All the amenities are worth it!
Absolutely would have given 5 stars but our cabin was near a busy road. Loved the private beach for bird watching, relaxing and yoga on the dock. The pool was heated and absolutely perfect.

Excellent Stay
We were greeted by a kind gentleman upon arrival. Our room was very clean and well appointed with a microwave, mini fridge and coffee maker. The electric fireplace was a nice touch! Our beds were comfy. The location is central to all Big Bear has to offer. Overall our stay was excellent. We can hardly wait to visit again.

Nice cozy place
Nice clean room with wood floors, I brought my dog along, and it was comfy for both of us. Fridge, microwave, coffee maker. Cute fake fireplace too, for ambiance. Right near a “beach” on the lake which was nice, but a bit rocky and lake water was a bit gross looking there.

Our favorite place to stay in BB! The cabins are so cute and give you the mountain rustic feel. Great location and walking distance to the village. Staff is super helpful and willing to assist. Dog friendly. They are also in the process of remodeling and the new cabins look very modern.
