My husband and I were looking for a getaway in the nature and I came across Postcard Cabins Big…read moreBear and next things I know we have been there twice in six weeks! First of all the cabin was really tiny even for just the two of us but it was very cozy. Everything was clean and pretty much everything you need in that space. One night stayed came with 3 wood bundles and a few starters which is enough through the whole dinner time.We didn't use kitchen inside the cabin at all.First time we cooked a steak on the bonfire and the second time I brought pre made food from home and just reheat it on the bonfire.Keep in mind,If you wanna grill anything on the fire you have to used Tinfoil and do not cook your meat directly on the grilled.(I think it was written somewhere) Inside cabin they provided an electric stove top,Plates and all kitchen utensils including dish soap and sponge. Both my husband and I have cell phone service just fine (Verizon) but when you're surrounded with that beautiful nature just leave your phone in the cellphone lockbox and forget about it (Just don't forget it when you check out) There were 2 electrical outlets that I saw so far inside the cabins.One was by the bed or by the dining table (Depend on which cabins you got) and another one next to toilet in the bathroom.Was it convenience? Not really but it's doable for us. Water pressure was good but used water one thing at the time.No sink and shower in the same time. There was no mirror or bathroom sink whatsoever,so get a lil creative of How you would put make up on or brush your teeth. Each cabins have there own individual parking,So don't worried about it. On the second visited there was cute deers walked by really close to our cabins.Love that! Customer service were great! Basically anything you need or any questions just text them. There was no front desk to check in or out.Before 4 pm which is check in time they will texted you the code and the instructions and then before check out time they will text you another code for check out.Easy and convenience. We can't wait to go back for the third time,Hopefully we can make it happen soon!

12/12/25 - 12/25/25…read more This was our last vacation before our baby would be born in March 2026. The drive down to the location wasn't bad, but it was pretty spooky the last 20 minutes or so going up the mountain since it was late at night when we arrived (10 PM). A huge plus for going here was that they are dog friendly. We had seen some reels of Postcard Cabins on Instagram and wanted to experience it for ourselves. Now if you like being cozy, this is the perfect place for you. BUT if you're the type of person that needs to stretch out and have lots and lots of space, don't even bother. My husband and I were interested in the tiny cabin experience and we wanted to unplug from the world a bit with just us three (me, Zach and our dog Coco) before our baby girl arrived. After we got ourselves situated, we pretty much passed out since we had been driving all day. What we failed to notice that first night was that the bed sheets had a big stain. Was it red wine or blood?....we didn't know, but I saw that after waking up the next morning. We texted Marriot (who owns the cabins) to have them changed, which they did later in the day because their staff start at 10:30AM. Our tiny cabin was equipped with a heater (didn't need that since we were warm inside) and A/C which unfortunately was not even cold. Upon entering the cabin, the door to the bathroom is on your right. The size of the bathroom (toilet and shower) is the size of a small closet with a teeny window to vent out smell. At least we get hot water for the shower thankfully. There's a small hot water tank that lives under the cabin. The bed is a size queen which is fine if you are used to that size mattress, but it was tight for us with me being 7 months pregnant and Coco sleeping on the bed with us (she's a 50lb dog). Complimentary items include: instant oatmeal, two water bottles, popcorn, 2 smokes kits and instant coffee. In the cabinets you'll find a kettle, a lighter, a lantern, cups, pots, plates and pans. Right by the cabin, there is a firewood starter kit and wood bundles. The view is pretty nice and the cabins are spaced out from each other so you have privacy. I would say overall it wasn't the best but it also wasn't too unpleasant of an experience. Maybe we'll try it again with our daughter sometime in the future.

Overall, I really enjoyed my stay here. While it was about 30 mins from where we were going every…read moreday, the view driving up and down the mountain was insanely gorgeous! My guy and I got in very late and we ended up waking the owner to check us in. He was sleepy, but didn't seem mad, which was good. We had no idea the front desk closes at 10pm. Seems like something that should be posted on their website or sent in the confirmation email, which is another thing. I was very nervous the day of my reservation because I hadn't received any communication from the lodge since the day I made the reservation months prior. I was praying that nothing with wrong and thankfully, we were good. We got a map of the town and some recommendations from the man on where to go while we were visiting. I always love it when there are places walking distance to where I'm staying. The weather was chilly in the mornings and at night and our heater was old. It stopped working halfway through the second night. We told the owner and he came out later the same day to work on it. He showed up unexpectantly and we were just glad we were still there. The room itself was really nice and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was the only place that could use an upgrade. I would come back here for sure. Not sure about coming in the summer as other reviewers say it gets uncomfortably hot, but when I went in October, I loved it.

We had an extremely disturbing experience at this hotel…read more After staying two nights, we discovered a large bed bug in our room (photo attached). This was not a tiny insect that just arrived. It was a fully grown bed bug, which strongly suggests an established infestation. What made the situation worse was how it was handled. When we reported it to management, the owner/office manager immediately tried to accuse us of bringing them, stating things like "they don't get there by themselves" and referencing his age and personal history instead of addressing the actual issue. This was incredibly unprofessional and dismissive. For context, I am 8 months pregnant, and we were visiting my husband's hometown. The last thing anyone in that situation should have to deal with is arguing with a hotel about basic cleanliness and safety. Eventually we were given a refund, but only after an uncomfortable interaction where responsibility was deflected rather than taken seriously. Bed bugs are a serious issue that require immediate and professional treatment. Instead of blaming guests, the priority should be properly inspecting and cleaning rooms to ensure no one else goes through this. Travelers should be aware and check their rooms carefully.

