This was a great property with amazing hosts. The house was nicely furnished with touches that made it seem like a home vs a rental. We were really happy with the house and were very pleased with how accommodating the owners were to work with. Perfect for a family and we enjoyed our stay.

The property was perfect for our vacation. If I could retire in a lake house, this is what I would want to find.The host was friendly and professional. If we come back for AirVenture, we will try to book this place. We loved the kayaks. My sister and I kayaked five days of the eight that we stayed. Thank you for a great experience.

House was decorated wonderfully. Definitely turn key vacation house. Check in was easy. Everything exceeded my expectations as far as what was available for us to use in the house, outside, and definitely the hot tub was a huge bonus. Communication prior and throughout our stay was exceptional. Replies to any questions were answered almost immediately. This house/ property does not disappoint. Definitely will be back.

Absolutely loved our stay at Bear Lake House! The morning view from the deck with coffee was so relaxing. The kitchen had every utensil, dish, etc we needed. The rooms were clean and we all had our own space. Perfect house for our family getaway! Hope to be back there in the near future!

This VRBO was just what we needed. We loved that you provided the leftovers from previous renters including ketchup, butter, syrup, drinks, snacks and bathroom supplies. The yard was ample and outdoor space was perfect. This was a great rental. Thank you!

Home is beautifully decorated, beds were very comfortable with lovely linens, and living spaces were filled with great seating and large tabletops for meals and crafts. Hot tub was a delight, very large and with great views of the lake - we watched the ice fisherman all day go on and off the lake. Towels were provided and with full laundry we could dry them after our time in the hot tub. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed and more and the host even left a few treats in the fridge. Overall wonderful property and hosts! Will definitely be back!

Cousin’s Weekend

This Lake house was perfect for our cousin’s weekend. So cozy, and we all had the space to spread out. The view looking out is beautiful with a morning cup of coffee. It has a full kitchen and was able to make a full meal, and close to a country bar where we did a fish fry on Friday, yummy! We can’t wait to book next year!

The Lazy Bear Lake House was exactly what we were(our Family)looking for in a little Summer getaway and get together with Family members for a my Sister's wedding at the Local Bear Lake Resort and Campground. The Hosts were very accommodating with an early check in as well as a late check out with early communication/request on our part. The Home had everything possible that we needed for a user friendly experience- Nothing was overlooked on their part. The Hosts seem to know what people need and want to be comfortable while on vacation. Cleanliness of the Home was super on every level- kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms- Plenty of comfortable, clean bedding is available. The top deck and lower level patio with the Hot tub were definitely a popular spot for us. Top deck over-looking the lake- comfortable chairs and couch- So nice for morning mediation and coffee, also afternoon-evening visits and cocktails Lots of outdoor recreational opportunities for guests with huge yard, Kayaks for the Lake, and yard games. Don't hesitate on this vacation rental- You will not be disappointed. Thanks again to the Hosts for making this an amazing long weekend vacation.

Our stay in this Wisconsin cabin was truly wonderful. The home is beautiful, warm, and incredibly cozy, thoughtfully stocked with absolutely everything needed for a comfortable getaway — honestly, even more than expected. There is literally everything here!We especially loved the hot tub on the first-floor porch — it’s simply exceptional. Sitting in the hot, relaxing bubbles, taking in the open views around us while snow gently falls from the sky, was pure bliss and the perfect way to slow down and appreciate the beauty of nature.The living room is a delight — a cozy lounge with a fireplace on the first floor that brings a lovely sense of warmth and ambiance. We were so happy to spend our Thanksgiving weekend here — grilling, playing games, and enjoying quality time together.The hosts were always on standby, answered every question within minutes, and made our stay feel seamless and cared for.Highly recommend!
