Great stay for family and friend get together

This home was perfect for our large end of summer family and friends get together. Plenty of room for us to be together when desired and to branch off into other areas in the home for smaller groups. We would definitely stay here again for our annual trip next year.

It was a perfect location for our family to be together to remember our mother and grandmother. Being able to stay in the same house made it easier for us. The house was just as described and nothing was missing.

About the host

Hosted by Angela Sweep

Host profile image
We absolutely love Bear Lake and enjoy spending many days in the summer boating and being with our friends and family. During the winter months we enjoy snowmobiling and skiing the deep snow that surrounds Garden city. We love Bear Lake so much we decided to purchase a home there ourselves that our family, friends and your families could enjoy.

Why they chose this property

We picked this property because we both have big families and wanted a place that would fit both families at once. It is within walking distance to the beach. It is also close to all the excitement and restaurants that Bear lake has to offer during the summer.

What makes this property unique

New home that is big enough to fit everyone's friends and family and yet close enough to the water and restaurants. Feel like you are close enough to town yet far enough away that no one will bother you.
