My husband and I wanted a midweek getaway and were happy to find a reservation. We were welcomed by Johann at the front door and shown to our room. We loved it!!! The accommodations were wonderful with access to town and both mountains for skiing. We will definitely be back again.

Best B&B I've ever been to
We went for a couples weekend getaway. There are so many great things to say about Alpenhorn. The location is great, the decor is nice, the owners were super awesome and the food was beyond what I expected, absolutely amazing!!! We were already planning our next visit while we were still there. Great place overall. Beds were a little firm for my taste but I am sure others would like it.

Amazing bed and breakfast
Not only were the accommodations excellent, the breakfast was like eating at a five-star cuisine. All of the ingredients are fresh and made it from scratch. Don’t stay in a generic cabin when you go to big bear. Come to this bed-and-breakfast! You won’t be sorry!

Alpenhorn couldn't have been better!
It was a pleasure to stay at the Alpenhorn B&B. Our stay was rejuvenating and exceeded all expectations. The house is located on a quiet street near the lake between a cute town with lots of restaurants, and Bear/Snow Summit. All are within walking distance or a 5-10 minute drive. The property has a nice backyard with trees and lounging chairs, and a few yard games. The best surprise was our host, Johann! He was very welcoming, kind and incidentally also happens to be an extraordinary chef. The hors d'oeuvres he served were among the best we've had. His cooking is creative and delicious! Also Johann was flexible with our schedule allowing us to make some changes to our reservation to accommodate our daughter's schedule. Our experience at Alpenhorn couldn't have been better!

What an amazing place!
We were greeted with an amazing spread of ordeurves and wine as soon as we stepped in through the door. And were hosted to such a high standard throughout our entire stay. We were made to feel completely at home. And the owners went above and beyond to make our stay a memorable one. We plan to return soon and being more family members. This place is a must if you are visiting Big Bear Lake.
