We LOVED this cabin. It was very clean and literally a home away from home. The beds were super comfy too. The owners were very responsive to any questions!! The only thing that would have made our vacation better was to see bears lol.

Nice cabin

We enjoyed staying here, and our daughter (8) really liked the hot tub! Didn't get lucky enough to see the bears, but enjoyed the location and accommodations. My wife wasn't a fan of the drive up, but after a few times you start to find your way!

Book This Cabin

We loved the Christmas Bear cabin. Cabin is exactly as described and pictures are exactly how it appears in person. Guy was very responsive to our questions. The mountain is steep in some areas. The views are beautiful and you’re close to the city. We loved it!
