Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Bear Lake

Great stay, felt right at home. Easy check in and out, very responsive and accommodating host. Had everything we needed and some extras. Very homey and comfortable, wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Our dog enjoyed it too.

Fantastic home! We loved everything about this place. Lots of space for our family of six. House was clean, stocked with lots of amenities. Linens, towels, board games, books, kitchen supplies.. We loved the beautiful view, deck, fire pit, dock, paddle board and kayak. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back!

We loved our stay at the Hoxie Homestead. The location was central to all of northern Michigan’s cute towns and beaches. The property was clean and well laid-out. Loved the decor, and the master bed was super comfy and soft. The hot tub and sauna were perfect. We would certainly stay again.

Our stay in Interlochen at John’s place was great! The hosts went above and beyond our expectations and provided board/card games, pre-chopped wood for the fire pit, and a variety of snacks. The kitchen was fully stocked and the bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and spacious.

We came up for my bachelorette weekend, actually found this place as a last minute deal when our first place fell through. The house was beautiful, and everyone had plenty of room. We were able to check in early and the host was very responsive and kind. I would definitely stay here again if given the opportunity!

My husband and I, along with our 3 Siberian huskies stayed for 2 nights. We wished it was for longer! Jenna granted us an extra hr for check out which we really appreciated! Also, this house is incredibly clean. We were both impressed. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back. Something to note: there’s about 3-5 ft of water before you get into “muck” and the lake is full of seaweed. We brought our paddle board and floated around. The water is very clear and it was actually quite beautiful to look at the fish and even the seaweed looked beautiful. There are some deeper parts that you could definitely avoid touching any weeds. But just something to note if you plan on swimming. Also, we didn’t explore the entire lake so not sure what the far half is like. SUNRISES ARE GORGEOUS HERE! I would book this place just to watch the sunrise. And lots of wildlife. I would think kids would really enjoy it! Turtles, geese, tons of fish, loons. Again, overall highly recommend

Private cabin in the woods, conveniently located for exploring Sleeping Bear Dunes and Traverse City.

We had a wonderful stay. This house was well equipped in the kitchen, baths and bedrooms with quality, newer, matching pans/utensils, towels and bedding. Plenty of paper products as well. Lots of space for 7 adults, including a very comfortable living room (2nd on lower level) and beautiful deck with plenty of seating and even a Solo wood stove!

We had a wonderful stay at Richard's condominium! The condo is apart of a larger resort, Shanty Creek, and with the passes that were left for us to use, we were never bored! We explored the Lakeview Hotel and pool amenities there, the private beach, and the Shuss Mountain resort as well. This was especially nice for the 12 year old we had with us. There was a couple staying next to us (not under Richard's purview), who had loud dogs who would not stop barking but after messaging Richard, we heard them very rarely and then not at all, so we really appreciated the timely response we had from him and the action he took by informing the HOA for that condo. The little touches here and there were also really appreciated, like the fan/lightbulb fan charm cords so we knew which cord was for the light and which was for the fan. We plan on coming back for sure! Highly recommended place for people of all ages to enjoy.

Manistee is home away from home! Lovely place with a great location for beach access & amazing sunsets! Close to town & great little area to take the pups for walks. Bring spices & cooking oils. They only have limited spices as listed. Also, I maybe would bring a couple pans & pots if you plan on cooking more than a basic, simple meal. I love to cook so I usually bring my own knives & pans. Really great stay & I would highly recommend!

This was an amazing get away! i definitely recommend david and nicole's airbnb if you're looking in this area! they were very precise with location, recommendations, check in/out directions! we loved our stay!

This was a very nice place to stay! The area was quiet and the room was very clean and comfortable. if we are ever in the area again we will definitely be booking here !

A-Frame of Mind was perfect in every way! It was clean, roomy, beautifully decorated, and cozy! Everything we needed was available and stores were nearby for any items we didn't have. I wish I lived closer, and I would make this an annual visit. Thank you for a wonderful family vacation!

Katy’s place was already perfect, then we stepped off the patio and saw the VIEW!! We visited in the fall and it was magical.

My 4 kids, husband and I have been coming to Shanty creek resorts for over 10 years. This is the first time we stayed somewhere other than the resort hotels. We enjoyed we were able to bring our dog on this trip, we had a kitchenette, and we did more in the area because we had to drive ourselves. This gave us a chance to explore and save more money. By staying in a place more reasonable than the hotel and we were able to cook ourselves and didn't have the added expense of a dog sitter. 4girls sharing one bathroom worked out better than I thought. We really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you The Ramsey family

We love the family friendly atmosphere and the wooded environment. Perfect for our family.

Beautiful place. perfect for our get away. We enjoyed every second. Everything was as described

If you're looking for a peaceful escape with all the comforts of home, this cute little cottage is absolute perfection. Tucked away in a quiet rural setting, it’s the kind of place that immediately makes you feel welcome and at ease. Everything about it is homey—from the cute nautical theme to the thoughtfully stocked kitchen. The large deck is perfect for a cup of coffee with birds serenading, views of wildlife, and fresh air. The fire pit is perfect for roasting marshmallows, stargazing ( northern lights), or just relaxing with a glass of wine and good conversation Highly recommended for a restful, charming getaway.

Christine and Alan were great people. They answered all of our questions and gave us some good local tips to beachs etc. Their place is very peaceful and quiet. The space was very well equipped. I hope to be back there again.

great place to stay, very well appointed kitchen, family enjoyed it. we will be back.

Have stayed at the cozy cabin many times!!! One of our favorite places to stay! It is so peaceful. Love the wood burning stove on cold nights. Looking forward to our next stay with our pup. Hosts are wonderful!

Great location for access to Tippy Dam and Manistee National golf course. Very comfortable and clean. Especially loved the DVD collection and record player!

Every time I approach a rental I've reserved, I feel a bit anxious and skeptical: will it match the description? will I have to convince myself "it's fine"? will the pictures on the listing be several years old or will they be edited so much that reality looks quite different? You know the feelings. Jessica's place was EXACTLY what I expected based on pictures, description and reviews. Clean and open and thoughtfully appointed. Extra things like a well stocked kitchen including several spices (we didn't do any cooking but I know how nice it is not to have to pack or buy every little thing!) and hangers in the closets, extra blankets in the living room, games in the cupboard, plenty of towels. It was such a comfortable home that felt intentional for hosting. Highly recommend. Didn't disappoint in the least.

We loved this hidden little gem and just like the little gems we found around the Michigan and costal area. This place is super clean and has everything you would need. The hot tub, game room, lake close by and the fire pit is all a bonus. WE ALSO LOVE THE FACT THAT THIS PLACE IS DOG FRIENDLY!! Lots of great memories were made and thanks to this wonderful little cabin!
