Art Garden

Honestly, if I had to pick a trinket store in the Village that was in my top 3, Art Garden would make the list. Sure, they have obscure Bear-related plush things in a variety of colors. And yes, you can find no fewer than eleven items in the store featuring what appears to be an insanely angry bald eagle.But they also have some actual artistically aesthetic things, as well as some goofy but cool stuff for the kids. Of course you could make your own medieval weaponry out of plywood at home, but you won't-- so just buy that big Halberd here (that's a pole axe, Mildred.). They also feature some stained glass art which requires skill and talent to make....Unlike the hot pink "Big Bear Lake" T-shirt in the window across the street.Take a stroll through. There

Right when you walk into the store is the square of concrete with a beautiful mosaic underwater feel .This place has everything ! A man came walking out Of the Store saying we will match any price. Wow ! Then told me " my wife made him say that"#HappyWifeHappyLife ! Then I started talking to another lady who greeted me in the store. She was very nice too. I think I got into like a 20 minute conversation about Star Wars .Then in the other corner of the stores my cousin was looking at some pretty big souvenirs to take home to his mom. They were only $15 . Definitely a cool spot ! Definitely a cool spot to go Christmas shopping reasonable prices and lots of collectibles !

The employees are super friendly. Be sure to talk to them. You won't be sorry. This is our second time here. Last year we bought an item we couldn't find elsewhere. It now sits on our mantle to remind us of our time in Big Bear.

What a great gift shop. There's so many shops to choose from in Big Bear but this one stood out to me. Lots and lots of cool items that are unique and hard to find items also. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful too. I'll be coming back here for more stuff for sure.

What an amazing find we were in town and walked in love this place found some really cool things that we bought the prices were good and the staff was great. I love living great reviews and this place completely deserves it I found some amazing things for me in my family great souvenirs. We will be back!!!

The lady here was super rude. I never write bad reviews but this service was horrible. Very condescending.

Very nice and friendly shop owner, very helpful. They have a bunch of cool stuff, will definitely come and visit them again next time we are up here!

Sweetest people ever!!! Love this gift shop they remembered me the whole time it was so cool. Cool gifts aswell

AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST!!! I purchased the BB gun for my son here. We went straight to the hotel and realized that it doesn't work properly. We went back immediately to exchange it. It was less then an hour after we purchased it. I talked with the guy who helped us as well as with supervisor. Both were extremely rude, unapologetic and told me they can't replaced since I already used it. Also they informed me that all sales are finals!!! $50 later I have not working BB gun! I never came across such an unprofessional staff.

BEST shop at big bear hands down! Rebecca and Marrie were an absolute pleasure and they were so helpful! Will definitely come back to this shop anytime and everytime I visit big bear!
