This place got the job done. Excellent location right in Big Bear Village, we could easily walk to everything. Parking was easy and had plenty of room with our truck.
I really enjoyed my stay here. The manager was great—super helpful and easy to talk to. They answered all my questions quickly, which made everything easier. I’d definitely recommend this place for a comfortable stay
Had a last minute opportunity to getbaway to Big Bear and found this gem of a property for my teen age son and I. Clean, comfortable room wright in the heart of our favorite part of Big Bear. Loved the stay!
Located in the center of everything, dine, shop and the lake. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed full kitchen since we like to prep our own meal.
Pet friendly so I get to bring my fur baby.
the lodge was so good full of everything you need , the location is amazing in big bear village close to all the restaurants , bars ,shops and all the snow activities , the only thing i would like to be change the check it out time is so early 10 am , it should be at least 12 pm like the regular time , thanks for the host so easy to communicate .
This property is great. Has everything you need. Heater was perfect. We had a great time and enjoyed walking to restaurants on the same block, having ice cream, and enjoying the fireplace with a movie. Very cozy. Price was incredible. About 200 less than a regular cabin. Loved it.
Unit was perfect. Immaculately clean. Bunk beds in living area & a separate master bedroom with a comfortable clean king bed and en suite bath/shower. Big TV in main room with WiFi. Exactly as depicted. Perfect location if you’re interested in being in the center of The Village, easy access to all the shops and restaurants. Simple. No fuss. Just comfortable and convenient to everything. Parking was right behind the building, which made it easy to load and unload. Very simple check-in virtually. Good communication. I will def return.

Did not stay ....... room was up an extremely steep set of stairs that my wife could not navigate.
The location was perfect and it was a very spacious room. However, everything was old and run down. The toilet seat was broken. There was hair in the shower and very poor water pressure. The beds were old. The bathroom vanity was broken. Everything just needed upgrading. It wasn't a comfortable stay.
