A little bit more about us

Our purpose is to deepen our connection to nature, each other, and ourselves.
We do this by interweaving art, healing, and nature into a self-curated social adventure.

Where the destination IS the journey

A former 1970s summer-camp lodge reborn as a vintage-chic hideaway, Black Forest Vintage Hotel is our love letter to Big Bear’s wild heart. We kept the dark wood, brass fixtures, and record-player charm—but added modern comfort, lake-to-table partners, and spaces that spark connection: fire-pit circles, poolside loungers, vinyl-spun lounges.

Vintage soul, modern pioneer heart

Born from a 1970s camp lodge, Black Forest Vintage Hotel curates mid-century design, quirky art, and pine-scented stillness into one seamless playground. Our mission is to deepen connection—to nature, to community, and to self—while sparking unexpected laughter along the way. Every beam of dark wood, every brass fixture, and every record spinning at dusk honors that promise of exploration, intimacy, and fun.
