A cozy and lovingly-decorated cottage nestled among mature trees and moss-covered rocks, creating a magical feeling. The firepit was such a nice space. Everything felt like a home away from home. The host was super nice and made everything easy, secure, and comfortable. Would definitely consider for future stays .

The weather didn’t cooperate, however, your place is super awesome! Our purpose was to take my niece to see the mountains. Being from the south, she was in awe of the wildlife here. We played games indoors and talked late into the night. Your place was a perfect cozy setting to create a wonderful memory bonding. I will definitely be back with my husband, Thank you so much!

Close to lake

House was quiet nice little piece of property road was rough but there were big rain storms before we arrived. Houses around the property vacant very run down. Overall nice little house to hang out have a fire and be with a couple close friends. We mostly were on the lake fishing in our boat

Family trip

Contacting Steve is easy, the only thing I will suggest is that they need to get new mattresses (my back still hurt from that), and they need to get those mice’s out of the house, other than that is a nice place to stay.

Cozy layover

My wife and I stayed here for 1 night. We didn’t get to fully enjoy the place because of having limited time. However, the time that we did have there was very enjoyable. The house was very nice, quaint, cozy, and comfortable. Steve was very accommodating with enabling us to check in early. We would definitely stay here again.

Our Stay at Bear Den

We enjoyed our 5 days at the Bear Den. It was very relaxing, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed using the fire pit and the grill outdoors as well. A true pleasure of the location was being surrounded by birds and bird song during out stay.
