Another warm family gathering
A fantastic stay with family cooking and baking together in an open concept kitchen/dining/family area where we could all spread out comfortably and still be together in the same space. Each could retire for the day to their own room, kick back with a movie and video games downstairs in the theater…relax with bubbles and your own music in a large hot tub just outside, and grills at the ready for chicken, steak, and more. The wraparound porch provided uncanny views and plenty of family selfie opportunities. Would def vacay here again!

Perfect Christmas Cabin mini-getaway
We wouldn't find a complaint if we tried. We drove just over 5 hours specifically to stay here for a quiet weekends with just my husband and I and our dog. We second everything every other perfect 5/5 review says. We have only positive things to say. It couldn't have been a better weekend at Big Bear Lodge. Thank you, Sigrid and Brian!

#1 Cabin in the North.
This is our 4th year at this Cabin and it never disappoints. The property is exceptionally maintained, and provisioned; you don’t have to bring anything but your food. In addition every year there is a new improvement that is made to the property to add comfort, convenience or reliability. Don’t skip over this one, if it’s available book it.

Perfect get away location
We loved our stay at Big Bear! Its so idyllic and well stocked. We loved the hot tub, the pond, all the room inside to spread out and spend time together. The owner was great with communication and you could tell that they actually use the place because it had everything we needed.
