Step through the custom, handcrafted bear door and into a warm, bear-themed cabin full of character and mountain charm. Beautiful hardwood floors, soaring cathedral ceilings, and thoughtfully curated decor create a welcoming atmosphere from the moment you arrive.


The main-level living room features a stunning stone fireplace and Smart TV, creating the perfect spot to curl up and unwind after a day of exploring the mountains.


BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS


Three bedrooms, each on its own floor with a private bathroom, ensure privacy and comfort for everyone. The main-floor master offers a king bed with direct access to the wraparound deck. Upstairs, a queen bedroom pairs with a jetted tub—perfect for unwinding. The basement bedroom features a twin bed with a pullout trundle, ideal for children, and a walk-in tiled shower. A sleeper sofa in the game room provides additional sleeping flexibility for larger groups, bringing your total to 5 beds and accommodating up to 8-10 guests comfortably.


KITCHEN & DINING

The fully equipped kitchen is a standout, complete with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a breakfast bar seating four. Coffee and tea are stocked and waiting. Everything you need for casual family meals or creative cooking is here: dishes, silverware, cooking basics, a dishwasher, microwave, oven, hot water kettle, toaster, baking sheets, blender, and rice maker make meal prep and cleanup effortless.

GAME ROOM & INDOOR ENTERTAINMENT

The game room is a social hub where hours disappear: pool table, foosball, dartboard, life-size games, board games, and a 60-inch Smart TV keep families and friend groups entertained. The cabin also features comfortable seating throughout, books and reading material, a dedicated workspace with WiFi (great for remote work), washer and dryer with detergent provided, and air conditioning and heating for year-round comfort.

OUTDOOR LIVING

The private covered wraparound deck is where the real magic happens. Rocking chairs, comfortable seating, a gas grill, and your own private hot tub nestle beneath the trees. Sink into the hot tub at sunrise with a cup of coffee, or unwind under the stars after dinner. The private backyard features a fire pit for gathering, a hammock for daydreaming, and an outdoor dining area. Deer often wander in at dusk—that quiet becomes the real luxury.

PET WELCOME

Up to 2 well-behaved dogs are welcome to join your stay. All paved roads lead to the cabin, making arrival easy for any vehicle.
