Overall this was a great lodge for our trip to Big Bear Lake. The staff was very friendly. A bit less accessible than some other places. Text messages are the only contact after 6pm and only for emergencies after 9pm. Our fireplace did not work well on our first day and had stopped completely when we tried again on the second night. Being that it was after 9pm this didn't seem like an emergency so there was no way to address it. We had the Brown Bear room which is quite spacious and has a full kitchen. No dishwasher and no rack to place hand washed dishes but that is just a minor inconvenience. The kitchen has all the cooking utensils you need, as well as coffee and filters. The room did get pretty cold at times so you have to adjust the thermostat a bit for consistency. There is a warning about turning it too high because it takes a long time to cool the room off, so maybe we were just playing it a little too safe. The Brown Bear room overlooks a major street in The Village. It is extremely convenient for walking around when you leave the lodge, but it can get quite noisy. I had to tend to some business calls while our baby slept in the main bedroom so I had to compete with noise coming up from the street. There is a great gelato shop downstairs that people seem to congregate in front of. So if you need a quiet room, I would suggest inquiring about the rooms facing the rear of the building instead. Overall, I would definitely consider staying here again in the future.
