Big Bear Lake Hostel - Big Bear Lake California Hostels

Big Bear Lake is directly between Los Angeles, Las Vegas,
Palm Springs, and Joshua Tree National Park,
7000 feet up in the San Bernardino National Forest.

Big Bear Hostel's Mission
I started the Big Bear Hostel because I love hosteling and outdoor sports and Big Bear Lake provides year-round outdoor recreation. I am trying to build the ultimate base camp in Big Bear for outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you are a mountain biker, snowboarder, skier, wakeboarder, wakerskier, rock climber, paddler, barefoot marathoner, triathlete, paraglider, adventure racer or you just want to read a book, go for a hike, and have a BBQ on our huge deck overlooking the lake you will not be disappointed! My goal is for my guests to have such a good time that they return again and again, and each visit will be better than the last!

The Big Bear Hostel is located next to the village in two converted single family homes. Many guests say it feels like they are staying at a friend's cabin and I hope you will come to feel like the hostel is your home away from home. Our accommodations are private rooms and dormitory beds with bunk beds and guests share our huge party deck overlooking the lake and mountains, 6 full bathrooms, 2 kitchens, 2 lounges, 2 dining rooms, and the exercise room with other guests at the hostel.
