Top Big Bear Central Hotel Reviews

Bluegreen Vacations Big Bear Village, an Ascend Collection Resort

8/10 Good

"Our suite was just right for my 3 grandchildren and myself. The kitchen was well stocked with basic cookware, table strings, etc. All we had to do is bring our own groceries. We were very comfortable. The only item missing was a chair in the master suite where I can sit, relax and watch TV or read. Didn’t want to lie in bed or be with the kids in the living room. Also, I didn’t read the instructions on room service, which needed to have been requested 24 hours in advance. We needed fresh towels, but I was able to pick some up from the front desk. The location is in “The Village” which is such a charming, lovely shopping center with several restaurants and a movie theater. We absolutely enjoyed our stay."

Arkouda Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"Front Desk staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about Big Bear. They were able to help my wife and I with places to take our dog on the lake, and where some great options were to grab food and drinks. Room was clean and very cute. It was spot on to the description and photos on the website. Very close to the lake, and easy to get to Big Bear Village from the hotel. Would absolutely stay here again with my dog when I am in Big Bear again."

Bear Creek Resort

8/10 Good

"The room was great! The place was very homey and clean. Angela was also amazing, however the tv wasn’t working, We were not told we needed to ask for hot water so we endured a cold shower at night but then asked Angela the next day and it was heated but only slightly warm. The highlight was the private jacuzzi! In spite of the two not so great things this was a very memorable stay and kind of perfect."

Big Bear Frontier

10/10 Excellent

"Request a room upstairs, request a room upstairs, request a room upstairs. Despite an amazing location, remodeled rooms and amazing stay, my only complaint is how thin the walls are. We go to bed fairly early but people upstairs stayed up and walked around and played music until 2am. It’s not their fault but I would request the room upstairs if I planned to stay again “also request a fan because it’s wayyyy too quiet and you hear everything!!!! But again, it’s a beautiful location, beautiful rooms and for the price, I’d book again"
