We really enjoyed our stay here! The house has so much character, and we loved all of the décor. It felt warm, comfortable, and like a place someone truly cares about rather than just another vacation rental.The location was perfect for visiting Santa's Village and exploring the surrounding area. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and it was nice to see amenities like really nice looking basketball courts, a gazebo that hosts outdoor concerts, and a variety of local restaurants, bars, and cafés all within about a 5 to 10 minute walk. The host was fantastic and always quick to respond whenever we had a question. We were also amazed at how well stocked the house was. It had just about everything we could have needed, more than any vacation rental we've stayed in before.We had a great time and would absolutely stay here again. We'd definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the Bethlehem area.

Loved our stay at Bear Crossing! And yes, we even saw a bear in the backyard! The house was perfect. A lot of room with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 sitting areas and more. We've stayed at a lot of VRBOs and this was the best stocked kitchen we've ever seen! Also, the house was a perfect location that we used as base camp for hiking in the White Mountains. It's on a peaceful side street but it was only about 2 blocks walk to Bethlehem's main street where we enjoyed browsing in the used bookstore & other shops, as well as trips to Super Secret Ice Cream and Rek'lis Brewing (both not to be missed!) Great, super friendly & communicative hosts.
