Great Family Vacation ♥️
We enjoyed our stay in this comfortable vacay home. It was perfect, since the master bedroom is on the main floor separate from the downstairs bedrooms or sleeping areas. My son’s twin 4 month old babies stayed downstairs and we older folk didn’t hear them during the night. The kids and the adults enjoyed the game room. Wonderful interaction. All our meals were cooked using all of the cookware, including outdoor barbecue. Our host was responsive and friendly. She wanted ensure we had everything along with providing us eateries!

Perfect Getaway
Just had an amazing weekend at Bear Cabin. The place had everything we needed for a great time—pool table, ping pong, basketball court, and multiple balconies to just chill and enjoy the view. The cabin was super cozy and perfect for hanging out. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing getaway!

Perfect family fun getaway
We booked this home because of the appeal of multiple spots for kids to hang out and play. When we arrived, check in was a breeze and we had a clean and inviting home waiting for us. We enjoyed eating together at the table, playing in the game rooms both downstairs and in the garage. We also enjoyed using the sleds provided and the perfect sledding hills for young kids. Communication with Annie was great and she was a wonderful host! We look forward to spending more family time together in this Sierra Delight.

Our family had an absolutely fabulous time in Angie's lovely home and were so satisfied with the space. Annie was quick to respond to the few issues we had and they were resolved without hassle. The house is well stocked with everything you can possibly need and and the children enjoyed having their own play area. Thank you Annie for sharing your home with us and making our family getaway enjoyable.

The house is clean and welcoming! The view out of every window is amazing with trees and nature everywhere you look. Annie is amazing with her communication.

Good times!
Great place to stay! We all had a good time. Close to other places to explore. Noise travels on the mountain so I didn't get to enjoy outdoor music. Worried about getting a complaint from the neighbors. Other than that this place is badass! Annie is awesome and catered to a couple requests I made. I'd definitely return here in the future!

Arnold snowboarding trip
The home itself is beautiful, just as shown in the pictures. Clean, spacious, and well-stocked. There is no shortage of fun games and activities for kids to enjoy with their families. The detached game room (with a unique thermostat, key for winter) is fantastic- pool, ping pong, and golf putting practice were particular favorites. But what really capped our experience was the interaction with the owner/manager, Annie. She is remarkably easy to work with- communicative, flexible, considerate, and kind. I would definitely rebook this home based on the home itself as well as the experience with Annie as a host.

Comfortable, great communication
The home is well equipped and the owner is very responsive to questions. The game table, though diminutive, was heartily enjoyed by our tweens as we waited out the rains. New couches are very comfortable and great for enjoying the big screens.

Incredible Family Vacation
We were looking for a place were we could all gather and enjoy each others company. This was the perfect spot! Our host was wonderful. Every time we had a question she was able to tell us exactly what was needed. We stayed for Father's Day and my husband had a great time playing with his son's in the game room. There were all kinds of activities very close by. We had wonderful family meals that we made in the kitchen and ate all together at the table. This was an amazing house to stay at. It was so comfortable and we all enjoyed our time there. We would like to make it a yearly event!

Absolutely the best!!! Perfect place to stay with family.
My family and I were all amazed with this rental. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything you could need. The cleanliness was top notch, had a warm cabin feeling and fun opportunities. Annie (the host) was so kind, she offered a great list of fun things to do that were close by and such a quick response time. You can tell she takes great pride in her home and wants your stay to be as great as it can be. This home has a great open feeling to gather all your friends and family together, the game room was a HUGE hit with the kids and kept them entertained for hours. There are other houses near but you still feel like you are secluded in the woods and don't really notice them. The house was a great layout and had all the comforts you could need. We stay in lots of rentals homes and this one was by far the most well stocked. We had a large group and everyone of us was comfortable with plenty of space. We absolutely would rent this home again. There was a ton to do close by and amazing setting. This home really is a 5 star!!!
