Bear Bottom Resort was originally built in 1959 by Mr. Eddie Bryant, then called The Holly Air Resort. The torch was passed to the Sutcliffe family of 9 led by Matt and Melisa. They built the now Bear Bottom Resort over the last 16 years. In June of 2024, they left a legacy in the wake of a new owner, Lindsay Barth. He will continue the tradition of the resort with an eye on future adventures.

The 58-acre resort features lakefront rental units, 155 RV sites, lakeside restaurant, 2 waterslides, swim up bar, air-conditioned bar, Tiki bar, outside deck to eat and relax on and a gift shop. There are boat and swim docks for guests use and a community boat ramp is available at end of cove.

Bear Bottom Resort owner is all about making memories with family and friends while sitting on a dock, in a pool or boat. Time together cannot be replaced by technology. Come make a new memory with us.
