Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dan and Barb R. Aug 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The house was very comfortable and roomy for our family and the property was beautiful. The kids had a ball fishing from the pier, although it would have been nice to be able to swim also, but it was too weedy; and the pond was too weedy with no access to fish. The only other downfall is being right on a busy highway. However, overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider a future stay. ##### Dan and Barb R. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leah M. Jul 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing property We had an amazing experience here at bear hug house! The property was very clean and looked even better in person. I loved how it was right on the lake. Pictures made it look a little farther but it’s so close to the lakefront. We appreciated how professional and well organized the home owner was with communication and expectations. I liked the customized document about check in/out. She also provided us with info on things to do around town which was very helpful. We loved that they provided a bunch of games, movies, books, and things to do on the water. Nothing but great things to say! ##### Leah M. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025
