We stayed in cabin #21 which is touted to be "cozy". The furniture was very shabby, the flour sloped so much you had to be very careful not to stumble. The worst thing was that it was freezing in the cabin. Air flowed in around the windows and door and around the fireplace. The heater had a slight gas odor... More

Small and basic, but clean and warm. The gas fireplace kept the place very comfortable. Cabin is on the main road, so there is a lot of traffic when the crowds are visiting town. Not safe if you have small children that could run off to the street. Icy during the winter. The driveway to the cabin was not cleaned... More

For the past 10 years my family has been visiting Big Bear during the summer time, and we always stay at the Golden Bear. The cabins are the perfect sizes for all families and everything is close together so everyone can visit each other. They have a great pool and a fun recreation place where people can play volleyball and... More

We stayed in cabin #10 the first week of August for a large family reunion. Other members of my extended family had other cabins, so I got to see several other cabins. The cabins that I saw were all adequate furnished and decorated, but if you are expecting or wanting something fancy, do not stay here. Cabin #10 was furnished... More
