Need to unplug, unwind, and reconnect with nature Perhaps a romantic getaway Retreat to our 900 sq. ft. cabin nestled in 22 acres of the Northeast Kingdom's most magical forest. Wander the enchanted trails, dip your toes in Job's Pond, or take a short drive to scenic Lake Willoughby. Indoors, take in the natural views, relax in the meditation space, stargaze on the balcony, or just nap by the wood stove. Bear Cub invites you to breathe in and remember what inspires you.

Bear Cub Cabin was almost entirely built by the loving hands of a skilled carpenter, and you can feel it in every detail. The open-concept design of Bear Cub Cabin incorporates a fully equipped kitchen with a center island and an exposed beam ceiling as well as a spacious living area. In the winter months, cozy up to the warm glow of the heat stove, relax in the reading nook with the writings of Thoreau, or take a seat at the antique writing desk and let your pen follow your imagination back in time. The art and decor have been carefully selected to inspire and delight our guests, and include original woodcut prints and engravings from local artists as well as other whimsical touches and surprises.

Follow the spiral staircase up to the loft bedroom and sink into the luxurious linens of the queen-sized platform bed. Perhaps you'd like to start your mornings or end your days with quiet reflection time in the meditation space or venture out the French doors onto the balcony and listen to birds and the wind rustling the leaves.

While Bear Cub Cabin caters especially to natural views and experiences, we have installed a SmartTV in the loft bedroom in case you want to spend a rainy day relaxing with your favorite shows. A JVC Bluetooth speaker is onsite if you find yourself in need of some tunes. And the high-speed Starlink WIFI is robust if you need to take a Zoom call (although we hope you don't!) The brand new mini-split AC/Heating unit will keep the temperature right where you like it. For extra ambiance enjoy the gorgeous gas log heat stove.

**A full-size 4-wheel drive vehicle is a must for snow and mud seasons. The last 3 miles of the trip to Bear Cub Cabin are a gravel road. The road and the driveways are well maintained and regularly snow plowed but can get tricky at times with snow and ice conditions.

Please don't hesitate to ask if you have questions. We will do our best to accommodate you!

    This bear cabin was a magical, mysterious place filled with many curiosities and secrets to be found and told! We enjoyed every moment inside the cabin and didn’t want to leave! It was so cozy and comfy and yet calming and soothing at the same time. It felt like it was made just for us and we can’t wait to go back. It is the perfect little weekend getaway cabin for you and your loved ones!

    Private and quiet, meticulously clean, comfortable, and well stocked. Close to all the outdoor amenities, hiking and paddling, but also reasonably close (for the NEK!) to shopping if necessary. Tina is the best, available and responsive if you have any questions or issues. Thanks for sharing your place.

    A cozy, secluded, peaceful cabin! Spent a lot of time in Island Pond, fantastic state parks and wildlife areas. Shower water was very hot but everything was amazing!

    From the moment I walked in the door I knew it was a well cared for property. Very well appointed and charming decor. I felt fortunate to have found this place. Would recommend and would stay again.

    My husband and I had an absolutely wonderful experience staying at Bear Cub Cabin! The cabin was clean, wonderfully cozy, beautifully decorated with thoughtful and delightful art, and beyond peaceful. It had *everything* we needed and we felt instantly at home in the space. We came up to the NEK for my husband to attend a private workshop I gifted him for his birthday last year. While he attended his class each day, I enjoyed the quiet serenity of the cabin. With several feet of snow on the ground and the trees draped in a sparkly coat of crystallized snow, it was like a true Winter Wonderland. The cabin felt like an absolute oasis in the middle of this dreamworld - truly magical. We have stayed at many vacation rentals in many places and this was one of our absolute favorites. It was so perfect - thoughtfully equipped with a thorough guidebook that answered almost every question we had. When the one thing we couldn't find in there came up, we reached out to Tina and received an immediate response and address to the inquiry. I can't praise this place enough! We already can't wait to come back

    My wife and I stayed for a week and it was our first time exploring Vermont. The cabin has everything you need with a well stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, and an awesome fireplace. If you are looking for a quiet sanctuary this is the place to be. Look forward to visiting again in the future.

    A wonderful property, secluded in the forests of northern Vermont. We stayed during the summer. The property is exactly as advertised. It is perfect for those seeking a quiet getaway. The kitchen is well-equipped, and there are fantastic farm-stands in the area to supply yourself with local produce, eggs, etc. There are also some great restaurants in the surrounding villages. Try The Inn at Burklyn for a fancy splurge, or The Burke Public House for seriously good pub food. We enjoyed a quiet weekend of reading on the front porch, board games, and star-gazing from the top deck. For something off-beat, we recommend a day excursion to The Museum of Everyday Life and The Bread + Puppets Museum. Parker Pie House is a great stop for lunch in the area. We also recommend Next Trick brewery, which is only a few miles down the road. If you're coming from the south, and enjoy baking, a stop at the King Arthur campus in Norwich is an absolute must. Overall a wonderful experience that will rejuvenate busy lives. Justin + Grace

    Great stay, clean and comfortable, close to excellence hiking and paddling. A quiet escape, just remote enough to somewhat unplug, but everything you might need is available in Island Pond or Newport. Thanks Tina!
