Cozy Stay with a Few Quirks

I really loved the room—super cozy and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The fireplace added a nice touch and made the space feel warm and relaxing. Definitely one of the better rooms I’ve stayed in for a mountain getaway. That said, the lobby was… interesting. The decor felt very dated and over-the-top, with an overwhelming number of tacky chandeliers. One small area had around 20 pink chandeliers clustered together—it was a bit much. Thankfully, the room made up for it. Parking was surprisingly expensive for Big Bear, especially since most places offer free or more affordable options. However, the front desk staff were very kind and ended up waiving our parking fee due to a delay in getting our room ready. All the staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Despite the quirky decor and pricey parking, I’d definitely consider staying again just for the comfort and coziness of the room.

Loved staying here. Just a couple of hours away from home and it felt like another world. Quiet and relaxing. Nice pool. All the employees we came in contact with were very friendly. The daily breakfast was amazing. Lots of seating and great spread/choices. We took advantage of the game room, played Pool and table hockey (both my favorite) they also have other table game (soccer) and game boards. Room was clean and comfortable. Used two of the bathrooms in the main floor which were also very clean and well stocked. Will definitely be back!

Okay stay.

No cleaning daily unless requested. Even then it was barely cleaned. Food was good and the bistro was as well. Hotels.com and trip advisor say there is parking included but was shocked I had to pay $80 for parking.
