So Comfy and Cozy

My family and I really enjoyed our weekend at Mama Bear's Cottage. We felt safe, slept comfortably, and enjoyed the cabin's location. The cabin was clean, cozy, and well-stocked. We loved the fact that it was close to restaurants, shopping, and most of all, close to the beautiful lake! Definitely would visit again!

We really liked the location. It was close to town and the activities that we had planned. Nice fenced yard for our pet. Home has a mountain house feel to it. It’s not super updated but comfy. My only complaint was that it was advertised for having a barbecue, but there was no grill. When we are together as a family, grilling is part of what we do so we were disappointed about not having one. overall nice stay!
