The cabin was nice. You get what you pay for. It could have been a bit more clean (found some trash under the beds, some silverware not clean). But overall we were comfortable. They did try to accommodate us for an early check in which was nice. The hot tub was nice and clean also.

Disappointing Stay Despite Easy Check-In I recently stayed at Bear Creek Resort and while the self check-in process was smooth and convenient, the rest of the experience was far from pleasant. The room was old and run-down, with worn-out furniture and a generally unkempt appearance. The worst part was discovering a mouse in the room. I’ve stayed at several hotels in the mountains before and have never encountered rodents inside the rooms. This was not only unsettling but also raised concerns about the overall cleanliness and maintenance of the hotel. While the location was great and the check-in process was hassle-free, the poor condition of the room and the presence of a mouse made this a stay I wouldn’t repeat. I would not recommend this hotel unless major improvements are made.

Big bear stay

It was strange to me that there was no one ever at the check in desk and all communication was through text only, they never answered my 2 phone calls. The condition of the room was good overall, however the heater makes very loud banging noises during the night which kept waking us up. The towels were not thoroughly cleaned and had snot or food residue on it. The shower curtain was stained. Additionally, we always strip the beds as we check out to help the cleaning staff, and were shocked and grossed out by the number of stains on the mattress cover. In my opinion, anything with stains should be replaced for good hygiene and health standards. I regret not checking under the sheets prior to sleeping. Conveniently located. Great Mexican food across the street. Would give it a second chance to stay there again.

Terrible stay at Bear Creek Resort

Cost per night $387 Bedrooms at Cabin #30 were located right by the main street and were very noisy. Beds were extremely uncomfortable. A couple of mattresses had springs popping out. Sleeping on the floor would have been better. Sheets had stains. The mattress for the queen size bed was made of two small mattresses zip tied together. Carpets and sofa were extremely filthy. Bathrooms were gross. White shower curtains were stained brown. Individual shampoo bottles had already been used. Main entrance door had no safety lock from the inside like you would expect at any hotel

LAST MINUTE STAY

We opted for an overnight stay at a resort, and while the last-minute availability of a cabin was appreciated, it did not meet our expectations for a one-night stay. Despite some drawbacks, the resort offered a pleasant experience, but the bed proved challenging for me as a 5'2 individual, and I struggled to climb onto it. My husband, who stands at 5'11, also found it difficult to get onto the bed, although he found it comfortable. Regrettably, the pull-out couch was not up to par due to wear and tear, featuring large holes and unevenness. To mitigate this issue, I had brought my portable mattress, which fit neatly onto the couch and, when layered with blankets, provided a tolerable sleeping surface.
