This is the perfect place for a family, (or group) gathering. There is a well supplied kitchen on the main level integrated into the living room so that the cooks can enjoy the party and not miss a thing. The dining table is large enough to seat everyone in the group. Black Bear Lodge is located close to fabulous hiking, mountain climbing or shopping and the many water toys provide endless diverse activities for kids of all ages. There is plenty of room on each of the three levels for a quiet nap or reading that next chapter. I especially enjoyed the deck off the living room and the fabulous views. The lower level has a ping pong table and other fun games with sliding glass doors to the lake as well. The youngest in our group is eighteen and the oldest is eighty five. WE ALL HAD FUN AND HOPE TO RETURN.

This is a beautiful spot right on the shore of Lake Mascoma. It was clean and spacious with great amenities. The kitchen was so well stocked from plates and glasses to a wide variety of cooking utensils and pots and pans. We’ve already decided we’re returning next year!

Great stay

Our family absolutely loved this house and all of the room as well as location. The trampoline and raft on the water were an added bonus. Many of us fished or swam in the beautiful lake. The owner was very responsive.

Wonderful home, perfect for groups.

Our ski team greatly enjoyed our stay at the Black Bear Lodge! We loved the convenient location, just a short drive from Whaleback Mountain and the beautiful views of the lake. Most importantly, Andy was a very responsive and understanding host to work with.

Black bear lodge was perfect for our family

I can’t say enough good things about this house. It was well stocked, had lots of towels and kitchen amenities. The house was quiet even though it’s near a campground and the road. The view from the second floor was beautiful and we loved the outside deck. We loved the large wooden table near the kitchen. We hope to stay there again!!

Great family friendly home!

This was our second year staying at The Black Bear Lodge with our large extended family and we had an amazing time. There is plenty of room for all of us and Adam is very responsive and accommodating. The kids loved the addition of the diving float!

Graduation weeked

Needed a large house for family and friends for graduation weekend. As it turned out it was just my wife and myself, most of the time. Great location on the lake and nice open layout of house for entertaining or larger groups (5 bedrooms). But also nice place just for a couple that likes room.

Fantastic weekend!

We rented this house as an annual Lake Weekend getaway with friends, and will likely rent again! First to mention is the location-- gorgeous house right on the lake, with a floating dock and big yard. We had the best time using the house kayaks, swimming to dock, and floating on the lake. We also grilled dinner on the deck and had fires in the fire pits at night. The house itself was perfect for our group of 17- a nice big kitchen & table to prepare meals, and many common spaces for relaxing. I would absolutely recommend this house, it was perfect!

The house was beautiful. There so much room and we loved that it has three floors with bathrooms on

Our family had such a great time. We did some boating and kayaking and the kids were swimming.. we all walked down the street to get ice cream. It was such a great time. There are stores near by so that’s very convenient. Andy was amazing to deal with. He always responded to txs or emails and he was very helpful. I would definitely recommend this house for a get away!!!! Margo Douston

It’s really hard not to give this place five stars across the board! When we arrived, there was some kitchen cleanup that we needed to do in order to function in the kitchen. It really was a matter of people not respecting the property. In addition, and it is not the owner’s fault, the lake was really low, so it was a little bit of a challenge for us to use our boat. Next time we just need to watch the rain and it’s affect on boat use. We had a great family vacation! Andy is an excellent host and he is very responsive!
