Best Location on the Lake

We had an incredible stay at this lake house! The location couldn’t have been better—right on the water and just a short walk to the clubhouse. The views were stunning, and we loved how peaceful and tranquil everything felt. The house itself was the perfect size for our group of 4–6 people, with plenty of space to relax and unwind. Everything was clean, well-stocked, and super comfortable (Wife would have loved all the throw pillows but this was a father son get away. Whether we were enjoying coffee on the deck or taking a hike to the waterfall, every moment was relaxing and memorable. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a serene Bear Lake escape!
Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025
