We LOVED our stay at Bear Cub Cabin! The cabin was immaculately clean (and I'm picky about cleanliness) - you would never guess this cabin was pet friendly. It was cozy, decorated well, new, and bright. The kitchen was well equipped. The beds were SO comfortable, the blankets extra soft, and heat/AC could be adjusted in each room so all of our temperature preferences were met. My kids loved the upstairs den (and are 11 and 13 but this spot would be even more fun for younger aged kids). The outdoor firepit appears new and has a gorgeous view of the lake. The hot tub was also overlooking the water and we all enjoyed it. The dock looked so fun and was well equipped for summer fun with kayaks - we can't wait to return to use in the summer. It was honestly perfect for our family of four (plus dog). As the other reviews mention, Charity - the owner - was so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make our stay extra comfortable (leaving out s'mores supplies for us, cleaning and leaving warm blankets for us for to use around the firepit because she knew it would be cold, providing reccomendations for nearby hikes to do with our puppy). Wifi worked perfectly in the cabin. We watched family movies each night on the tv. We give this cabin our highest recommendation!

The Bear Cub Cabin was just PERFECT! Located in a quiet section of the lake, the cabin is tastefully furnished, very clean, and plenty of room. The host is very responsive, provided everything you need and even included all the fixings for S'mores at the fire pit. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again.

Great time at the cabin!

We had an excellent time Bear Cub as a family of 4. I was so impressed with how CLEAN it was and I am so picky about that. It smelled truly clean and not a speck of dirt or dust. The grounds are maintained so it was easy to access and walk the dog. We had a blast on the lake and love the area. It is very rural so be prepared! The kids loved playing in the loft but did end up sleeping in the primary (room with a door that shut) and mom and dad got relegated to the smaller bed but still everyone slept well! We appreciated the s’mores kit there too because we assumed it would be too hot for a fire… it was just right for a quick smore party! Charity was great and easy to work with!

Awesome stay

The property was awesome and right on the lake. They have made awesome upgrades like adding the hotub and extendinf the patio outback for it. You have access to firewood for smores which is a major plus. My family and friends loved using the kayaks provided.

Beautiful Location

This property is so cute with the best view of the lake! Love the dock and enjoyed laying out in the lounge chairs and having the kayak and paddle board to use. The cabin is small but spent our time outside. Cabin very clean and welcoming! Host was amazing at communicating.
Beautiful sunset from the dock.

Beautiful and comfortable lakeside retreat

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The property is in a great location with gorgeous views and easy lake access. The house was clean, comfortable, and very cozy. The hot tub was fantastic and perfect for cold weather, although I would definitely recommend for summer as well. Our host was very communicative and offered great recommendations for where to go locally. I definitely plan to return and stay for longer!
