This beautiful secluded cabin in the woods was the perfect weekend get away! Tina was a great host!

It has always been a dream of mine to spend Christmas in a cabin in Vermont. My wish came true and it was better than I could’ve ever expected. Bear cub cabin was magical. It snowed every day, just a little, but it made everything beautiful. The cabin was cozy and charming and the attention to detail was impeccable. We have already made a reservation to return in 2023.

We stayed for 3 nights for a family wedding at Notch House, which was about 20 minutes away and Bear Cub Cabin was perfect for our needs! The gas wood stove was easy to turn on in the evenings for reading and lounging fireside. Coffee on the upper balcony in the morning before hiking Mt Pisgah(20 mins away and highly recommend!) was an excellent start to the day. The sheets and towels were fresh and soft, the cabin very clean, and we loved the original art and special touches. We greatly appreciate that Tina would share her beautiful cabin with us, and we would absolutely come back if travels take us back to northern Vermont.

We couldn't have been more pleased or Blessed with our stay. The cabin and surrounding property are beautiful. Everywhere you look and throughout our travels in the surrounding community the vistas were stunning. We are so looking forward to our next visit.

Just as we hoped, the cabin provided peace and quiet. Close to great trails for hiking and great lakes for swimming. We enjoyed morning coffee on the front porch and on the upstair deck as well. Highly recommend!

We had a great, relaxing time at the cabin. It was very comfortable, clean, and easy to find. The views in the area were wonderful. Really does feel like a sanctuary, as it says in the property description. Would recommend to anyone

My daughter and her girlfriend loved their week away - hiked, played cards, did day trips. Rested. Thank you!

We had a marvelous time at this well-built, well-appointed, well-kept cabin in the woods of the northeast kingdom in Vermont. Highly recommend!

The cabin was the perfect little getaway for the weekend. The host was very helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay again.

We didn't hear a sound all weekend. The cabin was so cozy, beautiful wood stove, and all that you need for a peaceful get away. Our most relaxing weekend so far this year, we had a great stay, and hope to be back to experience it again in a different season. Thanks again!!

Much care has been taken with the décor of this cabin, and it looks like a yoga studio/art gallery/antique shop. The host was responsive during the approach to our stay and helped us add a day prior to our arrival. However, it was an uncomfortable place to stay. This is the first rental we left early (partly due to weather). Host did refund our last day rent after our early departure. Smoky smell - The cabin has two heat sources, a gas fired furnace in the corner of the first floor and a woodstove on the first floor. We observed that when the furnace was running, air was being pulled out of the woodstove into the room. This happens even if the dampers (all three) are closed shut. The woodstove needs repair to gaskets to stop this because the furnace pulls combustion air from the interior and thus pulls smoky smelling chimney air down the fireplace EVEN IF YOU DON'T USE THE wood stove. An outside combustion air supply for the furnace would help with this and would improve the cabin comfort level. Smoky woodstove - Good instructions were provided for operating the stove, the stove was clean and free of ash in the firebox however, If you do light the stove, the room fills with smoke, because stove is not sealed properly. Spiral staircase - The bed is comfortable (and high), but it's up an incredibly narrow spiral staircase. This is mentioned in the property description so know that if you are heavy or at all compromised in mobility and agility, you will have trouble with this staircase! The staircase separates the bedroom from the bathroom and kitchen/living area, so any late-night trips to the bathroom are up and down this staircase. The gas fired furnace is LOUD regardless and disturbed our sleep. Kitchen has basic equipment. Note, as indicated in the cabin description, there is only a stove top percolator for making coffee, bring instant if you don't want to learn to use that. Driveway was plowed on arrival. However, at the end it became a sheet of ice due to freeze/thaw weather. We requested that the driveway be sanded a couple times on our last day but it wasn’t done by the time we left (after noon). The sand and plow truck had mechanical issues. Getting out took our AWD vehicle, our emergency sand and decades of snowbelt/backwoods driving experience. The couch was uncomfortable and worse as a pullout bed. Furnishings-attractive but generally uncomfortable for persons of average size.

First off, I would like to apologize for taking a while to write this review. Bear Cub was just an amazing place to be. Everything was perfect down to the decor. We will definitely be staying again in the near future. Thank you, Tina for renting us this place. We met some new friends as well (Chris and Cindy). We had a great time talking to the both of you and will continue to keep in touch. I am looking for property as we speak in this AWESOME area! Once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

Loved the solitude and quiet of Bear Cub Cabin for some creative space and rest.

There are absolutely no words that could describe how remarkable this little cabin is. Down to every little detail, every little picture, every aspect of serenity. A great place for my wife and I to explore and unwind. Communication with Tina was amazing as well. Will definitely return again in the near future. Thank you.

This cabin is literally a breath of fresh air. Set back in a wooded lot, the air smells like maple (or maybe that was my mind playing tricks on me) with a hint of wood smoke. Exactly like fall. We enjoyed sitting in the deck and just listening to the quiet. It was rejuvenating. The property is exactly as described: comfy, romantic, well stocked in kitchen wares, and a commune with nature. The property owner is kind and helpful. Overall, an A+ experience. I can’t wait to go back!

We spent the week in this beautiful, tastefully furnished and comfortable cabin nestled in the woods. Surrounded by lakes and mountains, we could hear loons from the cabin and coyotes yipping at night! We kayaked and hiked every day. If you enjoy the outdoors and a peaceful, serene setting, you will love visiting this area! The bed was super comfortable with a foam mattress topper and lots of pillows. The cabin was well appointed with everything you could need: books and games, appliances and cooking utensils, even paper and colored pencils. The owners are super friendly and very accommodating. We would definitely come back!!

Beautiful and peaceful place! Property as described. Would highly recommend it!

This bear cabin was a magical, mysterious place filled with many curiosities and secrets to be found and told! We enjoyed every moment inside the cabin and didn’t want to leave! It was so cozy and comfy and yet calming and soothing at the same time. It felt like it was made just for us and we can’t wait to go back. It is the perfect little weekend getaway cabin for you and your loved ones!
