Incredible Family Getaway

Our family really enjoyed staying at the Bear Lake Monster House! We especially loved the kitchen/dining area/living room as there was plenty of space for the entire family to be together. This would be an awesome place for the family to spend Thanksgiving weekend. The bunk rooms were exciting for the kids and the king beds were luxurious for the adults. Even though the house is big it feels cozy. The furniture is comfortable, the decor is charming, and it is stocked with kitchen essentials. The grandkids really loved foosball and the Connect Four game on the wall. The little playroom hidden under the stairs was a fun surprise! There were toys and books to keep the little kids entertained which all the adults were incredibly grateful for. All of the Bear Lake Monster trivia and artwork throughout the house was interesting and leveled up the whole experience. Bear Lake Monster House is minutes away from many parks, restaurants, and public beaches. The hosts also go above and beyond and offer free access to Ideal Beach Resort. We spent the day at the beach, swimming, hot tubbing, mini golfing, playing bingo, giant chess, and playing on the playground. We didn’t have time to play tennis but will definitely do that next time! Garden City Park is a 6-minute drive with a playground, grassy area, and a boardwalk out to the beach. It was a lovely sandy beach for all the littles. We were worried when the weather turned cold on our last day but ended up having the best time ever hanging out and playing games at the house. We also played Pickleball at the Garden City Heritage Park where they had 8 courts. We didn’t make it to Pickleville Playhouse this trip but it’s okay because we will definitely be staying at Bear Lake Monster House again!

Chef’s Kiss Perfection

We loved the Bear Lake Monster House! The location is perfect! So close to everything - particularly the Pickleville Playhouse and the best beaches (in our opinion). The neighborhood is new and so is the house, which we loved! The house well-appointed and included everything we needed throughout our stay. There were king beds in all of the rooms upstairs which was an amazing touch! You never find that ANYWHERE. We also loved that the bedrooms upstairs had large TV’s as well! The frisbees, beach toys, towels, and scavenger hunt truly took our visit over the top. In addition to everything mentioned it was also amazing that everything was labeled and easy to find. The house comes with access to ‘Ideal Beach’ which was also amazing! We took full advantage of that benefit and utilized the beach toys included with the house. We’ll definitely be back soon! Thank you for a perfect stay!

Monster Fun

The house was great. Kids loved the toys from the scavenger hunt. Needs a larger water heater with that many people staying there. Our other issue was the parking. No room for toys and boat trailers..

Great House Awesome Amenities!

We loved staying at The Bear Lake Monster House!! The host was easy to communicate with and the house has everything we needed! The kids loved the scavenger hunt the host set up! What a cute idea! Having king sized beds in the bedrooms was a huge plus for our mostly adult group! And having beach towels that were easily accessible was a nice touch. I think one of the best perks of the house is having access to Ideal Beach Resort!! Having close beach access, a pool, hot tub and sports courts really made our trip! Definitely would recommend and stay again!

Great stay, host went the extra mile!

We had three families staying in this house and had plenty of space to spread out and enjoy our time! The house was stocked with all kitchen amenities and appliances, it was clean and nicely decorated. The kids loved The Bear Lake Monster theme and talked about it all week.. the host even provided a scavenger hunt for the kids with a little Bear Lake Monster to keep! We loved and appreciated that the host provided kayaks, chairs, and life jackets for use at the beach.. and communicated with us throughout our stay to make sure our needs were met. Would absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Your host

We love the Bear Lake area and have spent many summers here during our youth and now bring our own kids. Our kids have always been intrigued by the legend of the Bear Lake Monster and so we wanted to incorporate a fun, kid-friendly way to learn this cool piece of history. We hope your family enjoys this beautiful area as much as we do.
