"I love staying at Bear mountain. The cottages are sometimes disappointing depending on which unit you get. This time the temperature was cold at night and there are no controls to regulate it. The building is regulated by one thermostat which is only controlled the facility. Also the bathroom was ridiculously small. The door opened in and if the door was open there literally was no room to actually stand in the bathroom. Smaller than the bathroom in my camper."
