About this house rental
Being by the lake produces a feeling of relaxation and you can sense it pretty easily in this easy going place called Two Rivers, and especially right here at the Smiling Bear Cabin. There are many nearby hiking and XCSki/Showshoeing trails including ice age trail segments, and wonderful beach and picnicking spots. Staying at the Smiling Bear puts you at the heart of everything available in the area and gives you a nice place to call home and make great family memories.
Our place sits on 1/3 acre, across the road from Lake Michigan and the Mariner's Trail, which runs along the coastline. The way our home is angled, you can see the lake from much of the yard and just about every room of the house. We have Swings, Volleyball, Croquet, Badminton, & Sidewalk Chalk!

We were a group of seven women who are in a book club together and for this month's meeting we decided to have a girls weekend on Lake Michigan! The cabin was easy to find, access and we all had our own space. Towels were fluffy and there were plenty of supplies for what we needed. Kitchen was clean and we utilized the oven and coffee maker for breakfast and the table was perfect for our group to play games and eat. We did use Outburst from the shelf and had a blast. We also played the headline game and had fun as well; thank you for having extra games! Water was hot for all of our showers and the water pressure was great. We were right off of Lake Michigan and the views were wonderful. We went into both Two Rivers and Manitowoc and enjoyed the restaurants, beaches, bookshops and other local businesses. Would recommend and would visit again!

Great location with lake views and close to walking/bike path. We enjoyed our relaxing stay spending every day by the lake and exploring many good nearby restaurants. Although the house was too big for the two of us it was cozy, relaxing and clean. Thanks to our host and hope to return soon!

The home worked out great for our family to enjoy the TNF Packers game (except for the game result). Only 45 minutes from GB and we were able to go back the next day to enjoy the HOF. We would stay again.

We have rented this house every summer for about 10 years now. The guys love salmon and trout fishing on Lake Michigan and the girls love Neshotah Beach. Great place to spend time with family and friends around the campfire. The host is great and is very quick to respond to any problem at all. Will definitely book next year!

We had a wonderful stay with family and friends to celebrate Thanksgiving 2022- and this property was the perfect place for it. Every morning we enjoyed the sunrises over the lake. We enjoyed the sites in Two Rivers and Manitowoc and spent most days at the house enjoying good food and games. A very relaxing week indeed!

The house was very nice and accessible. There were many things to do around the property. You can make your own food or go to any number of restaurants.

While we did not chose this house for it's proximity to the lake, the views were a nice bonus. The home was just as described; it was clean, had plenty of comfortable beds, multiple bathrooms, and a nice working kitchen. I would definitely stay again and would look for other properties from this owner as well.

4 family's totaling 12 stayed very easy in this house. We got up walked across the street to see the sunrise. One of the best though out rentals we've stayed at. We utilized the firepit outside as well.

Our family enjoyed this house immensely. With its 4 bedrooms, it fit our extended family of 8. It was close to Two Rivers, close to Manitowac. The deck was so nice for sitting and looking out over Lake Michigan.

Summer Stay
Our host was very responsive and quick to accommodate our needs. She sweetly provided a highchair when we realized that the home didn’t have one…we really appreciated that! The home was clean and had so many fun things for our families to do outside. She has thought of so many things a family might need when staying there. Thanks much!

Rosalee is a great host. We had no issues that were a concern to me. The home is as advertised. And we would stay here again if ever in Trivers. (Two Rivers) It is a short distance to anywhere you want to go. Groceries, beach, zoo we’re all close by. Fires at the pit. Swings for the kids. Gas grille and a big deck to gather on. Thanks Rosalee!

A great place for a group to get together
The only reason I rated it a 3/5 stars on location is because while we were opening Christmas presents we saw someone get arrested outside (like 8 cop cars were there)
BUT that is not the property owners fault lol
They had the place decorated for Christmas and it was very homey, very spacious

the grass could have been cut. I liked the fire pit but grass was very long

Family time
The house worked well for a family vacation- adult children and grandchildren with plenty of bedrooms, great backyard and fire pit ( with firewood for sale across the street). Walked the trail that goes along the lake every day.
