10/10 Exceptional

Great hot tub!
Victor, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Romantic Getaway

Very Cozy with a nice, firm bed, fireplace, couch and jacuzzi tub wide enough to sit side by side snd watch TV. Also loved the two shower heads with plenty of room to shower together. Located North of Division Rd so we got a chance to explore reataurants and shops we don't typically see when staying close to the villiage, like a newly discovered favorite, Pickles Pie Shop, where you'll find the best home made pies on the mountain. Order ahead, they run out fast.
Amy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Wi-Fi is not very good and therefore there were some issues with television reception, but the bed was so comfortable the Jacuzzi tub so refreshing. I enjoyed having the microwave and coffee maker in my room as well as a large bathroom area beautiful cozy fireplace that I’ll come back in the winter to enjoy.
Kathy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

OK, clean but dated

The hot/cold controls on the hot tub are really lose almost falling out of the hole, lighting is really dim, pull chain for the ceiling fan was missing (i fixed it myself) parking is tight for a full size truck or SUV, trees had been partially trimmed over our parking spot but not trimmed enough. The branches put a nice scratch in the roof of my truck. Other than that the place was clean and quite, just old
James, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Place to stay, about 10 min drive to town, live the comfortable settings of Fireplace & Hot Tub. Everything was clean and ready for our stay, have stayed here twice in 3 years and will definitely be back.

Great follow-up and hospitality, it was amazing, very nice cabin, excellent service.
Sergio, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The cottages were super cute! The fireplaces were adorable and exactly what we want. After a long day out in the cold. We'll definitely stay here again

Great communications, very nice room with spa for 2. super convenient parking and great value. We look forward to another visit.

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was very friendly and was able to accommodate our needs
Apryl, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Host was very welcoming and responsive. My cabin had all the essentials, great heater and powerful hot shower pressure. Maybe the bed sheets and towels could use a refresh, but again everything was warm and clean. This is definitely a homey, woodsy cabin, not a fancy hotel/airbnb, which was my expectation, so I was very satisfied.
Richelle, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Had a wonderful time there! It’s definitely for couples If you are going with a group of friends, I would recommend we be instead, which is owned by the same company.
michael, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A quiet, relaxing experience. A short drive to the Village and hustle and bustle of Big Bear Lake. A perfect get-away. Only minor facilities need improvement (creaky bed, wobbly faucet, couch). Someone should have mentioned the dual showers and memory foam bed, what a plus!
Terhea, 2-night trip

silas, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a fantastic stay! The customer service was top-notch. The reservation manager, Tanya, was so kind and went above and beyond to accommodate my guest and I. The cottage was cozy and comfortable, making it easy to relax after hours of traveling up the mountain. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Big Bear!"

It was perfect for a nice little overnight getaway. Loved the theme and cleanliness. I’m a texter, so the texting and minimal contact was super convenient. We will definitely be back!
