Great location for us--close to Bear Lake, Paris Ice Cave, etc. The facilties were clean. We popped a breaker cooking breakfast but the host helped us immediately. Some of the beds were creaky making it hard for some to sleep. Two of the 3 grills did not work, but the host was not aware of that and will probably fix it. Great fire pit area which we enjoyed. Plenty of room for corrn hole and volleyball.
We had high hopes for this property as the site for our family reunion, but it ultimately fell short. The home is large and the kitchen is well-equipped. The yard was great for outdoor activities, and the location was perfect for enjoying 4th of July events.However, there were many disappointments. There was a camera inside the living space, which VIOLATES VRBO policy. The host dismissed our concerns. There was no TV, minimal comfortable seating, and per the house rules, we were not allowed to rearrange furniture to better suit our group. The beds were extremely uncomfortableâsome family members left early or slept in their vehicles. Temperature control was inconsistent, with rooms either freezing or very hot.After booking, we were informed weâd be sharing the property with another group, which was not disclosed. This led to noise and parking issues. WiFi was unusable, and access to advertised entertainment areas required an extra fee. No BBQ was availableâwe had to buy one. The cleaning checklist was excessive, especially given the homeâs poor condition at check-in: dirty bedding, rodent droppings, and cobwebs.We tried resolving concerns with the host, but received no support. The property has potential, but we wouldnât return unless major improvements are made.
We had a big family reunion at Bear Lake. 47 of us stayed here (60 altogether). Some people rented the adjoining apartments. There is a big eating area that would host dinners and breakfast for everyone. There is also a big grassy area with picnic tables for games and letting kids play around. The kitchen is beautiful and stocked with lots of pots, pans, griddles, silverware, bowls and 2 big refrigerator/freezers. You are about 20 minutes away from the Bear Lake Marina. Lots of fun to be had. I would definitely recommend.
Pros: Lots of beds, clean sheets and blankets
big dining room to feed a big group play card games
good kitchen and supplies
great host - available to help or answer questions
big outside area to play
big parking area
Cons:
Bedrooms are pretty tight - not a lot of room for luggage or closets
Beds aren't super comfy - doable for a few of days.
Overall we would definitely recommend for big groups.
We love allowing groups to make memories by bringing everyone together. We have a large family and look forward to the times when we can all be together. We also wanted a warm, fun environment for Corporate retreats and Events.
We love Paris because it is Quaint- you can feel like you are far away but you are close to amenities and everything you might desire. Step back in time to a slower pace, you can safely walk Main Street and see the local sights. Enjoy the History and the Peace and Quiet.
Our properties tell a story. Once used as a Granary our building has stood the test of time. Built in 1906 and beautifully renovated with a unique Rustic vibe. We can sleep 45 and with adjoining units up to 66. If you choose to rent the Paris Lumber Company across the street we can accommodate another 39 people and a total group as large as 105.
