Big Bear Lake Hotel Guide - Bowling Barn hotels in Big Bear Lake, United States of America.

"This is our second trip to Bear Valley. Both times we have stayed in the same property. We love the facilities, the view from the room, the surrounding beauty, the pool, and the gym, among other things. Only two suggestion: (1)the carpets need steam cleaning very badly. (2)Extra pillows should have been provided because they are too flat."

"Very convenient. Close to shops and restaurants. Clean rooms. "

"I can’t ask for more.. no negative things about this beautiful place.. from the beginning to end of our stay, everything went well.. staffs are very friendly.. the lobby is beautiful with free coffee and popcorn.. our room is so comfortable and really well maintained property.. highly recommended!"

"Beautiful property!!"

"The service was top notch. I can not say enough good things about Terry at the front. The view in our room was amazing. I usually bring my own pillow but I forgot. The bed and the pillows were perfect!! I can not wait to plan a return trip! "

"We absolutely loved everything plus the staff is very friendly "

"Nice"

"Na"

"I loved that the location is just steps from the village—so many things are within easy walking distance. We were there for Oktoberfest and didn’t have to walk far to catch the free transit to the convention center. There’s even a German deli with beer across the steeet. Those were the big wins. The front desk staff were kind and helpful, and the property overall was clean. That said, it’s definitely dated. The bathroom towels were super thin—think 1-ply—and way too small for an adult (they barely wrap around you), so bring your own if you can. I was hoping to enjoy the pool, but it was small and awkwardly placed in the parking lot, so that was a no-go. The AC wasn’t working during my stay, though they did provide fans. The property could use some updates and repairs, but nothing was truly awful. It felt like I was visiting in the off-season; I imagine the place comes alive in the winter. There’s even a little on-site restaurant and bar with live music at night, which was a nice touch. Overall, it’s not as cute, modern, or comfortable as other Big Bear spots I’ve stayed at, but the unbeatable location in the heart of the village makes it worth considering—especially during the winter months"
