Wonderful little family get away
Everything about our stay was wonderful! The price was great and the host was very communicative. She let us know things to do in the area and checked in throughout the stay. Questions were answered in a very timely manner. We were able to bring our small dog which made planning the trip even easier. The host provided bowls and a bed which made our dog (and us) very happy. Before we'd left I'd already looked at other dates to book this property! Highly recommend!

Great little headquarters for exploring!
The house is in a quiet neighborhood with everything you might need and thoughtful details like kcups and regular coffee for the different kinds of coffee machines (we added our leftover k cups!) and a big flashlight by the door for taking the dog out at night. I'm always a little wary of properties that take dogs (even though we often travel with ours) because sometimes it's obvious a dog has been there. That was not the case here - the house was clean and if there were t dog beds (which our dog loved) and bowls then we would have never known. Communication with the owner was excellent and she was very sweet to suggest some things to do as well as respond quickly. The house is "well loved" in that it feels cozy and lived in (very strong bear theme, which the kids loved!) but has a nice layout for hanging out with the family and the big kitchen is a plus. We wouldn't hesitate to book again! Make sure you check out neighboring Littleton for a fun downtown and covered bridge.

Relaxing home
This home had everything we needed. It is very comfortable with enough space to rest and just hang out. We enjoyed this home and it was the perfect location for us to see many sights in the area without going too far. The restaurant one block away was fantastic.

Bear Crossing is family friendly property in a super convenient Bethlehem location! I loved that you could walk to all of the downtown restaurants and attractions in minutes. Wonderful hiking and biking trails were also minutes away. I enjoyed the convenience of having a well stocked property. All of the bedding and towels you could ask for. We ate out almost every meal, I could see that the kitchen was well stocked. We never ran out of coffee cups or drinking glasses! The air-conditioning was a plus, the weather was hot during our visit. Two full bathrooms were very clean and convenient for a family of four. Marilyn was a welcoming and gracious host. I appreciated her quick response to my question. My only suggestion would be to improve the mattress in the master and leave some space in dressers and closets for your guest to unpack. Thanks for a lovely holiday at Bear Crossing!

Wonderful Family Vacation
We had a great time in the White Mountains during our stay at Bear Crossing. The property had everything we needed and had ample space for our family of 4. The location was close to all the places we wanted to visit and made for a great family vacation. We hope to stay again!

Great Stay!
We really enjoyed our stay! Communication was great, the house was well stocked and all the little details were thought of. The pictures online make it kind of hard to grasp the layout but we were pleasantly surprised with the space. Two adult couples and two teens had plenty of room to hang out together, but also enough room to spread out and wind down!

Perfect for Cannon Mountain
Great Host! Marilyn goes above and beyond for her guests. The place is 12 minutes to cannon mountain. Roomy house where a family of 5 had plenty of room. Most importantly, the house is clean. Marilyn was a great communicator with every detail from booking to checkout. Book this house - you will not regret it.

Clean, comfortable home in a very convenient location. Owner was responsive and provided great info on area. Pet friendly with beds, bowls, and outdoor run provided. The only drawback was the 15 steps to get to door, which would only have been a problem if older relatives had stayed with us.
