When winter arrives, you're just minutes from snowshoeing adventures and the main ski resorts. The area offers charming holiday rentals with cosy fireplaces and lake views instead of hotels. Most visitors bring groceries from town since local dining options are limited.

"One of the best properties we stayed at during our 6 weeks touring the US. Property is gated and gives a sense of security. Reception staff were polite, friendly and provided a property map which was helpful. We loved that we got our own secure parking garage. Our accommodation was spacious, well cooled and spotless. The kitchen was impressive and they provided all necessary cooking utensils etc. My husband was particularly pleased to see we had a bathtub as well as a shower. Our balcony got the morning sun and overlooked the gardens. I would highly recommend this property which is also within walking distance of village shops and eateries."

"My second stay here, and it will be my place to stay everytime I am in Big Bear! Because it is close to Snow Summit and close to most if not all the major areas of Big Bear Lake too. I love the Hotel Vibes of Hampton Inn, because it's consistently always clean and welcoming. Parking is safe and secure with staff that are always friendly especially at this location. I've been going to Big Bear for 30 plus years, and as I get older, I prefer to stay at a Great Hotel with amenities that fit my lifestyle and use. I'm always in Big Bear mostly for the Snow Summit Bike Park season every year, and occasionally some hiking or 4 wheeling.. But from now on, I plan to stay here at this Hampton Inn for many more years and visits. I stayed again here for the weekend and the Beds are so comfortable and clean. Rooms are clean with updated Smart TV's, Microwaves and Fridges! Clean Bathrooms with modern styling that makes it easy and comfortable to stay. Staff are friendly and kind! Very helpful and knowledgeable too! Breakfast is super good too!!! Can't go wrong here! Thank you Hampton Inn Big Bear!"