We stayed in a King Studio, which was the perfect size for two people--cozy but not cramped. The bed was super comfortable, and the pillows were just right, which made for a really good night's sleep. One of the best parts is the location. It's within walking distance to the downtown area, which made it easy to explore without having to drive everywhere. Parking is a bit tight but it was doable to get in and out. Parking in the front is probably the best option if you have a larger vehicle. Overall, a really solid stay and II'd definitely consider coming back.

Deek Creek is located about 25 minutes outside of Big Bear and the perfect spot to stay if you just…read moreneed to crash for a night or two. I can tell they likely renovated the rooms within the last few years. They have a modern feel to them and include a microwave and mini-fridge. They are very simple with the bare necessities (a few toiletries and towels). The room didn't have a hair dryer but they could have one at the front (I didn't ask). The bed and floors were clean, however the shower curtain was smudged with a previous person's makeup which was kind of gross. No cable or linked streaming service on the TV, just the free TV channels that come with the manufacturer. We stayed on the lower level and heard a lot of footsteps above us in the morning so beware the noises do travel. Parking is easy with a lot behind the back of the motel.

It had two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor which was perfect because I have mobility problems. The furnishings were very comfortable in the living room and included two couches and each of us relaxed alone on a couch which were facing each other, as we chatted and watched the sunset. My little dog also enjoyed the welcoming setting; it felt like home to all of us. The kitchen was excellently equipped. I hope to return with my daughter and her family of five. Upstairs had numerous beds and I think the house could easily handle 8-9 guests with beds. In the morning our breakfasts were excellent and prepared exactly as we wished. Again we had a beautiful view through a large window.

I would absolutely recommend staying here, cozy and quaint within walking distance to the village, our room was called Love Letter and had a gorgeous view of the lake, total of 9 rooms with ample parking gives you a feeling of staying at home rather than a hotel or Inn. Gail the manager, who has been there for only three months, was very nice and friendly and accepted us like family, they have their lobby filled with all sorts of snacks, coffee, tea, assorted fruits, fresh and delicious apples from the trees, chips, cereal and more, all open to the guests 24/7, she had even made homemade acorns with chocolate kiss on top, were delicious, all in all a great getaway, for sure a gem to be discovered.

The whole experience was great. Booking was super easy, pricing for the area was quite reasonable and then the actual space was super cute and fun. We stayed in the "Love Letter" room which had a fantastic view of the lake. The style was, as noted by previous reviewers, Victorian and beautifully done. We were greeted by Chris and given a tour of the spaces available to us which included a kitchenette stocked with snacks and goodies (midnight cereal, YES!), a wide selection of DVDs and board games. The room had a little fireplace, lounge room, large bathroom (no bathtub) and a super cozy bed. The ONLY thing that was less than perfect as that the blanket was a tiny stuffy smelling. We very much enjoyed this B&B. Be sure to check out the Belgian Waffle and the Village just across the way.

I wanted to…read morebook a Memorial Day weekend getaway with my husband and was planning to spend it at the mountains not too far from home. We just wanted to get away from the city. The last time that I was at Lake Arrowhead was during a 6th grade field trip, so I was curious to see how much the area had developed since then. The Saddleback Inn is located near Lake Arrowhead Village, which is a very short and convenient walking distance from the inn if you want to get out and explore. The Saddleback Inn is also adjacent to Diane's Saddleback Grill, a restaurant that is affiliated with the inn. Note: If you want to check in or out, the front desk is located inside the restaurant. Once you check in, you'll be directed to your reserved cottage, which individually stands apart from other cottages. I thought that was awesome because you get more privacy. There is also a 7-11 nearby if you want to grab snacks or drinks. Our cottage (#26) featured a King-sized bed, television, mini fridge, microwave, extra storage space, and a bathtub with jacuzzi jets. The Saddleback Inn is also pet-friendly, meaning both dogs AND cats are welcome to stay, considering that many lodging establishments don't really accept cats. We brought our cat with us during the trip, which she seemed to enjoy. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay at the Saddleback Inn and hope to return someday!

From food staff to receptionist to bar staff, everyone was so accommodating. One small thing though was the drinks from the bar tasted a bit funny. Both mine and my partner's drinks had this weird barbecue sauce flavor, which was odd! The lodge is a quick 20-minute (free) bus ride to the village, which is small but definitely worth a visit. :)

Amenities include swimming pool, jacuzzi, tennis courts, basketball court, sand volleyball court, hiking trail, WiFi, parking and an on-site restaurant. Cabin accommodations come in different configurations with most rooms including a fireplace and deck offering beautiful mountain or lake views. We've visited the lodge three times now. The last time was October 2020, and it was great to discover that UCLA continues to upgrade its facilities with new amenities including a tavern (they serve adult beverages!) as well as pickleball courts. We've enjoyed our visits every time, but IMO the cabins are due for a renovation/upgrade. After our most recent visit Memorial Day weekend, I would also warn guests to beware of oakworms or leafrollers (moth caterpillars that rappel down on silken threads) which seemed to be everywhere this time of year.
