Great rental

We really enjoyed this cabin. Very clean. We loved the view, game room and hot tub. The kitchen was well equipped to cook for our big family. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. Regarding Powder Horn: we liked the pool, gym, paddle boats and the creek. If you visit do not miss the campground area. The creek is beautiful. We enjoyed wading and swimming there. The trails in the neighborhood are not as well marked or maintained as we hoped but of course that has nothing to do with the rental. There is a trail map in the cabin which was handy. Overall good times were had by all in our group ranging from ages 6-42.

Great Host Great Home

We really enjoyed our stay at “The Bear’s Watch”. The house was very nice and well equipped for all our needs . Spectacular views off the wrap around porch on both levels (lower level was even screened in). The host was an excellent communicator. There was a lot to do right there on Powder Horn Mountain which allowed us to be able to relax more since we didn’t have to travel to have fun !

It became a morning favorite place to sip coffee and chat while looking out over the mountains.

Great get-a-way!

My family and I wanted to go on a short, weekend trip to celebrate an anniversary, a college graduation, and a birthday. This place was exactly what we were looking for! It was clean, had great amenities, and provided plenty of room for our family of six. We stayed at the cabin the entire time due to rainy weather, and it was so relaxing! The owners were awesome in accommodating us with an early check-in and a late check-out, and we are so grateful for that! We would love to stay here again in the future! Don't hesitate to book this cabin! - Robbie R.

Birthday Trip

Beautiful neighborhood and home. Well-maintained and clean. Definitely an upscale property. Be aware the master bedroom is directly below the bunk room with very little noise insulation between. Just be aware. It would not keep us from staying there again. We had a great experience.

Little Cousins’ Easter Introduction 🌷

This was a special Easter weekend. I gathered my sons together for the first time with their little boys to provide a wonderful stage for a first time introduction for these two littles during the Easter holiday. I also invited my best friend and her two granddaughters. The home was beautiful and the outdoor deck areas proved to be perfect way to keep the kids close to us. We had a wonderful time enjoying the space and each other. Thank you for a wonderful visit and perhaps we’ll see you again!!

Great family cabin

We had a fantastic family getaway for a long weekend. Our kids (12 and 9) very much enjoyed the game room and hot tub. The cabin is very clean and spacious and has pretty much everything you need to have a great time and relax. The views out the back of the cabin are absolutely perfect to enjoy a cup of coffee, or a glass of wine, or just to sit and relax.
