About this property
Black Bear Lodge - Home with Panoramic Mountain Views!
Welcome to Black Bear Lodge — where the earth meets the sky, the eagles soar, and the stars feel endless. Perched in beautiful Sapphire Valley, this spacious 6-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom home offers stunning views and room for the whole family to relax and unwind.
The main level features two primary suites, each with king beds, while a third king suite is located on the second floor. Also upstairs, you'll find a cozy den with a TV, a queen bedroom with an en-suite bath, and a full bedroom with its own private bath. The top floor is perfect for kids, offering two twin beds with trundles and plenty of space to play.
The well-equipped kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a bar that seats three — perfect for casual breakfasts or evening conversations. The laundry room is conveniently located just off the kitchen.
The living room invites you to gather around the stone fireplace, with plenty of seating and large windows framing the scenic mountain view. You'll also find a wet bar with a mini fridge and a TV, making it an ideal space for entertaining.
Step outside onto the deck and enjoy meals at the outdoor dining table, surrounded by the beauty of the mountains.
