Splash Pad! Spectacular Lake View!
Book now for your Summer or Winter get togethers! This home was built for your family reunion or corporate retreat. 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.
A hidden passageway through a bookshelf leads to an open wooden bridge into the loft above the garage for a magical experience. 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.
Within walking distance of a fishing pond and Garden City bike path as well as close to all major restaurants and parks.
Year-round paved and plowed roads allow for winter snow sports accessibility. The Lodge is only 15 minutes from the Beaver Mountain ski resort and the bike path allows for easy access to many snowmobile trails.
Ample parking and a pull through for easy boat parking.

This is a fantastic location! You’re right up the hill from a great park, a huge pickleball venue and all the restaurants & shops. Check-in was so easy and everything we needed was on-site.
45 of us stayed in this beautiful home. We lived the space, splash pad and watching the wild life in the field next door The location was perfect, clean se to beaches and restaurants. The view cannot be beat!
The house was in great condition and fit our group very comfortably. We were all cozy and sat out on the balcony every night and enjoyed the outdoor space.
This property was the perfect place to hold our extended family reunion. There was plenty of room for everyone in our large group. The splash pad was a fun bonus! We would definitely consider staying here again!
48 of us gathered in this large Bear Lake cabin. Adequate bed space for all. We have held our Bear Lake reunion in this facility for many years and always find it clean and well maintained. The hosts are responsive and great to work with.
Just a stunning view! Beautiful large home!
The entire family of all ages love our time there!
Enjoyed the games, secret passageway, splash pad! Would love to stay again in fall or winter to make use of the fireplaces inside and out!
Plenty of space and extra Toilet paper and shampoo etc!:)
Owner very accommodating for our groups needs!
Loved walking with kids to the nearby park!
We usually go camping with all the fam, but opted for a rental this go around. Loved all the house had to offer. There were plenty of things to keep us all busy and entertained…..even if it was just sitting around playing games and staying up too late!
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!
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!
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.
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!
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.
The property was very nice and was big enough that our family (21) was very comfortable. The main problem was the air conditioning. They had a note on the thermostat that you could not turn it lower than 72 degrees. When we arrived the temp. was 75 and increased thru the night. Apparently the unit had frozen over before we had arrived, we had to turn it off because there was no air coming out of the vents. Needless to say we had a hard time sleeping in the heat since there was no ceiling fans in any of the bedrooms. We called the property manager the next morning, she was out of town and left her children in charge who was no help at all until they finally got ahold of their mother who could then turn the fan on with an app. that controlled the temp. The house started to cool down the next evening. Every morning the sun filled the house through the beautiful windows, warming the house faster than the air was cooling it and blinding anyone in the kitchen. We have a fun close family that loves being together, we can be a little loud at times. The house was large enough that we could spread out and so the noise was no problem. The kitchen had enough dishes and with the 2 dishwashers we never had to use paper plates. All in all we enjoyed our vacation and the house. I just feel that for the price of the house we should be able to set the air at a comfortable setting that every room can be comfortable.
We have stayed multiple times at location. Always a great time. Plenty of parking, great views from the balcony, and plenty of space in the house to spread out. We enjoyed our stay once again!
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.
This house was absolutely beautiful! Very spacious and very clean. Andrea was available and helpful throughout the entire stay as well. Our group loved it so much we're thinking about coming back next year!
