Black Bear Cabin-Hot tub, Pet friendly, Riverfront

Spend your days either fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, hiking, or trail riding and your nights relaxing in the hot tub. This amazing log home sits on a quiet dirt road and offers a king sized bed in the loft, queen bed in the main floor bedroom, a king bed down stairs and a pull out queen sleeper sofa in the lower level walkout basement. There is a large deck with a gas grill for entertaining. The garage is not available for guest use and there are a couple locked closets for owner use.

The hot tub is open all year round. We provide beach towels and flip flops for the hot tub. We also provide all bed linens and bath towels. The kitchen comes fully stocked with all cooking utensils, seasonings, oils and paper towel. There is a regular coffee pot and a Keurig. We provide Folgers coffee and a variety of K cups as well as cream and sugar. There is a dishwasher with detergent. In the bathrooms we have shampoo, conditioner and body wash. For your entertainment, we have lots of games for all ages, regular playing cards, giant Uno and Checkers. There is a Wii with multiple games and DVDs. We have smart Roku TVs, and have Star Link for our internet provider. Outside, there is corn hole, a fire pit down by the river and seating both on the deck and below the deck. We do not provide firewood for the fire pit outside. There is a washer and dryer and there will be one tide pod for every night booked. The indoor fireplace is not available for guest use.

The city of Baldwin is about 10 minutes from the cabin. They have a couple grocery stores, a Dollar General, Family dollar and quite a few mom and pops restaurants and several bars. There are also a couple of ice cream shops.

We have stayed at quite a few rentals over the years and absolutely loved staying here. It was so clean, had comfy beds/sheets, kitchen was well stocked and the property was beautiful. It felt like we were living in the trees and we absolutely loved our time.

We were thoroughly impressed with the upscale cabin with wonderful amenities including a top of the line hot-tub! The host, Nina was very easy to communicate with and she went above and beyond to make sure that our stay was comfortable! They also had a tasteful assortment of K-Cups for their Keurig! Felt right at home! Thank you!

Black bear lodge

We absolutely loved this cabin. Has all the amenities of a comfortable cozy house, bakeware, ample pots & pans and an awesome coffee maker. The beds were ridiculously comfortable. The hot tub was a welcome oasis to relax in. Smart TVs, in every room and tons of games for the family to play. We would love to come back in the warmer months.

Beautiful, peaceful cabin in the woods

This cabin was perfect for our family get away. Our group was made up of 6 adults and we were all comfortable. We had space to be separate and quiet or come together and play games, have fires and enjoy meals together. Our host, Nina was fantastic - available and helpful. We had an amazing time. Everyone in the group said it was the best vacation!

Good Time

This cabin was a great size for our family of 5 to stay for a long weekend. Everything was as described. My kids liked the checkers and mini corn hole games downstairs. The fire pit by the river was a nice spot to hang out for an evening. It was easy to locate and not to far from town if you needed to run for any groceries or dinner option.

Winter Getaway

Delightful and relaxing time. The house was very clean and the kitchen well stocked. Multiple TVs meant that those who wanted to watch the football games and those that wanted to watch movies were both satisfied. Sitting in the hot tub looking at the stars on a cold winter night is a wonderful experience. Enjoyed our stay very much

Great place to stay

Our stay included 5 adults and 4 nights. What a great place to stay. Beautifully done home from the furnishing to the amenities. I can’t think of one thing they could have done better. Plenty of seating and space on the decks, well stocked kitchen and the hot tub was fantastic. Appreciated the detailed instructions and communication. Far exceeded expectations.

Perfect Indeed

The beautiful property depicted is what we got, and it was positively stocked with all accessories and toiletries necessary. We were in touch with Nina as necessary and she responded as quickly as possible to our messages. The only problem we had --we did not book 4 days instead of 2 days, you guessed it-we did not want to leave. Thanks Nina for the opportunity to stay at your property and its on our to do again list. back to iur dream stay at Nina
