    We loved our stay here. We brought our 18 month old for a day in the snow. Super close to the mountain and they had all the kid stuff there which made it easy for us to get a night away with him!

    We enjoyed staying here as a family of 5. The location was great, an easy walk to the shuttle for tubing and skiiing, a nice little walk to coffee and nearby trail to enjoy the scenery. The owner was very responsive. The cabin is as listed, and met our expectations. Owner went above and beyond preparing for kids with games, step stool, high chair among other things.

    We had an incredible stay at Bear Family Cottage! From the moment we arrived, Jen was very helpful with the check in process and we felt right at home. The cabin was impeccably clean and well-maintained, with all the amenities we could have asked for. My daughter loved the spacious front deck and foosball table, while we enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the beautiful views from the deck. The location was perfect, just a short drive to the lake and local attractions. This cabin provided the perfect setting for our quick summer family getaway, and we can't wait to return!

    Our time in the area was brief in part of a longer vacation. The exterior looked a bit weathered, but that's expected after a long snow season. The interior was clean and practical. The location perfectly suited our needs - a good intermediate between mountain, lake, and village. Our toddler loved the toys and the overall stay was cozy. The host was very communicative, making sure we had whatever we needed during the stay. I'd definitely pick it again.

    This cottage is adorable! It’s a bit creaky (including the beds), but otherwise it was just what we were looking for! We were able to walk to get coffee at a charming coffee house and then go rest at the cottage before diving into our day. Would recommend :)
