"I had to shovel three foot high snow 10 feet long to get to the front door. I also had to shovel another six feet to get to the stairs as well. Luckily I brought a shovel because if I hadn’t I couldn’t have gotten into the place. This was after being told the room wasn’t ready and was being worked on. Once inside it was a Time Machine back the 80s everything was extremely outdated. The only plus was location and view"

Top Boulder Bay Hotel Reviews

Postcard Cabins Big Bear, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy

10/10 Excellent

"Small place. Great view and we were able to sit outside for a bit and saw some shooting stars!"

Chateau Big Bear Boutique Hotel, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"I have to start off with how much I LOVE the kooky art work in this hotel. It made me want to walk to halls just to find more. 😂Absolutely loved my room! The jetted tub was so amazing and appreciated the balcony for a solo cup of coffee in the morning. Sheets were crisp and clean and the room smelled wonderful when I walked in. Wish I got the name of the woman who checked me in to give her a shout out. She was a sweetheart. Will absolutely stay here again if and when I visit Big Bear. 🐻 Only thing to know is there is a $20 a night parking fee to be in the lot. Worth it."

Hotel Marina Riviera

8/10 Good

"Couldn’t beat the location and the views. Staff was really friendly and the room was nice. It was a very small room, which is ok if you’re not planning to spend much time there. Our bathroom sliding door wouldn’t quite stay all the way closed, but it wasn’t a big deal for us. Our kids loved the pool and beach area, and we appreciated the close proximity to the village. Overall, we will definitely stay again if we decide to stay in a hotel on our next visit."

Big Bear Frontier

10/10 Excellent

"Request a room upstairs, request a room upstairs, request a room upstairs. Despite an amazing location, remodeled rooms and amazing stay, my only complaint is how thin the walls are. We go to bed fairly early but people upstairs stayed up and walked around and played music until 2am. It’s not their fault but I would request the room upstairs if I planned to stay again “also request a fan because it’s wayyyy too quiet and you hear everything!!!! But again, it’s a beautiful location, beautiful rooms and for the price, I’d book again"
