We were a group of 8 friends in the area to ride the ORV trails. Ideal location to do that. After riding it was great to come back to the man cave garage and kick back, play some pool and watch the ballgame. We've been doing this annual trip for almost 20 years and this is one of the best places we've ever stayed. Thanks for the accommodations Jenny! We will be back and I highly recommend Blue Bear Hideout!

The location was perfect. Not a busy area, but plenty to do that’s close to the house. The house was amazing on the inside and out. The garage was our favorite part. The garage did not have A/C, but was a great spot to hang out with all of the games out there. Highly recommend this location for a getaway.
