Find hotels near Big Bear Lake in Big Bear Lake (CA), United States

Very nice hotel with really helpful staff. Our room had a fireplace (gas) which gave it a nice flair. Room was comfortable and warm. Facilities like swimming pool, fitness room, billiards (pool) table etc avail. Its only a short car-ride to the lake and the rest of town, basically easy access to all. Really enjoyed staying at Big Bear Chateau, really liked Big-Bear Lake too.

The location was good. it was near everything but not “walking-distance” near. The breakfast was okay. Lots of pastries, fruits, coffee,hot choco, juice, milk. I wish there were eggs. Our room has a mini fridge but i wish it had a microwave too so we could heat up our own food in the room. Minus two stars because our window blinds were a torn, the tiny hot water dispenser in the room is old. No hair conditioners in the bathroom (only shampoos), no toothpaste. But the bathroom is clean enough for me. Overall, it was okay but could be better.

This place was absolutely amazing! From check in to check out it provided everything our family (with 2 teenagers) needed during our summer vacation stay. When your kids are excited about the property you know you have selected well. We have stayed in several condos/suites in our travels and this property is by far one of the best! The proximity to shopping and restaurants (all within walking distance); short drive to the zoo, lake for kayaking and hiking trails, and all the ‘extras’ the clubhouse offered made for a wonderful stay for our first time in Big Bear! We highly recommend and have already told other friends and family to put this property on their list as a destination! Only recommendation is to verify check in and check out times of the property as this may affect your arrival and departure times.

The cottage was overall alright, we chose our room with a fire place since it was during winter- I think the fire place was a little too near to the bed and the flame was too strong due to the limit space. The other option I think was a bathtub. The hotel was basically a group of several old small cottages with one cottage served as a front lobby (guests must come here to register and get the key before able to enter the room) There were BBQ grill outside each room, we used ours eventho it seemed like it never got cleaned ever. We drove to a nearby supermarket to get grocery and made dinner. Necessary utensils were provided in the room which was nice. The bathroom was tiny but usable. (No bathtub)

Arriving to the lodge was very simple as it is on the 18 highway right in the middle of the village. Our lodge was a loft style, which had open fireplace (I overheard the desk attendant tell a guest staying in the suits that their room had gas heating only) as well as gas heating. 2 queens sized beds on the upstairs loft and another downstairs nestled under the stairs gives sleeping capacity for 6 adults. Only one bathroom, which means there may be a wait if you have a large group, includes a standard tub and gas hot water which is VERY hot (take caution with small children) Large vanity area with 2 sinks makes morning scrub up faster. Kitchen is fitted with just about everything you can imagine in the way of cookware and utensils. Gas stove, microwave, full sized fridge/uprightfreezer combo, all clean. Room has good solid clean furniture. Decoration is in a mish mash hokey country style which personally I like. Only down side of this room was that it has very few power sockets and it was a challenge to keep all laptops/phones/ etc on charge. They do have wifi, speeds are very average. Cannot comment on TV or cable options as we do not watch TV- we closed the cabinet off so kids wouldn't ask for it. The lodge was clean and ample towels and bedding provided. Firewood sold at the office for $5 per bundle (3 bundles lasted us all night and next morning till checkout with some left over) While the lodge is located on 18 it is very quiet at night we could not hear traffic. Nearby stores include Dennys (almost opposite) Dominos Pizza (next block) Multiple Ski hire stores, and Ski Resort 1.1 miles. Supermarkets, Walgreens, CVS, Vons etc just a couple of miles up the road in the main shopping area. I will be staying here again as we come to ski often.

The facility and location were both great, but the room we were assigned, not so much. Room 115 is the first room on the corner of the building near the parking lot. The room windows had vertical blinds which had been tweeked beyond repair leaving no privacy. Everyone walking by our patio slider, bedroom and especially our bathroom could look inside. I ended up covering our bathroom window with extra bedding.

This is a beautiful place in the Big Bear downtown walking distance to shops and restaurants and entertainment. Jacuzzi, pool, sauna, workout facilities are nice to have. Lounge with live entertainment was pleasant and they even had a nice game room for kids and adults to play some air hockey, billiards, arcade games. Breakfast buffet was a bit of a disappointment. Service was non-existent and the choices were lame for the most part, would rather eat out at one of the quaint places in walking distance.
