My family rents every year for a spring ski vacation. This is one of the best properties we have ever stayed at. We are a family of 8 and the house was absolutely amazing. The layout is very spacious and fit all of us perfectly. The location is great. Close to everything and the views are fabulous. House had everything needed for cooking. The rooms spacious and beds incredibly comfortable. We had one of the best stays in this beautiful home.

The best we’be stayed in Beaver Creek!

Such an expansive floor plan, and stocked with everything we could ask for; we can tell the owners put careful thought into the needs for any age range of family members. The location is just a hop / skip from the ski resorts, which was also very convenient!We hope to stay here again should we be in the area!Chris

Beautiful property with everything you need to enjoy the stay.

Best accomodation we have enjoyed off the mountain in Beaver Creek - Vail area. Great layout for extended families with children and adults to enjoy. A few stairs to access the house from the garage, but undercover and dry. Highly recommended.

The most meticulously appointed rental I've ever been in

This property was absolutely excellent. They thought of everything when stocking it. The sleeping spaces where great and very comfortable. The group spaces were very large so that you never felt like you were on top of each other and cleaniness was top notch. The only item I would note is that if you are mobility limited, there are several steps to climb to enter the unit.

Charming home overlooking Eagle-Vail

We had a wonderful stay with kids and grandkids. All 8 of us had plenty of room to spread out and relax. This home is very well appointed and beautifully decorated. Comfy beds and very large kitchen. Super convenient to Vail Village and Avon whitewater on the Eagle River. Less than an hours drive to Breckinridge and Copper Mountain. Also close to Vail Pass for super cool downhill biking. We really enjoyed our 9 day stay and hope to return!

Great family gathering!

The spacious, open-floor-plan home was wonderful for gathering as a family! Our four adult children, spouses and 2 grandchildren spent the week skiing Vail and Beaver Creek, and exploring the local shops. Family meals were enjoyed at the large dining table and evenings were spent together in the large family room by the gas fireplace and in the hot tub. Plenty of comfortable beds and bathrooms for everyone! The kitchen was well appointed, and among other amenities included were three pack and play cribs and a nice stroller, which were very convenient when traveling with children! We highly recommend this beautiful property for a family trip!

Spring Break 2025

Incredible, sprawling estate of a property with views galore. Simply magical. Tons of space. Best stocked property we’ve ever stayed at (kitchen, baby accessories, games, and much much more). Only consideration is the stairs to get in and then the three stories once inside. So be prepared there. Also, garage wont clear an SUV with ski rack, so had to park outside. Regardless, it’s well worth the climb! Great, responsive hosts as well.

Wonderful Property

This property is outstanding in all respects. The house is fully furnished with everything you may need. The views are spectacular, there is a heated garage with garage door opener for your car and the concrete driveway is heated so no worries regarding snow & ice. In addition there is a new hot tub on the deck along with barbecue grill. Inside the kitchen is spacious with granite countertops, barstool seating and a spectacular view of the mountain tops and valley below from the large window at the kitchen sink. Abutting the kitchen is the great room with bar, large gas stone fireplace and custom made dinning room table. There are 5 bedrooms and the upper master bedroom is spacious, includes a hot tub and access to deck areas front and rear. The house is perfectly situated within minutes of Vail village, Beaver Creek nearby restaurants and shopping to meet your needs. Our family has stayed at this property a number of times both in winter and summer and we are looking forward to coming back again next year. If you choose to stay at this wonderful property you will not be disappointed.

Wonderful stay at The Bear's Den. Perfect for large or multiple family stays.

We had 2 families with a total of 11 people staying over New Year's week, and this lovely home was perfect for all of us. 1st floor has 3 bedrooms, including a room with bunks, that can sleep 7. There is a large TV and a foosball table here as well. 2nd floor had an amazing communal open area with gourmet kitchen, bar, dining area, and family room, as well as a large 6-8 person hot tub and grill on the deck with marvelous views of the mountains. 3rd floor had the master suite and bathroom with an adjacent 5th bedroom, although this bedroom has no doors to separate from the master. This was perfect for our family, though might not be suitable if trying to fit 2 couples if you need privacy. All in all, this is a tastefully decorated mountain home. The only negatives are that the garage is detached, though heated, at street level and you have to walk up 2 flights of stairs to get to the "1st floor." This could be an issue for elderly folks. Location is convenient as drive to Vail and Beaver Creek was an easy 10-15 minutes. We would definitely stay here again.

Glad you had a great time. You are right about the stairs and I try to find out if that will be a problem esp with summer renters that may come with a wedding group. Ski groups usually can handle the stairs. I tried to find a place to put an elevator but could not find a place without taking room out of the garage which is not overly large to begin with. Please come again

8/10 Good

Great for a Big Family

We arrived easily at night following the directions given. Everything lit up as we approached the detached garage. We carried all of our luggage up a huge, outdoor staircase, which led us to the bottom level of the house. The house was beautiful, just like the pictures portray. The great room is magnificent as was the outdoor hot tub. The kitchen is far better stocked than I was lead to believe, as there is a veritable cornucopia of leftover dry foods. The master bedroom has a white carpet, which terrified me as I was traveling with 2 small, very active boys. Bill was a pleasure to deal with and I only needed to contact the him once during our stay but every time we spoke, he was always pleasant, considerate, and knowledgeable. Overall the house gets a 4/5, beautiful, large, well furnished, modern and spacious and really only loses a point because of the unending stairs from the outside and up 2 more stories inside to the master. I would definitely recommend the house to a large family or 2 families. Just watch out for grandma and grandpa negotiating those stairs.

Hi Glad your group had a good time. I spent a lot of time trying to figure where I could put an elevator in, but in the end no practical ideas came up. My dad was skiing and handling those stairs at 85. I do try to make sure that will not be a problem for new groups. I like providing a well stock kitchen and bath supplies. I have rented before where there are no supplies not even salt and pepper. It is not that hard or expensive to supply most cooking accessories. Hope you can come again some season.

Beautiful Home

The house was lovely and well equipped. Owner very responsive. The stairs were way too much for us. 27 to front door, another 14 to kitchen and not sure how many to third floor. All extremely steep steps and not suitable for the very old or very young. An elevator would be a huge help. The house was so nice, just not accessible for lots of people.

Vail Summer Getaway!

The property was an excellent choice for our family! Wonderful views from all rooms. Can’t say enough about how well stocked the whole house was! Loved seeing mule deer, chipmunks, etc. outside the cabin. Great place for family fun! Lots of steps but we are all in much better shape than when we arrived. We are normally beach people and this was a great change for us, would definitely recommend!!!
