Beautiful view
Property is a very large house with many outside screen porches. The livingroom on the main level and family room on the lower level were both large enough for all six of us to sit together comfortably. It has a beautiful view on one side. The incline to the house is very steep but the parking area is large and level. We enjoyed playing pool together in the lower level. It is a private location on steep roads. Nowhere to walk on the roads but there are several hiking trails you can drive to in Bear Lake reserve.

Beautiful property
The house was beautiful and overall we really enjoyed our stay. There had been some recent paint and plaster repair work. There was dust from the work all over everything on the main floor. There had been only a minimal attempt at cleanup. The property should not have been rented until the proper cleanup was done.

Lovely mountain lodge
We loved our stay at Bear Lake Reserve. The location was perfect for our multi-family vacation and we stayed busy with hiking, swimming, kayaking, and playing pickleball. The home itself was comfortable and well equipped, however the cleanliness was a little lacking when we arrived - the floors had crumbs and scuffs of mud which I was surprised to see, there was evidence of shaving residue in the main bathroom sink, the carpet (especially on the the stairs) was dirty and looked like it hadn't been vacuumed. It looked as if the porches hadn't been cleaned following the pollen season. However the kitchen, bedrooms, and the rest of the bathrooms were clean and comfortable and we had an enjoyable stay. The only other issue was that neither of the available air mattresses seemed to hold air overnight, my only word of caution is that this house is advertised as sleeping 10 but that would have to include the 2 air mattresses. There are 3 sizable rooms with king size bed (sleeping 6) and two twin beds (sleeps 2) in the attic above the garage (this space does not have air vents but was cool enough with fans and open windows in the evening). There is plenty of floor space in the attic for air mattresses to increase the sleeping space. Overall we would stay here again, but I do hope the air mattresses are replaced and the cleaners are encouraged to do a better job.

Absolutely Wonderful!
The home is perfect in so many ways for a memorable family reunion. Our kids and grandkids had a wonderful time. The large kitchen, dining area and family room gave us plenty of space for cooking, eating and being together. We'll always cherish the memories.

Great House
This house is pretty awesome. Very large and lots of space. Great views out the back porch. I would stay here again. Only 2 things to be aware of are that it takes a while to get up the mountain. This is house is somewhat secluded from things to do in the area without decent drive. Also, the bedroom on 3rd floor is pretty isolated from others with no restroom. In all a great house. Very clean and would reccommend to anyone. Just wanted to share those couple facts to help others out.

Quick Weekend with Friends in the Mountains
Two families of 4, both with kids 5 and under. Incredible views, fabulous entertaining spaces and porches for days. We loved the property and thoroughly enjoyed the house. Bear Lake is a great spot for hiking, boating and enjoying the fall leaves. Only feedback would be in the details: fireplaces didn't work (we knew that though), main coffee maker was broken (and we didn't bring fresh ground coffee for the second coffee maker), and the email details for check out were a bit different from those left at the property. We know this is new to the market and these small details (beside the coffee) weren't a big deal for us. We hope to come back and stay again soon!
