This property is beautiful and perfect for a family vacation on the beach of Bear Lake. The house was clean and well managed. The hosts were great at communicating. Our family loved having the lake view from the house and especially loved being able to walk right down to the water.

Thank you for your kind words about our beautiful townhome and the great location. The beach is actually quite sandy, and we spend a lot of time each year to make sure it is in great condition. However, in some years the water recedes more rapidly during the summer, exposing some of the lake bed. I’m sorry that the lower lake level affected your experience.

Great place for grandparents with grandchildren

Love the yard, play set, easy beach access and townhome. With eight grandchildren between the ages of 18 months to nine they were never bored. The townhome is nice and yet at the same time made for families to feel comfortable and not stressed out about the kids being there. We’ve gone two years in a row now and hope to go back next year again.

Great Property, love the backyard and proximity to the lake! The only complaint would be the housekeeping does not do a very good job, but that could change based on who cleans each time.

Thank you for your review. So glad you enjoyed the beach and back yard. We have very exacting standards for our cleaners, so even though I personally inspected the property prior to your arrival, I have also met with the cleaners to reinforce our standards. We look forward to earning your next 5 star review.

Best place for a friends and family get away! We loved that the back yard and dock gave beautiful views as well as easy access to all the water fun! The house is perfect for larger groups, we had 12 people, with multiple sleeping arrangements. The house, bathrooms and kitchen were all well stocked and it made our vacation wonderful! Our one regret? We should’ve booked one more day to enjoy this amazing property!

Family reunion

Loved the location, playground area and beach access. Beautiful view of the lake. Only negative was no AC in upstairs bedroom. Lots of fans which helped. Would stay there again for sure.

Perfect location!

This was our third time staying here, and we just love it! It feels like our home away from home. The location is perfect- we walked to crepes and coffee for breakfast and the grocery store and restaurants are super close as well. The yard is very large and there is a play structure for the kids. The dock was so much fun as well, and there are kayaks and paddle boards to use in the garage. Definitely a bear lake gem!

It was great. Location was perfect, and our family very much enjoyed it. The only criticism was the A/C wasn't as good as could be.

We really enjoyed this property. Our paddleboarders and kayakers loved being on the water and having a dock. It was a nice walk to the grocery store and the famous raspberry shakes. My Texas grandson said he would rank it as 6 or more stars. There are a lot of stairs but my 92 year old mother did okay with the stairs on the lake side.

The Perfect Stay

Our family had a wonderful time at Sand Haven. The views are spectacular and the privacy is heavenly. The unit was very clean and accomidated all of our needs. It was wonderful to have plenty of parking and be able to walk to town when we wanted. We will definitely be returning to make more memories at this beautiful location. KJ
