I want to start off by saying THIS HOUSE IS PERFECT! Our group had 3 couples and 3 kids and we had plenty of room. The futons in each room aloud the kids to stay with thier parents and the oldest one on the soft pull out bed. It really was perfect!! The kitchen was super nice. Living room had plenty of space to lounge around and enjoy a nice fire. I don't know if you are like me, but it took me I know 2 weeks to learn our Direct tv remote. Eric and Cindy have these awsome note cards throughout the house/ living room that tells you step by step how to run the tv/ stero ect... VERY NICE! We wasted no time trying to figure things out. Eric and Cindy have REALLY went the extra mile to make you feel at home in their home and we feel very blessed to have had the oppertunity to stay in there home and we will stay there again. I will reccomand their home to all of my family and friends and really would love to check it out in the summer! WE HAD A BLAST !

Everything You Need

Even with rain and fog dampening part of Christmas vacation, Bear Escape provided everything we needed to keep us comfortable and entertained—even without turning on either of the flat-screen TVs. The chili power and cumin we’d forgotten for our traditional tortilla soup? In the spice rack. In other words, everything you’d expect to find in a well-stocked family home was there. The central location kept the hikers happy, while the readers relaxed (or dozed) in cushy recliners. Even Barley, daughter’s languid pooch, amused herself. Wintergreen has plenty of activities, but with homes like this, you hardly need them.

We stayed here for the Tough Mudder Oct. 2011 and had a fantastic time. The house is beautifully decorated, clean and well appointed with everything you need for a great weekend. It is directly on the golf course and close to the resort with shuttle service. We would definately stay here again.

We totally enjoyed this house. It was well stocked with all the supplies you could possibly use (better than any location I have stayed at yet!) all the way down to napkins on the table. The movie library is incredible! I almost wished for a rainy day so we could stay in this very comfortable and cozy house just to watch movies! But we were able to golf both beautiful courses and fit in a challenging hike in one weekend! Everything you see in the ad is very accurate if not alittle understated, and I was impressed by how clean the house was (and I am not impressed all that easily!) We loved the location on Devil's Knob golf course and close to all the amenities of Wintergreen. I also very much appreciated that it was pet friendly, yet I could not detect that another pet had ever been there. Thank you for allowing us to use your beautiful and comfortable home!

Kudos to Eric and Cindy for their wonderful rental house at Wintergreen. We ended up spending more time in the house than anticipated due to the weather--snow and rain on October 2nd. But the house was so warm and cozy that it saved our weekend. The house was immaculate and everything worked! I wish I could say that about my house. I especially appreciated the quick return of the security deposit. I hope to return and highly recommend Bear Escape to anyone in any weather.

What can I say about this lovely home . . . it was great! We thoroughly enjoyed our week's stay - the owners are so friendly, super communicative, and have taken the time to include the little details that help so much. They included things like restaurant menus, helpful phone numbers, instructions on how to work electronic equipment, and supplies like paper towels, laundry soap, etc. The home is just beautiful, and we were more than comfortable there. We hope to return this winter!

I wouldly highly recommend this house. It was beautifully decorated with the top of the line appliances and huge bedrooms. The upstairs bedrooms had a king/queen beds; as well, as a futon which would make it very accomodating to families. They were also kind enough to allow us to bring our dog, Ellie, who is very much a part of us. She loved the beautiful walks including us. We also took advantage of the tennis courts. I would definitely come back!
