Wonderful getaway!

My family of 5 stayed here for 2 nights. It had everything you could need and was such a comfortable home with a relaxing outside area! The host was great and you can tell they really just want you to have a great experience and enjoy your stay.

Early June stay

This cabin has a very cozy feel. It has been updated and has a new feel to it. The sauna and hot tub were great options and there is a very nice outdoor campfire area.

Absolutely perfect!

This is the most well appointed rental we have ever stayed in. I don’t think there was anything we could’ve thought of that wasn’t already there. The property was immaculate and matched the pictures and descriptions exactly! Honestly this place exceeded our expectations. We had a fabulous week and will most definitely be back!!

Great Girls Getaway!

What a perfect location for a low key, relaxing girls weekend! The Grumpy Bear was well stocked in every way! Super clean and comfortable. I could get used to a sauna every morning and a hot tub every evening!

We loved the grumpy bear cabin, it was the perfect size for my friends and I! Perfect location, and the host was incredibly communicative and accommodating. Hopefully we can stay again another time!

The cottage was adorable and had everything we needed and more. The hot tub and shuffle board table were over the top and we thoroughly enjoyed them!

Winter Getaway

This property is ideal! Kristi and Ryan are great at communicating. This chalet is top notch! What I appreciated the most is the attention to detail that they have put into this property. They have quality products throughout, from sheets and towels to toilet paper and paper towel. I honestly can not say enough good about this place. I would give it a 10 if I could! We will for sure be back next year!

Winter wooded chalet and great skiing location

Kristi and Ryan were wonderful hosts that have either thought of everything or responded to dreamer feedback. I don’t think you could pack more into a property while still maintaining a quality experience with thoughtful communication and excellent instructions for the many amenities! Thank you for sharing your cottage with hot tub, sauna and fire pit.
