We were so lucky we were able to book a room at the Frontier. We were in a bind and had to book last minute. The staff was so accommodating and the room was beautiful. The room was completely remodeled and clean. The resort is under alot of construction, but it was surprisingly quiet. Once this resort is completed it is going to be beautiful and so worth the stay. It's also walking distance to the Village and down to the marina. They have chairs and firepits overlooking the lake and beautiful in the evening.
We will for sure be back.

The cabin was nice and spacious and very clean. We did not get housekeeping service though despite putting the sign on twice( we forgot the first day). The location is perfect. We attempted to light up the fireplace but something was off with how bad it smelled indoors with the smoke being blown inside despite the vent being open. Finally, we did freeze a little. No comforters, no extra blankets and it was a snow storm outside ( the front desk is far). I did not realize my kids had a phone in their room until it was time to leave. The heater in the master bedroom was broken and and the portable one was also broken. I did mention this upon checkout and was hoping for some sprt of credit but nothing was done.

Upon arrival the staff was friendly and attentive. The issues started in the room with lumpy bed that hurt me and my partners neck, struggled with the door to open or close, the shower/ bathroom combo flooded into the faucet area which made running to the restroom a messy experience. The view of the lake was nice, the heater was cozy, and the table was cool but the negative things I described almost ruined my first experience to Big Bear.

No offers of cleaning. However we did have pets with us, perhaps this is why. It wasn’t a major issue. Their fireplace did not function correctly and set off alarm (I checked flue and it was open etc etc I know what I am talking about) I think their chimney shaft is so tiny it dint function as it should and they have no glass over the fireplace, I don’t think the vent fan for the fireplace worked. I bought wood for nothing. Their kitchen appliances are damaged and nearly non functional and made it difficult for us. Big bear itself was great. The fact they allow dogs is great. But the overall experience was not cool.

We could hear every single word and step from our neighbors above us - they were up til 4am - no exaggeration, seemingly dancing? The site was also under big renovation and looked nothing like the pictures. Very upset to have spent $500 for 2 days for a romantic getaway. It was anything but. We slept terribly both nights bc of the neighbors and couldn't enjoy property amenities or views. The door key also stopped working on the second day. The front desk woman was very sweet though. Otherwise, big bummer.

Definitely a aweful all around experience. A group were complaining when I arrived. They offered me an upgrade then changed their minds once I asked to see it because it was the cabin the people were complaining about. The heater was stuck on and would not go down, the bathroom floor was dirty, shower curtain dirty, and tub was dirty. I have photos of arrival, toilet does not flush completely, the “ lake view” you have to walk to and it’s not a beachfront stangent water area at end of lake, the pool ect was closed which was not listed. One of the beds seemed to be missing springs in an areas so I had a aweful night sleep. We went somewhere else the next day. There was no number to call to get help and Expedia rep said they couldn’t get ahold of property during the night. Next morning told them and they also told me that it strange that Expedia couldn’t get ahold of them but they had placed me on hold and told me they contact them the next morning also they told me that the price I paid was $50 less than what I was charges so something is fishy with this place. They point to Expedia as the issue but I am not to sure given all the other issues. Avoid this place there are a lot of better options and if it was not so late by the time they got to me because of the people before me complaining I would have gone somewhere else too.

NOTE: If you are looking for a cabin, this is not it. I booked this place thinking it was an actual cabin-like space. This is more like a remodeled unit. Aside from that, it's a nice place to stay. Everything is new, modern, and clean. We stayed in Unit 116. The front desk hosts were so welcoming and friendly. They made us feel at home. Thank you, ladies! The unit has a kitchenette area which we used to cook breakfast in the mornings. They supplied us with a k-cup coffeemaker, paper towels, dish sponge, and dish soap. There is a fireplace (but we didn't end up using it). I will say the sitting chairs are a bit stiff and really itchy. The bed mattress is unfortunately terrible. They provide no support. We had two nights of really bad sleep. Overall though, you can't beat the price on this stay. It was peaceful, quiet, and it's close to The Village and other main areas. We'd stay here again.

We were very excited to stay here. We had stayed here years ago and enjoyed it. However this was not the case this trip. The first room we stayed at smelled of marijuana. Thankfully the front desk was accommodating and gave us another room. That room was much better with the exception of baby spiders. We ended up not complaining about that and figured were in the woods and that comes with it. The beds were terrible and we could not sleep. We ended up leaving early to go home and sleep in our own beds. Unfortunately we will not be staying here again. The plus side is that the room visually looks nice, it has a nice view of the lake, it's close to the village, it's close to the alpine slides. However traffic gets backed up pretty good there and if you're trying to get to the village it takes forever for traffic to clear. Im sure during the week its probably not as bad but the weekend we went it was pretty bad. They are also under construction making it hard to maneuver around the premises at this time. We hope others have a better experience at this hotel.

Gorgeous view of the lake right outside our door! This stay was mostly great. You can hear the people next door as if they were in your room, and you can really hear every footstep and movement from the people staying above you. If you’re a light sleeper, you’ll have a difficult time with this - it was a bit much for us and we are heavier sleepers. I assume this is why the staff leave earplugs in the room when you check in. Besides that though, everything else was perfect :) beautiful views, beautiful property, really great service

Pick Somewhere Else

The first problem we had was getting through the door to our room. The key card seemed to work, but the door handle would not turn. It took about 20 tries and much jiggling to finally get the door open - each time we returned to our room. It also was very difficult to open from the inside. The temperature in the room was a little warm and I could not figure out how to turn on the air. Once again, it took about 20 tries randomly hitting the many buttons to get the air on. We brought our dog with us (nice perk that the hotel is pet friendly). We took him for a walk down by the lake. He went down to the water and sunk up to his belly in mud. My husband also ended up with mud caked all over his shoes. We returned to the room and put the dog in the shower. The shower is open to the toilet (ADA friendly) which would be fine if the floor wasn't slanted in the wrong direction from the drain. Water (and mud) ended up covering most of the bathroom floor. Luckily I brought my own towels and was able to clean it up fairly well. In the morning when I took a shower, everything was soaked - including the toilet - and there was a lake of water 2/3 of the way across the bathroom floor. The bed was tilted down towards the head of the bed, so it felt like I was on an inversion board. The pillow was the thickness of a napkin. Also, the pool was out of service. I have very little nice to say about this stay. It was a roof over our heads and not much comfort.

The location was right on the lake- that was pretty. We were notified 1-day prior to arrival that the pool was closed for service. There was a giant, construction style fence around the entire pool area that was very unsightly. “Sorry” was the extent of addressing the issue. Had I known, I’d have selected another spot simply to avoid the tremendous eyesore. The bottom of our door let in a tremendous amount of light. The door lock felt secure. You could tell there had been a freshening up of sorts with new materials throughout the room with the exception of smelly drapes. There was swampy lake access however it looked too difficult to navigate. This location included free parking and was roughly $100 cheaper than another spot I was interested in. It met my expectations of ‘motel’. There was a microwave and fridge in room.

Stayed for the weekend at Big Bear Frontier. The check-in process could have been smoother—was told I’d get a text when the room was ready, but it never came. After calling a few times (and getting hung up on), I finally confirmed the room was ready. The location, however, is excellent—right on the lake, next to a new bar, and walking distance to the Village. The room itself was clean and had a decent fridge, but the bed and pillows weren’t very comfortable. No housekeeping during the stay, which was fine for a short trip. Overall, I’d stay again and may try one of the cabins next time.
