ITH Big Bear Retreat Center and Hostel

Nestled into the heart of Big Bear, our rustic Hostel is the perfect escape from the city into a cozy, natural, and peaceful space. The Hostel sits on a beautiful hillside above the lake at the entrance of Big Bear Village. The great location puts you within walking distance to great hiking trails, breweries, restaurants and lake activities like boating and jet skiing. Inside the cabin, there are private rooms with private or shared bathrooms, as well as dorm style rooms with bunk beds. There are two lounges each with its own fireplace for guests to gather and socialize. A full kitchen and multiple dining areas allows guests to prepare delicious meals and entertain. The exterior of the ITH Big Bear Retreat Center and Hostel begins with multiple patios and BBQ areas for relaxing. While staying at the hostel, enjoy a social family vibe with extra privacy for good measure. You’ll still find plenty of other travelers hanging out and relaxing in the common areas.
