Family Vacation

The first thing we saw was the cleanliness of the house. Our last rental was not very clean. The property owner was very attentive and took care of any questions or concerns we had immediately. The pool was great as was the beach and dock area.

Large lodge with indoor pool/spa - a bit hit with the kids

Property was well suited for our families - the split sleeping areas & TVs helped allow for quiet time. The deck and main living area were wonderful as were the fire pit on the beach. We enjoyed the ladder ball and corn hole as well.

Large lakefront house

We had a wonderful time at this house! We were a group of adults, family and friends and one infant, celebrating a birthday. The rooms were all wonderful. The host even had a pack-n-play for the baby to use so we didnt have to bring one. The weekend was very cold, but the indoor pool and spa made the weekend a great time. There is so much space in the house for everyone to have their own area, but also come together for meals and game time. Thank you Dee and Chris for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful Property, Great Owners, Awesome Getaway!

We booked this home for a fall getaway to celebrate my parents 50th anniversary. We had 12 people total with wide age ranges and everyone had a great time. The house sits right on Eight Point Lake with a beautiful view of the water. The house itself is a unique gem. With 5 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, a custom table that seats 18, two living rooms, an indoor pool and spa, multiple Roku TVs, two fire pit areas, and an expansive back deck area with awesome landscaping leading down to the dock and beachfront area there is plenty of space with ample things for people to do. Dee is a wonderful host and communicates very well. She responds quickly to questions and is very proactive in reaching out. She was kind enough to let me know they were having a minor problem with their pool. I was concerned because we booked this house with the indoor pool being a major deciding factor. We were traveling with 6 kids in October and the weather wasn’t looking great for our trip. Having the pool was a make or break part of this trip. Dee got their pool guy out prior to our arrival and had him come back and check in on things while we went out to eat one day. I’m sure fixing the pool on a weekend came at a significant expense, but Dee made sure to get it done and have it ready for us to enjoy the whole weekend. The town is very small, but there is a nice coffee shop and general store just a few minutes away. There is also a very nice greenway close by that made us wish we had our bikes.

Great for a big family get together!

We had a great weekend at the Black Bear Beach Lodge! Chris and Dee were very communicative and welcoming. The house itself is large and perfect for a big family gathering. The kids spent most of the time on the lower level playing a variety of games and swimming in the pool. We unfortunately didn't have warm enough weather to swim in the lake but we enjoyed the view from the deck, and even saw/heard loons one evening! The house was well stocked with towels, clean linens, plates, mugs, cooking utensils and pots/pans. We would definitely stay again! Thanks for a great weekend!

Long weekend getaway

This house was perfect for our group. The kitchen was well stocked and well equipped for cooking for a party of 10. The kids loved the indoor pool. The lake was perfect for our stand up paddle boards too. Over-all we had a great time and would return again.

Very nice house

My mother in law, husband, and our 2 children enjoyed our stay immensely. The house was super clean and the amenities were just what we were looking for. Our whole group loved the pool and hot tub. Our two girls enjoyed the toys in the basement play area. We loved air hockey and basketball. The tvs were great to have the 4. No matter where we were or what we were doing we enjoyed the property. It was a great early spring indoor vacation!!! Thank you so much for letting us create long lasting memories at your property.
