to town. Stairs are difficult to climb so plan your outings accordingly. Still love this cabin in the woods.

Prime location for anyone competing in the Big Bear Spartan. It was peaceful leading up to the weekend, allowing restful sleep and relaxation. I was able to register for the race early in the morning and head back to the house to prepare and stretch comfortably before the race. It was nice coming right back to the house to unwind and recover, especially with the convenience of the hot tub! Totally played a part in minimizing soreness. Centrally located to shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and hiking trails. The scenery was beautiful and something I will never forget! It was a fantastic stay and I would definitely stay there again if I am in Big Bear. I can only imagine how awesome this place is during the ski season!

Tawnya was quick to respond regarding reservation even though it was so last minute. Everything was as described. I would definitely stay again.

Great place and location, even better than looks and described online. A lot of nice touches to make it "cozy" and welcoming. The birds in yard are wonderful to hear especially in the morning. I will definitely stay again in future.

We really enjoyed our stay. We had plenty of space and privacy to complete a perfect family getaway.

Great resort and amenities. Would definitely want to stay here next trip. Thanks.

It’s only the 2nd time in 3 yrs that I used Airbnb - so I had some issues w/locating and entering. Boris was unfailingly polite, responsive and patient with my questions. (Note: local authority directed me to a waste station charging $15 to take my garbage.) Altogether the place is clean and comfortable as well as convenient. My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and wished we could have stayed longer to enjoy the hot tub and the array of entertainment options provided in the cabin. I highly recommend, THANK YOU Boris!

Absolutely loved the apartment big spacious comfortable beds quiet .Definitely gonna make this place a regular spot to stay .

Location was perfectly located just steps away from the lake and a short drive to the village! Would love to come back during the winter.
