Winter Getaway
Donna's place was great. Felt secluded, yet close to things needed. The fireplace was fantastic, as well as having access to the snowshoeing gear to enjoy the trails behind the house. Responsive and detailed communication, and smooth check-in and out processes.

Great Snowy Weekend Getaway
Great little place in the mountains for our snowy weekend. We booked this place over the MLK holiday weekend and was anticipating nearly 8-12" of snow. The owners were both very responsive during 0 degree hot water issues. It was the most picturesque snowy weekend near the cozy warm woodburning stove. We used the house snowshoes to romp around the snow. We had great memories in this place and would love to visit again!

This cabin was the perfect quiet getaway! My partner and I needed a break from work and regular life, and this lovely spot in the mountains was a great choice. The internet may have been slower than we’re used to, but it worked fine for being way out in the woods. The views were gorgeous, and an easy drive into Nederland - such friendly people - gave us access to any supplies we needed. We’d definitely come back to Dancing Bear, and happily recommend it to friends!

Great Location and Cozy Cabin
We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was neat and clean and provided a great base for our adventure in Colorado. The host was responsive but not intrusive. We would stay again for sure. We loved seeing the Moose mom with her calf several times in the community.

Mountain Get Away
I normally don't write reviews or surveys but in this case I need to chime in. The cabin was very clean with a great location. It exceeded my exceptions by far. The hosts are some of the nicest folks I have ever had the pleasure to speak with. One of the best vacations I have ever had and the cabin was just so nice. If you are wanting to stay somewhere in the mountains and you do not give this place a try-I think you made a mistake. I hope to go back again !

We can’t wait to return
Spending 4-5 days at Bear Cabin each summer has become a family tradition, one that we look forward to throughout the year. The location is perfect—hiking trails from the back yard, short distance from Golden Gate Canyon Park, many other wonderful hiking trails, and close enough to Nederland for a trip into town. The cabin is well appointed and welcoming and the host is always responsive. Frankly, I just can’t say enough good things about Bear Cabin. We love it!!
