Beautiful property with amazing views. House was very clean and comfortable. Great to have the owners live right next door and they took care of us with fire wood. Great fishing right off the pier. Had a blast.

Wish we had more time!

This was our second visit, and we plan on coming back next year. This is a great old school cabin with all of the modern amenities you need. There's plenty of room, a really nice size yard, with a nice pier and boat lift. We're glad we found this!

Great weekend getaway

It was so nice to get together with family and hang out in this tucked away cabin on the water. Great fully functioning kitchen with everything you need. Love that it was pet friendly so we could have our fur babies with us. Our little granddaughter loved the tire swing. Great weekend!! Owners are very responsive to your needs!

Great views for a family vacation

We enjoyed our family vacation and the house and property were great. Plenty of space in the house. The fire pit over looking the lake was ideal each evening. The water off the dock was clear and there was sand at the bottom of the lake for swimming. We’d come back.

Charming, rustic cabin on an amazing lake!

The cabin was perfect for our group. The kids and dogs had a blast jumping off the dock. The swimming area off the dock was sandy and weed free. The lake was great for tubing, skiing, and fishing. The cabin had everything we needed!

Perfect cabin on the lake

This was our 4th year booking this property. My family and love everything this property has to offer. 4 roooms offer ample sleeping accommodations. Also, we enjoy the large yard with tables, covered deck and grill. The boat dock/lift down the stairs gives us access to swimming, fishing and boating on the lake. The host is friendly and made sure we had everything we needed.

Great Getaway

We had a fantastic stay at the H3B. The cabin was clean and well stocked. There was plenty of space for our 8 adults and 2 dogs. We spent most of our time outside enjoying the views from the covered gazebo, fishing off of the pier, or sitting around the firepit. The dogs loved exploring the large yard and jumping off of the pier into the lake. Sheila and Dan were wonderful hosts. We will be back!

Delightful Green Lake Vacation

We could not have been happier with our stay at House of Three Bears. The setting is spectacular with a beautiful view over the lake. The cabin is really more than a cabin, it felt very spacious and airy. The building itself is simply charming. Sheila was a marvelous hostess. There was absolutely nothing we needed during our stay. We will be back again for sure.

Wonderful !!!

We had another wonderful stay at The House of The Three Bears! This is our third year staying here and we have had an excellent stay each time. The cabin is perfectly located with lake front access but also ample yard space, perfect for kids to play. There is plenty of space to house our boat trailor and pickup truck. The cabin itself is cozy and well kept. It is an easy drive into Green Lake which is a charming town. We hope to continue to return in years to come and highly recommend this property!

H3B Family Trip

The House of Three Bears was exactly as expected. Plenty of room to roam, comfortable living space, big kitchen, ample parking, play games outside, swim off the dock, and park our Tri-toon boat! Sheila, Dan and their son Adam were super helpful throughout our stay and made things very comfortable for our family of nine. Definitely would go back and make it an annual gathering place.

Awesome Retreat!

What a perfect place for a family! Quiet mornings, cabin was fully stocked with everything we needed, host was close by for any questions we had and things we might have needed. The property had a lovely gazebo with a nice view of the lake, fire pit and lots of lounge chairs to use. Has a long flight of stairs leading down to the pier, but has railing on two sides and a gate at the top to lock to keep kids and dogs from going down without permission. We will definitely go back next year!

Hidden Gem on Green Lake!!

We had a wonderful stay at the Three Bears Cabin. Property photos don’t do it justice. Outdoor seatings areas were the best ever, loved the covered deck looking out onto the lake. The boat lift and dock was great to have, kitchen had everything you needed. Hope to return next year!! Thanks to the host for letting us stay

Best time at the House of Three Bears

The property is better than the photos show and the owners are terrific. We made use of the dock for boat rental and kayaking, the view overlooking the lake is wonderful in the daytime and at night. The fire pit was the highlight of our evenings. I hope we can enjoy this property again next season!

Best vacation experience!!

We were so lucky to find this hidden gem in Green Lake WI for our family reunion! The description does not do justice to how beautiful and clean this place is. We had members ranging from 16-81 yrs and we all found something to do. It has great walking trails near by , family restaurants and of course the lake. We enjoyed our morning coffee by the lake and sat by the fire at night. We enjoyed many water activities like swimming in the lake, kayaking and paddle boarding. Rooms were rustic but very clean and with all the necessary amenities. Sheila was a great hostess. It was a perfect location for our gathering and will definitely visit again!

cozy retreat with a view

This house has a wonderful view of sunrise on Green Lake, and plenty of bedrooms for a large group. There was plenty of outdoor seating for everyone, and nice trees to cover it all. Everything you need in a rustic lake house cabin! The swimming was also excellent (though a bit cold in the beginning of June, as one would expect). Having a boat lift was a really nice plus. The hosts live nearby and were very prompt and welcoming.
