The primary suite is a stunning private room on the main floor with a walk-in closet, sitting area with fireplace, walkout to the porch, and a two-person jet tub. It’s warm and cozy and romantic, with beautiful views into the backyard.

The second level has four bedrooms, each with a comfy king size bed. Two have additional loft beds. The Castle Room also contains trundle beds and is decorated for the kids.

Two of the bedrooms on the second floor share a full bathroom (and laundry space), a great layout if you’re sharing this lodge with multiple family units.

Guests can self-check in with an electronic keypad. Guests must be able to comfortably navigate stairs, as there are four front steps up to the front door (plus stairs to the upper and lower levels).


* Apple Canyon Lake Amenities Are Included - Woohoo! *
While staying with us you will have access to Apple Canyon Lake’s marina, beach, and pool. 16 guest passes and a parking pass are provided.


* Other buildings on the property *
Onsite is an 1850s schoolhouse and a large storage unit with long term storage rentals. Sorry, no access to either of these buildings for your safety. Please stay off the schoolhouse porch, and don’t try to enter - this building needs some work! Currently, no access to the garage or the treehouse; the treehouse also needs a few modifications before it becomes kid safe.

Welcome to the country where the city is far and fun is near!
The neighborhood is farm and ranches with a mile or more between neighbors. There's no light pollution and access to town is just 5 miles away!

Family Christmas
We really enjoyed this place. We had 9 adults and 4 kids. More than enough beds and space for all, with room leftover. The addition of the hot tub made everyone happy. We plan on coming back in the summer to be able to use the massive pool. Great communication with the host.

Amazing Christmas in Illinois
I can't say enough about this wonderful property, but even more impressive was the responsiveness of the hosts. Mara was amazing. We selected the cabin to have an early Christmas with our family coming in from all points of the globe. To start, Mara ensured the cabin was decorated for Christmas including putting a tree up for us. We then asked if there was a DVD player as we have Christmas favorites we like to watch together. There wasn't, so Mara went out immediately and got one installed for us. Finally, the house was ready early, so they allowed an early check in since we had some family arriving at noon. The cabin itself had everything we needed and plenty of space for our four generations (13 guests). It is beautiful inside with things to do on all three levels. We will be back this summer to enjoy the pool and other outdoor activities near by. I highly recommend the cabin to anyone looking for a great place to get away.

Roomy and Welcoming
This was a great place to gather our kids and 7 grandkids together in one place (ages 6 months to 10 years) and still have plenty of space. The weather was perfect for using the newly redone and sizable pool and our family had a blast! We also appreciated how responsive and easy to work with Mara (our host) was.

Why they chose this property

Rest, relax, and have fun in this majestic, custom built log cabin. Wonder Bear Lodge is perfect for multiple families to vacation together, with 7 different bedrooms and five bathrooms. This home accommodates a maximum of 16 people.

Play outdoors in the huge backyard, or go boating at nearby Apple Canyon Lake (amenity tags included, although you need to rent your own boat). During the winter, there's ski at Chestnut Mountain or hit the snowmobile trails in Stockton, and then come home to unwind in front of several different fireplaces. There's a huge kitchen for big meals, and lots of space (6,800 sq ft) to socialize with family and friends (or escape to a quiet corner of the house while everyone else is socializing!).

What makes this property unique

Two game rooms, 2 fireplaces, and a king bed in six of the seven bedrooms. Dive into the massive (43x21 ft) pool or enjoy the many benefits like the zero-depth pool and beach at Apple Canyon Lake which are only 10 minutes away.
