Bear’s Den

We had a great time with family coming and going. The property was advertised for 10 th have beds, there was only room for 8. Only 8 towels were available.the bottom room had a individual air unit. It was full of water and when trying to empty it, it spilled all over the floor. The dish washer was not empty and there was no internet.

The cabin layout is pretty cool and convenient. The 4th room offers privacy for older kids or a separate family that may be joining you.I recommend a four wheel drive vehicle, especially if it rains. And the sheets looked like a dog had just rolled all over them. Other than having to clean the cabin ourselves, it was a good stay.

Very well maintained cabin. Lots of room for family and friends.The only problem we had was with the fire pit. The fire wood was wet. You can’t store fire wood on the ground without a cover. Please store the fire wood under the porch near the hot tub! It was truly disappointing for me and my family!
