Gorgeous view of Bear Lake! We had a wonderful family vacation here. It was comfortable and had everything we needed. The only negative things are that you have to verify your identity with Vacasa, a rental agency, after you've booked with VRBO, or they will not grant you entrance to the property. The hideaway bed in the living room is basically unsleepable because it's flimsy. We just used a cot we had. It's an older home, but it met our needs. I would definitely stay here again.

HORRIBLE! For the price we did not expect much but … this was ridiculous. The place was filthy! There was popcorn from the last people. The chairs had dirt under them from who knows how long. The chairs had never been moved. The toilet didn’t flush. The shower didn’t drain. The shower curtain was covered in people’s dirt and makeup. They tell you to take off your shoes but the rug had never been vacuumed. The mattresses had HUGE sink holes in them. The ceiling fan was missing a screw so the blade was barely hanging on. There was no AC but the directions tell you to turn it down when you leave. The road to the place was almost impassable with a boat trailer, huge pot holes, horrible clearance. We left early because of how gross it was. Some TLC would be appropriate.

Great views.

This lodging had a very impressive view. It was clean but could use some organization in the kitchen and some improvements to the approach driveway. Rocks and big holes make it difficult to back a large boat trailer up to the house.

Great location, dirty and dated house.

This house has a great location with amazing views and a nice floorplan. Should have read the reviews because the house is not clean. It had dog hair everywhere and the bathrooms floors and around the toilet were just gross. Very dated in the bathrooms. and living room furniture. Thank goodness for Sue and Vacasa who brought us clean bedding. We have a small ShihTzu who doesn't shed so maybe to those with shedding dogs it won't bother them.

This property needs a lot of TLC

Bugs, bugs and more bugs. Scary from the outside…didn’t even dare turn off the truck. The inside was tolerable because it was clean, but this property needs TLC everywhere you look. Too many things to mention. Not boat friendly. Slow internet, no A/C, no ice maker, not stocked with anything…not even a bottle of salt. Shower was super slippery with no hand bar in case you fell. Looks like someone already went through the shower (big crack). Fell on the rocks on the walkway exiting one time. Fan in ceiling “clicked” all night long, something scratching in the wall all night long. But! The bed was pretty comfortable! Sorry, but I won’t stay here again until they make many, many major improvements.

Hot no AC. Lots of bugs/knots. Holes in screens.

Location was good. Ice maker in fridge broken. No AC. Probably said in info, but missed that big detail. One shower in bedroom. 2nd shower rather than bedroom would have been nice. Pet friendly was good. I should have studied the fine print.

Our experience could have been better; First impression-address sign upside down, property under some sort of construction, south side, completely unkempt Hair ball left on the rug in the master bedroom Sunflower seed husks left in the bathroom on the sofa on the living room rug Shower head not on properly installed sprayed all over the bathroom, had to wrap with tape and a hand towel to shower They did have WiFi but if your looking for and cable news your out of luck, but they did have Netflix and other channels Bed was VERY comfortable, couch not so much, extra blanketing in closet were dirty Overall I feel the property wasn’t ready to be rented, compared to outer places we rented it was 5 out of 10

Needs updating

There was not enough room for everyone to sit comfortably for sox adults, only one chair and a small couch that was a pullout that we had to make and was not clean, we had to vacuum off the hair. The rocking chair was broke and in a closet in the second bedroom. Dresser drawers in the master are broken. Should have an icemaker, not trays. Lights were out, no outside lights at all, they need to be priority. Very dark inside, not enough lighting need more lamps. Mattress was not comfortable, very old and matress had urine stains. The master bed also needs a new bedframe, held up by a wood box. My husband worked in hospitality and is very thorough at inspections. Downstairs smells like mold and the dryer vents into the room. Showerhead needs to be replaced, it sprays on the wall. The toilet runs in the master bathroom, had to shut the door at night so we couldn't hear it to go to sleep. Overall it was just not clean, we did cleaning for ourselves. The positive is the view is awesome! (could really use a larger deck to enjoy it though) and made up for most of it. We saw lots of deer while we were here, enjoyed that. I do hate to make this all negative, but the house really needs some TLC.

Not happy

The rocking chair was broken, wicker chair was broken, one of the electric heaters was broken, and it was quite cold the weekend we were there. Not much heat coming out of the heat vents. No knobs on the kitchen cupboards and underneath of cupboards was very sticky. Dead spiders in the master bedroom drawers, did not feel that the home was cleaned very well. We tried to contact the company and was on hold for over an hour before we gave up. I would not stay there again. The picture is deceiving, it looks like the property is a short walk to the lake, when in fact you have to cross the highway, and then there is a fence around the lake and it is not accessible due to being private property. Not happy at all!!

Mountain Meadow Home

Awesome place & location. A few repairs are needed, we left a list. VRBO needs to have the door codes changed between rentals. When we arrived a family was in our cabin. They got in because they had the lock code. They came a week early because they read the calendar wrong. It gave us an erie feeling all week about security. Aside from that one issue, we loved the place and would come back (now that we know the code).

Decent Dog Friendly Rental

We booked this property because it was dog friendly. The place is a little outdated and pretty hot in the summer (no AC), but it worked for a weekend getaway with the family and pups. ***Access to the property is a dirt road, so an SUV is recommended***
