When visiting the Big Bear Lake ski areas, I stayed one night in the village, and obviously had to try their pool. Even if there was no sauna...
The place, Big Bear Frontier, is a rustic (I'd say 2-3 star) and nice place, but with a great location. It is within a walking distance of the village shops and restaurants. The pool was quite warm and nice, and I was able to regain heat that I usually get from sauna visits.
