Very friendly staff. Easy check in! Dated property, but that is the norm for the area. Was perfect for our family’s needs. Will definitely stay again. Oh, best part is everything is easily walkable, since it’s right in the Village.

5/5 Stars - A Cozy and Relaxing Stay! We had an amazing experience at SoCal Vacations - Village Inn at Big Bear! The room was cozy and had everything we needed for a memorable getaway. The fireplace was a highlight, keeping us warm and providing the perfect ambiance for making s’mores. The kitchen was fully equipped, and I was able to use the stove and oven to cook breakfast and bake cookies, which made our stay feel just like home. A heads-up: the smoke detector is a bit sensitive, so be careful while cooking! The hot tub in the middle of the living room was such a unique feature and worked perfectly after a long, cold day exploring. It was clean, the jets were powerful, and it provided the ultimate relaxation. The only minor downside was that it took about 45 minutes to fill, but we never ran into any issues with running out of hot water. However, one thing to note is that the blinds in the corner of the room were broken, so we had to hang a towel over the window for extra privacy while using the hot tub. Overall, this was a wonderful stay, and we loved taking advantage of all the amenities. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a cozy and fun retreat in Big Bear!

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!
