Beautifully located in the Sweetwater subdivision of Garden City, this cozy log cabin offers gorgeous views of Bear Lake from its wrap-around deck! You'll enjoy all the atmosphere of a mountain cabin, with a lovely setting and and plenty of deer and wild turkeys passing through, yet you'll still be close to all that Bear Lake has to offer. Enjoy a large living area with an open kitchen, a downstairs kids' room that attaches to a game room with air hockey, and close proximity to the Bear Lake Golf Course.
What's nearby: This home sits four miles south of downtown Garden City, just half a mile from the Bear Lake Golf Course. You'll be a few minutes' drive from dining, shopping, and the famous Bear Lake raspberry shakes in town. The Garden City area offers wonderful year-round fun, with countless beaches, marinas, and hiking and biking trails in the summer and hundreds of miles of snowmobiling and skiing trails close by in winter (including Beaver Mountain Ski Area 16 miles west). There is never a shortage of things to do!

Our family had a lovely time staying at this cozy Bear Lake cabin surrounded by snowy winter. It was great for all ages and for enjoying the outdoors.

Beautiful cabin with awesome view of Bear Lake
The cabin is so cute and very nicely built with every amenity we could have asked for. The decor is adorable and welcoming and the large spaces were so perfect for my husband and I and our friends (a family of 4 with 2 dogs). Would love to stay here again!
The area was beautiful. The lake fantastic. The home great

Comfortable family get-away
We really loved how roomy this home was for our family for our Christmas retreat. The porch, even in the winter, was a favorite. And the view of the lake was splendid.

Comfortable family getaway!
The place was quiet and very comfortable. The view from the deck was clear and relaxing. Great place for morning coffee or refreshments at night.
Having beds on every floor provided privacy for the family. Highly recommended. Thanks for the memories.

Wonderful experience
We had a wonderful stay in Bear Lake at this cabin. It is extremely clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and the fall colors from the balcony were beautiful. They had a lot of toys for our kids to play with which was a huge plus. The air hockey table was also a wonderful surprise. I will definitely be staying here again and highly recommend it to any family.
What a beautiful location! Very quiet neighborhood. The house is clean and very well stocked. Ww had everything we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms. The beds were very comfy and there were extra blankets and pillows. Seems they thought of everything including a basket of things for pets. I've stayed here before and will stay here again!
The house was very comfortable for the 4 of us. Excellent seating on several nice leather sofas and loveseats. The kitchen was well equipped. The deck is fantastic. Did I mention the view of the lake?
We had one problem, the electronic door lock died. A call to the property manager solved our problem promptly.
For the kids there is a foosball table down stairs.

Great house for bear lake
Situated on the foot hills over Bear lake. Great view for the morning sunrise. views of the lake on both floors. I read and napped in the loft over looking the lake some days. The area was very quite, We where there during the weekday however. Quick drives to many surrounding areas. Everything in the house worked great. We stayed in late may and the basement quarters stayed very cool. We enjoyed this home very much, would rent again if we headed back to this great high desert area. If you ever wondered about those old western movies that had mountains, sagebrush,Juniper trees mixed with pine trees and views and roads that go on forever this is an area you must visit.

Cute cabin needs a few changes.
We really liked staying at this cabin. The location was great. The views were amazing! The queen bed upstairs is very uncomfortable and needs to be replaced or perhaps a pillow topper should be put on the mattress. The Wi-Fi is no good and some of the cookware needs to be replaced. The largest cooking pan is so warped that anything that has liquid, eggs, water, etc., spills out the back of the pan towards the handle. The cabin is well decorated, and the other furniture is very comfortable. Plenty of space for 10 of us. Lots of great wildlife came through the yard. I think with a new mattress, and some updated cookware, this cabin could be perfect.

Clean and beautiful view!
The house was clean and the views are beautiful. The area is quiet and easily accessible. Checking in and checking out was simple and staff were friendly and very responsive.
It’s a beautiful cabin, beautiful sunrises stars at night. We saw a family of wild turkeys, which was pretty amazing overall had a great time love the pictures downstairs didn’t realize that they were actual puzzles which is really really cool.

Cozy and clean dog-friendly cabin
We really enjoyed our 4 days at this cabin - it was very clean (and I am picky) and was well-stocked. I would 5/5 recommend this cabin and would definitely stay there again.

The view was great from the balcony. We enjoyed the wild turkeys that came into the yard every evening. It was close to things. And plenty of room for all of us.
