Beautiful views and awesome home

What a perfect getaway for our extended family of 20. The large bunk rooms were so nice, the large kitchen and two fridge/freezer units were very helpful, and the large living/gathering spaces were heavenly. And the views of Bear Lake! We couldn’t stop looking out the windows!! Would gladly stay here again!

Wonderful weekend with family over the 4th of July 2024

We loved staying here. The view was amazing and it was very quiet, except for our family inside : ) It was bigger than I thought and the extra family room worked out so well. We had about 7 cars, there was plenty of space for parking. The deck was so fun with the views. We would stay there again.

Extended family gathering

There was plenty of room for 5 families to enjoy our two night stay. The outside play area was a hit with the small kids. The access to the ideal beach resort was a plus, beach and swimming pool. Kitchen facilities and bedrooms were great. The location was convenient to access Garden City “downtown “. We enjoyed Minnatonka Cave. Good raspberry shakes at the Chevron gas station. Better than waiting an hour for a shake in town.
