The Bear's Den was one of the best experiences we have ever had with a vacation rental.The hosts were responsive and genuinely invested in our having a great experience. Despite an area wide blackout when we arrived, the AC's were on and the house was cool and everything up & running thanks to an automatic generator. Our hosts had left a welcome with all S'more makings, which was a big hit with the grandchildren. The house itself was perfect for our extended family. Clean, spacious rooms, and every amenity we could ask for. A beautiful wrap around deck overlooking the water was a favorite spot for the adults ... and our children claimed the lower level game area for themselves immediately. They even all put down their phones for the weekend, which we loved!As hosts, I would offer Marc & Tina the highest rating!We look forward to many additional trips to The Bear's Den for years to come! Thank you for a great family memory!!
