    The Staff at Pleasure Point Marina was professional, personable and a complete different experience than when we were talking with Pine Knot Marina, inquiring about rentals. We rented the pontoon with WiFi and that was fun to have music for our time on the lake. Worth the money for this pontoon. There were 9 of us and we had plenty of space to walk around, sit and visit and take in the beauty of Big Bear from the water. I highly recommend Pleasure Point Marina. The absolute best!

    First time exploring Big Bear & this boat experience, service was spectacular! Staff was great, shout out to Kenuj for amazing service. Boat was excellent, had a good time exploring the lake

    Best ride ever!

    We rented a pontoon boat for an hour (ended up around ~$118 total) and we had a grand time! We brought our pup and it was so much fun going around the serene and beautiful lake. Definitely a good family friendly and still naturey thing that isn't snow related!

The bikes they brought out were the perfect size for each person in our group and they provided helmets. It was about $16/hour for the bike rental. Upon arrival we were helped immediately. From arrival, to waiver signature, and getting on bikes took about 10 minutes. You will need an ID as they hold it until you return with payment. The location is on the north shore and it is easy to find. There was plenty of parking and it's right next to an RV Park with a little liquor store in case you forgot anything. If you didn't bring a drink, pick one up as I did not see any water fountains or bottle fillers on the bike path. The paved bike path is right across the road and it is easy enough. There are some hills, not bad, but not completely flat. You can always walk the bike up if needed. You can ride all the way down the north shore which is mostly undeveloped and absolutely beautiful. We packed a backpack with sandwiches and stopped along the way at picnic tables to eat lunch. Keep in mind for you, your kids, and pets, that it's a little harder to exercise/breathe at high altitudes. There are a few benches to stop and rest as well as a few paths down to the lake. The trail is shared with other bikers, walkers, runners, and a few folks walking dogs. Everyone we encountered was respectful. I knocked one star down because I thought $100+ for one adult and two kid bike rentals for less than 2 hours was a little steep. However, we loved our time on the bike path. The exercise was great and the north shore is beautiful. The trees and lake took our breath away. We will return soon.

    Our family made our first trip up to Big Bear in late July, and the heat was pretty intense--even…read morefor being up in the mountains! Renting a boat from Big Bear Marina turned out to be the absolute highlight of our trip and far exceeded our expectations. We rented for an hour and a half to cruise around the lake, and the cool breeze out on the water was an instant relief from the hot weather. Even our two teenagers didn't complain once--which is a major win! They thoroughly enjoyed the ride and loved connecting to the Bluetooth speaker the marina provided so they could play their own music. It set such a fun vibe that I even found myself trying to dance on the boat (much to everyone's amusement). The heat eventually drove us home a day early, but this boat ride made the trip worthwhile. It's the one thing we'll definitely do again the next time we visit Big Bear!

    We traveled approximately 100 miles round trip and planned our stay in Big Bear specifically around…read morerenting a pontoon boat from Big Bear Marina. Although both the $490 rental and $250 security deposit were ultimately returned in full, the experience was disappointing and revealed a serious lack of preparation for inclement weather. Our original reservation was Sunday, September 6 at noon. It was raining heavily, but we arrived on time and were prepared to honor the reservation. We understood the marina's stated policies regarding weather, refunds, and 24-hour notice. The issue was not simply that it was raining. The marina expected customers to accept the consequences of the weather while appearing unprepared to provide the rental in those same conditions. The pontoon and its seats were soaking wet. Its overhead cloth covering provided absolutely no protection, and the marina did not even have towels available to dry the seats. When we asked for one, an employee suggested "use a life vest to cover the seat." We were also instructed not to go right after leaving the marina and told that, because of the heavy fog, we should remain in the middle of the lake. Being advised to limit our movement because visibility was so poor did not inspire confidence that the conditions were appropriate for boating. At the marina's suggestion, we moved our reservation to 2:00 p.m. because the rain might let up. We returned on time, but it was still pouring and nothing had improved. Rather than abandon the experience, we extended our lodging at additional expense and rescheduled for Tuesday, September 8 at 11:30 a.m. When Tuesday's forecast called for thunderstorms, we called at 9:00 a.m. Monday--more than 24 hours in advance--to cancel while complying with the stated policy. A dock worker had told us that mountain weather is unpredictable, which was exactly why we chose the safer option before the deadline. That decision proved reasonable: Tuesday brought thunder, lightning, heavy rain, and flooding in the area. Unfortunately, the cancellation call with Sadie was unnecessarily contentious. My wife explained that we understood the policy, had arrived twice prepared to use the boat, had repeatedly rescheduled, and had extended our stay specifically to make the rental happen. Sadie argued with her, refused her request to speak with a manager, and said the system would not allow her to issue a refund. Even arguing that "My app doesn't show rain for tomorrow" After a prolonged discussion, Sadie said, "You know what, I don't have time for this. I will just refund it," and immediately hung up. The refund was then processed. We appreciate that everything was returned, but the contradictory information, refusal to involve a manager, and abrupt hang-up were not professional. This trip also held personal significance. It was our first getaway since my wife underwent emergency spinal and femur surgeries related to Stage IV cancer. Walking can still be difficult for her, so repeatedly navigating rain, mud, gravel, slippery surfaces, and a floating dock was not just a minor inconvenience. We did not disclose her condition or request special treatment because customers should not have to reveal private medical circumstances to receive basic preparation, clear communication, and reasonable consideration for safety. We made every effort to make this rental work. We traveled specifically for it, arrived on time twice despite the rain, accepted multiple reschedules, extended our stay, followed the cancellation policy, and prioritized safety when thunderstorms were forecast. Big Bear Marina ultimately refunded us, which was the correct resolution. However, a business with a strict weather policy should also have a clear, practical plan for serving customers--or responsibly accommodating them--when that weather arrives. We now have no reason to ever return to Big Bear.
