The nicest house to rent in Bear Vally
What an incredible stay! This home is enormous (Our group of 10 didn’t even use the guest house, which sleeps 4) and gorgeous. It’s clearly the nicest home availabie for rental in Bear Valley, has incredible views. Is recently renovated (extremely high end) and has the most attentive host, Andrew, who is immediately responsive to any questions and takes care of anything that comes up. I couldn’t recommend this house more highly. A great house and a great value, considering what you get and how many people fit comfortably. Go for it and Enjoy!

Perfect setting for a group retreat!
The Snowshoe Lodge was such wonderful place for our group’s weekend retreat. The pictures truly don’t do this property justice - it was stunning. While the lodge is large, it still felt cozy and was so charming. It was nice having so many different spaces to gather for our various activities, especially the 2-story game/yoga room. And such a luxury to have 6 bathrooms! All the amenities we needed were there. The hillside location provided breathtaking views of the surrounding valley. Arielle, the on-site host, was super friendly, patient and responsive with my many questions, and accommodating of our schedule. And if you love dogs, you’ll absolutely love her dog, Love, who became our official retreat mascot/companion. We highly recommend this property and would definitely book again in the future.

Stayed here for the weekend with some friends had a fantastic time! Gorgeous views of the valley and mountains and the house was stunning with a lot of rooms features. The kitchen was definitely the highlight with plenty of space to cook in and entertain. Would definitely recommend and stay in again. The host of the property did a fantastic job of greeting us and making sure we had no issues with the house.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew

Host profile image
Hello! I’m Arielle, the on-site host at Snowshoe Lodge. I’ve been a seasonal Bear Valley local for ~20 years and would love to help you discover all of the amazing facets of our little hidden gem here in the high Sierras. I enjoy snowboarding, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling during our winter months, paddle boarding, hiking and adventuring during our summer season.
I’m a gourmet private chef with a background in biosciences and extensive experience in the hospitality industry- I hope to make your stay the absolute best experience it can possibly be!
I’ll be transporting your party to and from the lodge upon arrival and departure in our Polaris General side-by-side quad that is outfitted for traveling over snow.

While I do live on-site in a fully separated guest house, I’ll be very mindful of both your privacy and mine. I’m available during your stay for various services, such as concierge and private cheffing, and for any issues that may arise.
You will also encounter my furry companion while staying at the lodge.🐕Her name is Love, she’s a Carolina dog who’s very well trained/behaved. She adores children (I can’t emphasize this enough, she is the BEST dog with kids!) and welcoming new guests to the lodge.

Why they chose this property

Aside from its strikingly unique architecture and the best views in all of Bear Valley village, Snowshoe Lodge has an incredible local history. Formerly the full-time residence of actor Robert Conrad, the lodge has hosted many other celebrity guests and pro athletes over the years, such as Clint Eastwood. Known previously as “High Mountain Ranger”, this stunningly remodeled home is being offered to the public for the very first time in its infamous history as a luxury vacation rental.
