Frank's Big Bear Artist Retreat |

WE had a great time. The heat system was perfect. We loved the view. The water changed colors over the hills during the day and made a wonderful backdrop to paint. In fact I painted a picture of the view from the cabin.

Wonderful Family Vacation |

| We stayed at Frank's Old Bear for Thanksgiving week and it was awesome. There was plenty of room for us, our 4 kids (ages 7, 7, 6 and 4), 2 dogs and even my father in law who came up for Thanksgiving day. The kitchen was very well stocked, even for cooking a holiday meal, (all I had to buy was a disposable roasting pan for the turkey) there was even a meat thermometer. The kids all fit well in the bedroom (which appears to have been upgraded because it had new quilts on the bed (just saw them at Target) and some really warm fuzzy extra blankets that the kids loved), and it had a tv which was a bonus since they don't have one in their room at home. We loved the fact that the lake was right there so if one of the kids got cold while fishing they could go back to the cabin and we could keep an eye on the house too. Fishing was great and they all caught lots of trout for dinner. We even made use of the playground. The fenced yard was a huge bonus because the dogs could run around without worries, and my kids would have never gone away for a week without taking their dogs. Needless to say none of us wanted to leave. The kids asked if we could just stay and live there, so I guess we will definitely be going back to Frank's again. We had a wonderful and relaxing week and were very comfortable in the house! Thank you. |

Cozy place to stay - great for fishing |

| The place is cozy. If you are looking for an upscale place to stay at, this place is not for you. It is not the nicest place on the lake, but at the same time it is comfortable and great for the simple minded people. The view is great. Excellent for fishing. If you arrive at night it's a little hard to find the place. Would stay there again. |

| My husband and I celebrated our anniversary on Big Bear Lake. It was a perfect place for relaxation and recreation. Our dogs loved the lake and fenced yard at the home! We enjoyed hiking, biking and beautiful sunsets. Big Bear Vacations were professional and friendly, they made our stay very pleasant. We highly recommend booking with BBV! |

Shore Acres - Great Vacation Spot |

| Franks Old Bear and Shore Acres is a great place to spend your summer. This was our 14th summer at Shore Acres for our family of 5. Our children have literally grown up enjoying the swings, pool, playground and fishing when they were young to enjoying the pingpong, badmitton, horseshoes, tubing and wakeboarding as they have grown older. To help complete our summer of delight, the owner and fantastic staff hold a Monday night BBQ each week with live music so all the guests and their children can meet and mingle. A great vacation spot for the young and old. |

Not worth the $$$$ |

| If you're willing to pay for the view alone, then stay here. The view was incredible. The house, on the other hand, has major issues. When I first walked in I thought the blinds were nicotine stained, but they're just a funky color. Peeling paint outside, peeling paint inside, pipes exposed in the wall (10" x 3.5" area)in the back bathroom, we found a pink pair of little girl's underwear under the t.v., ants in the kitchen and back bathroom, my father stayed in the lower bunk which had sheets that must've been as old as he is (he's 87)they were once white but are now just dingy tannish, the comforters on the beds have some sort of plastic on the inside which "crunch" whenever they are moved, glad I brought my own pillows as the ones provided were also too old to still be in use, and the general public is allowed to drive down through Shore Acres Lodge and in front of this little place to go fishing. It's a real shame because this place could be adorable if it were taken care of. What a bummer. It was nice to have a fenced back yard area for our dogs and the stove is almost brand new. |

| Thank you for taking the time to write a review on Frank's Old Bear. This is an old rustic cabin located at one of the best fishing spots on the lake. We have reviewed our cleaning standards with our housekeeping department to ensure all of our guests check-in to a clean house. We are working with the homeowner to update some of the furnishings of this home. |
