The property unit I got was a bit smaller than what I expected but overall it was a very peaceful quiet property and very clean. I think next time I book a stay I will request a bigger room but other than that I was satisfied with my stay.

Hidden gem in Big Bear! The views of the lake are amazing and Mia at the front desk was awesome. You can walk to the village in less than 10 mins and you can visit the new bar and restaurant right by the resort called the Bear Trap, really fun place with amazing cocktails.

The thing I like about this property is that is close to the village like 2 minute drive and if you want to walk is 15 minutes. Is a good place to stay but it will be even better if they were to renovate some things. I stayed in room 17, sink in the restroom doesn’t work it didn’t have water we didn’t bother to say anything because there was another sink right outside the restroom and we were only staying for one night. But the whole room was dirty with dirt everywhere even our nightstand. The fire alarm was removed and found it by the tv. The mini kitchen sink, coffee maker and microwave was also very dirty, like they didn’t care to clean at all from the previous guests and left it as is. By the way the coffee maker didn’t have the glass cup to make coffee. All pillows had stains and hair. The curtains were messed up. Whoever washed them didn’t read instructions so they were burned from the dry. I just wish it was a lot cleaner, and I know people will say you get what you pay for but it is actually not a bad place and not that cheap just wish they care a little bit more. Breakfast is just a snack not really a satisfying meal ok and is inside the office. You are able to get coffee anytime of the day which is nice but please ask your housekeeper to do clean the room properly and your front desk staff to be nice because we were greeted badly.

Our stay at Big Bear Lakefront Lodge was an absolute nightmare. The conditions were unacceptable, and management was completely unhelpful. Here’s what we endured: Broken appliances – The stove didn’t work, the garbage disposal was broken, and the fan/light in the dining area was out. Filthy and unsanitary – Mouse droppings throughout the kitchen, no cleaning supplies, and not a single trash bag provided. No basic necessities – No toilet paper, clean towels, or even basic kitchen utensils, cookware, or glasses. Severe temperature issues – The upstairs was unbearably hot while the downstairs was freezing due to a broken window. No one in our family could get a decent night’s sleep. Hot water disaster – The water heater only allowed for one warm shower before running out, leaving the rest of us with freezing showers. Internet didn’t work. The cot was a joke – The mattress was so bad that it would be considered inhumane for a prison. Management was nonexistent – The office was closed most of the time when we sought help, and when we did get in touch with someone, they had no idea what to do. To make matters worse, we’ve been trying to get a refund for over two months, and neither Big Bear Lakefront Lodge nor Expedia has done anything meaningful to resolve this. Instead, we were offered a small credit for a future stay, which is insulting given the experience we had.
