The cabins were in a perfect location close to town. The cabin had ample space, was clean, and the property was well-maintained. We will definitely stay there in the future!

We left a day early because it was insanely hot and their only advice was to open the windows. The windows were covered in bugs with no screens. Hairs in the showers. Dead bugs in the house. Awful experience.

Booked and already paid for stay on my Amex. Could not check in as the front desk did not have my reservation- even though hotels.com sent several emails to me saying “all set for your stay”.

Hotel said there was a “disconnect” between them and hotels.com. Unfortunately, I was caught in this fiasco.

Very disappointed with hotels.com and seriously reconsidering if I want to make any more bookings with them - despite countless stays and thousands of dollars spend with hotels.com

Very sad.

The hottub was really the sweet spot, cabin was nice overall, the a/c and airflow sucked, had difficulty sleeping due to lack of airflow and it being hot, big bear is a little packed and overrated, not much to do. Good if you want a weekend getaway, not much else.

Had a wonderful stay at Arkouda Cabins! Jenica was incredibly pleasant, welcoming, and very accommodating throughout our visit. She made everything easy and helped make our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend! Stayed at the Roy Roger’s cabin

The room was perfect, except for the heater. But the staff came to fix it immediately. They also offered us some complimentary wine and firewood.

I booked a stay just for 1 night and confirmed everything. Got the receipt, cabin number, door code. Etc, early the day of the check in. Drove up there to find out that they double booked our stay and could not accommodate us. We drove 2 hours with 2 babies with us to find out that we can’t stay to a cabin that we wanted. I still appreciated the offers of atleast getting us alternative stay to their property or other properties, but it’s just really inconvenient and waste of time not having what we wanted to stay at. Just very disappointed.
