Unfortunately the cabin we upgrade to wasn’t the same as what was advertised at all. Still nice but definitely not what we paid for.

Stayed for the weekend at Big Bear Frontier. The check-in process could have been smoother—was told I’d get a text when the room was ready, but it never came. After calling a few times (and getting hung up on), I finally confirmed the room was ready. The location, however, is excellent—right on the lake, next to a new bar, and walking distance to the Village. The room itself was clean and had a decent fridge, but the bed and pillows weren’t very comfortable. No housekeeping during the stay, which was fine for a short trip. Overall, I’d stay again and may try one of the cabins next time.

The accommodations were pleasant and comfortable, although the beds could be improved. Specifically, the pull-out bed in the living room was quite noisy, and it caused some discomfort. Perhaps upgrading the beds would enhance the overall experience. Aside from that, the stay was satisfactory.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The lodge room was very clean and comfortable with air conditioning, however the walls are paper thin. The people around us had dogs which we could hear barking clearly (and loudly) through the walls, and we could hear entire conversations from the next room over. Definitely needs some sound proofing, or bring earplugs. The staff was really kind though and the property is in a great area, within walking distance to the main shops.

The place looks like they just renovated it from the inside so the outside was looking down but nice inside. We asked for room service and they never arrived.

Great get away.

We stayed in the hotel part of the location. (They have cabins also). The hotel secrion is right next to the lake. There is a dock to walk out on and take your paddle board out from. 2 blocks from the Village. Very nice hotel would stay there again.
