Big Bear Frontier

8/10 Good
"The room was super clean and a/c worked very well. The lake was right there with a dock . Fishing was excellent. The only thing that was a minor issue was the fire pits don’t turn on until 8 pm ( should be more like 7 ) Also the grills got very little propane so it took a while to cook . Otherwise it was great . Will stay here again."
