Bear’s Lair Cabin, Willow Cove, Bass Lake

Welcome to the Bear’s Lair, a cozy, rustic cabin in the Sierras near Yosemite. The cabin is located in the heart of Bass Lake, within walking distance to the charming small town and the lake. We have a large deck to enjoy warm summer evenings, BBQs, or just relaxing amid the surrounding pine trees. There is space to park cars and a boat trailer, but keep in mind the roads in Willow Cove are narrow and winding. We have a nearby dock slip to park a boat or jet ski.

The space
The cabin has a fully stocked kitchen and comfortable family room with a large stone fireplace. There are three bedrooms. The Bunk Room has a double bed, trundle bed, and its own private entrance leading to the deck. The second bedroom (we call it the Apple Room) has a twin over full bunk bed and a double bed. The third bedroom has a comfortable king sized bed. We recently renovated the two bathrooms and kitchen, blending modern updates with the original, rustic elements, in order to preserve the authentic old-time cabin experience.

Guest access
Guests have access to the entire property, including the large deck and space to park cars and a boat trailer. We have keyless entry to make your arrival easy and seamless.

Other things to note
We hope you enjoy the cabin, where the rules are short and sweet. No schedules. No deadlines. No dress code. We keep it simple. Take time to rest, relax and renew. Breathe deep. Make s’mores and spend time enjoying the great outdoors. It’s the perfect time to hike and explore.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
This smoke-free vacation home features games, a playground, and water skiing nearby.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

This stay was fantastic. The dock to swim off of was awesome. We even saw a bear very near our house. Kind of scary but still awesome. Only issue wasn’t able to use washer dryer didn’t know about the key. We asked the question but didn’t get an answer so we just put towels out on the deck . Definitely will go again. I’d

We had a great time at the Bear's Lair Cabin! It's was centrally located making day trips to Yosemite and the Mariposa area easy. It had everything we needed and more. The bathrooms were updated, the bedrooms clean and comfortable, and the living area was a cozy cabin environment. We appreciated the little things like laundry detergent, several games, beach towels, and a basket of snacks. We would definitely stay again!

Great place with amenities
Property filled all our needs and provided more than adequate amenities, for example shampoo, conditioner and variety of seasonings. Our recommendation for the future is more lighting on the patio, especially string lighting for a festive vibe, a gas barbecue, and night lights in bedrooms and bathrooms because the rooms are so dark.

Wonderful First Stay
The property was perfect. It had everything we needed, was clean and comfortable. The owners are extremely accommodating and always got back to me quickly. The next time I go I will bring small beach/dock chairs and a small EZ up for down by the lake which is a very short walk from the cabin. We had lake rafts that we brought and that was fun too. You won’t be disappointed!

Relaxing week in Bass Lake
My husband and I stayed for a week with another couple. We had so much fun. The house was perfect and exactly as described. We kept our boat at the dock provided and it was a short walk to the lake each day. The House is located right in the center of everything, with the Pines Resort just a few minutes away. The beds were extremely comfortable, the house was well stocked with everything you could possibly need and our favorite part was sitting out on the deck each evening and morning.

Blair’s Lair Bliss
Bear’s Lair at Bass Lake was the ideal base camp for our family getaway. The perfectly charming cabin was well appointed with everything we could need, immaculate, and so cozy. We loved that it was walking distance to their dock, lake water sports, and local trails, like Angel Falls. We split our time between the lake and Yosemite, which was just 30 miles away. For such a quaint cabin, there was plenty of room for everyone to carve out their own areas and still feel homey in the central living area. Kitchen was spacious, two bathrooms were perfect for our group. We certainly utilized the back porch and loved the convenience of the set-aside laundry room. We look forward to visiting again.
