Top Boulder Bay Hotel Reviews

Big Bear Frontier

10/10 Excellent

"Walking distance to the village it’s a super great spot walking distance form restaurant bars and marina !!!"

Bear Creek Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at cabin 15, it’s perfect for just two people. It has a queen size bed, decent sized bathroom with shower/tub, a mini fridge and microwave. It’s inside its own little fenced space which I really liked, they have some chairs outside and a jacuzzi. Check-in is a little different than other places I’ve stayed at but still super easy, I just texted the provided number to check in and they gave me the code for the door. And then texted them after we left the property. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again when we’re in town."

Big Bear Lakefront Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is a little Hidden Gem. If you get a Lakeview balcony you are in for a treat. The balconies look directly out and on to the private Little Beach area and boat dock directly behind the hotel it is Lakefront property. If you get a garden View you can watch the birds and the squirrels interact throughout the trees and garden area. There are fireplaces in the room, ping pong table, chairs on the out side deck patios and grills and tables on the private Beach area. The staff at the front office was absolutely charming and so very helpful! There is a very simple grab and go breakfast in the morning in the office which consists of coffee, granola bars, oatmeal, apples and things of that nature that you can just literally grab stick in your pocket or start munching on as you head out to the lake or back to your room. There are fireplaces in the room but we did not turn hours on since we visited in September and it wasn't quite that chilly. Dogs are welcomed for a fee unless they are a service animal in which case they are no cost. The beds were comfortable and the shower was very nice, especially having the option to have the heat turned on in the bathroom. That will be especially nice in the snowy months. The water pressure was a little bit low but that is just being nitpicky. Overall I would recommend this hotel and I would stay there again."

Hotel Marina Riviera

10/10 Excellent

"Returning visitors. Can’t beat the location. All rooms facing the lake is also a big plus. Great staff and excellent amenities, including a huge deck connecting restaurant to bar and lounging area with stunning views on the lake, a pool that is very well maintained, hot tub, sauna, ice bath and even bike rentals. Across the street is the entrance to the village. A gem of a place in Big Bear. Let’s all keep this resort as pristine as they’ve made it."
