Many guests have said, " Your website photos don't do your resort justice, it's more beautiful in person." Joel and I thank you for all of your wonderful compliments about our website and our Resort; we really appreciate it.
 

 

We have found that life's busy pace has started to affect our guest's vacations. No longer can families go "up to the lake" for a relaxing 1 or 2 week vacation. More and more families and couples are looking for a long weekend or a short mid-week get-away. Now at Bear Paw we can work with your schedule with full week or short stays.


2012 Loon Blog

 March 27, 2012 Record early Ice-Out! Put the new Loon nest in on March 29th and Mama Loon arrived today; she is swimming back and forth along our shoreline. April 7th The Loon pair that had the triplets last year are together on the South end of the lake and their nest is in and ready. There is one Loon in the middle lake area and not sure about the Loons on the north end yet. Many Loons are still migrating and we are hoping that Papa arrives soon. He had an injured leg last summer so we don't know what the outcome will be this summer for our Loon pair. April 11th Papa arrived today but not sure if it our original one or not. April 14th They circled the nest this evening within 5 feet and appears that Papa has claimed it. All the Loons are back now and some extras. April 20th Mama & Papa were at the nest and close enough to board but didn't. They are guarding their area constantly against many other Loon intruders. April 21st They have visited their nest several times but haven't climb up yet. They did go from nest to shore to copulate so we should have eggs coming. Many intruder loons this spring and they are picking fights with all the resident pairs April 27th Mama was on the new nest the first we saw and we are so excited. When she left the nest I zoomed in with my lens and there is 1 egg!! Success!!!! April 29th Mama laid her 2nd egg tonight and now they are officially incubating. May 2nd  After some close up pics we have determined that Mama captured herself a new young stud of a hubby! She did great! He is very tentative with the nest and we think he is going to be a great Dad.  ~ stay tuned ~
