Great stay at the Big Bear Frontier Lodge!
We did a single night stay in the Lodge at the Big Bear Frontier, and it was wonderful! The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. They even had fireplaces in the room! Loved the hot tub and heated pool. We will 100% be back!

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.

This is a perfect place to stay in Big Bear! It’s right next to the lake and walking distance from The Village. Our room was super clean and nice looking. I also loved the way it was decorated. The guy at the front desk was really nice. I would definitely stay here again when I come back!
