Have had the cabin for 5 years and finally made time this trip for the Murphy River Walk.
Unbelievable at the beauty.
May we suggest making this a priority if you have upcoming reservations at Big Bear Lodge.
It was peaceful and exhilarating all at the same time.

We get compliments all the time from our new and returning guests, telling us how clean Big Bear Lodge is when they arrive.
Music to our ears!!!
We wanted to introduce you to the cleaning "angel" responsible for keeping our little piece of paradise,
sparkling and shiny 😁
We are so thankful for Bridget, her work ethic and sense of responsibility. She is very conscientious about the little things and goes above and beyond what is expected taking pride in her work.
She's a busy mom with young children and a husband and continues to be flexible with our crazy cabin schedule as well as some others that she takes care of.
Always a pleasant and positive attitude and a cheerful smile.
Next time you visit our peaceful place and notice how clean it is...
Here's the girl responsible

Thank you Bridget.
Keep up the great work πŸ’“
