super convenient, super cute cottage

Great location just outside of downtown Bethel. Very cute living room/kitchen area, open to a loft above. The loft has the coziest comfiest daybeds up against the window! I could have stayed there all night. The floors & stairs of this house are unusually creaky - not sure what the fix is, but if you are a light sleeper make sure no one gets up during the night!

A great place to stay for skiing at Sunday River

This was our second time staying at the Black Bear Cabin, and -- as during the last time -- it didn't disappoint. We appreciated the new HVAC system that provided for a comfortable temperature on the main levels of the house. The wood stove in the living room is great, too. The place is private and quiet, yet not far from town. The house had everything we needed. I highly recommend this rental.

Everything is Great Outdoors

My wife and I go to Bethel for the outdoor activity and the town of Bethel. Long weekend, we hiked Table Rock at Grafton Notch, stopped at the pie stand on 26 and hiked the Long Mtn Trail which is just down the road. Maura's house is very well kept and super convenient to town. Not to mention pet friendly.

Bear Cabin Getaway

We so enjoyed our stay at the Bear Cabin. Very clean and comfortable with all supplies needed for our stay. The cabin was modern with plenty of room for three adults and dog. It's close to town with many good restaurants. Maura is an excellent hostess. We look forward to returning.

Great location with all the amenities

The house is close to town and ski resorts. All the amenities we needed - kitchen was well stocked and house slept the 6 of us adults with plenty of space to spread out. We were able to enjoy the back deck on a sunny afternoon in March - quite a treat. Would definitely stay again.

Great place for Sunday River

Great cozy chalet, a pleasant 15 minute drive to Sunday River. The place was immaculate. Nicely equipped kitchen. Enjoyed wood stove in living room and gas fireplace in basement. Comfy beds. Plumbing, heating, electricity, internet all worked just fine. Driveway plowed and stairs shoveled at arrival. Just a great place all around. Would definitely book again and highly recommend!

A great place to stay for skiing at Sunday River

We had a great time staying at this cabin during our Sunday River skiing vacation this Christmas. We enjoyed spending evenings in front of the nice wood stove in the living room. The kids had fun with the game console downstairs, too. The place is private and quiet, yet not far from town. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I highly recommend this rental.
