Awesome amenities and plenty of room to relax.
We had a wonderful stay at Old Bear Creek. The home was clean and so much room. We enjoyed having multiple tables .. we played many games of dominos and other games. The pool was wonderful! Then at night we hung out on the patio and watched the Perseid meteor showers! We hope to return next year!

Absolutely Perfect!
The house and amenities MORE than met our expectations, and communication with the owners was easy! This was the 13th year of our families vacationing together, and everyone agreed this was the best house we’ve rented so far! Hopefully schedules line up so we can rent this house again next summer! 😃

Perfect Vacation
We just returned from a wonderful week with family visiting from England at old bear creek. The house is perfect. Plenty of room for a big family or group of friends to come together or enjoy quiet time alone in the many well thought out spaces in the home. A lovely pool outside (a couple of floaties, pool towels and an airpump included) and lots of outdoor dining/lounging options. House is very clean and beautifully decorated. Kitchen is well equipped and big enough to make meals for the family. Beds are super comfortable (one is shorter than the other and would be perfect for a child or shorter adult) water pressure in bathrooms is very good. The many thoughtful touches around the house (coffee flavors, scented candles, lotions) makes it just perfect. You will not regret a stay here. We'll definitely be back.

Great for our large group!
The lodge was great! It could fit a lot more than advertised. I was worried about the pool being warm enough because it isn’t heated, but it was wasted worry, the pool was perfect and the kids played in it the entire time! The location was great for going to lake Hamilton, running to the store, hunting crystals, etc. The house was great for having multiple areas for puzzles, games, movies and hanging out to all occur without interfering with each other. We even had a storm one night where we turned off all the lights and just watched/listened from the wrap around porch…super cool. We did have to run to the store the first night and grab a few essentials for the kitchen…like trash bags, ziploc containers, detergent and wash cloths/sponges, kitchen towels, etc…but those items are always an unknown until you get there. But, overall the house was perfect for what we needed and was larger and more accommodating than we expected.

Great Spot!
Huge house with lots of space and amazing wrap around porch. Super clean when we arrived, easy check-in, nice appliances, new TVs, and ample kitchen supplies. Pool was nice and clean with some extra rafts and an inflator available. The game room downstairs was really fun with air hockey, bags, ping pong, and TV. Our two kids thoroughly enjoyed running all around the place. Everything seemed to be well kept and actively maintained. Location was nice and quiet, but not too far a drive from activities in the area. There's a dollar store near by with basics and a few restaurants too. We had a crazy heavy hail event that damaged the water line at the house and the host came to help troubleshoot and get it fixed promptly. They stayed in communication and were helpful and friendly. Fortunately, the covered parking saved our car from damage. We had a great stay, would definitely do it again!
