Our only critique would be that we wished they had a patio or deck around the Yurt to hang out.

About the host
Hosted by Melissa Spuhler
Oso Blu is owned by locals John and Melissa Spuhler and their son Leo. The Spuhler’s are full time residents of Garden City. Melissa, John and Leo love to hike, bike, boat, fish, surf, paddleboard, ski and snowmobile. Oso Blu started at the request of their son Leo who has Autism. Leo wanted a place in nature where he could share his knowledge with others raising chickens, ducks, miniature donkeys, goats, and other small animals as well as raspberry’s, and blueberries, which are not on the property yet, but hope to be added over the next few years. Oso Blu is not just another rental in Bear Lake it is a full unique experience which will bring life long memories.
Why they chose this property
Oso Blu overlooks Bear Lake with unmatched views and the location is ideal, right in the heart of Garden City with restaurants and stores within 1 mile.
What makes this property unique
