Lovely stay right next to the village!

I had a wonderful stay at Cozy Bear Retreat! The house was adorable and they had a welcome basket waiting for us when we walked in which was a great touch. It’s super convenient and nearby everything we wanted to do. Definitely reccomend!

Cozy little place

Highly recommend this cozy little home. It was clean and updated with a fun back yard. We sat at the fire pit. We went in the hot tub. We grilled some rib eyes. It was a wonderful stay.

Family friendly home

Great experience. The place seemed like it was our own. Came ready to play in. Only 2 grievances: the ppl manning desk at check in spot were cranky; the oven wasn’t strong enough to bake a pizza. Otherwise 5 stars.

Wonderful!

We had the best time here! House was so cute, cozy, and super clean! Beds were sooo comfortable and sheets, pillows, and duvet was so plush and soft, was definitely upscale hotel quality! House had everything we needed, fully stocked with all you can ask for in a rental! The backyard was so cute with a lit Christmas tree and hot tub. Although we did not use the hot tub as it was snowing most of our stay and too cold to be outside. But was so nice to look outside and see the cute decorated tree that sparkled blue lights! All the smart tvs in each room worked great with no issues with internet. The fireplace was so cute and super easy to light as we have a similar gas one at home. The bathroom was super clean, cute, and remodeled. The best thing about the place was the island in the kitchen where we enjoyed sitting around for breakfast and coffee! Location was so convenient super close to the Village, all the restaurants, and a short drive to Snow Summit where we enjoyed most of the day. If the owners ever decide to sell the place, I’d want to buy it as it is perfect for a cute little vacation home! We will definitely stay here again and will book again for end of February next month!
