The Space:
As you come into Buettner Park, there is a feeling of entering your private getaway. There are many small cabins in the neighborhood, but also many old growth trees, lawns, and small roads. Brown Bear Lodge is easily accessible from the main road and is one of the first homes in the neighborhood. There is a private parking area and small yard that is fenced. This is great for your furry friends to have a place to themselves.
Walk in the cabin and there is an open dining area and livingroom with a gas fireplace for cozy winter nights. There are two futon beds with bedding provided for guests.
The kitchen is equipped with all your essentials for making meals during your stay. We also provide coffee for you so you can wake up ready to go! With this being an older, smaller kitchen space, there is no dishwasher.
Off of the livingroom is your first bedroom with a full bathroom. There is a comfortable full bed and dresser for your essentials. The closet has the bedding for the livingroom futons as well.
Off of the first bedroom is the hot tub room. Enjoy a soak in this three person hot tub and dont fret about the wintery weather outside! All your towels for the home are stored in this room and there is also a dryer for refreshing those towels during your stay. There is no washer, only the dryer. There is also ironing supplies for your use.
Through the hot tub room is the second bedroom with two beds. This room has nice views of the back lawns where you will frequently see deer and wildlife.
Each bathroom is a full bathroom with bathtub shower combos. The orginal cast iron bath tubs are a little larger than standard, making it great for baths! Each bathroom is stocked for your stay including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, and toilet paper.
The interior layout resembles an alley style home where you go through one room to get to the next. The two bedrooms are adjoinging the hot tub room. You must walk through one bedroom to the hot tub room, then to the second bedroom. Being an older building the ceilings are lower than standard height.

Disliked: Amenities
This is a very dated property. since we went up over valentine's day, the staff left a box of chocolates for us which was a nice touch. uneven floors and bathroom fixtures that are very difficult to shot off and a shower head that doesn't move. Only half of the hot tub worked and there is only one jet setting. Electric baseboard heaters are very loud at night. Also, the hot tub is outside the main bedroom and goes off all night. Lots of room and plenty of towels and bedding essentials, but no instruction on where to put the used bedding before we left. No forced air for heat. Living room has a small gas fireplace and there was a space heater in another bedroom. overall it was kinda meh. would be a good place for a bunch of skiers just looking for a place to sleep, but for a romantic valentine's weekend getaway, this isn't the place. probably won't be back.
The coffee maker didn't work. The washer didn't work. The heating barely worked. Interior doors didn't lock
