Unforgettable Moments, Uncompromising Beauty
Imagine your family enjoying the many amenities at Bear Lake Reserve. A picnic on the Event & Performance Lawn. A family talent show at the amphitheater. Intimate dinners at the Lake Club. Watching your children or grandchildren learn to swim in the Lake Club pool. Learning how to tie flies, then perfecting your cast in some of the country's best fly-fishing streams. Passing on your love of the game to your child on our Nicklaus Design® masterpiece-The Summit Golf Course. Unwinding in the poolside hot tub.
