Once we finished he gave us great recommendations for places to eat and other things to do around town. Overall 10/10! This was definitely an experience that I'll do again.

This year we need to extend our rental an extra day and that was painless as well. When you come back to return, just drop off outside and show them your paperwork, it's a very quick process. Just a tip, there are 2 locations pretty close to each other so remember which one you rented from. :)

First of all, e bikes were a game changer for us during our week in Big Bear. It was SO fun to…read morepedal or just zip around, and the bikes from getboards are really easy to use! The town is bike friendly and we avoided so much traffic and hassle getting around town for shopping, meals, and exploring. We had a basket on one bike, bungee chord on one, and my backpack made it easy for us to do most shopping we needed for the week without using the car. We reserved our bikes well ahead of our visit to ensure we'd have what we needed. We selected GetBoards because they offered overnight pricing and a range of bikes to meet our needs. We reserved two cruiser style bikes for around-town use but I upgraded to an adventure style bike since it was more comfortable for me to ride. I'm 6', my wife is 5'3", and we were both very comfortable on our bikes. The prices were fair and competitive. We know this because we shopped around before reserving. There was a modest, discounted overnight fee, but with our multi-day rental discount e bikes were an affordable addition to our stay. Matthew helped me when I picked up the bikes and he was friendly, informative, and super patient given it was our first time using e bikes. He ensured I knew how to use the bikes, checked that the headlights were working on both bikes, and set us up with helmets, locks, and chargers before sending us off. We will most definitely rent e bikes from GetBoards the next time we're here. I highly recommend GetBoards for top notch customer service, excellent and well maintained bikes, and a range of rental options to meet any needs (including bikes with kid seats, trailers for children or pets, baskets, and more).

We were referred to Tony by a friend and drove up to Big Bear to view the ski selection and rent several pairs for the entire season. Tony and his crew were incredibly welcoming, professional, and caring. They took the time to walk my daughter and me through all of the equipment she needed. We ended up renting ski boots, GS, SL, and powder skis, and my daughter has thoroughly enjoyed them so far. In fact, the high-quality equipment, along with Tony's expertise in selecting and tuning the right sizes, has been a major contribution to my daughter's great season so far. Thank you very much, Tony, and the team at Getboards.

A special thanks to the owner, Alexis, for running such a fantastic operation and hiring such efficient, top-tier staff.

I'm not sure if all kayak places have this, but it was nice that they had pads specifically for dogs to sit/lay on so that they're comfortable.

In one corner, there's everything you need to know or buy for a ski resort experience, ticketing, souvenirs, T-shirts, sweatshirts, postcards (I admired the wooden ones), Christmas ornaments, even dog sweaters. The woman working this station was kind and friendly. In the center, a large model map of Big Bear is there for viewing and the main counter for information on everything Big Bear. There's a wall of pamphlets for recreation, restaurant guides and hiking trail maps. I took a couple stickers and a hiking trail map while listening to the main Information Manager speak on the phone in a kind and understanding manner while some entitled person ran the poor woman through the wringer about why this and why that isn't discounted etc. The information manager never broke character on her professional stance and continued for no less than 15 minutes of warding off some maniacal caller. I felt for her. These women deserve better. I originally wanted to go in for their 'Care for Big Bear' kit, since I'm all about that idea. However, the caller took over our visit. We will try again in a week or two. I remember the old location on Bartlett, it was nice too. This new location is so beautiful. You're doing a great job Visitors Center. We Love Our Big Bear!
