De ce o iubesc oamenii

  • Prime lakefront location on the Shore Acres Lodge grounds
  • Access to a rare seasonal heated pool and boat dock
  • Historic 'original office' charm with a massive rock fireplace

Privire rapidă: A historic cabin with a killer location that is actively being let down by its management company.

Evaluat de @letsrowithit: I stayed here with the family and it was exactly the mountain reset we needed. The kids were obsessed with the game loft, which gave me plenty of quiet time to soak in the tub. Waking up to those pine trees every morning felt like a dream.

The hype

Guests love the walkability to the lake and the shared outdoor amenities like the pool and volleyball court.

Reality check

Maintenance is a constant struggle, with reports of smelly bathrooms, clogged toilets, and a 'slumlord' vibe from management when things break.

  • You want direct access to a boat dock and fishing
  • You need a place that sleeps 8 and allows pets
  • You plan to spend 90% of your time outdoors

Curățenie și Întreținere

4
  • Housekeeping: Hit or miss. High risk of finding cobwebs, dust, or missed spots from previous guests.
  • Bathroom hygiene: CRITICAL FAILURE. Reports of leaking toilets, smells, and vibrating pipes. Inspect immediately upon arrival.
  • Maintenance: Poor. Broken handles, clogged drains, and 'slumlord' vibes reported by frustrated guests.
  • Linens & towels: Basic, industrial quality. Bring your own pillow if you're picky.
  • Odors & scents: Often described as musty or smelling of old plumbing.

Înainte să rezervi

Bine de știut

  • Check-in is at a separate office (41693 Big Bear Blvd), not at the cabin itself.
  • You must take your own trash to a disposal site or face steep fines.
  • The 'Game Room' amenities (ping pong) are likely outdoors/shared, not inside your living room.

Ce să împachezi

  • Extra toilet paper and paper towels (starter kits are stingy)
  • Slippers (floors can be dirty/splintery)
  • Earplugs for the thin walls

Selecții de top

  • Lodge House #100 is a standalone unit, but 'Lakefront #110' in the same complex offers better direct water views if available.

Camere de evitat

  • Lodge House #100 if you have a sensitive nose—persistent bathroom odor complaints are a red flag.

Întrebări frecvente și sfaturi ascunse

Tot ceea ce vrei de fapt să știi înainte de a rezerva.

Is the pool open year-round?

No. The Shore Acres Lodge pool is heated but only open from Memorial Day to Labor Day.

Is it pet friendly?

Yes, pets are allowed, but expect a non-refundable pet fee (usually ~$40/night).

Does it have AC?

No. Like most Big Bear cabins, it relies on ceiling fans and mountain breeze. It can get hot in July/August.

Is the kitchen fully stocked?

It has the basics (fridge, stove, microwave), but bring your own spices, oil, and specialized cookware.

How far is the Village?

It's about a 15-minute walk (0.8 miles) to the main Village area.

Is there a private hot tub?

No. This unit typically shares the community spa (seasonal). Some other units in the complex have private ones, but not this one.

Sfaturi de Insider

  • ✨

    The 'boat dock' is shared and water-level dependent—call ahead to check if it's actually usable.

  • ✨

    There is a fish cleaning station on the grounds, which is a huge plus for anglers.

  • ✨

    The 'pool table' listed in some amenities is often the outdoor concrete ping-pong table or in a shared space—don't count on a private billiards room.

5 lucruri pe care trebuie să le știi înainte să pleci
