Welcome to The Heritage at Bear Lake

Come join us in Paris… Idaho! Have your next event, vacation, family reunion, or youth conference in our historic buildings. Originally built in 1918, the Paris Lumber Company supplied lumber and supplies and the Granary (now Bear Lake Paris Inn) provided grain. Both buildings maintain a rustic feel and the nostalgia of a bygone era yet have been thoroughly updated and remodeled to provide all of the modern conveniences.

Our facilities are in Paris, Idaho surrounded by picturesque mountains and are located just minutes from beautiful Bear Lake, the Caribbean of the Rockies. You’ll find that Bear Lake Valley is a wonderful place to gather. The historic town of Paris includes the famous Paris Tabernacle, Paris Museum, Paris Canyon, and ice caves. Within a short stroll along Main Street, you’ll find an ice cream shop, an art gallery, parks, a donut shop, and historic buildings.

The Paris Lumber Company sleeps 39 adults and Bear Lake Paris Inn sleeps 44 adults. They can be rented together or separately. Together, they can accommodate 83 adult guests and 8 toddlers. When available, four private apartments can be rented to accommodate 19 additional adults, bringing the grand total to 102 adults. Each of the two main buildings has a large, fully equipped kitchen and dining room, as well as a spacious private grassy area with covered pavilions for outdoor meals and recreation.

Four apartments can be rented on their own or in addition to the main buildings. Each one includes a private bathroom with shower; three of the apartments include a kitchenette.

The Gathering Place is a standalone building adjacent to the Bear Lake Paris Inn available to rent separately for guests or groups interested in an event or meeting space. It has the capacity for 75 people. It is a great setting for group events, like movies, talent nights, firesides, and devotionals. It features high ceilings, comfortable seating, a high-quality 88-key electric piano, and historic items.

We currently have four private apartments which are available to rent in conjunction with the larger buildings or on their own. The apartments are located on the west side of the Bear Lake Paris Inn and vary in size and amenities. Each apartment has a private entrance and bathroom, and all but one has either a kitchen or kitchenette. The apartments are great for those looking for a little more privacy or for smaller families or groups.

We loved stating here with our family. We have a very large family about 50 people and we had space to sleep and move around. The kitchen was stocked with basics which was nice.

Steven

This is a great spot to stay right on Main St. in Paris. We loved our stay and will be back in the future!

Katheryn

We really enjoyed this place for our Girl's camp. When the girls arrived, squeals of happiness were heard everywhere as they went to pick their sleeping areas. This place allowed privacy and togetherness for all who attended. We were very excited to have grass that would allow for water activities and the inside for the whole group for workshops.

Everything was just the way we expected!

Our group of 35 fit nicely into the Bear Lake Paris Inn property. There were 10 bedrooms, with the bed configurations as shown online. The bathrooms were better than anticipated–there are two bathrooms on the main floor that are like public restrooms, with toilet stalls separate from the sink area. One is marked Mens and one Womens so those are more useful than just single occupant bathrooms. They also include shower stalls, one in each bathroom. The number of tables was great for our large group. We did many crafts for the little ones at the tables. Overall great!
