Baldy Bear

The house and location was great. But when we arrived at 4 pm. It was still being cleaned. The draws in the dresser just fall out. Not usable. KItchen has missing floor boards covered by a dirty rug. Has a few throw blankets but were gross. One of the bed in the loft had a broken beam. And the absolute worst was the fireplace. Which is needed to warm the house. Really crappy fireplace. Instructions were read and reread and we could never get the wood to burn. Very very disappointed. No point in having a fireplace. Oh snd even trying to wash dishes in sink almost impossible with the drizzle that comes out. Refrigerator draws all. Broken Draws and no shelf racks on the door.

lovely cabin in the mountains

The location was great deep in the woods high up a mountainside. Just be careful in the winter when it snows. You'd better have a four-wheel drive. Once there, you have a warm log cabin with a super fireplace, floor heating, and an outdoor hottube that is just thing after skiing.

Not a good fit

After much thought, my husband and I would give this a 3 out of 5. It was not a good foot for our family and we would discourage those with kids under age 3 or those uncomfortable starting and maintaining a wood-burning fire from renting it. The biggest concern we had was the heating. It was in the single digits while we were there and the main level would not get above ~62 during the morning and evening (sometimes lower). It was brutal for our infant who was crawling/walking on the floor (and us as well...we stayed in our ski jackets/pants). When we asked management if the heater was broken, we were then told to maintain heat in the house during these temperatures, we must light a fire. With a small child, this is not safe, and had we known this we would have stayed elsewhere. There was a radiator that we could use, but again, safety concern. The house also said it was "stocked for full capacity." However, there were only 5 fire starters (which we quickly used after the baby went to sleep in an attempt to warm up, but definitely wouldn't last for all day & night for a full week) and 2 shampoo and conditioner bottles (the super small ones from a hotel). So we rationed heat even more and dealt with helmet hair. We brought our 4W drive car with us and the snow was plowed on our street one morning, but it created a snow drift at the driveway entrance which our car got stuck on and we spent 30 minutes digging out of it. Although the beds state they are queens, they are the smallest queens I've ever slept on. Lastly, there was a leak in the ceiling on our second night. Dripped for about 12 hours pretty steadily. We called management right when it happened but were told they wouldn't get to it until first thing the next morning. By 9am the next morning no one was there yet and when we called they were unaware of the urgency. After talking longer, they mentioned the leak was there a few days before and it was just an ice dam on the roof that needed to be chipped off. As an owner, I would be upset about a leak not addressed more promptly. As a renter, it was really frustrating to be dealing with calling/scheduling maintenance while on vacation and sleeping with the constant "drip drip." Overall, this would have been a good fit for some college or graduate students who want to pack into a house and have the freedom to be able to cook and use a fireplace and have a hot tub. However, this was not a good fit at all for a family with a small child.

The Cabin of Our Dreams...

Everything stated in the description of this property is right on. If you're looking for a secluded cabin (only one neighbor within shouting distance), with everything you need, this is pretty much it. This property is a true log cabin but upgraded for comfort. As stated, it backs up to a national forest, so the views are incredible. We cooked all our own meals and the kitchen provided almost everything we needed. I say almost, because the only thing missing was a pair of tongs (or maybe we just couldn't find them) and a good-quality knife. Understandable about the knife as who wants to donate a high-quality knife to be misused? That said, just about every type of pot and/or pan is provided, plus a wide variety of spices as well. And there is a knife that is serviceable. Just make sure you bring cooking oils etc., if you plan to cook like we did. Again, understandable that condiments aren't provided as even oils go bad and it becomes a liability issue for homeowners. The hot tub for this property is outstanding and probably the finest we've ever encountered at a VRBO. Additionally, there is a beautiful stone hearth fireplace with ample firewood supplied. We did have issues following the directions for using the fireplace which had a rather unique damper system, and resulted in quite a bit of smoke accumulating in the cabin. The management company sent someone up to help almost immediately, but neither he nor I could determine what the issue was. Alpine Meadows is going to talk to the owners to verify the directions are indeed correct. One final thing: although the description states the beds are all queen-size, we found them to be rather small for queens, so we ended up sleeping separately in the two queens upstairs. This was a small price to pay for staying in this beautifully appointed cabin in such an incredible location. We had a wonderful time in this stunning cabin and will definitely return. In fact, we loved it so much I was hesitant to give it such a good review because we'd rather keep it a secret! By the way, Hannah at Alpine Meadows was an absolute joy to work with. She was incredibly responsive and always available to answer any and all questions. Thank you Hannah! Dave & Barb

It was a nice house away and close enough to town.

