Just what we were looking for.

My husband, 14-yr old son and I took a quick trip to LBL to reset before my son's school and fall activities started. The Bear Cave was just what we were looking for. The property was in great condition and had all the amenities we need. The location was perfect for accessing the State Park and restaurants. We enjoyed using the hot tub in the evenings. Our only suggestion is to request a roll of paper towels. We would definitely stay again.

Highly recommend.

Very clean and very beautiful inside. Lots of room. Kichen, living room and dining room is open and very good sized. Has the basic essentials for the kitchen. Washer and dryer in the bathroom. Very comforable beds. Easy to get too, on the main road but you cant hear the traffic inside. Very nice hot tube on your own private deck. Very close to the lake and The Pond restaurant is next door. Highly recommend The Pond to eat. Lots of towns close by to do other things. Highly recommend and will stay here again.

The Bear Cave

Needed a place in the area during our trip to visit family. The Bear Cave was in a great location. Plenty of activities in the area, and several stores and local restaurants close by.
