The room was clean and comfortable and check in was friendly. I loved the lobby! There's a fireplace and it feels like a cozy ski lodge. The only downside was that it was a bit loud because all the hallways are wood, so sound echoes. The other guests were not too loud, but I could hear people coming and going.

Probably the best part of the stay was the friendly staff and the Big Bear breakfast burritos. I stayed at the Beachside Inn which was nice since I had easy access to the long dock, which allowed me to get on the water without being in the water. Staying right on the lakeshore provided amazing photo opportunities in the early morning.

Jamie

Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The check in process was so easy so I appreciate that. But I felt like the room was a little dirty. There was chewed up gum on our door knob to the bathroom and the side of the wall so that was a little gross. And it was a little off putting that you could hear the other room going to the bathroom. I would definitely stay in the cabin part of the camp but not the motel part.
The view was fabulous