The property was nice in a great location. The house had everything we needed. The only thing I would recommend is making sure the exterior of the property looks like the photos with nicely trimmed entrance and patio area, area was overgrown and a little difficult with short-legged dogs. We enjoyed our stay.

Amazing

We were very happy with our mini vacation in Breckenridge and the cabin that we choose online. It was immaculate and perfect for us. After a medical emergency in 2021 they let us transfer the reservation to 2022 which was wonderful for us. Thank you for sharing your beautiful mountain home with us. Andy and Donna Sands

Secluded mountain getaway

Snowed almost 3ft while we were there and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Although we lost a pair of sandals trying to get to the hot tub, sorry about that! Great cabin in the woods, the perfect mountain getaway.

Baldy Bear is the Perfect Mountain Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property had everything described and more. We stayed at the cabin for 9 nights encompassing Christmas 2021. The property was clean and well maintained. There was plenty of sheets, towels, and firewood, and the kitchen is fully stocked with all the tools needed to cook - just supply your own groceries. There was a drawer full of seasonings that guests have left and was a nice surprise (we added to the collection). You'll want to buy your own paper towels and toilet paper as the stuff supplied in the cabin was very poor quality. Alpine Meadows was the company managing the property and they were very nice/helpful. There are 2 bedrooms plus an upstairs area with another bed + pull out bed. Overall there were 4 mattresses - 1 queen, 2 full-sized, + the pull out bed. We let my parents have the queen bed, and by the end of the stay my wife and I were about ready to knock each other off the full-sized mattress we were on. If you need one or more big beds, unfortunately you'll have to look elsewhere. The hot tub was nice and warm, but when you turned on the jets, it would blow cold air and drop the water temperature too low. We would use it without the jets and it was just fine. You will absolutely need 4-wheel or all-wheel drive if you visit here in the winter. If you're going skiing, you're closest to Peak 9. The Maggie is at the base of Peak 9, and you can pick up your equipment rentals and lift tickets there. Parking fills up fast, so get there early. This was a trip my family and I will remember forever, and the amazing-ness of the cabin is a huge reason for that. Highly recommend.

One morning we woke up and the coffee pot wasn't working. Within an hour we had a brand new pot sitting on the porch! We came to ski and were just minutes from the slopes. We will definitely be back to this cozy cabin!

Great experience

Our family of four had a great five day stay here. The house was very clean and well kept. The hot tub was amazing and the fireplace kept the house very warm throughout our stay. It was great being just a couple minutes away from main street Breckenridge while still feeling so secluded. There's a trail head to hike through the national forest at the end of the street that the home is located on which made for great hiking. Overall it's a great place to stay, relax, take in the amazing scenery, and have access to hiking just minutes away. Would definitely stay here again.

What a beautiful get away!

We had a beautiful summer week at Baldy Bear! The cabin is a perfect distance away from Breckenridge so that you feel remote, in the woods, but close enough to go into town for some shopping or a nice restaurant. There is a hiking trail that you can walk to from the cabin and we went every morning. We saw a Mama Moose and her 2 babies! The hot tub was the perfect end to a day of hiking. We had a fox visit almost everyday and we named her Penny. Overall, a magical week in the mountains! We would love to stay there again.

Real mountain location

This cabin is located off of Boreas Pass Road, in a quiet neighborhood. It backs up to a meadow and National Forest, and is really private and secluded. If you are looking to feel like you are in the mountains but minutes from town, this is a great location. The cabin is great - spacious, fully equipped kitchen, hot tub that looks out into the meadow. Other reviews mentioned, but the entire back of the cabin is windows and looks out into the meadow. This view/location was undersold in the description. The cabin is also at 10,000 feet elevation. We live in the Front Range, frequently go to Breckenridge, but after a week really struggled with the elevation - be aware when you book.
