Stephanie was absolutely amazing!

We enjoyed and loved our stay at the Bears Den! Our favorite was that Stephanie went out of her way to help us in any way possible to make our stay top notch! She goes above and beyond to take care of her guest! We will be using any cabin she is apart of for all our future vacations!

Bear Den was super clean and extremely homey. Overall we enjoyed our stay at the Bear Den!

Overall the cabin itself was super nice and clean, it definitely fulfilled our expectations! The drive to the cabin was not what we exapected, it was hectic and confusing! The cabin was also quite a ways from town.

Summer Vacation

Nice, quiet, cabin in the mountains without all the luxury and flair like Wi-Fi allows for a peaceful escape from the everyday hustle and bustle.

As Good as Advertised

We enjoyed our stay at Bear Den Cabin. In was a remote cabin in the woods in the mountains. Very secluded and private. We saw some wild life there, but not a bear. Of course we didn’t figure we we see a bear. If you are looking for a secluded mountain cabin, I recommend this one! I would stay there again.

Much better options available

Middle of nowhere, awful narrow windy roads. No WiFi. No one warned us of the car show the day we checked in, we waited in traffic for three and a half hours to go 3 miles to get to the office. No bureaus had to live out of a suitcase.

High on the mountain

This is a very cute little cabin in the mountain. In the mountain is important because the description notes the drive up but you won't want to drive a 4 cylinder. It's steep. We didn't spend much time at the cabin but the time we did spend was in the hot tub. The water was cold but that was kind of nice for this time of year. The only thing I would change is the check in process. Service is spotty in the mountains but you have to wait until after check in for them to email you a code. This is a problem when your email won't work. If you are a skeptic like I tend to be, it also makes you uneasy driving across the country without the certainty of knowing you definitely have a place to stay. I understand it's their policy but I use vrbo often and this is the first place that has done this. There is plenty to do in the area. All together we really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back soon.

Get away from it all

The cabin was tucked away in the woods, very peaceful. Saw a bear while there. Overall, nice place to get away from the daily grind and enjoy some nature.

Good stay

It was a great cabin, we just went at the wrong time. Snow storm came in and knocked out the power and we were sick here for a couple days, but the managers were always checking on us and making sure we were okay. Great place to stay would recommend it to anyone.

Cozy

We enjoyed our stay. I do with there qas a better view or maybe I should have researched a little better. It just seemed like we were in a hole. I feel you could invest in a better shower head and maybe cleaner looking towels. It's the little things that matter sometimes. But over we enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful Rustic and Secluded!!

We enjoyed the quiet seclusion that the property offered!! If you are looking for an amazing place to have privacy and only the sounds of nature this is your place! We would definitely stay here again!! My kids loved the "Bear Den" and begged to stay longer!! The only complaint I can come up with was there wasn't enough seating in the living area but we weren't "home" alot because all of the fun things to do around the area! Check in was easy! It is close to area attractions everything was within 30 minutes (only due to traffic)! It was the perfect place for our mini vacation!! It reminded me of my grandparents cabin it is very rustic but that's what we were looking for! We will be renting from them again in the future!
