Spent a couple days here while visiting family. The place is very cozy, and the area is beautiful. We will definitely be back again.
My family and I were in town to attend Homecoming at St. John's University. The property had plenty of room with many thoughtful touches. This was return stay for us and we will definitely be back!!!
Wow! Another great stay at our favorite VRBO. My husband and I stayed here with another couple to attend the SJU football game over a long weekend. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit with s’mores, clean amenities, and warm ambiance. There is an apple orchard a mile away and so many fun shops and restaurants nearby in St Joe. We will be back! Thank you Jim and Robin!
This property is well appointed, super clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owners are great, always available to answer questions. We’ll be back!!
Absolutely amazing place!! Pictures don’t tell the whole story. Everything you could need is provided and well thought out. Even had special bowls and treats for our dogs.
The Log Bear Den is a amazing get away in central Minnesota. Our stay was awesome ! We loved the Log Bear Den. It was very spacious and had everything we needed, bunk beds in the living room,a large bed in the master bed room, a long with a flat screen TV, a big bathroom with a tub & shower, they allowed pets, the air worked great, & The walk out patio was huge it had a propane grill, a fire pit, sturdy lawn chairs and a big table with a pop up honing. You have a great view of the forest along with a pond . Your not far from activities near town and there is a beautiful lake near by with great fishing along with a large swimming beach. Jim & Robin were very nice & Acomdating right down to our last day. My Wife & I would highly recommend the Log Bear Den in Avon Minnesota. We will be back ! Tom & Kim Ackerland
Was a secluded little getaway just to relax and do very little other than decompress and this was perfect. Close to St Cloud of you need anything and plenty of amenities nearby as well. Great little relaxation spot!
Jim and Robin were great hosts. We came to celebrate our 15 yr anniversary and this place did not disappoint. The space was private and super quiet. Equipped for all our needs and was a great space to relax after some biking. The bed was super comfortable along with the different pieces of furniture for playing games or watching a movie. Thank you for a great getaway!
So relaxing and beautiful. Jim and Robin are great host. Top of our list for Vrbo, we will be back.
A beautiful property to stay at, especially with our dog, and very close to our daughter’s college for all of the graduation events.
We visit a lot of VRBOs & this was so far beyond “a stay”, it was a magical “experience”. So CLEAN, cozy, the wildlife provided an intimate connection to nature, serene, yet close to town! We will be back, even if it’s a staycation! Robin & Jim were amazing hosts. Thank You for ensuring we had absolutely everything we needed! P.S. Did I mention how clean it was!?! Highly recommend to come for some R&R.
This is our 3rd year staying at the Log Bear Den for a family girls weekend. Robin & Jim are fantastic hosts and the accommodations are wonderful. All the attention to the details doesn’t go unnoticed. Also, it is so clean, every time! Thank you for providing us a great space to enjoy our girl time. This year we spent most of adventures in St. Joseph - only a 10 minute drive with some delicious food (we dined at the Italian restaurant both nights!), shopped some of the cute boutiques and enjoyed a flight from Bad Habit Brewing. We also stopped for a cider at Milk & Honey. Already looking forward to next year!!
Great place everything was as it said, only thing was I didn’t realize there was a check out procedure on the wall, had it been more “in my face” I would of had no issues with check out.
This place is spectacular!
Very easy to do business with Robin and Jim. Cordial, friendly and helpful. Looking forward to our next visit.
My boys and I love coming here with our dog. So comfortable, beautiful, and serene. Wonderful hosts!
Our family had such a great weekend. The place is so nice, clean, and lots of space. We loved hanging out inside to play board games and watch movies. The grounds outside were so spacious for throwing a ball around, playing bocce ball, and then having a fire on the back patio in fire pit.. The recommendations on side of fridge and in binder were very helpful also for restaurants and things to do. We really enjoyed bike riding in Lake Wobegon Trail between Avon and Albany.
Very beautiful and peaceful! Had everything we wanted for a quiet weekend. Comfortable and clean.
We really enjoyed our stay-the outside grounds were gorgeous and so peaceful. The inside had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We would highly recommend this spot! : )
It was serene and quiet .
My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful and peaceful stay at the Log Bear Den for our 15th wedding anniversary. We enjoyed sitting on the patio in the evenings. Jim and Robin have made it easy to enjoy this home away from home with all the amenities needed. I loved being able to use the garage for our vehicle. We went up to Waite Park for dinner, which is only a 20 minute drive. This was a great trip, and we are sad to have to get back to real life. :)
The property is beautiful with hiking trails its a good nature retreat. The only thing was I did not get cell coverage in the house but did outside. WIFI was reliable and the TV did get Roku for the little one to watch Disney.
We had a wonderful stay at Log Bear Den. The property is fantastic with a lot of care put into making our stay feel welcoming and relaxing. No issues and no concerns - just peace and quiet and such a beautiful location.
My husband and I spent the weekend with our kids staying at this beautiful location to celebrate our oldest sons graduation from Saint John's University. Perfect location to campus, beautiful scenery, and great hosts!
