Lazy Bear Den
My family and I stayed at Lazy Bear Den and absolutely loved it. The house was as described and had everything we needed. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, etc. There was nothing we needed that was not there. The property is beautiful and we loved all the wildlife. We especially enjoyed the cozy wood burning stove in the evenings! And my dog enjoyed frolicking in the snow in the back yard. I had a problem with the code for door lock when we initially arrived. I called the property owner who immediatly answered and helped us with code. I would highly recommend Lazy Bear Den. You won't be disappointed!

Nice place to hang out
The home was clean, comfortable, and well furnished. Really loved the variety of games, from boardgames to darts to a pool table. One of the highlights for us was sitting in front of the woodstove at night. Very quiet at night.

Overall review
Overall everything was very pleasant at the lazy bear den and we enjoyed our time there. Close enough to all towns for any essentials, but secluded enough to enjoy the outdoors and area away from the hustle and bustle. The beds were comfortable and the place was clean and well kept. If there was one thing I could give some slightly negative feedback on it’s the outside/porch area. It was not lit at all with any lighting and it was hard to see the steps and front door at night. But other than that everything was great! Would recommend or stay there again!
