We've stayed at Forest Shores Inn for almost 10 years, at Thanksgiving. The 2-bedroom units we've used have been wonderful. Suddenly this year, without explanation, we were informed by the managers at the Marina Resort that they would not rent to us. Since we'd had such a long, happy experience with Forest Shores, we asked for the reason, with every... More

Upon inquiring at the Marina R esort, we were told about the condos for rent within 100 yards which had dock priveleges. The managers of... More

We (myself and two co-workers, each with our own rooms) stayed at Forest Shores Inn instead of Northwoods because our boss wanted to save some money. You get what you pay for! 1) My room had two lamps that did not work because the bulbs were burnt. 2) The carpet was not vacuumed since there was white lint all over... More

Looking for a "nearby" quick summer vacation spot for our family when I stumbled across Forest Shores Inn, Big Bear on the internet. It caught my eye with its appeal, value, and accomodations. Horseriding, mountain hiking, fishing, and lake recreation all at our back door, literally. Picture perfect for our family of 4 and one of our children's guest. Best... More
