As a couple, the Bear View cabin satisfied almost all of our needs during our 2 night stay right after Labor Day. Given that our stay was only 2 nights, we didn't have a chance to take advantage of all of the amenities. We did enjoy the hot tub both evenings but did not have an opportunity to use the fire pit (firewood was provided free of charge), the grill or have time to sit on the patio and enjoy the peace and quiet. This would be a great place for a small family or 2 couples to stay; as long as you have people who are okay sleeping on a sofa bed. The only minor complaint we have relates to these instructions from the host: "During the summer, the thermostats are set for cooling only. Please do not adjust them, as the in-floor cooling system works slowly and is set to keep the building comfortable throughout the day. If you need extra warmth at night, please use the fireplace and the cadet heaters in the bedrooms." Our problem with this was that the thermostats were set to 64 degrees and my wife is always, always, always cold. Being told not to adjust the thermostat meant that we had to have the fireplace and the cadet heaters on at all times while we were there, not just at night, in order for the temperature to be at an acceptable level for my wife. This is the only minor complaint we have. Bottom line - nice location, great amenities, timely host communication, a tad pricey but not overly so given the pricing of other rentals, We would definitely stay here again.
