Lagonita Lodge
We've stayed here several times and at times for more than a week. The rooms are nice size and it's a great location. My pet peeve is that the dispensers in the shower (for shampoo ect) are always empty. Otherwise, it is a good value.

Holiday Inn Resort The Lodge At Big Bear Lake by IHG
We did not get a balcony room as requested. The window in the room did not lock and they could not fix it so they moved us to a new room. The new rooms on the third floor AC was working so we slept in a hot room, therefore no sleep.
