We visited Bear Lake for a family reunion of 40 people. We very much enjoyed our stay at Bear Lake Lodge. Positive things were that the area was quite secluded, had 4 bathrooms and a good kitchen which included 2 ovens and 3 refrigerators. There were plenty of chairs for our group, a good collection of children's books and a wonderful piano keyboard. The concerns that we had were that the site was misrepresented in that it posted as having AC (turned out to be a swamp cooler that did not even cool the great room area, much less downstairs or the bedrooms). It also indicated that there was room for 60 (there was no way to accommodate that in the home), a pickle ball court, and that the site was good for camping. We put up 4 tents, 3 of which were blown over, even though they were well-staked. The lack of wind protection in the area made for a site that was not good for tenting, There was beach access for a private beach, which was wonderful, except that it was a car drive away. Our biggest complaint was that there were earwigs everywhere and several live cockroaches found.
