Winter Travel Notice: Weather conditions can change quickly in Bear Lake. 4WD/AWD is highly recommended Prime Properties Guest Rules & Stay Standards: Our goal is to provide every guest with a clean, safe, comfortable, and accurately represented stay. These standards are intended to protect our guests, our property owners, our neighbors, and the homes entrusted to our care. By booking and occupying the property, guests agree to follow the rules below, along with any property-specific requirements included in the listing or arrival information.
1. Arrival Inspection & Reporting Concerns Please take a few minutes to look over the home when you arrive. Any cleanliness concerns, existing damage, missing items, maintenance issues, or conditions that may affect your stay should be reported to Prime Properties within three (3) hours of check-in, preferably through our direct phone line and with photos when applicable. This reporting window gives our team a reasonable opportunity to verify the condition and provide a timely solution during your stay. Concerns first reported substantially later in the reservation or after departure may be more difficult to verify and may limit the remedies we are able to offer. Urgent safety, water, electrical, heating, access, or other significant issues should be reported immediately.
2. Smoking & Vaping Smoking and vaping are not permitted anywhere on the property. This includes inside the home and garage as well as decks, patios, yards, hot tub areas and all other outdoor spaces. Guests may be responsible for reasonable costs associated with smoke remediation, odor treatment, additional cleaning, damaged furnishings, or other restoration required as a result of smoking or vaping. Where permitted and properly disclosed, smoking-related remediation charges may begin at $200 and may increase based on the extent of the work required.
3. Pets & Assistance Animals Only pets permitted by the individual property`s listing may stay at the property. All required pets must be included on the reservation or approved by Prime Properties before arrival.

Please note that ESA’s (emotional support animals) are not registered service animals. Prime Properties does not charge a pet fee for qualifying Service Animals. Guests remain responsible for damage caused by an animal to the same extent they would be responsible for other damage caused during the reservation.
4. Check-In & Check-Out Times Please observe the check-in and checkout times listed with your reservation so our teams have adequate time to prepare the property between guests. Early check-in or late checkout must be requested at least 24 hours in advance and is subject to availability. A fee may apply depending on the amount of additional time requested. Requests requiring a substantial extension may require booking an additional night. Unauthorized late departures that interfere with housekeeping or an incoming reservation may result in an additional charge, including up to $50 per hour where disclosed and permitted.
5. Registered Guests, Visitors & Events The person named on the reservation must be part of the group staying at the property unless the booking platform allows otherwise or Prime Properties provides written approval in advance. Only the number of overnight guests included on the reservation may occupy the property unless additional guests are approved.

The booking guest is responsible for the conduct of all members of their party and any approved visitors.
6. Cancellation & Date Changes The cancellation policy shown on the listing at the time of booking applies to the reservation. Requests to change reservation dates do not automatically override the cancellation terms associated with the original reservation.

These supplies are intended to help guests get started and are not necessarily stocked for the entire length of every reservation.

Items not claimed within that period may be discarded or donated.
9. Damage, Missing Items & Excessive Cleaning Please report accidental damage or broken items as soon as possible. Early communication often allows us to resolve an issue quickly and prevent further damage. When practical, please leave damaged or broken items in a visible location rather than throwing them away. Guests may be responsible for reasonable repair, replacement, specialized cleaning, or labor costs resulting from damage, missing property, misuse, or conditions beyond normal use of the home. Charges will be supported by documentation when required by the booking platform.

Beautiful, clean home with large gathering spaces.Kitchen was very organized and well furnished with large island for food prep and plenty of dining seating.Access to Ideal Beach and their amenities was a huge plus!Would definitely rent again!
Shimmer Shack was wonderful. It is well appointed and had everything we needed. The beds are comfortable and kitchen well stocked. It was a wonderful place for our work retreat. Thanks for the great stay!
Hosted a board game weekend for a small group of friends here and it was perfect. Great space, well appointed, clear instructions, and lots of amenities. I bet we’ll come again and next time bring the kids! Thanks!
The property has an amazing view. Easy check in and love all the details and cleanest of this home. The pictures do not to justice! Love the fast communication from the host. Very helpful and informative. Our family loved this home. We will definitely come back.
When I was looking for a place, I looked at this property several times, but I could not tell from the pictures how big it actually was and this place was gigantic. I think that we ended up staying with about 18 people, and there was so much room for all of us and things for people to do of all ages. There was a projector outside with the hot tub, which was super fun along with video games ping-pong all of the TVs worked air-conditioning was great. Everything worked perfectly plus the amenities were outstanding. There was not one item that I was wishing I had that I didn’t have including an amazing pizza cutter that who thinks of this stuff if you’re considering a family place to stay, I would highly recommend and the people were so easy to communicate with Checking in and out making sure we had everything that we needed 10 out of 10 !!
This place has it all! I do mean everything! From first impressions of a curated and decorator quality furnishings to an organized kitchen to a hot tub movie theater. If you have a family reunion, this is the place to stay! There were more than enough beds for my whole group and if we didn’t go to the private beach access (which was awesome), then there was more than enough fun things to do just inside with ping pong, video games and board games. It entertained kids as young as 9 and as old as 80. It smelled and looked great as soon as we walked in. The kitchen had just about every appliance you could need including an instapot and crockpot. It had tons of plates, bowls, cups, and silverware. The bathrooms were well stocked with the showers all having shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. There is even two laundry rooms. In essence, you can’t go wrong with this place
