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.

There was a lot of construction going on at the time of my stay, so I'll refrain from commenting on the general area. My main complaints were this: the WiFi signal in my room was so bad that i couldn't connect to it. The router(s) was too far away to get a signal for any of my devices, so I ended up using my personal cell service. I was in room 210 on the edge of the building by the lake if you want to verify. My second issue was that they give you a door hanger where one side says "do not disturb" and the other side says "maid service requested." There are a couple problems with that, but the main one is this is an outdoors facing unit and the hangar falls off easily. I was woken by some maids banging on my door and trying to unlock it because the crappy plastic hangar fell off and they probably couldnt tell which side was on display.

Thermostat in the room was broken. Tried to cool the room, started feeling warm soon. Noticed issues with the thermostat, it was too late in the night and with kids it was a very wasteful night.

Great stay at the Big Bear Frontier Lodge!

We did a single night stay in the Lodge at the Big Bear Frontier, and it was wonderful! The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. They even had fireplaces in the room! Loved the hot tub and heated pool. We will 100% be back!

The rooms have been recently renovated. They are very nice! I love the electric fireplace/heater in the room along with the new heat/AC system. There’s a view of the lake from all of the rooms.
