Very old fashion rooms. Twin queen beds were comfortable but dated. I liked the den area were your group can get together and talk. Breakfast was excellent and the staff very friendly.
The hosts were very nice and accommodating. The room was very comfortable. The breakfast each morning was great! And I also enjoyed the common area lounge and hot tub. Would definitely stay at the Big Bears Lodge again!
An old style inn that has a charm and comfort that makes it a great ski vacation accommodation for a couple. The owners were lovely and its conveniently located to the town.
Very nice, friendly staff. Great breakfast and wonderful, convenient location.

Very quaint place to stay; the owners are sweet and considerate! They make the place feel like a safe get-away to somewhere nostalgic. I will definitely be booking a stay here again!
This is a very comfortable, simple inn. The owners are attentive and the breakfasts are very good--great value for the area. We also enjoyed the English couple operating the place--very engaging and accommodating. We would definitely stay there again if we find ourselves in the area.
The big bear lodge is a pretty great place to stay owners are super nice everything was clean each room has its own setup with different styles breakfast was great, the only thing is if you want snacks or drinks they do not have vending machines or ice machine so bring a cooler with you and snack other than that a super great place to stay !!!!
The property is conveniently located in close proximity to Mt Snow and local restaurants. The staff is friendly. There's a big screen tv room with fireplace and a small sitting room to read or just converse. Rooms are a little dated but clean. Would stay again.
Hot tub was nice and hot, fits 6 people so could get a little crowded if they are booked up. the property is dated but kept up very well. Breakfast was perfect and made to order. Eggs with bacon or sausage, french toast. Simple but all you need before going out to ski in the morning.
Overal a great stay, my family and I spent 2 night's. Steps away from mount snow, the owners were friendly and helpful. Breakfast, while limited was an easy option before hitting the slopes.. if you want some where thats hommie, safe and family friendly this is it. We will definitely be back.
The owners were welcoming and lovely. The breakfast was home cooked to order.
Slightly disappointed the hot tub was out of order during our stay.
Will return, the location is perfect if you are skiing at Mount Snow!
