Family Reunion 2024

This is a fabulous property and the best stocked with anything one might need that we’ve ever stayed in. Very roomy-nice beds and comfortable bedding. The loft was superb! The grandchildren spent endless hours playing up there. Televisions in every room! Spectacular! The view is unparalleled. We would stay here again for sure!

Family reunion

All in all it was a very pleasant stay and the property was nice because there was a nice yard for paying games. The house was clean and very livable. Our only complaint is that we had to wash the towels and stay there waiting for them to dry. Everyone needed to leave. We felt that our payment for using the cabin shouldn't include washing and drying!

Great memories were made with my family at Mountain Shores Lodge!

Our whole family of 19 people loved our stay. So many wonderful memories were made by all. The view of the lake and mountains from the porch were incredible! Plenty of room for all of us. The short walk to the lake was great as we took turns on the wave runners we rented for a day. The kitchen was very well stocked with supplies which made is very convenient. The large kitchen table is beautiful! The Hot tub was a big hit. Having the garage to store our things was very helpful. Thank you for having the washer & dryer for our convenience and 2 refrigerators. Sharie was a fantastic host and responded to any questions or needs we had. Highly recommend staying at Mountain Shores Lodge!

Perfect vacation

Our big group aged anywhere from 8mo to adults had the best time here. Was such a great place to come relax after a long day in Yellowstone/grand Teton. Sharie is awesome and went above and beyond to help us with whatever we needed! We absolutely would stay here again. Thank you!

It was absolutely beautiful, comfortable, and scenic. The kitchen is well stocked with all amenities. Our kids and grandkids had a blast.

Wonderful stay in this beautiful home

This home was very beautiful and spacious. The location was awesome with the view of the lake. The amenities were ample, kids enjoyed the playroom and dormitory where kids can stay together. There is a hot tub and a camp fire outside the home. The garage was also huge with lot of chairs and a grill. The communication from the property manager was also on time and the instructions were clear. The responses were also quick in case if you had a question. Overall it's a beautiful big house that will make your vacation a memorable one.
