Secluded home with great views.

Drive to the property is steep gravel road. We encountered a few harmless spiders in the corners of hallway or bathrooms that were easily dispatched. The blind over the door at the end of the hall doesn't fonalway the way to the bottom of the glass. The air was a little humid when we arrived but that was quickly resolved with the units in the home. These minor issues were the only negatives for my family. The porch and views were incredible. Even though we didn't cook on our short stay, the kitchen is very nice and guests could cook if they wanted. The fireplace was nice and would be enjoyable in cool weather. The wifi worked well. We were able to use the smart TV and Roku to stream our indoor entertainment. We've stayed in the area many times so we were plased with the location and the quiet seclusion of the property. My boys enjoyed the upstairs bedroom. I also was very pleased with the responsiveness of the owner. I would recommend this property if you are looking for a secluded getaway with great views.

Mountain top

Bear's Rest was exactly that! We hiked all day in Dupont and retreated to the top of a mountain for a great night's rest. The views were spectacular. Caution- they are not kidding about the drive...it's steep...well worth it!

Peace and Quiet with an amazing view

Just what we needed. The house is nice and the property is amazing, so peaceful and quiet. We woke up every morning and had coffee on the front porch and watched the sun come up over the ridgelines. Would definitely recommend to anyone that asks and return in the future.

Great view, great porch

The porch and the fireplace are the highlights of this house. The porch is wraparound with plenty of comfortable furniture to relax. It was chilly when we were there but still bundled up to watch the sunrise with my morning coffee. I would love to come back in the summer when we can truly enjoy the great porch and property. On the chilly evenings we enjoyed sitting in front of the gas fireplace. The house is equipped with everything we needed. Hosts were very responsive when we had a question. The road to get to the home is a bit of a challenge - it’s gravel and there are some ruts to watch out for. The last little bit is very steep, but by that point it’s paved again. With that said, the view and the property is worth the climb.One note about pillows: if you’re particular about pillows you may want to bring your own. The pillows on the 2 king beds are very thick and dense. We found them uncomfortable. Were did find a 2 that worked better in the upstairs bedroom closet. Great property, I would recommend it if you’re looking for a beautiful place to relax.
