Top Cougar Crest Trailhead Hotel Reviews

Getaways at Lagonita Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Lagonita definitely has a nostalgic charm. The decor is from a bygone era and perfect for those who delight in a "retro" feel. The location is beautiful and the staff were very nice, too. Resort offers daily activities, games, and indoor pool and jacuzzi. They also have both family and adult only amenities. We'd definitely return!"

Fireside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff is so nice. We were going to check in late and the day before our reservations, we called them to let them know and he said not to worry. When we called and said we’re an hour an away, the gentleman at the desk said no worries I will be here! When we got there he was there checked us in and was super nice. Later the next day the breaker went out because I had the heater on while blow drying my hair and the hotel staff fixed everything in about 10 min! Our room had a stove and some of the rooms are suites! Loved it here and already planning a family vacation for one of the suites in a few months! Yes this place is dates, but it’s charming, clean and has a great staff! Definitely coming here again in a few months!"

The Burgundy

"My stay here was perfect! Our cabin was incredibly cozy and exactly what me and my partner were looking for in Big Bear! It was walking distance from the village center, the lake, coffee, and breakfast! I enjoyed everything from the in-cabin fireplace, the pool, jacuzzi, the lounge for perfect for reading, and on top of that the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful whenever I had a question or needed something (like extra towels). I would recommend The Burgundy to anyone staying in Big Bear, and I will definitely be coming back! :)"
