The hype
Families love the space and the kitchen, but everyone hates the paid Wi-Fi and the noise from upstairs neighbors.
Worldmark Big Bear Lake - Extra Holidays
$150-250 / нощ
Запазете го, ако You want a full condo with a kitchen for a family ski trip and don't mind a 'suburban dad' timeshare vibe.
Защо хората я обичат
- Full kitchens and gas fireplaces in every unit
- Walking distance to the lake and a short drive to Snow Summit
- Year-round outdoor hot tubs that actually stay hot
Бързо резюме: A functional, unsexy basecamp that offers great utility but zero boutique charm and thin walls.
Преглеждано от @MarieAguirre-Bunch3961720: I stayed here with my group and honestly, the space was a lifesaver. Having a full kitchen to cook breakfast and a washer/dryer meant we could pack light and relax. It’s got that cozy cabin vibe but with way more room than a standard hotel.

Чистота и поддръжка
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, but don't expect daily hotel-style turndown. It's a condo rental.
- Bathroom hygiene: Clean but dated. Grout lines show age in unrenovated units.
- Maintenance: Solid, though the 'interior renovations' in 2025 are addressing long-standing wear and tear.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel grade. clean and crisp, but not luxury thread counts.
- Odors & scents: Neutral to slightly musty in older carpeted units; fresh mountain air outside.

The 'Special Needs' units have roll-in showers and are always on the ground floor—good for accessibility but bad for noise.

There is a 'Starvation Flats' road sign nearby that makes for a grimly funny photo op.

You can walk to the Stanfield Marsh Wildlife Preserve boardwalk in about 10 minutes for a peaceful morning stroll.
