Moose Mountain Retreat - Lake Access & Views

Turquoise Bear Lake glows beyond the covered patio while dinner sizzles on the grill and the cauldron fire pit waits for dusk. Moose Mountain Retreat sleeps 12 across 4 bedrooms, a loft, and 2 full baths, with a stone gas fireplace, dining for ten, a barrel bar lounge, and covered decks framing lake and mountain views. Bear Lake State Park Marina in Garden City offers lake access for swimming, boating, and beach days.

Morning coffee on the covered deck comes with a sweeping view of bright blue Bear Lake and the mountains beyond. Inside, a vaulted living room gathers everyone around a stone gas fireplace, a log dining table seats ten under a rustic chandelier, and a barrel bar lounge with lake view windows sets the stage for game nights. Outside, the covered patio, the grill and smoker, and a cauldron fire pit ringed with stump seats make every evening an event. Each room carries a playful cabin theme of bears, moose, and fishing, perfect for a big family retreat.

Sleeping Arrangements
Total occupancy: 12 guests
Total beds: 7

With two king rooms for couples, two queen rooms, a loft, and a bunk bed for kids, the layout lets several families or a group of friends spread out and still gather in one place.

Bedroom 1 features a king bed and makes a roomy retreat for a couple, with the cabin's rustic lodge character all around.

Bedroom 2 offers a queen bed and suits a couple or a pair of adults who want their own space.

Bedroom 3 also features a queen bed, a cozy fit for grandparents or another couple in the group.

Bedroom 4 features a second king bed, giving another couple a spacious place to unwind after a day on the lake.

The loft holds two twin beds and a sofa, a fun hideaway for older kids or teens that overlooks the living room below.

A set of wooden bunk beds dressed in bear-patterned bedding sits beside a glass door to the outdoors, a favorite spot for younger adventurers.

Throughout the bedrooms, you will find log bed frames and log dressers, a tall log canopy bed with a patchwork quilt, fishing nets and poles above a headboard, bear and moose print bedding, a pine bed with a matching bench, and ceiling fans to keep the air moving.

Bathrooms
Two full bathrooms each offer a tub with shower and a wood vanity. One plays up the black bear theme with bear art and a shower curtain printed with a bear and her cubs, while the other leans into lodge style with a long wood vanity, a garland trimmed mirror, and a green moose shower curtain. Towels, body soap, toilet paper, and a hair dryer are provided.

Living Areas
The living room soars under a vaulted ceiling, with brown leather sofas and a recliner circled around a log coffee table and wildlife art on the walls. A stone gas fireplace with a log mantel anchors the room beside a built-in TV cabinet, and tall windows offer a glimpse of the lake. The loft railing above and the open flow to the dining area and kitchen keep everyone connected.

A second gathering space under a vaulted tongue and groove wood ceiling brings the fun: a barrel bar with stools, cushioned barrel chairs around a round table, a TV on a barrel stand, vintage snowshoes on the wall, and a leather sofa. Windows look out to blue lake water, and a door opens straight to the covered deck. Board games, a DVD player, and children's books and toys round out family nights in.

Kitchen & Dining
Knotty wood cabinets line a long counter with a double sink, dishwasher, electric range and oven, microwave, refrigerator, coffee makers, toaster, and blender, plus a wine glass rack ready for a toast. Baking sheets and cleaning products are stocked. The long log dining table seats ten on log chairs beneath a rustic chandelier, and a high chair and children's dinnerware help the little ones join in.

Decks & Patio
The covered deck pairs wrought iron bar chairs and a ceiling fan with a view across bright blue water to the mountains, and an outdoor fireplace and telescope make it the place to linger after dark. Below, a covered patio with wood beams and an outdoor dining table looks over green fields to turquoise Bear Lake, with the grill close at hand. On the covered front porch, a gas grill and smoker stand ready for slow-cooked feasts.

Fire Pit & Lake Views
On the grassy hillside, a large cauldron fire pit is ringed by tree stump seats with a stacked firewood rack nearby, and the wide blue lake and distant ridgeline stretch out beyond the flames. From the yard, the panorama takes in turquoise water, green fields, and open sky.
