Pets aren't allowed on furniture or in the beds. Please do not leave fuzzy home alone. We know from experience that when animals are left alone they get nervous and want to curl up in bed where you sleep and it ends up becoming a major issue for our cleaning crew. If the house is left with extra cleaning from pets and we have to incur additional cleaning charges or the bedding/linens needs to be replaced, we will be forwarding them to you at cost.

    What a cute and comfortable place. The hosts have a refined sense of aesthetics and we enjoyed staying in this environment surrounded by interesting art. In addition, the host Billy gave us a gracious welcome that we appreciated. And if you haven't seen southeast Utah (Bear Ears, Bluff, Mexican Hat/Monument Valley, Canyonlands NP, Arches NP, Moab, etc.) you are missing one of the most stunning natural environments in the entire US. We spent four long, full days touring and could have stayed longer.

    Roomy and well appointed house with character and comfort. Two of the bedrooms are in the basement, but the basement is clean and finished really well with another living space and very roomy bathroom. Everything you need in a convenient location in town. Would absolutely stay there again.

    Fairly well stocked kitchen with dishes and pans. Decorated nicely, except we found the big bear a little scary. The listing did not mention how steep the stairs were to the basement.Over all, it was a very nice stay for our sibling get together.

    The property was cute, the kitchen was well stocked, they had a nice welcome basket of snack snacks in the kitchen, it was clean. Only the area of improvement would be that the beds in the basement were very firm. They could use a mattress topper. The bed upstairs were great! Also the water pressure in the kitchen was low, but it didn’t stop us from being able to do the dishes. All in all, it was a good experience. The Neighborhood felt safe and it was a good jumping off point to go to monument valley and natural bridges.

    The hosts for Big Bear were a pleasure to work with! The home is wonderful with a lot of rooms and sleeping areas. We loved that the family room and large dining table area were together. The home is warm and welcoming and the hosts have the home stocked with everything that you could possibly need. We had a wonderful time!

    Great location and just what we wanted. We rode off-road adventure motorcycles in SE Utah for seven days, and this was a great base. The house was perfect for 5 guys. The house had everything we needed, and the host had a great welcome package. I would recommend this location to anyone.

    We (a family with 6 persons) enjoyed our stay in this beary house which has a funny atmosphere. The quality of the mattresses is good, and the children liked the amazing amount of televisions. The neighbourhood is calm - therefore possible to sleep with open windows. Kitchen is well equipped. A kind welcome package was waiting for us when we came. However, there is some room for improvement. Two upper bedrooms and one bedroom in the cellar have an airco - the other two haven’t and were thus too hot to use (we were in Blanding beginning of august). The living has an airco - the kitchen hasn’t and gets thus rather warm. Some windows needed repairs or were impossible to open. The plug of the bathtub was missing. There are two microwaves in the kitchen - the larger one above the stove is not functioning. When we came, the house was hot, without airco turned on - it took some time to cool the house down.

    We were charged for cleaning service and then when we left the house he texted not to come back cause the maid sent him pictures of her job and I don’t know why he felt the need to threaten me for not cleaning a house that I paid for cleaning services then assumed cause I forgot my hormone test in the bathroom told me I left a drug test there was no communication about sweep vacuuming mopping or cleaning the bathroom so idk why I was charged for cleaning services. Who books a hotel then cleans it up as you leave I would understand if the house was ripped apart but this is beyond ridiculous the pictures below are what he sent I had children and I was home for funeral arrangements so this was a time I knew I was 100% but none of the way he handled that was necessary

    Clean and well located in a quiet neighborhood in Blanding. Well supplied.I have to deduct one star for cold feet. Hosts repeatedly and strongly asked for no shoes to be worn in the house. That's fine, but the heat units are located near the ceiling and were not easy to program.(hosts provided an explanatory video for a different model unit than the one installed). Mainly hard floors and kitchen does not have a heat unit. Our last morning there the heater was set at 75 degrees but external thermometers showed 64 degrees in the loving room.
