Absolutely Amazing!!!

This was my first time booking with Vrbo. The process was so easy. I viewed all of the images about Mama Bear's Retreat, and the pictures capture the cabin perfectly. It is a beautiful cabin and location. We enjoyed sitting on the covered porch drinking coffee and listening to nature in the mornings. The host was very responsive, and I will definitely stay again.

We had a great stay!

Cabin was beautiful. Plenty of space and beds are so comfy. The water(from the faucet) is HOT, so be careful! It’s simply decorated and that’s awesome. There’s not too much, just enough! Everything has its own place and it works of beautifully. Having the air hockey and mini pool table was awesome. The porch space and hot tub were bonuses! You have neighbors but you have your own privacy. There’s enough dishes and kitchen things to do what you need to do. The washer and dryer were so handy. Made coming home easy, with clean clothes. We had an amazing time and were happy to back everyday to this beautiful cabin.

Great Rental

We had a great stay at Mama Bear’s Cabin! Everything was very clean, nice and well decorated for Christmas. Only comments to add- we had 7 adults and 2 kids, when we all wanted to sit in the den (to watch tv, relax, etc) there wasn’t enough couch seating so we pulled some dining chairs in the room. Not a big deal, just FYI for anyone renting with a larger group of adults! The beds were super comfortable and communication with the host was easy and quick. Would definitely stay here again, but maybe with a smaller group next time. (Although there is a loft upstairs we could have split up and sat in different rooms if we had wanted to.) all in all great rental property!

Picturesque viewss of the mountains from all spots in the cabin. Warm and cozy with all the features of a modern home. Comfortable beds and cozy linens made for a very relaxing stay. Gaming areas for kids and adults alike. The hot tub was placed with perfect 360 views of the scenery. You won’t want to miss Mama Bears Cabin.

Wonderful trip

Excellent cabin in an excellent location. Not far from any of the many things to do in the area. The cabin does have a lot of steps to get into the cabin but this gives you a more secluded cabin that does not have the neighbors right beside you. We had an amazing trip. Had a small issue during our week but the owners were very responsive and fixed the issue quickly. Would definitely stay here again.
