Big Bear Village Stay
Small clean, cozy facility. Amazing time in Big Bear, and this place made it over the top. Small kitchen and living room with everything you need to cook, watch TV by the fireplace or people watch from the window overlooking Big Bear Village. Lots of shops and restaurants adjacent.

We really enjoyed!
The location! It’s middle of the village. We walked around with our dogs and enjoyed our stay. Very warm rooms. We really like this place. The owner(?) is ver accommodating. We will be back. Two things we noticed: There was not enough hot water for the bath. The lock system is good but you can hear the other guests’ beeping sounds whenever they open/lock the doors.

Took a one daycation to Big Bear just because . It was a choice between holiday ins or socal villa . We stayed at Villa . The location couldn’t be any better . We stay at BlackBear and the window outside was spectacular. We see all the Christmas decorations and people outside just having a good time . Room was nice and clean . Except one thing was really off . The fridge ! Man, that fridge is loud ! Need to replace that fridge asap .

Great space! But...
Really nice and cozy space. Fully stocked apartment like room steps from the village. Good marks all around except for a few things, such as having 2 beds but listed as only sleeping 2 people. We unfortunately had to book another room at a hotel next door for our 2 additional family members. They wouldn't allow more than 2 in the room. Also the couch bed bracket was broken when we got there, still folded out but we couldn't fold it back in. Other than that we had a great time

Amazing Value. Unbeatable Location!
I had an amazing solo stay at SoCal in Big Bear Lake! The space was perfect—comfortable, clean, and in an ideal location close to everything I wanted to explore. The value for the price was unbeatable, especially for the quality of the accommodations. Communication was clear and friendly, and the staff were incredibly professional, ensuring I had everything I needed for a great stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway, and I can't wait to return!

This was the perfect place for us to spend a night in big bear. The space was large and had a lot to offer. Our favorite is the jacuzzi tub! We were also able to walk to get something to eat after a long drive in less than a minute! The host was extremely communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. Thanks!
