We only stayed for one night to attend an event. we didnt see much of the property but it seemed like a nice location. we stayed in the motel part not in a cabin and the rooms had been remodeled not too long ago. unfortunately a horrible cleaner smell greeted us when we opened the door. It was very aggressive and gave us a head ache. The mattresses were old, lumpy and uncomfortable. Staff was nice and everything else was good.

We loved the rustic beauty and the close proximity to the lake and the village. Our family had 3 cabins, and we all had a wonderful time. We had no problem getting assistance from the staff at the Big Bear Frontier when needed. We would most definitely love to go back the next time we are in the area!

Perfect and cute little getaway

This was my first weekend getaway to big Bear. My boyfriend and I absolutely loved it! The little cabins are cute and quaint and clean and comfy. All the cookware and utensils were provided. We were able to make our own dinner without any problems at all. And the lake is literally just outside the door in a few steps away. And also the downtown area that big bear has is only a short walk away as well. The location is absolutely perfect. If you haven’t tried hot tubbing in the snow I highly recommend it. We will definitely be going back.
