Cozy 3BR/2BA mountain home with views, fireplace, and family-friendly amenities
This cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is the perfect getaway, featuring a comfy TV room, a well-stocked kitchen, and a sunny sitting room with a full-size pullout bed and stunning views of 14,000-foot peaks. Watch for deer, enjoy a family game night from the game cabinet, or unwind by the fireplace. Thoughtfully equipped with everything you need, The Bear’s Den pampers you with comfort and mountain charm from the moment you arrive.
We respond quickly to any questions during your stay via text, phone or app. We are just a few minutes away and available 24/7 for any needs that may need an onsite visit.
This home less than 4 miles from downtown Buena Vista. It is off of a county road, has a long driveway, and has a retreat vibe. Buena Vista is a charming town enveloped by majestic peaks and the winding Arkansas River. With its vibrant main street lined with colorful storefronts, restaurants, friendly locals, and a laid back atmosphere, this gem of a town offers a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. Whether you are soaking in the hot springs, exploring the nearby hiking trails or simply savoring a cup of coffee at a cozy café, BV exudes a sense of warmth and authenticity that will leave you feeling right at home.
Welcome to The Bear’s Den — a warm and inviting mountain getaway where comfort meets Colorado charm. This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect setting for families, couples, or friends looking to relax and reconnect in beautiful Buena Vista.
The primary bedroom features a comfortable king bed and an ensuite bathroom for added privacy. The second bedroom has two twin beds, and the third has a queen bed. Each room is thoughtfully decorated with cozy mountain touches to make you feel right at home. The second full bathroom is conveniently located off the hallway.
The living room is a cozy retreat with a plush sectional and a large TV—ideal for movie nights or lazy mornings. A gas fireplace adds the perfect touch of warmth and ambiance on chilly mountain evenings. There’s also a separate sitting room surrounded by windows, offering mountain views, natural light, and a full-size pullout bed for extra sleeping space.
The updated kitchen makes cooking a breeze, with everything you need to prepare meals. Gather around the dining table for family dinners or enjoy a casual breakfast before a day of hiking or exploring town.
Step outside and you’ll find a peaceful outdoor space where you can sip coffee in the morning or stargaze at night. Keep your eyes out for local deer wandering by and take in the unobstructed views of the 14,000-foot peaks that surround the area.
With a game cabinet full of board games, fast Wi-Fi, and plenty of cozy nooks, The Bear’s Den is more than just a place to stay—it’s a place to unwind, explore, and create lasting memories.
Buena Vista is easy to get around! Biking is a favorite here, with plenty of scenic trails and bike-friendly streets. If you’re driving, there’s plenty of parking, and major highways make it simple to head out on day trips. For other options, rideshares like Uber and Lyft are available, along with local shuttles and taxis, so getting around is always a breeze!
