Dare to get "board!" Bear Lake's Game Night Retreat, located in the heart of Garden City, will bring your family together again around your favorite board games. After a day at the lake, in the mountains, or sampling shake shacks nearby, find yourself settling in for a relaxing--or competitive--evening of laughing, arguing, and making memories over who built the longest road or slapped the card-pile fastest. Dust off the games you used to play--or try some new ones. At the Game Night Retreat, there's sure to be a favorite for everyone.
FREE BOAT PARKING
Don't worry about parking--there's plenty available for your family/friends and toys. Not only do you have access to 2 garage spaces + 2 driveway spaces, but there's a free parking area nearby for your trailers & toys (a rare find in Bear Lake!)
LOCATION
Not only do you get an end-unit with increased privacy and space, but you're just a block away from all Garden City has to offer: famous milkshakes, restaurants, window shopping, souvenirs, go-carts, "Old Ephraim's" 28-inch pizza, a twilight walk through the park's boardwalk to the beach (fireflies in May!), and more.
Shortly before your stay with us, you will be invited to access our digital guest guide, complete with everything you need to know about your stay. We'll share details about the home, local eats, activities, events, and more.

CLEANING
Cleanliness and our guest’s comfort are our top priorities. In addition to a full top-to-bottom dusting, scrubbing, deep clean, and sanitizing between guests, our cleaners go above and beyond. Here are just a few reasons we stand out:
—All laundering is allergy sensitive—we only use gentle, scent-free, dye-free detergents
--All bedding (sheets, pillowcases, quilts, and throws) is washed and sanitized frequently. You can rest assured that the bedspread you're snuggling into is all for you!
--Your shower curtain liner is also washed after every guest. The only bubbly body bumping into it will be yours!
-Every surface is dusted, cleaned, and sanitized every time.
-Every pillow, pillow cover, and sofa throw is washed regularly.
-Your part is small-- While we expect you to respect the property and hope you'll leave it tidy, you're on vacation and our checkout procedure is simple--just a few quick things.
Your privacy and property security are important to us. There are 2 external security cameras at the property (porch & driveway--no internal views, of course!)
Check which dates work for you, then request to book. If your dates don't appear available, double check with us. We occasionally experience cancellations or calendar glitches.
We can't wait to host your vacation at the Game Night Retreat @ Bear Lake!
