Beautiful setting in a convenient location.

Very beautiful location and the owner of the property was very helpful.

We had a great experience renting this property, everything was as advertised, and then some! A few minor glitches were promptly handled by a very accessible and accommodating owner. Thanks!

We stayed at the Bears Lair for Christmas with family. The house was beautiful and cozy. It was clean and had everything we needed. The house had nice personal touches that made you feel welcome and at home. The beds were very comfortable and there were ample blankets and throws which I loved! We had some difficulty getting the keys out of the lock box when we arrived, but Erik responded immediately and we were in the house within minutes. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Bear’s Lair is a wonderfully accommodating property. It’s comfy and cozy and yet spacious as well. It’s thoughtfully designed and has a lovely feel to it. Each of the three floors has a comfortable sitting area with a TV. All the couches and easy chairs have plush throws to snuggle into. I loved the beautiful fireplace and the large dining room table and the big windows. The host was terrific: Eric was available by phone and quickly returned several calls. He helped me out with a few logistics like my inability to master the TV remotes (I’m not adept with remotes!). We were in NH for a family wedding. We had different folks staying with us before and after the wedding and hosted several family dinners. The little grocery in Campton had a great meat selection and we made good use of the grille. We look forward to coming back when we have a more open agenda and time to take advantage of the area and The Waterville Estates amenities. It’s a great place!

We had a wonderful stay at The Bear's Lair. The pictures don't do it justice, the space is really expansive and bright, yet cozy. We enjoyed sitting by the fire and watching movies on a rainy day and venturing out into nearby Waterville Valley and Plymouth when the weather cleared. The house has very comfortable furniture and little nooks for relaxing. The kitchen is well stocked, and the owner is very responsive. All around great place! Thank you!

Check in was very easy. The pictures definitely make the house look larger than it is. Once we were there we noticed video cameras with voice recording option by the deck and under the deck by basement door this wasn’t advertised. Our first night stay the master bedroom bed was covered in bugs when we got home from dinner (have videos of it) we ended up staying in the basement for the remainder of the vacation. We also noticed one of the smoke/carbon monoxide had the battery pulled out so it wasn’t working. The deck had one section of railing that was disconnected and that area was about ten feet off the ground. We connected Vrbo about the issues when we finally got through to them after an hour and a half wait they connected the host who said he would send someone out to address the issues. We never saw anyone but the landscaper the week we were there and nothing was fixed. Texting the host was at least an hour to reply if not longer. The good was the house was in a quiet area the AC worked great.

The property was a gorgeous log home that our entire family loved. We explored various local attractions and had a great time. The hosts were good at communicating.

Don't let the look of this wood cabin outside fool you, when we arrived we thought it looked pretty small but once inside were amazed at how much space there was, 3 floors with multiple sitting areas, TVs and lounging options. Incredibly clean. Ample towels and bed linens. Everything you need for cooking, baking, boiling, grilling is all in the kitchen. We grilled several nights, tank was full when we arrived and did not have to fill (property does not guarantee will be filled but Hardware store is easy to get to). Played fetch with our dog in the backyard (a little awkward because it slopes down but she didn't care!). The community center is rustic but has a lot of pool and hot tub options, we also swam in the pond out back. There was a little snafu with the passes for the center (the listing said 4 passes provided and we only ended up receiving 2) and we couldn't find the passes, but Erik returned my call immediately and spoke with the center and fixed the problem. They have some pretty strict rules over there, none of which are part of this property, and won't let you in if you forget your green card! Any additional people in your family are charged a day pass, something to consider. This property is a great location within short driving distances to many attractions and towns--we visited Lost River Gorge, Franconia State Park, Saco River Tubing, world's longest candy counter at Chutters in Littleton NH, and went Geocaching in Campton. A must is the Little Red School House Restaurant--we are from the north shore of Boston and this was the best seafood we have had in a long time! And the Mad River Coffeehouse, GREAT coffee and muffins. My kids loved the Froyo shop a quick drive down the road, along with the Vintage Arcade. Overall a great quiet lovely location and home. Definitely recommend!

Beautiful house! Very clean and had everything we needed. Quiet nice neighborhood. Beautiful 40 minute ride to weirs beach

Beautiful log cabin, very clean, close to everything! Would definitely stay again!

The Bears Lair was the best! Such a cute property with plenty of space for all of us. Communication was easy and so was check in! Loved our stay!

This is a perfect cabin for you and another person or a whole family. I stayed with my dogs and friend and we had the fire going. the. whole time. just enjoying the views from the sofa outside. It's a short trip from Boston and also close to restaurants and anything you might need during your stay. I will be. back!

Wonderful property and Erik was easy to work with. Will be back!

The cabin is lovely and well-situated for enjoying the White Mountains. We loved the big deck in mornings and afternoons; as the sun passes overhead you can move the Adirondack chairs under the covered porch for shade or enjoy the sun on the wraparound outdoor couch. While the cabin isn't huge itself, it is really well designed and offers comfortable hangout spaces for several clusters of people: a big area by the fireplace in the main room seats 5-6 comfortably, a chaise in the loft is great for reading, the downstairs den has a great couch and tv is naturally cool in the summer. The nice layout and fast internet meant we the three of us were able to do Zoom meetings/classes in separate areas when needed. In terms of location, it's a quick 20 minutes up to Franconia Notch for amazing hikes, 25 minutes to Rumney for climbing, and even closer to some nice hikes in Waterville Valley. It would be nice to have a hot tub on site rather than at the community clubhouse, but this is a terrific cabin and we'll be back!

Beautiful cozy property tucked away in the hills

The cabin is amazing and had everything we needed.
