Recent Bear Lake guest reviews

Our weeklong stay was lovely- enough room for an extended family of 7 and could even include the fur babies! The home was spacious and comfortable. Located directly on the water made this the standout choice. The blue of the lake with the mountain backdrop made this feel somewhat like a tropical vacation…but in the west. Thank you for sharing this lovely home.

Was easy to check in and check out.

We really enjoyed this cabin in Bear Lake. Great location, close to downtown and close enough to the state park to go swimming. We loved having the pool as an option, too, on days that the weather wasn't cooperating for the lake. The kids loved the outdoor area and we loved the deck! Plenty of beds and bathrooms for everyone. We definitely made use of the washing machine and dryer! Our biggest set back was the check in and check out time. We felt that for the price of this cabin, we lost a lot of time due to the check in/ out time. Check in isn't until 4pm which was a bummer when we arrived in early afternoon. I thought we could at least get early access to the pool, but the key was located inside the house. Check out was at 10am which was rough. Trying to eat breakfast, manage kids, pack our stuff, and clean the house before 10 was kinda crazy. We really would have enjoyed having more time allowed in the cabin for the price we paid. Also would have helped with all our young kids trying to take naps on travel days!

Where is Bear Lake?

Due north and east of the Great Salt Lake, the smaller (but magnificent) Bear Lake is split in half by the border of Utah and Idaho. At about 125 miles from Salt Lake City, it’s a convenient weekend getaway for many Utahns. Since the lake’s shore extends into Idaho, our Bear Lake vacation rentals and cabins might be in either state.

Things to do in Bear Lake

If you’re here for the lake, rent a boat and put it in the water at First Point boat ramp to get the aquatic fun started. Renting a four-wheeler is another exciting way to enjoy the beautiful Bear Lake scenery. Garden City, the Utah town on the lake’s shore, boasts a lovely bike trail, fishing pond, town center, and more. The area is known for its raspberries, and if you’re lucky enough to visit during the first week of August, you’ll get to enjoy the annual Raspberry Days festival. Winter visitors can easily access the ski slopes at Beaver Mountain, just 14 miles west.

The natural beauty of Bear Lake is truly stunning, and the surrounding area offers plenty of rentals to suit every visitor’s taste. Take your pick of our Bear Lake cabin rentals, and let the adventure begin.
