Great place for large group!

We loved our stay here. We had plenty of space to move around and do activities. The bedrooms and bathrooms were well thought out. Appliances were fantastic and great for our size of group. There were plenty of games and activities in the house to keep the kids busy. Location was great and we rode scooters everyday into town for shakes. We loved this place!

The perfect weekend getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay and hope to stay here for years to come! The location was great. Close to the park and just a short drive to town or the beach. House was really clean and had everything we needed. New grass in the backyard was new so we tried to stay off of it, but it will be a great addition for future stays. Shelli, the property manager, was so lovely. She was very prompt and attentive to any questions or needs we had.

Very nice place but there is no grass

The home is nice. The double dishwashers were essential. There were plenty of indoor things to do. There is no grass - we had to do all of out outdoor activities elsewhere.

Big group mecca

The house is absolutely beautiful but more important are the well thought out rooms. Two bunk bed rooms with half baths make it a great retreat for families who have kids. Parents can have a room and the kids can have their space too. Some many bathrooms assured no one had to wait long for a shower after the beach. Super close to a park so the lack of a yard is no hardship. We come to bear lake every year and we all agreed it was the nicest house we have stayed in. Highly recommend!

What a great property. It was very clean...probably one of the cleanest properties that we have rented in the past 20 years. Thank you so much for that. It fit all of our family's needs for a great reunion. Kitchen was well stocked and we took advantage of the panty storage as well. It was so nice to have the 2 fridges and 2 stoves to help with all the food storage and prep. Also nice to have the bathroom and shower items that are usually missing in other rentals. We've already rented it for our return trip next summer. Shelli was great with her communication before the trip and available during our stay, but everything turned out great and we never had a need to reach out for anything. Thanks again for a great time!

Amazing space!

We had our family reunion at this property and it was perfect. (Even the teens couldn't stop sending pictures of the house to their friends!) We had just under 30 people and there was enough space for each family to have their own bedroom and bathroom. The playroom area was a hit with the ping pong, foosball, and air hockey. The deck was also a great space to socialize around the fire pit. There was enough space inside the house that the lack of grass outside wasn't much of an issue. We did some games on the front driveway (there's plenty of concrete) and it was just fine. We missed having a lake view, but with everything this house had to offer, it was a minor inconvenience. Shelli was very responsive and very helpful. Overall it was an incredible location and we hope to come back another year and enjoy it even more with grass!
