We booked this property and filled each bed with friends to experience the eclipse. While the host couldn't control the weather, it ended up being the perfect location (and experience)! The house was just as described and the kitchen was fully stocked with every pan or utensil you could think of, which was helpful as we prepared each meal at the house (all ten of us fit around the table). Central location - we took a walk to the train depot, fire pit was used to cook lunch over, plenty of hot water, heat was responsive (didn't need the blankets she offered). We were very appreciative of the opportunity to save on a cleaning fee and do it ourselves. Host was also generous to flex on the arrival time, as we were staying during the off season.

Very cozy. Would stay again.

The house was lovely. Just as described. Very close to the center of town. We were able to fit 8 of us perfectly!

House was perfect for our family vacation. Close to town and had everything that we needed! Owner was great to work with and very friendly.

Red flag when it says they do not hire a cleaning company but expect the renters to clean when they leave which I always do I sweep and mop and vacuum clean the bathrooms but here we also had to wash the sheets and towels which I did. We were told the beds were made with clean sheets when we got ready for bed none of the beds were made we had to search for sheets all the pillow cases were still on the pillows so obviously they weren’t clean. There were no towels in the upstairs bathroom because they were still in the dryer. The one bedroom we couldn’t use because there was a spring poking you in the back. I would suggest new mattress on all beds. Plus right behind the house is another house it is a shared driveway. I have learned my lesson and will never rent from someone who doesn’t have a cleaning company

This property is extremely adorable and in a perfect location. It is close to all the amenities and attractions Old Forge has to offer but enough of a distance where it’s peaceful. The property is very well maintained, clean, and spacious. We had 9 people stay and all had plenty of room. The kids keep asking when we will go back! Rhi was phenomenal to work with and get to know. We will definitely be returning and look forward to expanding our friendship with the owners over the years!

10 of us needed a place to stay while enjoying all that old forge has to offer. This listing was perfect, minutes from everything. Host was great, will likely rent again.

So close to everything, the house has everything you would need as if you were home. We enjoyed our stay.

Our first time visiting old forge was wonderful, including our stay at the Bears Den! The town is full of so many things to do, all within just a few minutes drive. The house was spacious and clean, and was stocked with nearly everything you may need! Check in and check out were simple, with straightforward instructions making for a stress-free stay! Communication with the host was excellent as well. I would absolutely recommend staying in the bears den!

Perfect spot close to town

The house had such charm and was perfectly located! It had all the amenities needed for an Adirondack stay! Nice and cozy for a rainy day and a great backyard with a fire pit for a night campfire. Will definitely stay again!!!!

Good spot- close to Water Safari

The location was perfect, we enjoyed our stay!

Property was as listed and hosts were great about communicating. Had a great time. Thank you.

A great spot to stay in Old Forge. The owner was very responsive and accommodating. Will definitely stay here again!

Rhi was so welcoming from the time we booked the property to the time we left! Great communication. She reached out to let us know everything was all ready to go before the stay. We had everything we needed to feel right at home. We are already planning our next stay and will definitely return ❤️ thank you guys!

We came into Old Forge for a bike race and this house was perfect for our family! Lots of space, comfort and a fire pit out back. The owners were very easy to communicate with and made it all simple and enjoyable.

This house was warm and cozy and close to town. The deer where in the yard every morning. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay. The owner responds quickly and is very nice.

The Bear's Den was very comfortable and homey. Communication with the host was excellent. She replied instantly to text messages. Highly recommend the Bear's Den to anyone!

This was a perfect location and property to enjoy our time in Old Forge.

Easy and fantastic stay

this place was great! the front porch is a wonderful place to enjoy watching people and having meals or just to hang out! Rhianna and her family are wonderful and we will definitely be staying here again.

To start with Rhi is an amazing host, Communication was fantastic and anything we needed she made available. The house was perfect, just a quick ride in the car to downtown Old Forge and the water Park. House was very clean and cozy. Next time we go up we may rent both of her homes, as they are one in front of the other. We spent a lot of time on the front porch together, didn’t get a chance to use the fire pit out back this time but it’s a nice feature. It was great having a dryer after coming home with wet towels from the park, it really felt like home❤️

Three moms and four tweens/teens stayed for two nights in late August. Plenty of room for everyone, all supplies provided, awesome front porch for coffee and relaxing, 2 minutes to the main part of town and Water Safari! We will be back-GREAT place to stay and reasonable rates! Thank you!!

Excellent

I am a D.I.Y. 'er and I also take pride in cleanliness in our own home and prioritizing maintenance issues. I also realize there is no cleaning fee w/property and my wife, and I were not impressed w/the prior rentals cleaning jobs. Well to start with downstairs the bathroom shower curtain is dirty on bottom and when you turn on the shower the water creates a vacuum and pulls the curtain on you making it impossible to keep it from hitting your body, so we opted to take our showers upstairs. Also, if your arms are five to six feet in length the toilet paper roll holder is perfect. The toilet fixture inside sticks and toilet will run continuously unless you remove back and fix. Never used microwave because it was so dirty inside. Also, garbage in both cans upon arrival and the toaster was so full of years of crumbs I ended up cleaning it thoroughly before use. Upstairs bathroom lacks a fan or does not work. There should also be disposable gloves for guests if we are expected to clean our mess and prior guests poor cleaning habits. The BBQ grill rack was so built -up w/burnt food we opted to pass on it. I also wondered why there were no pics of the refrigerator until I seen it for myself but there one in the garage is in better shape and could be a replacement. We also ended up having to purchase bedding a week prior because I was not aware we needed to supply our own sheets. The fire pit was also covered w/pine branches which may have been from previous renter as well. The price we paid to rent should not interfere with our vacation in any way and it just seems as though a lot of items should have been taken care of and inspected by the owner prior to us arriving and to replace items in need of repair.

Property was clean , inviting, and in very nice locality for events, places and visiting family

Property was in a good location for various outdoor adventures. Large enough for two families

Easy process and great big place to rent.

Wonderful Owner and wonderful stay. Close proximity to everything you want and need for a pleasant vacation experience.

Place had everything we needed for a relaxing stay in ADK! Decent location, right on the Tobie trail, minutes from downtown old forge

Very good accommodations for all ages. Suggest a new outdoor grill.
