Stayed during Spring Break. The area was covered in lots of snow and everything was still shut down for winter, but we just wanted to get away when the kids were off school. We stayed in the unit most of the time and it was just what we wanted. It was a bit cramped for the 6 of us, but we had a great time. We used the pool a lot. Only a 10 minute drive to the lookout at the top of the mountain behind Garden City, and Bear Lake Valley is gorgeous! Another 5 minutes and we were at the top of Logan Canyon, where we found a great place to sled and play in the snow. The people at the front desk were SO nice and helpful. We rented a movie and they hooked us up with hot chocolate and popcorn. The fitness center is small, but so grateful it was there. It was a great stay, and we look forward to staying again. 

Fun Family Getaway

Very convenient, great location, nice views. Effective check in and check out, spacious units. The only concern is recycling. We saw only two small bags in the unit for recycling and no recycling bins on a property.

Great Resort

Me and my family stayed in a 2-bedroom room located on the first floor/ground level floor. Our room could sleep up to 6 guests using the Murphy bed in the main room. No units were above ours. 

Overall very pleased with our stay. The beds were very comfortable and we’re actually considering buying the same mattress, it really was that comfortable. We had a king bed in our room and the second bedroom had 2 twin beds. 

Two bathrooms- one located inside the master bedroom, and one located next to the second bedroom, but no access to it from inside the bedroom. Both bathrooms had bathtub/shower combos. Two rolls of toilet paper per bathroom provided for our week stay. There were five pool towels provided located in the bathroom. A small shampoo/conditioner combo bottle was provided in each bathroom. A bar of facial soap and a bar of body soap was provided in each bathroom. We used those bar soaps for hand soap in the bathrooms and at the kitchen. We brought our own toiletries to use. Water got hot pretty fast (water heater located inside the condo).

Each garbage had two replacement trash bags inside. Under the sink there was a recycling bag we didn’t use. The dumpsters at the resort have a garbage dumpster and a recycling dumpster. 

The kitchen had mostly everything you’d need. 2 dishwashing packets were provided but I brought my own. Two paper towel rolls provided. There were 6 spice packs provided but there was no salt and pepper. The freezer has an ice maker. See the pictures in my review. The oven drawer contains a small cookie sheet, pizza pan, and a pizza slicer.

Two laundry soap packets were provided but I brought my own laundry soap. I did laundry everyday, sometimes multiple times a day when we did pool/lake stuff. Both washer/dryer were small so don’t expect to do regular sized loads.

I can’t comment on the outdoor pool as it was closed for the season, but the indoor pool was great. It goes as deep as 5 feet. The indoor kiddie pool is 2 feet deep. While we did not use the spa we noticed that other guests were able to turn the jets on themselves. There are bathrooms located in the pool area. 

There was a fire pit located between our building and the next, quiet hours start at 10pm. Bring your own wood. 

Also might be good to know that you may not have a great view of the lake from your room. There is a resort located right in front of Worldmark. I would guess you are probably able to see parts of the lake from any unit but not a completely unobstructed view because of buildings and trees. Don’t know if that matters to you but I thought I’d share. We also were ground level so that made it a little worse for view purposes.

There’s a gift shop at Worldmark that sells water shoes and individual swim diapers (S/M/L). If your kid is still in diapers it is required to wear a swim diaper in the pool. 

Cons:

-When I entered the condo for the first time there were about 6-8 flies hanging around the kitchen area/ceiling. Consider bringing fly trap tape and a fly swatter.

-It’s ridiculous that you have to pay for internet, and plans are based on the number of devices you want to connect. 2,5, and 8 device plans available. You set up the plan you want on your device in your room. No Ethernet available, so just WiFi. There should just be a flat rate per condo if you are going to charge at all. I strongly feel internet should be free as most places you go this day and age offer free internet with your stay. 

-No salt and pepper, even though a handful of other spices were provided. 

-When the dryer is finished it makes an extremely loud buzzer noise. No way to avoid it unless you open the dryer before it’s done. Heads up to families with napping kids or doing laundry at bedtime. 

-The layout of the condo makes sound echo from the main room into the bedrooms. So if some people go to bed early they’ll hear everything from the main room almost as if they were in the same room. 

-The dumpster was located pretty far away from our unit, but that is because we were in building 6. The other units are closer to dumpsters to throw your trash away. 

Overall a great stay. I would stay again if I’m back at bear lake. This review represents the specific condo we stayed in- so other condos on the property could be different.

Fun family stay

Loved our stay here for 2 nights.  Having the kitchen and washer and dryer was a great bonus.  Nice fireplace in the living room.  Staff was friendly and check in was a breeze.  We would definitely stay here again.

Large, comfortable, clean place to stay

We’ve stayed here many times with family. Once with 50+ people in the summer and other times with only 10 in the winter. It’s always great. There is a nice hot tub to warm up in when there is a couple feet of snow outside, and there is a pool (and a huge lake of course) to cool off in in the summer. The rooms are very nice and clean. They are very well taken care of. We will be staying here again!

Great place for vacation!

We always enjoy our stays here.  Great rooms with all the comforts of home.   Full kitchens and living rooms. Very close to the lake.  Great pool.  Close to restaurants.  Make sure you try a fresh yummy raspberry shake. 

Fun Lake trip

We were able to stay here multiple weeks.  The people who work here were very friendly and always made us feel welcome.  The location is very peaceful and relaxing.  It is away from bigger cities but that was what we were looking for.  They have a wonderful pool and fitness center.  Highly recommend this resort!

Overall great experience

Nice quite town with plenty of winter activities for the entire family.  Snowboarding is nearby, snowmobile rentals in town, snow tubing nearby, ice fishing in town, and much more.  My family and I had a great week here and are planning on coming back.

Winter Break at World Mark Bear Lake

This was a great place right by the lake.  I enjoyed my visit.  Pool time was an added plus.  I meet a few people from other areas.  Fun place to visit.  I enjoyed driving up the mountain to check out the mountain.  The views were fantastic.   This lake area is a hidden beauty.  Take a drive around the lake and check out all of the homes that are built around it.

Truly a hidden treasure

We arrived in late October and found that the city and surrounding attractions were mostly closed for the "season" ... so when selecting your week, I would select something earlier.  Secondly, the timeshare is beginning to show wear/tear on its furniture; .the appliances were in good shape, but WHITE, and the countertops were all formica.   So if you are accustomed to newer looking appliances and granite or quartz countertops, you may want to reconsider.
