Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great location & Comfortable cabin I spent 9 nights in Lakewood cabin during the Christmas break. Jenny is a great host & onsite manager Dave is helpful & friendly. I stayed in both cabin #7 & #11, both are very comfortable. The location is great, it is closed to the village, and the ski resorts are not far away by driving. I ski in Snow Summit, it is 5 minutes driving time for me (without traffic.). The cabin is very clean, I walked with my bare feet, and they never got dirty. The cabin is very warm in the cold winter night, there is heater & fireplace. Water pressure in the shower is great. It is very quiet in the night, we slept very well every night during our stay. It is a kid friendly place, my son enjoyed the playground & roasted marshmallows by the fire pit, built snowman & had snowball fight with me.

Our visit to Lakewood Cabins started off reasonably well but went downhill severely, to the point I did not feel safe, ended up putting a bench under the cabin's front door and ensured all windows were locked. My actions were a direct result of the confrontational, aggressive manner the on-site cabin manager (Dave) had toward my husband and my girlfriend's husband when he accused them of being in "violation" of the rental contract. Which is a false accusation, per the air b n b contract my husband agreed to at the time of his booking, no rules were broken. Any house rules, limitations, or local ordinances should be outlined specifically in the initial booking and not tried to be added and subsequently enforced after the fact. Managerial feedback: If you do approach a guest you feel is in violation, I suggest taking a moment to assess the situation, and then approach them in a calm, diplomatic and hospitable manner as confronting aggressively puts individuals on the defensive and makes them feel attacked and question their personal safety. My experience with the cabin... Cabin 7 was one of the nicer cabin options available (nearly $400 a night) and had glowing reviews, and I feel short changed that we did not have the same experience. The bed was smaller than expected, and while it was labeled a queen it only measured 59" x 79" and the metal frame creaked with every move. Additionally, the toilet kept kicking on to refill the water tank every hour or so, both sounds were disruptive to sleep and our relaxation. Also the cabin manager lives in the front cabin (very close to Cabin Seven) and in our experience he was very aware of when we came and went. It made us very comfortable as mentioned below. I would highly recommend doing your research and reviewing all the yelp reviews, even the ones that might be filtered out, prior to booking at Lakewood Cabins. A recap of our evening.... I should preface, this is the first time my husband and I have gotten away solo since the arrival of our daughter two years ago and we desperately were looking to relax. We felt Big Bear was just the place, particularly in early Fall. This is also the first time in a long while that we've been able to gather sans-children, with my brother and sister-in-law and our close family friends, who also have young children. We were having a lovely evening and had enjoyed dinner at Peppercorn Grille followed by a horse-drawn carriage ride around the village. We wanted to continue catching up so we mentioned we had a cabin nearby with a fireplace and could continue there, we'd just need to pick up a couple duraflame logs. My girlfriend and I drove to the cabin and I parked in our designated spot, per the instructions Dave, the cabin manager, provided at check-in. My brother and sister in-law (who is 7 months pregnant and lives with her husband an hour away) followed behind in their car and parked on the street. My husband and my girlfriend's husband went to the market to get the duraflame logs. The four of us waited in the cabin for them to return and enjoyed light conversation. We were not drinking alcohol out of solidarity for my pregnant sister-in law and husband and I had an early morning hike. About 30 minutes later (around 9:30 pm) my husband and my girlfriend's husband returned with some groceries and then went back to the car to retrieve the box of fire logs. All of us indoors noticed how long this second trip was taking them and I got up and looked out the front door to witness the cabin manager yelling at my husband and friend while holding up his iPad trying to show them something on the screen. Knowing they are fully capable of handling escalated situations, as they both do so for a living, I went back inside and let my visitors know the manager seemed to be arguing with them about something. A few minutes later my husband and friend came back to the cabin and gave us an overview of what was happening. All of us were in disbelief at how unprofessionally Dave handled the situation of us having visitors. He angrily threatened to "call the cops" and tow our vehicles, to which my husband encouraged him to do so, and subsequently went back to confirm Dave had in-fact called them. Dave was not being reasonable and was agitated and having law enforcement present would be the best course of action. I was so unsettled that I actually packed all of my things in preparation to leave. We were grateful when the San Bernardino County Sheriff arrived to help mediate the situation. The Deputy was respectful and professional and his arrival thankfully meant we didn't have to interact with the cabin manager again. The Deputy advised us of a city ordinance for street parking and recommended we move our visitors' cars to the public lots, which we did promptly, and we told him our friends would be leaving within the hour as one couple had their own hotel accommodations and other lived about an hour away. I have traveled extensively and normally stay at higher-end hotels but Big Bear is small, rustic and doesn't have those options. In my experience, it is a reasonable expectation to be able to have visitors in your room so long as they do not stay overnight and you keep the noise level low. Apparently the host, Jenny, who lives in LA and has Dave manage all the on-site operations, does not allow visitors of any kind but this was not relayed to us in our booking. I was literally trembling and anxious from the situation and once our visitors left I made sure to lock all the windows and put a bench under the door, so I would hear it move should anyone try to enter. Neither my husband or I could sleep well, I actually was jarred awake in the middle of the night thinking I heard the bench move and someone was trying to enter the cabin, my husband assuring everything was OK. A couple of hours later I woke to my husband having a dream and audibly arguing with someone, likely a result of evenings events. This situation put a black cloud on the trip, where its intention was to relax and recharge, and we were left depleted of energy and enjoyment. Out of fear of retaliation, we videoed the cabin's condition when we checked-out (almost an hour early) to have documentation. We sent the host a message on the air b n b app letting her know we checked out and wanted to coordinate a phone call with her to discuss, she has yet to respond, but was able to comment on my husband's air b n b review and yelp review. Additionally, she left the derogatory review on my air b n b account and I wasn't even the one who booked it, but that's a whole different matter.

