The only thing better than the pictures & description is the actual experience! From the moment you open the door, the owner's attention to detail, commitment to cleanliness and knack for including everything you need (and more) is evident. Close to many outdoor activities. An easy drive to the mountain(s). From relaxing by the fire to enjoying table tennis/pool/video games/air hockey/cards -- Pine Bear met every need of family from 6 to 72. And when a few of the crew decided sub-freezing temps would not prevent a dip in the hot tub -- we found the owners had pre-heated the water!
