Unlike those booked through the resort, this is stocked with supplies and amenities you would hope for in a luxury unit! More than you can ask for. Owner has extra air beds, luxury towels, kitchen extras, even cozy throws! It feels more like home than a rental. Owner is absolutely wonderful. You won't be disappointed! - 5 of 5 stars Reviewed for a stay in March 2017 “Great people space! Room for 10-12 comfortably” This condo is the best we've used at grand bear. Very spacious and comfortable. Will definitely rent there again! - 5 of 5 stars Reviewed for a stay in November 2016 “Great place to stay for a beautiful fall weekend” This cabin is a great place to stay. We all came in for a class reunion in October. The size of the cabin was perfect for all of us .....enough beds and bathrooms. Lori (the owner) was so easy to work - 5 of 5 stars Reviewed ago for a stay in October 2016 "Gorgeous Cabin in Starved Rock Area" This gorgeous cabin has all the amenities of home!
