Bear's Cliff is a modern mountain cozy comfort, perfectly located in uptown Pagosa with stunning views of the San Juan Mountains and Pagosa Lake.

Hike up the back hill to get a stunning, panoramic view of all Pagosa has to offer. It is a 5-minute drive to the uptown shopping center and amenities, within walking distance to the lake, and a 10-minute drive to the famous hot springs. Come kick back and relax, take in the fresh mountain air, and know that rest and relaxation await you.

HOUSE LAYOUT:
When you first arrive at the property, you will likely be greeted by a lovely breeze coming off of the lake. The door opens to a quaint entry, with a wide opening under the stairs to drop your gear and shoes. The garage is attached, accessible through the downstairs entryway or the garage door.
The top floor opens with a modern fireplace, complete with contemporary tiling. The relaxing sofa with a chaise is the perfect place to curl up with a book or to watch something on the TV, operating as a comfy work/lounge space. Next to the fireplace is the door to the balcony, which overlooks the tranquil waters of Pagosa Lake with the picturesque San Juan mountains in the background, framing the lake with a gorgeous view. You seriously cannot find more stunningly unique views in the entire region!
The charming and stylish kitchen, complete with brand new stainless steel appliances, would make anyone eager to start cooking! The small island makes for the perfect place to have breakfast or to get some work done! The unique, hexagonal dining table seats 4 - 6 and looks through the bay windows out at the serene lakefront. Across the open room is a work-top area, great for setting up a small “office away from home”.
The master bedroom is amazingly comfortable, with a relaxing king bed. The master bathroom boasts a 7-foot walk-in shower, appearing to be straight out of a magazine cover! The washer and dryer unit is stacked in a small closet next to the shower, completely out of your way while still being accessible.

A mama and baby deer were waiting in the driveway to welcome us. This is such a perfect home to explore Pagosa Springs. The neighborhood was peaceful and convenient, and the porch was the perfect place to read and relax. Communication was excellent.

It's wonderful to know that the property met your expectations as shown in the pictures. We look forward to welcoming you back for another fantastic stay. Safe travels!
Absolutely beautiful view off the upper porch. Very clean and cute decor inside. Beds were very comfortable and bathrooms were nice. Appreciated the extra touches: thick large bath towels, laundry detergent sheets, soaps and shampoo. We knew beforehand there’s no central a/c, but it was hotter than typical in CO during our stay. The living/kitchen area would get to 85 degrees during the day even though we closed shades and opened windows with fans. I would still return but in cooler months instead.

Thank you so much for your kind review, Stephen! Thank you for taking care of our home as if it were your own. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay. You've been very lovely guests! You are more than welcome to stay with us again!
Great vacation property! The views cannot be beat-beautiful lake and towering mountains. Had just enough of everything you might need in kitchen. Comfortable bed. Simply, but nicely furnished. The town’s main internet provider had an outage while we there and the management company sent someone with a hotspot which allowed us to have internet for our entire stay. Without us even asking. Great customer service! Would definitely stay here again. Perfect for a couple or small family-

Great views of the lake/mountains in front and tall Ponderosa Pine forest in back - both provide peaceful places to unplug and relax! Very comfortable beds/pillows and clean sheets. It was nice we could park our car in the attached garage. 1st time to Pagosa Springs, but won't be our last - we'll be back for more R&R in the beautiful San Juan Mountains!
