Loved our Stay at Bear Lake

We spent four nights at Bear Lake Reserve and we loved every minute of it. The house was very well appointed with everything we needed. Check in was very easy and the greeter at the guard house was so friendly and shared lots of useful information. We loved spending time on the large screen porch in the mornings and evenings and enjoying the beautiful views. We also enjoyed the club house, pool and lake amenities. We can't wait to go back!