If I could give this place zero stars that’s exactly what I would rate it. My husband and I checked in over Christmas hoping for a nice quiet getaway for a couple of days. When we checked in, I was disgusted by blood stained sheets, stains on the towels, hair on the bathroom floor and a dirt ring in the toilet and bathtub. The wood floors were also so dirty that when I dampened a paper towel, it was almost black. We called the front desk to let them know and when the housekeeper arrived, she did not come with a mop but merely a spray bottle and did not clean the bathroom an d at that point we did not even want to use the replacement sheets or towels. This place made my skin crawl and while it had a very pretty view of the lake, there’s a reason this place is called cabins for less. When I let management know upon check out that I would like a partial credit for my stay because of the conditions the cabin was left in when we checked in, he refused and said he had no reason to do so! Unless you’re looking to contract something, I would stay away.

We come up frequently and usually stay in the cabin that belongs to hubby's work. On occasion it's not available and we need to find alternate accommodations. The Lakewood Cabins is now our go-to place for those weekend trips. Small little studio and one-bedroom cabins so you're not dealing with neighbors above you or neighbors in an adjoining room making noise. We stayed in cabin 10 which is a studio. Nice comfortable, queen size bed, nice fireplace, kitchenette, clean & warm. If you're looking for a 5-star hotel experience with all the crazy amenities that go with it these are not for you. These are rustic little cabins that fit the bill for a quiet, warm, comfortable, clean place to stay while you're up the mountain. They are updated, easy to get to and are super convenient to just about everything, walking distance to the Village, walking distance to the Grizzly Bear Manor for a great breakfast. And a super reasonable price really can't beat it for the price. · Honestly there really wasn't anything about this place that I didn't like. I guess if I needed to make a suggestion it would be screen doors so you can open up more than just the windows and get some of that clean mountain air coming through the room. Also ditch the 99 cent room fresheners. For someone who has allergies and is sensitive to smells it was a bit overwhelming when we first got there. Easily resolved issue by just closing the room freshener and opening up the windows for about an hour.

This is my second time staying here but first time in Cabin 11. The bed was horrible, noisy and like a hammock. The cabin itself was cute but not much counter space. We were provided with a large noisy floor fan that we didn’t use because it was so loud so the cabin was warmer than we preferred. We had the windows open but for the 2nd year in a row the dog across the street kept us awake with its barking. If you stay here, don’t stay in cabins 10 or 11.

I just went to one of the cabins and we had a great time! We went with our kids so we especially loved that it had a private playground and was within walking distance to the lake, restaurants and stores, no need to drive anywhere. The cabin itself was warm and cozy. The fire pit and seating area right outside were also awesome, perfect for relaxing while watching our kids playing. The check in was super easy also, the manager was very helpful and attentive. Loved this place very much!! Will definitely be going back to these cabins again.

The cabins reminded me of older Forest Service cabins. We stayed in cabin 10 which is a studio cabin with a queen bed. It was fairly warm the weekend we were there and there is no air conditioning or ceiling fan. There was a fan provided but it didnt move much air unless you had it on high. The kitchenette had a small microwave, small refrigerator with an iced over freezer, convection oven and coffee maker. The utensils lacked spoons and there were no bowls. One of the drinking glasses was a plastic Big Gulp cup. Nothing matched but that's where it reminded me of an old cabin whose kitchen is furnished with cast offs from someone's kitchen. The bed was comfortable but the couch was not. It was reasonably priced and suited our needs. Very quiet except the yapping dog across the street. The wifi connection wasn't very good but we had 5 bars on Verizon so it didn't matter. These cabins would greatly benefit from a ceiling fan and screen doors. Also more utensils and dishes.

I hoped for a romantic vacation but it was no where close to one. The room door was broken looked like someone broke in and we felt unsafe. Half the time there was no hot water. Bathroom was stuck. Bathroom sink was clogged. Kitchen didn't have a stove. We had the heater on as it was cold and it constantly made thins very loud knocking sound Our bed felt old and uncomfortable and the small red couch was also old, hard, and it had what it looked like a lot of dog hairs. I would not recommend.
