Have you explored the Elk View Park trail that extends into Aspen Park? It’s another great spot to catch a glimpse of Gaylord’s elk! 🦌

🌲 Our First Airbnb Reviews Are Coming In! 🥹⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We’re so excited to share that we’re starting to receive our very first Airbnb ratings and reviews after welcoming our first few guests to CK’s Bear Lake Retreat and we couldn’t be happier! ❤️

We’ve put so much thought, care, time, and hard work into creating a space that feels comfortable, welcoming, and like the perfect Up North getaway. From the big projects to all the little details, we’ve tried to think about what we would want when staying somewhere, and then make it even better.
Seeing our first guests walk through the doors, enjoy the space, explore the area, and then take the time to leave such wonderful feedback means more to us than we can put into words. 🥰

We chose this area because we love what it has to offer, the lakes, rivers, trails, woods, wildlife, outdoor adventures, and that peaceful Up North feeling. Now, getting to see other people enjoy the place we created in an area we love so much makes all the hard work completely worth it.
This is just the beginning, and we’re incredibly excited for all the memories that will be made at CK’s Bear Lake Retreat! 🌲🏡❤️
Thank you to everyone who has supported us, shared our posts, cheered us on, and especially to our first guests for trusting us with your getaway!!
We can’t wait to welcome many more of you! 🐻🌲

Yes!! 🥳 It’s not too early to get your snowmobile trips on the calendar. Ride north, south, east or west right from the door of our retreat and skip the beat up trails near the bigger towns!

To our northwest about 45 min from our retreat, take in the views from the Boyne Mountain Sky Bridge or even start your day with yoga on the bridge! Northern Michigan is truly a special place!!
