Top Big Bear Visitor Center Hotel Reviews

Robinhood Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Room and clean and staff very helpful"

Holiday Inn Resort The Lodge At Big Bear Lake by IHG

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and the check-in staff was good. Checking out was challenging as the person was on a break. Upon arrival the parking was horrible because there was a car show on the premises."

Rustic Village Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful little cabin with parking directly in front of door which makes unloading car easy. Cute picnic table out front. Best location possible for walking the town and accessing the restaurants. We loved it !"

Lagonita Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and affordable. Great location next to the lake"

Arkouda House

10/10 Excellent

"This is a new renovation which is still in progress; it will only get better! The owner was on site during our stay and could not have been more accommodating. You can tell that "pet friendly" was part of the thinking during the renovation. In fact, there was no charge to bring our golden retriever. The room is laid out very simply with a minimal amount of fabric in the furnishings. When you walked into the room it smelled like red cedar. Location is excellent with only a very short walk to town. All systems are modern and worked very efficiently."

Lakefront Escape

8/10 Good

"The cabin is perfectly set off from the lake and in good walking distance to the Village and boat rentals. Kitchen is fulling stocked with dishes, pots, pans and coffee pot etc... Little table for two set cutely up.... Beds were nice with gel mattress, and bedding with pillows new and clean.. Bathroom clean... Shower/Tub looked like maybe someone replaced the shower head and did clean up after replacement... could have been rinsed down.... We will defiantly be staying again :-) possibly renting more than one cabin for a family trip."
