Bear Shore Retreat - Beach Access & Bay Views

Blue water glints beyond the timber pavilion while the grill heats up and the kids race across the lawn. Bear Shore Retreat sleeps 14 in Garden City, with bay, lake and mountain views and beach access just across the road via the State Marina. A community clubhouse game room adds pool and foosball tables. Gather by the electric fireplace, cook on the gas range, then roll out onto the scenic bike path right outside.

Mornings here start with sunlight pouring through tall windows onto hardwood floors and knotty pine. They end with sunset dinners under the covered pavilion while the lake shimmers past the road. This craftsman-style home in Garden City has stone accents, a covered front porch with stone-wrapped columns and a wide green lawn. Inside, leather sofas, wainscot paneling and an electric fireplace set the tone for slow lake days. The Bear Lake State Park Marina sits just across the road, so beach time is never far away.

Bathrooms
Three full bathrooms and a half bath keep busy mornings moving. The en suite bath is the standout. It has a tile-surround soaking bathtub, a separate walk-in tile shower, a private toilet room and a granite double vanity with two framed mirrors.

A second full bath has a wood vanity with a granite counter and a tub and shower combo. A third pairs a long granite vanity and a large black-framed mirror with slate tile floors and a tub with shower.

The half bath charms with an ornate round mirror, a granite-topped vanity and white wainscoting beside the window.

Living Areas
The living room is bright and welcoming. Leather sofas, an armchair and an ottoman gather on a large rug, with board and batten wainscoting and a row of front windows. On cool evenings, settle in by the electric fireplace, set into knotty pine built-in shelves beneath the wall-mounted TV beside the open wooden staircase.

Theater Room
When it's movie night, the carpeted theater room delivers a large flat-screen TV, two plush recliners, a leather sofa and soft recessed lighting. It is the perfect spot to wind down after a day at the beach.

Kitchen & Dining
The kitchen pairs knotty alder cabinets and glass-front uppers with granite countertops and a farmhouse sink under the window. A gas range with a microwave above, a stainless refrigerator, a dishwasher and a pantry round it out. A coffee maker, toaster, ice maker, wine glasses, baking sheet and children's dinnerware keep group meals easy.

Gather around the solid wood dining table, with bench seating and ladder-back chairs with red cushions, beside three tall windows that keep the open layout bright.

Outdoor Living
The covered timber pavilion is the heart of summer evenings here. Picnic tables sit on a concrete patio beneath the roof, with the lawn and trees around you and blue lake water visible in the distance. Fire up the gas grill for a barbecue with a view, and let the kids run on the wide green lawn.

Community Clubhouse Game Room
The community clubhouse keeps rainy afternoons and late nights lively. Rack up a game on the ornate carved pool table, battle it out at foosball, or relax on leather sofas near the high-top table while sliding glass doors frame the green hills. A kitchenette with a mini fridge, microwave and granite counters keeps snacks close at hand.
