Bear Lake stay

The location was perfect. Loved the view of the lake! Grandson and son caught fish left and right from the dock. Loved having access to kayaks, which I had never done before but had a blast kayaking.

Fantastic Family Getaway

This cottage has everything you need and more. It is very clean. There’s a lot of room to have quite a few people and not feel crowded. The kayaks and paddle boards were great. We utilized the washer and dryer, so we didn’t come home with piles of laundry. We have already booked for next summer! Thank you Lana for being available and answering any questions we had. Looking forward to next year!

Beautiful lake home

Very nice, clean and modern lakefront home. Very roomy - our family of seven adults and two children had plenty of room to spread out and have privacy if needed. We brought our small fishing boat and appreciated being able to tie it to the pier for our stay so we could easily go out and fish whenever we wanted. (boat launch is just a few houses away) The rental had everything we needed for our stay and we were able to use the boat house to store our fishing equipment and float tubes. Beautiful lake...we brought our own kayak but there are some available for renter to use. I used their paddle board and was fascinated at how the water was so clear, I could look down and see the fish swimming. There is a nice, large, grassy backyard with a firepit close to the lake. One thing to note is there are houses next door on both sides of the rental, but we weren't bothered by this. Owners were quick to respond when we had any questions during our stay. Highly recommend this rental.

Weekend away

We rented this property for a weekend get away with my 85 year old father-in-Law.l to do some fishing. We selected our this property for its lake front location, the boat and the easy access for dad and we were not disappointed. The property was very clean and well equipped (bring your own seasonings if you plan to cook) The lakefront location was perfect. The walk to the lake was flat and the views of the lake were really great. The boat was a bit rough but good for what we needed. They also have 2 kayaks and 2 paddle boards that you can use. Plenty of outdoor furniture and indoor seating. The hosts were also very accommodating! We will definitely be keeping this place in mind for future trips. Thank you!!

Best view on the lake.

We had always stayed at the other end of the lake. Lana however was correct. We love their place. Cottage had everything we needed. If we needed anything it was so easy to get ahold of them.

Peaceful getaway

The house is great, peaceful, nice neighborhood on a small lake. The owners have updated to central A/C so that is new from previous reviews. The pontoon boat worked perfectly, so not sure what the reviewer was referring to. Would have been nice to have the owners cell# while we were there so if something happened that needed attention we could get ahold of them. VRBO messaging is not really good enough. Overall we had an amazing, relaxing vacation full of lake time, fishing, putt putt, a visit to Green Bay, and quiet!

Family getaway

Our family of all ages (2-72) had an excellent time on Bear Lake. The house has a nice older pontoon for rental which was nice to take for a spin around the lake. They also have a nice sandbox that our boys loved playing in. The campgrounds are less then a mile walk. Which was nice for all parties. We didn't have any issues, but Lana lives right next door incase anything would go wrong. The house doesn't supply fire wood, but people are selling it all over the area for a really good price. We bought an entire wheelbarrow for $10. We had a great weekend!

Great place to stay!

Loved the house. We will hopfully do it again. House is very clean. Winter stay so we didn’t do anything on the lake. Wonderful to stay at a place that is actually large enough for our 8 person family. Points of note: Fireplace is not available for use. 8 person family = larger cooking pans. We will bring our own large pans next time (no biggie for us). Listed clean up requirements are a bit steep given the Vrbo cleaning fee but still not a big deal...many hands make light work and it only took 30 minutes or so. All in all we loved our stay and wouldn’t even look for a different property for our next visit. This was great!

Great value!

This is a beautiful place that worked great for our family! We loved the comfortable beds and furnishings. Bear Lake is quiet and beautiful; great for kayaking and boating and our kids caught fish right off the dick at dusk! We'd come back!

Nice Cabin on Lake for 4-6 people

We had a great time at this property. The cabin was nice and clean. There were 4 beds which is what we were looking for. Fireplace was an added bonus. Sits along the lake which allowed us to ice fish when we had time. I would definitely stay here again in the future.

Nice, clean cabin on the lake

I am reviewing the cabin the way I would find helpful as a guest: 1) cabin-very clean, spacious. Washer and dryer is nice to have. Master has a king and private bath with shower. Yard is flat and grassy; nice fire pit. Only down side is window air, which is only in the living room. Does NOT reach back bedrooms. Was about 80-83 degrees in the bedrooms at night. Boat- If you get the pontoon, beware, it is quite old. Very clean and in physically good shape, but only has a 28mph motor. Also, wouldn’t start quite a few times while we were out on the lake. Only for seasoned boaters with some knowledge. Also, most of lake is no wake. There’s only one small, circular area for tubing/skiing. Beach- able to swim off the dock if you don’t mind fish, weeds and mud. No real sand area for little ones. Area- not too much to do near by. Grocery shopping is in Waupaca, a good 15-20 min drive. Check out Marl Lake—super cool! Overall, nice stay. A bit pricey for what you get. Owners’ permanent home is directly next door. They do come over quite a bit to get garbage, check in, etc which can be intrusive at times. Bring fans, laundry soap, and beach towels.
