Top Cougar Crest Trailhead Hotel Reviews

Bluegreen Vacations Big Bear Village, an Ascend Collection Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and loved the place overall."

Lagonita Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Our room at the Lodge would be perfect for summer or winter as there is a nice fireplace. The kitchen was clean and well stocked. The balcony had a nice view of the lake. The staff were friendly and very helpful. There is a play place for kids and friendly ducks to feed. It is close to everything you could need but is isolated enough to be quiet. I would highly recommend it!"

The Burgundy

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing. I called the night before asking about extending and found out we got upgraded because there was a booking issue ! super sweet staff. only used the spa in the room once , shower water pressure wasn’t good but that’s to be expected at a hotel! bed was comfortable. i love the fact its a keyless entry door. walls are thin but that’s to be expected. Husband and i will definitely be back! so glad we were able to spend our honeymoon here!"

Hotel Marina Riviera

8/10 Good

"Everything was great! Friendly staff, Beautiful location. Great view. The restaurant was great. Walking distance to the Village. Short drive to everything else. Only problem was our AC unit started leaking onto the floor. They were very apologetic and tried to fix it right away but the problem did continue until we left. They did give us a discount for the inconvenience. Besides that I highly recommend this hotel! We will return!"

Vintage Lakeside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is the perfect place to spend a nice quiet weekend away. Great park your car and walk everywhere you want go arround the village. Or just stay there and hand out at the restaurant at the end of the property, it's wonderful. The outside seating is basically on the lake. You can literally walk out your door, turn and you see and can walk down to the lake. It's name is what it is "vintage". It's a lovely version of an old 60's roadside motel. Some upgrades with technology but not much. A wonderful small staff that care about your stay. They even have set up chairs, tables, and umbrellas accross the driveway, right across from the rooms for smokers. Only down side is no ac. They really don't need it for more than more than two to three weeks out of the year, and the do provide a fans, but the only way to get air movement in the rooms is to have the window open. The breeze cools down a stuffy room very quickly. It's set in a great location and you might think it may be loud with car with car traffic but our Saturday night stay was calm and quiet. Would stay again."

Fireside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great in accommodating my request to stay an extra night. AC was great, heat was great, fridge and TV also great. I did not use internet, (I did not intend to) was a nice pleasant escape. Most things I was interested in were within walking distance. Pool was clean and deep, most places don't have deep pools anymore. SPECIAL call out to the guy who checked me in, I did not get his name. The property does need some TLC, and cleanup, but nothing which would prevent me from visiting again, probably soon."
