We enjoyed our stay here. The views from the balconies are gorgeous. The hot tub was a big hit. Definitely only stay here if stairs are not an obstacle for you. The location of the cabin was convenient. Only about 10-12 minutes from the man strip.

Beautiful cabin with a great location. About 5 miles from the main attractions so you get some of the peaceful serenity of the mountains while maintaining easy access to anything you want or need. I was unaware that this is a duplex style split/shared building until I arrived but it was not really an issue for us. Just be aware if your main goal is privacy this might not be the one.

Bear Up The Creek is a womderful cabin. The cabin was clean, well stocked for everything we needed for our stay. Not far from town but far enough that you don't hear the hustle and bustle and see all the city lights. Beds were comfortable, even the main floor pull-out bed was comfortable for my 73 year old father. The views from the back deck were truly amazing with a beautiful waterfall. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others as well.
