Motel Big Meadow Lodge
74878 US Highway 395, Bridgeport, CA 93517, United States of America – Great location - show map
The room was not large for two queen beds, but adequate. The rustic cabin-like construction and décor seemed fitting for the locale — just a short distance from town, but very rural, with a lovely view of the huge meadows and grand mountains of the Sierra Nevada. The room was clean and comfortable in the July weather despite having only a ceiling fan but no air conditioner. Sitting outside at the picnic table, chatting with my traveling companion at 11:00 pm, was a delightful experience. Perfect temperature, the smell of the countryside, almost zero traffic on the road (Hwy 395), and cows mooing in the distance — these make for a memorable experience.
United States of AmericaThe location was right off the highway, check in and out was quick and easy. The room was nice and the bathroom was clean.
United States of AmericaSuper clean and QUIET refrigerator in room. A hair dryer, not always provided at basic accommodations such as this, was also appreciated. I chose the property for its potential for star-gazing (no mention of this benefit in the listing). Amazing blanket of stars visible just outside the room with no need to drive anywhere in the middle of the night for necessary darkness.
United States of AmericaReally nice little cabin. We had our dog with us and it was nice to have stay in a place that allows dogs and also has lots of grass to walk him on.
United States of AmericaSmall and simple facility. Bed was comfortable and owner was sweet.
United States of AmericaNice little place, clean, pets are allowed,no smoking -and it actually smelled like it was a no smoking room (if you know what i mean) staff was very sweet and nice. Will deff stay here again.
United States of AmericaLocation. Shower. Available gas grill, fire ring and firewood.
United States of AmericaQuaint with personality. Old fashioned but modern clean and equipped. Fabulous views from the grassy yard with options for picnics, grilling and sitting around a fire!
United States of America6 of us stayed here in 4 rooms during our annual trip. With multiple fire pits and BBQ's available, we were able to sit around a camp fire and grill dinner as if we were camping. And at the end of the evening a hot shower and warm comfortable bed were waiting. We all love this place!
United States of AmericaDogs permitted without extra fee. The bed sheets were clean, the towels were new, the floor was clean. I was in the room closest to the freeway and the noise level was practically none. It was a great deal for the price, I expected less than I got. The host very welcoming. Will certainly book again.
