Everything was clean. Bed is a little squeaky. On the information, there will be available spices in the kitchen. But there’s no salt, only pepper. Other than that, everything is good! ##### Roxanne Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Joshua G Feb 16, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, communication Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The location is great and centrally located near everything Big Bear has to offer. That said, the property felt under-equipped and poorly maintained. The kitchen item were as cheap as cheap could be and lacked. Several things were broken, such as the toilet seat and blinds. The hot water in the shower was not adequate. Towels, toiletries, were as cheap as kitchen. The bedding, and the bed were not comfortable. This place did not meet the cost. I actually chose to leave before my second night rather then have a poor sleep. The hot tube was very old both the jets and water temperature were weak. Overall, good location, but the comfort and upkeep did not meet expectations. ##### Joshua G Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Dawn Oct 5, 2025 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, communication The cabin was clean and well supplied. ##### Dawn Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Ramada by Wyndham Anaheim Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Hotels-Travelodge-By-Wyndham-Anaheim-Convention-Center.h8586.Hotel-Information) > - [STILE Downtown Los Angeles](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-STILE-Downtown-Los-Angeles-By-Kasa.h6948120.Hotel-Information) > - [The Westin San Diego Bayview](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-The-Westin-San-Diego-Downtown.h27516.Hotel-Information) > - [Montrose at Beverly Hills](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Montrose-West-Hollywood.h17594.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Ziggy on Sunset](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Hotel-Ziggy-Los-Angeles.h11087.Hotel-Information) > - [Lakeview Haven - Lake View, Game Room, Pool Table, Hot Tub](https://www.expedia.ca/Big-Bear-Lake-Hotels-Lakeview-Haven-4BD3BALake-View-Home-Close-To-Pleasure-Point-MarinaGame-RoomHot-TubWiFi.h35498947.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Paseo, Autograph Collection by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Hotel-Paseo.h19698333.Hotel-Information) > - [Hollywood Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Hollywood-Hotel-The-Hotel-Of-Hollywood.h12553.Hotel-Information) > - [Element Anaheim Resort Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Hotels-Element-Anaheim-Resort-Convention-Center.h37620004.Hotel-Information) > - [The Colony Palms Hotel and Bungalows - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Colony-Palms-Hotel-And-Bungalows.h1652438.Hotel-Information) > - [Argonaut Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Argonaut-Hotel-A-Noble-House-Hotel.h915510.Hotel-Information) > - [Stay Classy Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Stay-Classy.h54911318.Hotel-Information) > - [Spacious Cabin w/ Modern Amenities, Foosball & Boat Parking](https://www.expedia.ca/Big-Bear-Lake-Hotels-Beautiful-REMODELED-Cabin-With-Coffee-Bar.h59285893.Hotel-Information) > - [The Barnes San Francisco, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Villa-Florence-San-Francisco-On-Union-Square.h5425.Hotel-Information) > - [The Beverly Hills Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Beverly-Hills-Hotel-Dorchester-Collection.h12057.Hotel-Information) > - [WorldMark Indio](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-WorldMark-Indio.h1784055.Hotel-Information) > - [NAMU CABIN • Modern Chic Design w/ Spa & Gameroom](https://www.expedia.ca/Big-Bear-Lake-Hotels-NEW-Namu-Cabin-Modern-Cozy-Mountain-Getaway.h83043011.Hotel-Information) > - [Pixar Place Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Hotels-Disneys-Paradise-Pier-Hotel.h9503.Hotel-Information) > - [The Anthem Los Angeles Stadium District, Tapestry by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Anthem-Los-Angeles-Stadium-District.h73661156.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyatt Regency San Francisco Downtown SOMA ](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-The-Park-Central-San-Francisco-Hyatt-Affiliated-Hotel.h491.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Caza Fisherman's Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Hotel-Caza.h38249309.Hotel-Information) > - [FOUND Hotels, Santa Monica, Series by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-FOUND-Los-Angeles-Santa-Monica.h41510539.Hotel-Information) > - [The Commerce Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Hotel-Los-Angeles-Commerce-Casino.h533227.Hotel-Information) > - [Summit Mountain Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Big-Bear-Lake-Hotels-Summit-Mountain-Lodge.h95852180.Hotel-Information) > - [VEA Newport Beach, A Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Newport-Beach-Hotels-Newport-Beach-Marriott-Hotel-And-Spa.h19095.Hotel-Information) > - [Beacon Grand, A Union Square Hotel ](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Sir-Francis-Drake-Hotel.h15254.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyatt Centric Delfina Santa Monica](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Hyatt-Centric-Delfina-Santa-Monica.h12942.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyatt Vacation Club at The Welk, San Diego Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Escondido-Hotels-Hyatt-Vacation-Club-At-The-Welk.h59916.Hotel-Information) > - [Adorable LAKEFRONT cabin!
