Natasha at reception was very friendly. Room was clean and modern. Unfortunately we had to cut our stay short due to the wildfires in the area but Natasha helped arrange for us to get a refund for the remaining night. Great customer service.

What a surprise this little gem is! Booked a night just to get away and wished I had stayed longer. As you pull in, there is a beautiful carriage awaiting your arrival at the front of the property, along with a refreshing pool, corn hole games and fire pits. For the adults, the facility offers its own bar for hotel guests only and is a mediation haven. Incredible sound bath experience that left me wanting to book my next trip to Sessions! I’m definitely heading back for the end of summer/fall beauty!

Very cute cabin. Great art, furniture and accessories. Very clean. There was a fan that helped cool down at night. Check in process was still under development but all worked out! The main road had traffic all night so if quiet is important to you, ask for a room away from it!

The rooms are great and unique, I love the art style in the rooms and outside too. I feel like it fits my vibe, and is not a cold corporate looking hotel. It’s also very dog friendly, and conveniently located near everything you may need, including spots that are vegan friendly. I fully recommend staying here. I’ve already recommended it to everyone in my friend group.

This hotel has shared kitchen on the bottom floor where you could store food (labeling them so nobody else takes it). My remote control was not working to the television unit, and the host was gracious enough to come back in the evening to see what was happening; he ended up replacing the television on the spot. Friendly staff!

This was our second time at Sessions. We really liked it because the staff is friendly and the rooms are very clean. They didn’t disappoint again. I will never stay anywhere else when staying at Big Bear.

Room was spacious & clean. Amazinly priced, but when i tried to extend an extra night price went up so ended up getting a cabin else where. Didnt try pool, because no one gave an answer as to what time it closed. Also no ac only fan was provided. So wasnt too bad but still hot in room.

Nice place with many amenities including game room, shared fireplace room, kitchen, outdoor games like horseshoes. Very quiet and property is very spacious. Rooms are a bit small as it is an old style hotel and resort but fine if you are busy outside doing other things.
