We were kindly upgraded by Timothy, the very astute and detail-oriented manager of the property. We stayed in Chalet 10 and the price was amazing for what we were given. Every interaction we had with him was professional. The property is older, and not "5-star" level, but it's quaint and beautiful, and definitely worth the price. My husband and I... More

Our family recently redeemed our LivingSocial voucher at the Inn Der Bach and met a couple friends up there to have a nice relaxing weekend. Something low-key where we could be outdoors and let the kids run around. We didn't really know what to expect as there were a couple bad reviews but we were pleasantly surprised. Seems the grounds... More

recently redeemed my http://LivingSocial.com voucher which seems to be very popular. I have spoken twice with Timothy who during booking and our stay was very friendly and helpful. Checked in to a clean, cozy and well stocked room in #10. Full set of clean white ceramic dishes, clean utensils, Calpahlon pots/pans (swank!), and Keurig brewer/coffees for breakfast. I would like... More

My husband and I spent a long weekend in Big Bear and stayed at the Inn Der Bach. Our chalet was clean and warm...perfect for resting in between days of skiing. While the grounds could use a makeover, if you can get a good deal to stay here... I would go for it. More

We had a great time. Big bear is calm and relaxing place. Leave LA behind! Timothy was great and if we needed anything all we had to do was ask. I was able to get Wi-Fi from my cabin Chalet #9. It's a Cabin not a 5 star hotel; the room had cable, a toaster, microwave and a fireplace. We... More

My family and I went to the Inn Der Bach recently for the Thanksgiving Weekend. We had a wonderful time. We stayed in Chalet #12 which is the upstairs rental. We had such a nice stay. This property is a quaint out of the way place and only has 12 units (if I counted right) plus a lodge with rooms... More

First of all, I want to mention that my boyfriend and I had a great time in Big Bear during our visit. We're both not fussy and really good about turning lemons into lemonade. That said, we would never stay at the Inn Der Bach again unless some serious (and truly minor, which is what makes it so sad and... More

I agree with Pleasantly Surprised (a previous review) wholeheartedly. We found the whole experience to be enjoyable. The chalet is comfortable, the rooms large, clean, microwave, coffee pot and the location (in Big Bear City, not Big Bear Lake) was, for us, desirable. The Chalet is located on a large parcel of land with views of the valley, etc. We... More

I just called to make reservations and the phone was answered by Timothy in the most unprofessional manner. When I questioned whether I had reached the correct establishment he responded with, "Didn't you hear the recording at the beginning of your call?!", in the most sarcastic tone. He proceeded to tell me the days I wanted were booked, I told... More

I must admit, that because of some of the earlier negative reviews, we were a bit concerned before we arrived at Inn Der Bach. Once we got there we found a friendly and attentive staff. Tim and his son are working feverishly to improve what was basically a neglected resort. Yes, the rooms are a bit dated and no, they... More
