Worst experience ever. Don’t waste your time or money. Dirty cabins, false advertising, tweekers and rude staff! Be sure and read all reviews including here and Yelp. The older lady with white hair in the front office is rude and lies. I’m surprised the Owner of this property allows this type of behavior towards customers. Much better places to stay in Big Bear!

BEWARE: Bait-and-switch. The room I booked online was not the room I was provided. There were dozens of rooms to select from so I was very specific in the room we chose. The room I was provided was dirty and rundown, had a completely different layout, had stained bedding, had spiders, and was disgusting. The property had definitely seen better days, maybe 30 years ago. The stairs were unsafe, with torn carpeting and bricks falling off or broken. When I asked the front desk to give us the room we paid for, they said Orbitz had assigned the rooms. Orbitz said it was the hotel. When I asked to cancel, the same issue. Neither would accept the responsibility for the gross room or the refund, each blaming the other.

If you are looking for a 5 star place to stay then this is not for you. If you are looking for a nice getaway for a weekend then this will be just fine. It is in a mountain community so you should expect just that.

Great little getaway
It was a really nice stay. Loved the hot tub and the pool. The room was a little on the old and dusty side and the plumbing fixtures had leaks but nothing too bad. Staff is very friendly, and I can’t wait to go back and bring my family on a family trip. They do have big cabins for families!

The studio room bed was advertised as a queen bed with a couch (this was the picture that was posted with the studio room), but it was a smaller full size bed with a mattress that was lumpy and uncomfortable. The free breakfast had limited hours,8-10am and the options were prepackaged and unappealing. I would not recommend this hotel.

Worst hotel staff
We had the worst experience at this lodge last night. We were attending Puppotopia in Big bear for our puppy and booked a room for a night at this place, as we live 2 hours away in Castaic! After checking in, we realized how small the ac unit was and how it wasn’t really cooling the room but we were only there for the night so we decided to suck it up and just follow through. From 7 pm to 10 pm, the unit above us kept making lots of noises and it was like so loud, felt like they were moving furniture and dribbling basketballs. My husband went to notify the front desk as there is no phone in this lodge … the lady upfront said she will check out what is going on upstairs but not sure if she did anything because noises didn’t stop. Then to make things worse, the roof started leaking. We didn’t notice but when we checked in, there must have been a hole in the ceiling and around 1030 pm, water was dripping on the bed. My husband went again to the front desk, in hopes someone could come take a look and maybe move us to a diff cottage… do anything… but the lady upfront suggested ‘oh just move your bed’… she had no empathy, she didn’t have the decency to apologize or even try to help us. We asked if we could get a refund as now we will need to leave here, in the middle of the night and drive home which is 2 hours away. Her response was I am not authorized and thats it. No recommendations, no understanding of what was happening and no customer service whatsoever… worst experience!

Loved our stay at Black Forest. Cabin was very cozy and perfect for our night stay, wished we had more time on this trip. Comfy bed, fireplace and spa tub perfect for relaxing after a day outdoors. Perfect location that was a quick drive or walk to the Village. Property was very nice and staff was very friendly with any questions we had.

The accommodation was so dirty and unsafe. The bed was covered with a blanket that made it clear that it had not been washed. The mattresses were hairy and furry, and I had to sleep on top of the blanket. I was angry that I came here after paying for it. The photos and explanations on the website are many wrong. We wasted the price of the room, but our condition was terrible because we couldn't sleep in an uncomfortable accommodation. We stopped taking our once-in-a-year vacation and came back home. I hope others don't make mistakes.
