This is my 2nd time staying here. I love it. Although last night while I was sleeping I heard some noise coming from the floor where I had my bag. I remember I had a closed bag of chips. I heard lots of noise coming from my bag bookbag. And when I woke up. I see the new bag of chips had a whole where a rodent tried to get into the bag. A little disappointed.

Thank you

The staff was extremely polite, professional and dedicated no matter when I'd come to the front desk. Beautiful surroundings. The lodge is not that far even when walking to it, so save yourself the complaining. You're there to walk anyway lol. Will be back for sure.

Stayed at the Overlook Lodge in Bear Mountain and it was a really nice experience. The lodge has a cozy, rustic feel with beautiful views of the lake and surrounding mountains. The rooms are simple but comfortable, and it’s very peaceful compared to the busier parts of Bear Mountain. It feels like a getaway spot where you can actually relax.

Everything was wonderful except the restaurant service. We ordered drinks and a salad. The drinks took a long time to arrive and the salad never did. We finally just asked for the bill. We were there for an hour and a half.

A cute bear themed hotel

Overall our 2 nights stay at the hotel was good! It’s clean and comfortable. The lake was nice. The bear mt inn has multiple buildings around the lake. We got a room on 2Fl at the overlook lodge which was a bit far from the main building with no elevator. We didn’t bring a car so we had to walk back and forth multiple times a day. It takes 20min at least to walk and the restaurant and cafe at the main building closes at 3pm, 7pm Mon-Tues. Don’t forget to bring cash for the pool($5/person) and renting a boat($50+).
