The only thing that might be improved would be trailer parking - it was tight and if other trailers had been there, we may have had a problem.

Repeat visitor!

We just stayed at the Bear Den for the third time and have already rebooked for next year! It’s an adorable cabin, very clean. The three seasons room is to die for! My husband and I came up for a long weekend getaway and to go fishing. We bring our fishing boat and utilize the dock. The lake is very small and quite with easy access to the larger wild cat lake through a channel. There are close neighbors since the cabin is on a property that was previously a resort, but we’ve visited 3 times and never had noise problems. The lake is full of fish and lots of other wildlife, including an eagles nest. Can’t wait for our next visit!

Biking the trails

The bike trail system in the area is amazing. We were able to fit in a few rides even though the weather was quite chilly. At the end of our rides it was nice to come back to the warm and comfortable cabin.

Northwoods Getaway

Very much enjoyed the little cabin! Other cabins are right next to each other. Everyone around us was quiet so no problem there but if you’re looking for a secluded place this would not be it. If you have kids this may be a good place for you…. A nice little beach for them to play at, a small playground & a couple of basketball hoops! A rowboat was there for our use as well as one kayak. I would recommend this place if you like all those things.

Charming Cabin w/great views & eagle watching!

We loved our New Year’s Eve weekend visit with our family at this cabin. The cabin has cozy and rustic decor and was in a great location! We enjoyed heading right outside to the dock in the mornings for eagle watching and observing the ice fishermen on the lake. The cabin is centrally located to Boulder Junction which was a fantastic northwoods town with lots of great local restaurants and hiking trails (and snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, & snowmobiling, weather-permitting). The owners were very friendly and accommodating. We’ll definitely be back to visit again!

Lovely property

The Bear Den was a tastefully appointed cabin conveniently located on a lovely lake system. Thanks to the owners' thoughtful provision, we were able to enjoy the surprisingly clear waters of Big Kitten and Wildcat Lakes in their kayaks and roomy fishing boat. The town of Boulder Junction was a just a few minutes away for any needed errands or supplies. We were especially delighted to discover Grassy Creek Ranch just a minute away for some wonderful horseback riding with Sonny and Kyle. Bear Den owners Mike and Laura were very kind and made themselves available for any questions we might have and were prompt to respond. We look forward to returning in the future.

Wonderful cabin & great lake

We love staying at the Bear Den! We just finished our second stay and will definitely be back! It’s an adorable, clean cabin with all you need. The screamed porch is my favorite part! While you’re close to your neighbors the trees give the sense of privacy and noise has not been a problem on either of our visits. We bring our fishing boat and it’s wonderful to have our own pier with access to both the small quite Little Kitten lake as well as the much larger Wildcat Lake. The fishing is great and the scenery is beautiful! We can’t wait for our next stay!

Why they chose this property

This is my husband's dream to have a cabin located in the northwoods. He is a big fisherman, boater, hunter and snowmobiler and this location offers it all. As for me, I love being in the woods and being part of nature's solitude. We both enjoy all outdoor sports and this property is perfect. We hope you think so too.

What makes this property unique

If you want a true Northwoods vacation experience, this is the prime resort to stay at. It is located right on Kitten Lake, and has many activities for people of all ages.

The town of Boulder Junction is a few miles away which offers quaint shops, amazing art galleries, and wonderful restaurants with a small town atmosphere that are unique to the area.
