We had a great stay at Bear Vista. The mountain views from the back deck were amazing. We really enjoyed the hot tub, propane fire pit, and the game room. The cabin was very spacious and it was nice that everything was on one level. Vicky was very accomodating. Would definately stay here again!

If you don’t like steep mountain roads and hair pin turns then this cabin is not for you. We had a few hiccups when we got there but Vicki was right on top of it and had the issues taken care of in a matter of a few hours. The house was very clean. Loved the view from the deck. Each room has a king bed and one has its on en-suite bathroom. We had fun playing pool and table top shuffle board even if I couldn’t find the pool sticks. Thanks again Vicki to the rescue. Her recommendation for a pool was spot on. We were a little further from town than we wanted but all in all a great place to stay and would go back.
