Great Stay!

We enjoyed the place and had a great time. Would definitely book again. Kitchen needs hot pads, hand towels and a few other things for washing and cleaning. Owner was very responsive.

Awesome house in an awesome location

Our family has stayed at several houses in Garden City for family vacations in Bear Lake over the last few years. This is by far my favorite that we've stayed in. Plenty of space, well take care of and only 30 seconds from the marina. Would recommend this to anyone!

Spacious, welcoming and clean. Lots of nice amenities.

We enjoyed our stay here. It was clean and welcoming. We loved that all of the bedrooms upstairs had their own bathrooms and the beds were super comfortable and cozy. Our youngest two kids stayed in the bunk room and loved all the toys and books. Finally, we really liked that every room had its own TV. We would recommend this place to others.

Black Badger Retreat was Fantastic

Our entire family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had no issues or challenges. The process was seamless, the home in great condition. It gave us a place to rest, gather, play games, and enjoy the olympics as well as all Bear Lake has to offer. We loved being by the store, the HOA pool, and the bikes to take pleasant rides to LeBeaus. We will definitely come back.

PERFECT!!

Came up with all family and it literally was the PERFECT place for a get a way! Clean, spacious, and well thought out. The beds were so comfortable, and plenty of bathrooms for everyone - that makes a difference when everyone is trying to get ready for the day. Great gathering spaces - the kitchen area is huge - we loved it. Doug was super responsive to any questions we had. The hot tub was a fun bonus, and having a washer/dryer is always nice. Our family is mostly adults now, but there's an awesome bunk room that would be so perfect if you have kids! Honestly I can't say enough positive about this place - it's just as beautiful as the pictures show!
