Papa Bear Lodge: Excellent Lodge for Family Vacations

My family had a great time staying at Papa Bear cabin for a winter get away. As we planned the trip people thought we were crazy to go to Bear Lake in the middle of winter but we loved it. There was plenty to do in the cabin and lots of snow activities nearby. We watched movies, played board and video games, ate great food, went sledding, sat in the hot tub, and held our annual talent show. We loved the theater room, the large kitchen, the gas fireplaces, and nothing was more fun than sitting in the the hot tub in freezing weather looking at the snow covered trees. The large tables were great for board games and crafts. The size and layout of the cabin with large group areas and individual bedrooms allowed us to spend time together but have alone time if needed. This was particularly nice for the nursing mothers but the teenage girls enjoyed their privacy as well.
We also enjoyed activities outside the cabin and everyone we met from the community was great. We had a wonderful time sledding in Logan Canyon. ACE hardware had a large selection of sleds and the visitor's center at the summit of Logan Canyon pointed us to a great sledding hill. We saw lots of people on snow machines, cross country skis, and snow shoes. We would go again and recommend this place to all our friends.
The cabin was very clean and the owners were very friendly and helpful. We appreciated them having someone meet us there the night we arrived to make sure we knew how to use everything and everything was working. My wife, who has cleaned cabins before and notices every detail, was amazed at how clean the cabin was. There were plenty of towels and extra blankets.
