About the host
Hosted by Steve
Hello I am Steven and I would like to welcome you to my happy place. Bear Den Cottage was created to share with guests the wonders of this great area and the peace that it has brought us. Our goal is for you to reconnect with the outdoors and breath in the spirit of the lake region.
Why they chose this property
I started enjoying the outdoors through tent camping and overlanding. Over the years I upsized to a camper and was introduced to the Lake Wallenpaupack area by wonderful friends who are now our extended lake family.
What makes this property unique
It is my pleasure to offer this cottage to you and to share the experience of the property which offers the best of the outdoors and convenience of downtown.
