AMAZING EVERYTHING! The location, the cabins/rooms, the staff! All of it was amazing!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this awesome little lodge! Right on the lake, and walking distance to the fawnskin village.
I will definitely be back!

My husband’s family has owned property in Fawnskin since 1957, and we built our cabin in 1980. We think The Outpost is one of the greatest places on the mountain for family/ friends get togethers.
Quite a few cabins on North Shore close to the lake.
So cool to see large groups enjoying our small town. The contractor, probably the owner, has done a magnificent job remodeling the cabins!
We have not stayed they as we have our places, but, every time I drive around the lake, I slow down to admire The Outpost. The Fawnskin Market and the store next door is walking distance away. Hopefully, someone will buy the North Shore Cafe nearby!
I think the Grizzly needs to interview the owners, if they have not already done so!
The focus is always on The Village, The drive across the dam, driving east through Fawnskin alongside the lake, is one of the most beautiful, scenic drives in California from my perspective!
Maybe this town does not want to draw attention nor bring the traffic, The Outpost has been one of the greatest improvements to our town. Wish someone would do something about the Fawn Lodge. Former Supervisor, James Ramos, held a couple of meetings, but nothing substantial really happened.
Thanks to the owners for improving our small town!!!

It doesn't get any better in the Big Bear area. Go during the week or on Sunday if possible. Very quiet, very clean. The check in process is quick and secure. Will definitely be back. Best kept secret on the mountain.

We are so grateful that weather and nature permitted for our wedding to be held at The Outpost on 9/21. It was the perfect venue and we so appreciated the fact that a part of their package includes staying on site. Waking up with our wedding party and setting up our tent and decor together made it feel like a family affair. Alyssa, Billy & Jolene were accommodating, kind and supportive through it all, even when a rain and hail storm came through the day before our wedding. They helped with clean up and drying things out so that all could be ready for our special day. The location is cozy, beautiful and perfect for groups. We hope to be back to visit and would highly recommend it as either a great place to spend a few days or celebrating a social day.

Absolutely loved this place. Would love to have my family and friends rent all the cabins and have an amazing time with all the amenities provided. Just bring your food and clothes and everything else is there.

It was a beautiful place for a wedding. The owners are awesome! Friendly and accommodating. When the opportunity presents itself for us to visit again, we will definitely stay here again!

This place has everything, and MORE! From the full kitchen to the picnic area with illuminated umbrellas so you can eat under the stars, The Outpost has thought of it all. The owners are awesome, and the lodge is easily accessible to anything you'd want to do in and around Big Bear. We spent three nights in cabin 5 and when we weren't out on the lake fishing or riding the Alpine Coaster, our kids entertained themselves at the lodge playing foosball, cornhole, and making s'mores by the fire. Would recommend it to anyone who finds themselves in Fawnskin or Big Bear looking to make memories to last a lifetime.

Eleven of us (6 adults, 5 young children) absolutely loved our stay at the Outpost and plan to recruit some additional friends to make it an annual vacation. The cabins were lovely, clean, comfortable, and furnished with everything we could need or want. The cabin patios were perfect for morning coffee. The Adirondack chairs at the fire pit were heavenly for wine, beer, and S’mores. The picnic tables and grill were perfect for dinner and entertainment….lots of outdoor games suitable for all ages. Our two dogs were also very happy.

Love! Love! Love this place. Been coming here since it's previous ownership. It's a great place for family because you can all rent your individual cabins and kids are safe since it's in a cul-de-sac. There is a fire pit and chairs in the middle of the cul-de-sac which is fun for evening s'mores! Each cabin has its own little kitchen and fireplace, making it super cozy. Since the previous ownership, there have been some nice upgrades and updating to the cabins. It's also pet friendly!! We don't go anywhere without our pets. BUT...the pet fee is quite pricey. It was raised with the new ownership. It's more than double any hotel/motel/airbnb/cabin we have stayed. This is the only reason I'm not giving it a 5/5. We would be able to afford to come more often if the pet fee was more comparable to most places.
