It was a wonderful mid-week vacation creating new memories full of funny stories, singing and reminiscing about our childhoods for myself, my Sister, Brother and our spouses.
Everything nice except the lock box did not operate correctly andvthe front door could not be locked with the key
Location was great! House had everything we needed. Perfect back yard for relaxing with our group. Issues were corrected in a timely manner. We would definitely stay again.
If privacy and a little seclusion is what you're looking for - this is it! House was beautiful, super clean, and very spacious. Outdoor area was perfect with the hot tub and fire pit. Wi-fi was a little spotty but that's a given considering the location. Just one suggestion, maybe posting somewhere on how the front and side door locks work. It was a little tricky but my husband figured it out. It was a great long weekend!
The house was lovely. But the door DOESNT LOCK. 7 young, out of state, women were staying in an unfamiliar environment in a house that didn’t lock. We were so creeped out by that. The check in process was supposed to include a lock box that held a key BUT THE KEY WAS IN THE DOOR WHEN WE ARRIVED and there were two key pads there that wouldn’t lock the door no matter how much we entered the code. The office employees were nice and easy to discuss this with. They sent someone over the next afternoon but we had to leave before they got there- the problem wasn’t fixed although their instructions said it was. We love the area but cannot recommend the Bears Lair just because of that single safety concern. There are not many complaints other than the door not locking and there being very very very poor wifi connection.
We had an amazing time at the Bears Lair! Our only bad thing is that we couldn't stay longer. Even with Covid we felt safe and that all precautions that could had been put into place. It was a wonderful vacation!
Had a great time at the lake, the property looked exactly as displayed in pictures and was clean. My only concern is that every morning myself, mother and uncle all woke up with a couple bites. Mine had gotten so big and burned to the touch that I had to seek medical help and was put on a steroid.
We enjoyed our stay here at Bear’s Lair. We had everything we needed at this property. My only complaint would be that there were a lot of cobwebs that hadn’t been cleaned off door handles outside. Other than that, my family enjoyed themselves for our graduation/birthday celebration trip. Thank you for having us.
Very clean with well-stocked kitchen and great outdoor amenities. Very beautiful!!
We loved this property! The house was beautiful ! Just a few recommendations ... maybe give a heads up that all 4 showers can not be in use at the same time otherwise everyone will have cold showers and give some direction on how to use the 5 remotes given for the tv ... we tried to watch a movie and it was impossible to just get regular tv or sign into Netflix !
