Phenomenal for Family Reunions

by Aaron

This lodge was PERFECT for our family reunion. We had 10 couples and families with a total of 50 staying at Papa Bear Lodge. Grandchildren ranged ages from 15 months to 20 years old. Some couples need their space so I was apprehensive how they would do with everyone under the same roof but the layout was perfect with central facilities downstairs and upstairs and bedrooms in various corners. EVERYONE had a great time and said the layout was perfect. Outside is a nice yard with a playground for young kids and trees providing shade to gather outside to visit. There were plenty of plates and cooking utensils. There were also two dishwashers enabling us to keep on top of dirty dishes. The two sets of washers and dryers were also used by the many families. The kids loved the theater room for movies and video games. The later even enticed uncles to challenge grandkids. The pool table was also a hit with cousins playing cousins. Needless to say, this property was a hit!

Great place for large group

by Kylee A.

 

We had a wonderful time in this spacious cabin. We had six different families all staying together (40 people) and there was ample space for each family. Kids and teens loved the theater and hot tub and the separate hang out area with pool table and foosball. Double fridge, dishwasher and ovens made for so much space. Highly recommend and would book again.

Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that your group of six families had a wonderful time in our spacious cabin and that there was ample space for everyone. It's great to know that the kids and teens enjoyed the theater, hot tub, and hangout areas with the pool table and foosball. We're also glad the double fridge, dishwasher, and ovens made your stay more convenient.

We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back for another great stay!

We loved the location

by Craig D

We loved the location and the proximity to all the restaurants. Above everything, we got to the location a bit early before normal check in and they weren’t sticklers at all. I really appreciated that.

Thank you for your kind review! We’re so glad you loved the convenient location near the restaurants and that our team was able to make your early arrival smooth and stress-free. We’re happy to hear your stay was enjoyable, and we’d love to host you again at Papa Bear Lodge!

Awesome Huge Place

by Justin R.

 

We loved our stay at big bear. The yard was absolutely fantastic with a playground and nice green soft grass. Plenty of Parking. The location was perfect for going all around bear lake and close to great places in garden city. Our host was quick to respond whenever we needed anything and everything really went well. Only complaints (and it wasn't a huge deal) was that some of the rooms require you to walk through other rooms, which was slightly awkward if you aren't with strictly family only. Also there was a signal tower right next to us, two of our guests were sensitive to that, so just something to be aware of. The place was clean, had a pool table and a nice theatre room. Huge kitchen that can host a large crowd. Overall fantastic place, would stay again and recommend to anyone.

Thank you for your fantastic review! We're delighted to hear that you loved your stay at Big Bear and that the yard, playground, and location made your visit special. We're glad to know that the parking and proximity to Garden City worked out well for you.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the room layout and the nearby signal tower, and we'll take it into consideration for future guests. It's great to hear that the cleanliness, pool table, theater room, and spacious kitchen added to your experience.

Thank you for your kind words and recommendation. We look forward to welcoming you back for another wonderful stay!

Great home for a large party!

by Michael C.

We had almost 40 people for the weekend here and the way this home is laid out, was amazing! It has 2 large great rooms in the center of the home, which allows everyone to stay together. If you want privacy, you can always run to your room, but having a home that brings everyone together, this home makes that happen better than any other home I have stayed in. My only concern is if your party stays up late, the insulation in the home is not the best, but my family never plans on getting much sleep when we do these trips anyway.

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that the home's layout worked so well for your large group and that it allowed everyone to come together while still providing privacy when needed. We appreciate your feedback about the insulation and will take it into consideration.

We're glad that the home created a great environment for your gathering, and we hope to welcome you back for another memorable stay in the future!

We will be back another year.

by Julia P

This home is perfect for large groups and reunions. There is plenty of space for everyone. There are plenty of dishes and serving pieces for a large group. The laundry room is a huge plus for families with young kids. The entertainment options at the house are great. The outdoor spaces are thoughtfully planned for kids and adults. It is centrally located to lots of fun activities in Bear Lake. We will be back another year.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear Papa Bear Lodge was the perfect fit for your group and that you enjoyed the spacious layout, well-stocked kitchen, and family-friendly amenities. It’s wonderful knowing both the indoor entertainment and outdoor spaces added to your experience, along with the convenient location to Bear Lake activities. We’d be thrilled to welcome you back for another stay in the future!
