Nice setup, games, amenities for families. Great central location. Comfy beds, hot tub inside was a nice perk. Host was responsive to requests and very accommodating.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Bear Cabin to bring in the new year! It was super clean, well stocked and close to everything we needed. We can’t wait to come back and stay again.
Exceeded our expectations! Super clean space! The hot tub indoors was unique but a fun experience. Nice touches and had all the things we needed. Fully stocked kitchen. Little things like lightswitch labels, comfy mattresses, arcade games, tvs in all rooms, plenty of bath and pool towels, bowls for the pets, really set this property apart from others. Location is perfect, especially if enjoying the resort or waterpark. Would stay again!

Great stay! Very comfortable, clean, and entertaining home. Also great communication with the host. Convenient to so many places. We hope to stay again.
It was perfect!! We couldn’t have asked for a nicer place. Location was perfect also. Great host. Answered all our questions. We have been to 4 different VRBO this year. Even though the others were great this one is perfect. We are already trying to figure if we can come back in February and May.
Host Stephanie was great! Stayed in communication and was very responsive.Nice comfortable home plenty of amenities. One of the best vacation rental home experiences I've had.
We had a lovely time at the Bear cottage. Our kids LOVED the game room and it was so helpful to have that in our downtime. We also loved the hottub every night after being on the slopes. Would definitely stay here again and recommend!
My bear cabin stay was lovely. The host was quick to respond to any questions. She sent instructions on how to get there. There was no issues getting into the house. The house was nice and clean. It was close to Massanutten’s waterpark and snow-tubing. My family and I even doordashed pizza and groceries from the food lion no issues with driver finding the house. Plenty of games for the kids. The beds and pillows were comfy. It was really a great stay 10/10. I would definitely stay there again. The house /cabin felt like home away from home.
This home was exactly as pictured and described! We enjoyed everything minute of our stay! The home was equipped with everything we needed. Spacious , clean, lots of games and activities inside the home and in close proximity to all the fun Massanutten attractions! The host was very responsive! We would definitely stay here again!
We had a great stay. The house is really pretty and very comfortable. It's stocked with all the necessary items and the owner was extremely helpful. The decorations were beautiful and the hot tub was awesome.
Took a quick weekend trip to Massanutten to kick off my birthday festivities and Bear Cabin couldn’t have been more perfect. 2 mins with 3 boys aged 6 and 9 and there was more than enough space, the games and amenities and decor were perfect to keep us busy when not at the indoor waterpark or snow tubing. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again!
