With unobstructed views of the lake, 7,700 square feet of space with large decks for entertaining, 3 cozy fireplaces, adequate seating in the dinning area for all and comfortable lounging areas, the Timber Lodge is the perfect location for your family rendezvous.

Splash Pad in the backyard, five TVs and Ping Pong, means no one will be left without something to do. An Adult retreat with fireplace, deck and TV, opens into the master bedroom and will ensure the balance of gathering time versus quiet time for the most discerning grownup.

Cathedral ceilings, and four individual balconies make bedrooms palatial. Eight foot sliding glass doors off the upstairs and lower level great rooms as well as off the dinning room allow for quick and easy access to the party decks and patio for outdoor dinning or lounging. Exposed beams and timbers, rock fireplaces and wood trim give you the mountain escape you're looking for.

Great facility, clean well-managed

We have stayed here many summers. Unfortunately this will be our last as we have outgrown its capacity. It is always clean, in very good condition. The host has been outstanding to work with. Great views of the lake. We have loved this as our base of operations for our annual Bear Lake reunion.

Family Reunion Fun

My husband and I were in charge of our family reunion this week with 40 people attending. The house was clean and well maintained and fit us all comfortably. The view was incredible and the neighborhood peaceful and quiet. We loved our time together and are grateful for such a beautiful space to do it in! Thanks to the wonderful host and owners for making our stay comfortable. Would definitely return again!

Mind Blowing Sunrise Spot Over Bear Lake

This house was great for so many reasons. We used the house for our Rising Son Men's Retreat and felt like it was conducive for the 40 men that stayed. Plenty of space to move around, clean beds, and gathering spaces. I would highly recommend. The host was very good with communication and friendly!

Great Reunion Home

We had such a great family reunion at this house! We had about 45 of us staying here, ages ranging from 10 months to 82. There was plenty of space! I thought maybe the group bathrooms would be an issue but they weren’t at all. The view was pretty spectacular. We had everything we needed to cook big group meals. Everything was clean. The kids loved the air hockey table and basketball game. If I had to give a critique I’d say that if you’re sleeping on the bottom floor you will definitely hear people walking above you, but a sound machine helped. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home!

Breathtaking View + Spacious!

Here's a polished version of your review for VRBO: --- My group absolutely loved this property! They kept saying how the listing description undersells the view—it is absolutely spectacular! There is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and enjoy their time. However, there are a few areas for improvement: 1. The house needs to be sprayed for earwigs. We found them from the basement all the way to the upper rooms, crawling in the carpet. 2. The property should have the wasp nests removed. There are quite a few, and they were bothersome during our outdoor activities. 3. It would be great if there were stairs leading from the deck to the yard. 4. The house would appear cleaner if the areas under the couches on the main floor were dusted and mopped. 5.We wish the landing at the bottom of the hill had grass, so that the hill could be utilized more for more activities Other than these issues, we had a fabulous time, and my group is likely to book again!

BL stay

This house is amazing if you’re looking for beds for a lot of people. We loved under the porch in the shade. The splash pad was fun too. We did find some things that weren’t clean (probably not owners fault) but the garage fridge was dirt and the oven mitts and apron from the kitchen too. I put the oven mitts and apron through the wash. If they hired organizers for the kitchen to label and put things in specific spots, they could level up this place. Overall, loved it and believe the owners are amazing!

Bear Lake home

Great view of the lake and area. Splash pad did not function properly. Kitchen well stocked. Overall a really good experience. Would have been much nicer to have a large screen TV in the main gathering room instead of the extra room off the master. A hot tub would have been really nice.

Perfect family reunion home!

This home was just perfect for our family reunion group of 30! Plenty of parking on the large driveway. Every person as they walked in the front door said “Wow!” The home is simply beautiful with amazing views of Bear Lake. Everything was very clean and well cared for. The beds were comfortable with nice linens and generous closet space in each bedroom. Great having separate A/C on each level. Highlights were the large deck and patio spaces with lots of comfy seating and eating areas. Evenings on the deck overlooking the lake watching the full moon come up reflecting off lake was unforgettable. Splash pad was so fun for the little ones. Having so many private bedrooms was ideal so each family could have own space while also having large gathering spaces for being together, playing games and eating meals. The kitchen was well appointed and open enough for us to prepare meals together. Loved the walk-in laundry room off kitchen with good counter space to store pantry items. The extra fridge in the garage was 100% necessary for our group and a second garage fridge would have been needed if our group had been bigger. We loved the ping pong table in the garage and other games in the house. A nice feature is that most of the bathrooms have multiple private shower/toilet rooms separate from sink/vanity area. The owner was wonderful to work with and very accommodating to our needs. I would 100% recommend this home to anyone and would absolutely love to book it again in the future.

Host profile image
My name is Andrea! I look forward to you staying in our vacation home. I love to know that people are at the cabin having fun together.

Why they chose this property

Winter or summer our family loves vacationing at Bear Lake! We built this property with family reunions in mind. We wanted a great view, plenty of rooms and beds and eating and gathering areas for the comfort of all to help create happy memories together. It's close to beach access and restaurants.

What makes this property unique

The Splash Pad in the backyard is a favorite for kids of all ages! The decks and balconies will allow everyone to enjoy the lake view and outdoors immediately from the large indoor gathering areas. Our hidden bookshelf door and loft beds will excite the imagination of all ages.
