Honestly exceeded ALL expectations. Extremely comfortable, well-furnished & decorated, & so peaceful. Like an oasis in the desert. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Absolutely wonderful experience!
The Bears Den was incredible. Michelle is an amazing g host and the apartment was clean and very supplied. The property was also beautiful and relaxing. Amazing price and close to Mesa Verde. Would definitely stay again!
This stay is very close to lots of attractions. Michelle was very helpful with giving us ideas on other things to do. Mesa Verde National Park is very close along with other hiking trails. Michelle is a wealth of knowledge. Not only did we have a great stay, we were able to ask questions and get great knowledge on the area. Would definitly stay again.
My partner and I stayed for two nights in this marvelous place. We wish we could have stayed much longer. The room is extremely comfortable, furnished in three sections: bedroom, kitchen area with table, and sitting area with two couches and tv. All were well-equipped with everything you might needāfrom extra blankets to dvds and even seltzer in the fridge. And Michelle was beyond warm and welcoming! Will definitely be back!
We visited the Mesa Verde National Park, drove many scenic drives in the area, rode the Durango to Silverton Railway, shopped with the many businesses in the area, and very much enjoyed our stay at Bears Den Studio. It was comfortable, clean, and had anything you might need. The bed is very comfortable. Michelle is very kind and helpful. She suggested scenic drives and was always quick in responding to questions via message. I love her decorum both inside and outside the home. Our stay at Michelleās Bears Den Studio was a very good decision.
The bears den was clean and comfortable. The owner was on site and I enjoyed talking to her and hear her insights on the area. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.
The property was well maintained and Michelle was a vey thoughtful and generous host. Our car broke down while we were pasing through town and she was very accomodating and helpful. Would 100% recomend this place for any needs. The property is gorgeous as well.
This large studio was perfect for my partner and myself. With a microwave, toaster oven & electric frying pan and tons of kitchen ware itās easy to do some meals at home if youād prefer. The furnishings were very eclectic and comfortable. Very clean and well managed. Would definitely stay here again.
We stayed in the Bears Den twice, enroute to and from Colorado. Itās very comfortable and well stocked, and out of town a ways, which we appreciate. Michelle is a gracious hostess who takes good care of her property. There are 2 other vacation rentals on the property in separate buildings; this unit is in the lower level of the main house, but has its own patio. A very pleasant place to stay!
It's the owner of course. How they care for the property, how they communicate, the little touches that make a place feel homey. Well the Bears Den hits a home run. A perfect 10 for Michelle. Outstanding communication, a wonderful, quiet, peaceful place, with so many touches to make you feel at home. Amazingly clean and sanitized against Covid. Away from the hustle and bustle, it's a place to relax and explore the area. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you, Michelle.
The host was wonderful and the place had such beautiful views if I ever go back to that area I will happy to return. I felt as though I was in Mesa Verde
This place was perfect for our trip. The owner was so helpful and has the place stocked if you forget something. Highly recommend. Clean and has a touch of charm!
Thanks for accommodating our additional requests. Beer den is very nice cozy studio that has everything you may need for your short/long stay. I liked it very much.
