DESCRIPTION: Kick off your next vacation with us here at Swimming Bear Lodge! Located off Paradise Heights, the home has lake access as well as close proximity to all local attractions. When first walking in you are welcomed by an open concept living room, with floor to wall wood finishing's and wall of windows allowing the home to be flooded with natural light creating an extra sense of warmth and comfort. Wake up feeling rejuvenated and take advantage of the ample outdoor seating on the back deck to soak in the sunrise! Go for a brisk morning walk throughout the quiet neighborhood, then head out for a fun filled day! In the Winter months make sure to pack up your snow gear for a day spent out on the slopes where there are trails for all levels of skiing or snowboarding. Looking for something to do indoors? Head over to Deep Creek Fun Zone for an afternoon of pizza, laser tag, and arcade games. There is also plenty to do in the summer! Pack your swimsuit, rent a boat and spend the day cruising across the lake; where after working up an appetite, dock the boat at one of the many restaurants along the lake! The fun doesn’t end there. Be sure to explore the State Park trails nearby or book an appointment to go horse back riding through the mountains. After an action-packed day head back to the house for an evening of relaxation. Fire up the gas grill and start a fresh, hot BBQ dinner or soak your muscles in the warm bubbles of the hot tub. On cooler evenings, challenge the kids to a family game night on the pool table or sit in front of the wood fireplace for a chill movie night. End the night out back roasting smores and sharing your favorite highlight of the trip. The possibilities are limitless, come book your stay now!
