Black Bear Lodge

Our stay overall was very accommodating to our guests. Sleeping arrangements work well for a group of 10! Very Nice that sheets and towels are provided! The fire pit had plenty of cut wood provided also a nice bonus! Departure rules are very simple! The location is very nice! It’s very secluded like advertised. It Centers to a lot of attractions! The house itself needs lots of TLC. Sliding doors are extremely hard to open/close. The toilets need updating. The kitchen kettles need updating badly. The regular coffee pot leaks from somewhere but not every brew. Also some kind of regular tv would be an added bonus! We also heard critters in the walls/ceilings each nite! Would rent again if above items are addressed.

A house with a lot to offer

The property was represented well by the lister. The house itself has plenty of room to accommodate all the people it can sleep. Between the games, pool/ping pong tables, woodpit, and grill the house itself has a lot to offer.

Family

Lovely home! The house is well appointed, comfortable, beautiful view, and plenty of room! We were coming into the area for a family wedding. The host was very accommodating to our needs, and the views to come back to after the get together were perfect.

Our 4th of July Get Away

The property is perfect for our family to stay. It is very clean and has every accommodation to fit our needs. The house has everything you would need to cook, bake and grill. Two seperate living room spots for family time. We enjoyed lots of Puzzles, Ladder ball and Cornhole. Recommended for a nice getaway. Kim is very repsonsive and helpful for any questions you may have. Thank you for allowing us to visit your home for 1 week.

I grew up in a home just a short distance from this property. My grandfather was one of the carpenters who built this home in the 1980's and I have always loved it. My husband and I are so honored to be the caretakers!
