Hot Tub + Fire Pit + King Bed + River - Cozy Cabin
Escape to a cabin where nature and design breathe as one. The Cabin at Bear River is more than a place to stay, it’s a retreat where design brings calm and clarity.
Lose track of time as you sink into the hot tub beneath the stars. Share a glass of wine by the glow of the Nordic fireplace, or wake slowly with soft light spilling through floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the forest like art. Here, every season tells its own story, and every moment feels like it belongs to you.
Your luxury mountain hideaway in the western Maine woods is calling.
At The Cabin at Bear River, you’ll find a Japandi-inspired retreat on 3.5 private acres, just minutes from Sunday River, Bethel, and Grafton Notch. Here, luxury meets nature - perfect for couples, families, or close friends ready to relax, reconnect, and recharge. Off-peak Nacs EV Charger on-site available for guests use, to charge up when traveling from long distances. Please note we do not provide a converter for specific vehicles.
From the moment you step inside, you’ll be wrapped in warmth. Radiant heated floors welcome your feet, limewashed walls set a calming tone, and floor-to-ceiling windows frame the evergreens outside. Sink into the plush king-size bed, cue up your favorite playlist on the Marshall speaker, or curl up by the Nordic fireplace as snowflakes drift past the glass.
Your fully stocked kitchen is made for slow mornings and home-cooked meals, with high-end touches like a Moccamaster coffee maker, KitchenAid stand mixer, and fondue pot. After a day of skiing or hiking, let the spa-like bathroom spoil you with a heated towel bar, rainfall shower, and a bidet with a warm seat. Hosting extra guests? The queen pull-out sofa offers memory foam comfort in the living room.
Step outside to a 252 sq. ft. deck, nearly half the size of the cabin, where you can sip coffee in the morning sun or dine under a canopy of stars. Melt into the six-person hot tub, then gather around the firepit, tucked under string lights and surrounded by Adirondack and hanging egg chairs. Please note, outdoor amenities are not accessible or maintained for winter-season access.
Take a private 5–10 minute walk along your own wooded trail to the Bear River. Breathe in the crisp air, listen to the water’s flow, and enjoy a picnic at the secluded riverside table.
Whether you spend your days chasing powder at Sunday River, exploring Grafton Notch, or simply slowing down, this is your place to unwind in style - every season, every visit.
We are pet friendly, but we kindly ask that all pets are kept off of furniture and kenneled when left on property alone. We do charge a $150 pet fee that is automatically added when you add a pet to your booking. Please make sure to do this during booking to prevent unexpected fees post-booking.

Other things to note The cabin sits just off Route 26 for easy year-round access. This means you will likely hear road noise during the day, mostly when the windows are open or your outside. However, it’s still incredibly quiet at night, with the occasional car driving down route 26. While completely private and tucked into nature, please note this is not a secluded cabin tucked deep away in the woods where you will not hear a peep of sound - just a good piece of information for you to know before booking so your expectations are set! :)
While the cabin is designed for two, we happily welcome up to four guests. Please note that indoor dining is set up for two, with plenty of outdoor seating for four during spring, summer, and fall.
Please note we can never guarantee an amenity (such as the hot tub) is available during your stay. We do not issue refunds for amenities that are not working properly for factors beyond our control.
