Bear Lake Cabin

Several years ago my sister Chirstine and her husband bought a cabin in Bear Lake. Das and I haven't had a chance until now to get up there with them to check it out. This is the view of the lake from the patio.

We headed up there Friday morning and stayed until Sunday afternoon. Christine came up there with her two kids and her brother in law Dan came up to do a little hunting and brought his cute family up for Friday night.

So a bit about their cabin. It is beautiful! You walk into the main floor that has the kitchen, family room, and two master bedrooms. Both bedrooms were furnished with king sized beds, showers, bathtubs, and fireplaces.

The basement has two full bathrooms, and six bedrooms. Two bedrooms had queen size beds and 4 had bunkbeds with the full bottom. A ladder from the side of the kitchen takes you up into a small loft with 4 twin beds. So it sleeps a total of 24 people!

And I can't leave out all their toys: fourwheelers, a six person ranger (us up top) snowmobiles, and wave runners. We bundled the kids up for a small ride on the ranger. It was just noisy and bumpy enough to put Logan to sleep.

Unfortunately there wasn't enough snow to go sledding and the wind was blowing strongly. So we spent most of the time indoors just relaxing and playing games. Saturday Dan and his family went home, and Craig came up when he got off work. We all climbed into bed and I had Das turn our fire on cuz I got cold the night before. Around 2am we were both stripping down and throwing blankets off until I finally told Das to turn it off. And then the wind was howling all night long. We woke up, cleaned up, and packed up to head home.

We really enjoyed spending time with Craig and Christine. They are so generous to let people use their cabin. They have even given us a weekend to take up some of our friends. We are looking forward to it.
