Grinning Bear review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cabin was very comfortable, conveniently located, with lots of amenities. Lots of family things to do in the Arnold area but downside is that BLS pool and Flyin Lake are expensive for family use at $22 per person per day!

This property was ideal for me. Tucked away in the beautiful trees of Arnold but easily accessible and private without being secluded. Many homes in Arnold have steep driveways or steep stairs but this cabin has a short, mostly flat driveway with only 3 short steps directly connected to an enclosed front deck which was great for my dog and coming and going during the stay. Plenty of space with a nice open floorplan. Rooms are comfy and they had everything I needed and more. It's a cabin feel without overdoing it, and has fun things that individuals, families, kids, dogs, or couples can all enjoy. Lastly, check-in and out was simple, great communication, and they had a very nice binder with WiFi and other helpful info which was clear and helpful.

We stayed here with 9 people total, 6 of which were kids. There were enough beds for everyone to sleep comfortably & the kids all enjoyed picking which room they wanted to sleep in. The check-in & check-out process was easy, as was the keyless entry. We had enough space in the driveway to park multiple cars. We stayed comfortable enough with just the windows & fans on. The kids enjoyed the Foosball table. There were lots of things in the kitchen for us to cook with & use for serving, but the number of forks & spoons were limited (we didn't have 9 spoons). Having a dishwasher was nice, especially since we needed to wash things after each meal in order to have enough clean things to use for the next meal since there were so many of us eating. The kitchen table & bar area was enough space for everyone to eat at. The beds were comfortable. Overall we had a good time & would recommend others with a large group to stay in this house.
