"We greatly enjoyed the cabin and the area. It was perfect to disconnect. The pictures don’t do justice of the cabin and the area. We enjoyed star gazing, walking on the property mowed path, lunch at the Amish store and just enjoying the birds and wildlife. "

"Check in was very easy. The cabin is beautiful and quite. We planned this trip for our grandaughter who recently graduated high-school. She enjoyed it very much ! Warm Springs Pools are just 8 minutes away. My Wife and granddaughter did the 50 min soak and both felt incredibly refreshed afterwards. There are nice restaurants near by and we drove up to the waterfall on 220 about 35 minutes away. There is lots of hiking but we don't hike. We just sat on the porch and the back deck and enjoyed the sound of nature. We also enjoyed the hummingbirds drinking from the feeder on the front porch. We would love to make a return trip in the fall to see the foliage! "

"Charming and restorative stay at a historic inn. Great service!"

"We enjoyed our time at the Bears Den. We were looking to escape and relax and that was easily done here. A few notes: we were short on the number of bath towels initially but found the extra bath towels in the dryer. Unfortunately they had sat wet in the dryer and were musty-requiring washing before being used.The kitchen was well stocked with cooking items for the most part but there were no pot holders which would have come in handy with the countertop oven—there was only one dish towel. The trash bins were extremely full when we arrived making it difficult to add our bag in when needed. Finally, the selection of sheets for sofa bed was limited to two flat sheets and no full sheet. There was an abundance of extra pillows but only one extra pillow case. "

"Good value "

"Amazing facility located in a beautiful place..."

"This was our first stay at a bed and breakfast and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. The owners are friendly, helpful, and attentive. Our room was lovely and we slept well. Breakfast each morning was delicious. The property was next to the Homestead so it's an easy walk if you book activities through the resort. We would definitely stay here again if we return to the area."
