Beaver Mountain has many issues that make it a frustrating place to ski. I've tried to overlook…read morethese as I've skied there from time to time over the years, but in late Dec 2024, I was harassed by a ticket checker in what turned out to be a humiliating experience. That experience has prompted this review. To begin, the lifts are all old and very slow. With only 1600 feet vertical on its biggest run and very little, if any, terrain that is actually above intermediate level, a good intermediate skier can descend from summit to base in about five minutes. The lift ride is a little more than about 10 minutes. So, three hours of "skiing" is actually two hours on the lift and one hour skiing, if you don't have to wait in line. But, if the lift lines are long, as they always are on weekends, the amount of time skiing as opposed to riding the lift and standing is even less, sometimes much less. The lifts are dangerous, especially the Beaver Face lift. There are no safety bars on the face lift or Harry's Dream lift and the safety bars on the Marge's Triple lift are not functional. Only the Little Beaver lift has a useable safety bar. The lifts are still loaded manually, often with distracted or belligerent operators. Tickets are scanned manually and lines are disorganized. Ticket checkers and lift operators are often rude to skiers and display annoyance at having to deal with them. Ticket and rental lines are long. Tickets are stamped manually, and a surcharge is added when purchased online, but still require standing in line to pick up. Parking is inadequate, especially on weekends. They advertise as family friendly, but the vibe I get is not family friendly. The attitude among employees impresses me as one of subdued aggravation at having to deal with customers. The only positive things about Beaver Mountain are the all-volunteer ski patrol and the ski school, although the latter is best suited for beginner and intermediate skiers. If you want a good ski experience close to Cache Valley, try Snowbasin. Snowbasin, a far superior resort, is only an additional 30 to 45 minutes from Logan. Snowbasin is more expensive than Beaver, but if your goal is to spend less money so you can in stand in line and put up with the aggravation of the place, then Beaver Mountain is the place for you.

f you're looking for a truly unique and peaceful hot springs experience, Maple Grove Hot Springs is…read moresomething special. We visited expecting a simple soak, but it turned into one of the most relaxing and memorable stops on our trip. The setting alone is incredible--nestled along the Bear River with canyon views that make you feel completely removed from everything. The mineral pools are natural and range in temperature, so you can move around and find your perfect spot. The water is rich in minerals and feels amazing, especially after a long day of exploring. What really stood out was how intentional the whole experience is. They limit the number of guests and require reservations, so it never feels crowded or chaotic--just calm, quiet, and honestly kind of magical. We also loved that you can turn it into more than just a quick visit. Between the camping, yurts, and cabins, it's easy to stay overnight and fully unplug in nature. Overall, Maple Grove feels like a hidden wellness retreat rather than just a hot spring. If you're looking to relax, recharge, and soak in some of Idaho's best scenery, this place absolutely delivers. Check out our video on our socials @reessroots

So far we've stayed in the Peacock, Teal, Latte and French Country rooms. Once, we came with my parents , and we shared the Lyon House across the street. Each time, we have loved our visit. The hospitality is fantastic-I always feel like I'm staying with a great aunt that loves to take care of her family. Really, it's that good. We have done the Dine and Unwind package, which includes a delicious dinner and a couples' massage. Best experience ever! If you're looking for a special getaway, be sure to consider this. The property itself has a lot of history-be sure to save some time to talk to Craig and Vicky about it's past. If you're looking to host an event, the upstairs area is perfect for that too!

The first thing they said when we walked in was feel free to explore and make yourselves at home which we totally did. Vicki and her husband Craig were great and they took care of us even making us a nice breakfast in the morning before we headed out. Would definitely recommend staying here.

They had all the necessities in the condo and I really loved their PILLOWS on the King size bed! They were amazing and the bed felt great too! Can't wait to come back!

We had a group of 83 people and filled every single room, yet the house never felt cramped. There was more than enough space for everyone to sleep comfortably, hang out, and enjoy different activities at the same time. Everything was spotless when we arrived. The bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, gym, movie theater, and pool area were all extremely clean and felt almost brand new. You can tell the property is very well maintained and professionally managed. The kitchen was fully equipped, which made cooking for a large group easy, and all the amenities worked perfectly. The views were absolutely incredible -- waking up to the scenery around Bear Lake was one of the highlights of the trip. It really made the whole experience feel special and peaceful. The management team was also fantastic. They were responsive, friendly, and always available whenever we had questions or needed anything. That level of support made planning and hosting such a big group stress-free. Overall, this place was perfect for a large group retreat, family reunion, or event. We couldn't have asked for a better stay and would definitely book again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a spacious, beautiful, and well-managed property!

The hot tub wasn't getting hot enough, it wasn't clean until we had to say something. So, for the first two days it wasn't usable. Then we had issues with the theater room, the remote wasn't working because the infrared from the remote to the receiver, which was in a locked closet, wasn't able to signal to each other, until my son in law put the front of the remote under the closet door so it can work. How fun was that! The powered theater seats weren't hooked up to power; the owners disconnected them. I should have been informed about that one. The heater in the garage/game room didn't work until we called for maintenance to come out. Then it really didn't heat up. There was a broken wall lamp upstairs that had electrical wires exposed. A big safety issue. A code violation? The beds were horribly hard. Many of the heating vents were closed when we first walked in. My poor husband had to open them for the heat to come through. And it was ice cold when we first arrived. For the money we paid, these things should not have been an issue. We rented this house mostly for the amenities. We did not get what was promised or what we paid for. I appreciated that they did send someone each time there was an issue. But the way I look at it, you are paying for everything to be at optimum working order or at least be told ahead of time that there are some things that may not be working well before you rent a property. Unfortunately, in our case things were not in optimum working order. Think twice before you rent a home with Bear Lake Luxury Rentals. You just may get a lemon of a deal. It's actually less money to go through other rental sites. I learned that after the fact. This company is not listed with the BBB either. So, where do I go for resolution? Who holds them accountable to patrons? I did reach out to the owner about these issues and some other issues not listed here, but no response yet.
