Anyone have any idea what happened to bear chasers ? I hear it is being re-built ?????

Think they had a fire

It blew up and burned down. When I was up there in August, the word on rebuilding was no. It's a shame, they are good people.

We stayed there last year about 3 weeks before they blew up...awesome place. We have a cabin in butternutt and make the treck over there one day and saw them rebuilding something, dont know for sure if its the bar or what?

I'm sorry to hear about them as I loved thier food. Does anyone remember the name of the lake they were on (near)?

Island Lake. Sure would love to see them rebuild.

When I was at our place over Thanksgiving, I heard the owner sold the lot the bar was on & the buyer was going to build a new bar. I think they said he was doing all the work himself, so it was slow going. Previous owner still lives next door.
