Great experience
Needed a place to stay as I fished the surrounding lakes. This was cheaper than staying at a hotel and was able to fish the lake the cabin was on in the evenings. Some nice panfish, bass, and a surprise walleye. Fished the lake very sparingly, but caught fish the little time I was out.Communication was excellent throughout the booking and stay. I even was given some spots to try fishing. The cabin was very clean and organized. I was very happy with experience and would definitely recommend staying here.

Ice Fishing trip
We enjoyed our stay we went out ice fishing everything was very close by and had access to everything we needed.
Good fishing in every direction. -20° outside and the cabin was very comfortable and had an excellent view of the lake, deer passing by and eagles landing on the ice.
We plan to return very soon!

Cozy Bear
Our stay was lovely. Property was very clean and the communication with the hosts was excellent. A few moments required communication with the hosts and they were extremely prompt and also followed up to make sure everything was taken care of. We were a little bummed the docks were already taken out for the season, but given the time of year we visited that’s not surprising.
The property was perfect for family walks and the time of year made leaf diving very fun for our toddler son. Also it was very close to good restaurants, and the hosts provided us excellent recommendations!

Relaxing Fall Getaway
Beautiful fall getaway. The colors we almost at peak. Quiet, relaxing and peaceful! Cottage was perfect and comfortable. Views of the sunrise were amazing. The only thing that would have made this trip off the charts was if the Aurora borealis would have been visible. Thank you Jon and Amy for an enjoyable visit!

Very Nice Cabin
A very pleasant stay. In fact, my nephew who had visited us their recently asked for the info regarding the cabin so he could rent it, unfortunately, the days he wanted weren't available. Maybe next year he'll try again. If we are ever in the area again, I would like to rent it again. Thank You!!!

Cozy Bear Lodge is truly Cozy!
My wife and I had a 3 week stay at Cozy Bear Lodge and it was wonderful. The cabin is very comfortable and well furnished. It's location on the lake is amazing. The fact that the cabin is positioned in a no wake zone keeps things quiet and perfect for kayaking with the (2) kayaks provided with the cabin. Our stay was better than we could have ever anticipated. Jon and Amy were extremely attentive to ensure our stay was perfect. Highly recommend Cozy Bear! We'll certainly be back again! The Larson's
