Big room, clean, with cute decor. We loved the extra sink, the microwave and the mini fridge. Nice location across from Bear Lake. Easy instructions for entry, no formal check-in required.

communication was great - the only thing I would suggest is adding the physical address when texting info - I had to go back to my original reservation to find it. with the multiple texts and email messages, I would have had it a few times over. otherwise, no complaints!

Very nice retro vibe in the room, beds were comfortable, and the room was clean. My only negative was the tiny area the toilet was in...but using the exsisting space and being retro........its the only option !

We liked the keypad entrance, parking right outside of the room, big bed, ceiling fan, community linen room with games and toys and minutes drive to attractions either way you go. Price point was very nice and plan on coming back when we can. Thank you Motel Bear Lake for being a wonderful place!

A welcomed welcome.
Loved the decor and comfy rooms (I slept like a dream!). The pool looked pristine and so inviting but was sadly closed for the evening by the time we arrived. We especially appreciated “a room for all” messaging, eco-friendly efrorts ie. ceramic mugs as opposed to paper cups in the rooms, recycling containers everywhere and that cans and bottles would be donated to a local youth organization- love this!

Solid value…retro vibes
Motel Bear Lake is like being in a time warp, in a good way. It’s no frills, but it’s convenient, clean and comfortable. We couldn’t get a room at Arcadia Bluffs, so we stayed here. 10 minutes to the Bluffs course. The check-in and check-out process was fast and easy. I’d stay here again if I’m in the area.
