Perfect for a large family group

We had the best time - house was clean, plenty of space for three families with toddlers. Basement was awesome for hanging out with the kids, location was easy! The host was thorough and super accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Childhood Friends Ski Getaway

From the initial booking process to the day of checkout, everything experienced at this home was 5 star! The house was everything we could have asked for and more, was able to sleep 12 adults comfortably with great living spaces, kitchen and basement, and allowed us to feel at home! We all debated buying the home from the hosts multiple times throughout the trip due to how homey and lovely the house was lol! Definitely saving the location and booking again in the future!

Perfect ski house getaway

We were 2 families that rented this house and loved everything about it. There is plenty of space for the kids and adults to spread out with the most comfortable beds we have ever had in a rental house. The living room upstairs has a large sectional couch that we could all fit on for watching movies and the snow fall through the beautiful floor to ceiling windows. The downstairs living room had a lot of space for the kids to play games and watch movies. The access to the Moover shuttle was perfect and the house was well stocked with everything we could need. It was a very clean house and the hosts were so helpful and responsive. We would absolutely rent this house again for our next ski trip to Mount Snow.

Mount Snows best value

This was my first time using VRBO The host was very communicative and put any fears at ease. We had 2.5 couples and 5 kids. We still had room. We didn’t even use the basement bedroom(s) A great 3 day 2 night get away. The house has anything you need for cooking, cleaning, bathing…. Also tons of games, puzzles and more The house has a great vibe as a ski chalet The shuttle to the mountain is at the end of the driveway and very convenient for this with children A perfect place, host and location for a good value. We will definitely be back! Thank you Will for hosting us The host

Perfect Mt. Snow house for a medium/large size group

We are repeat guests at the Bears Den Chalet. The house comfortably slept our group of 12 adults, with each couple getting their own room. There's plenty of space to spread out with two living rooms on the first and lower floor. For the skiers/boarders in our group, the Moover shuttle conveniently picks-up at the bottom of the driveway and drops-off at Mt. Snow base lodge. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking equipment and there's a natural gas grill on the back deck. For those not looking to cook, there are plenty of great restaurants between Mt. Snow and Wilmington, only 10min down the road. The owner, Will, is super responsive and provides a house guide app that is extremely helpful and well thought out. Looking forward to booking again for next season!

Perfect cozy ski house for families

We loved our stay here! The place was perfect for 3 families. Cozy living room upstairs and kids setup downstairs. Lots of bedrooms - all comfortable and clean. Best part was the shuttle to Mt Snow and especially the ski trail home, made it so easy with a group of teens. Dry well stocked kitchen and excellent communication with host. Would love to stay here again!

Perfect Ski House!

The house was a perfect fit for our group of 11. The location is excellent. We used the Moover to get to the mountain. Easy location for quick trips to the market. The house itself has been maintained and has lots of personal touches. We had all of the dishes, cookware, dish soap, etc to make meals. We appreciated the wireless chargers in bedrooms, nice hand soaps, plenty of bath towels and tissues. The host provided prompt communication and an informative guide to the house. Would definitely stay here again!

Ski Trip for Grooms to Be

We stayed at bears den for a ski weekend to celebrate our grooms to be. The house was awesome. Perfect and comfortable for 12 guests. There was plenty of room to spread out and not disturb guests who went to bed a little earlier than the rest. The shuttle to mt snow picks you up right at the bottom of the driveway and ropa you off just the same. It was incredible. Will was super responsive and attentive. The hosts helped me with restaurant recommendations and also helped connect me with a private chef (nomad chefs) that came to the house one night. Cannot recommend this place enough. Perfect for cozy winter storm and plenty of games to occupy. We will return!

Annual ski trip with friends

We had such a fun weekend! The house was so cozy and easily accommodated the 12 of us (6 couples). The home owners provided great communication, answered any questions and shared helpful information throughout the weekend. We enjoyed being able to cook, we brought food for most meals. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The shuttle to the mountain was an added bonus and the ski home trail from the mountain was a hit! Thank you again!

Great Father/Son Ski Trip

Bears Den Chalet was the perfect place for our stay. The house has an excellent layout, with very comfortable common space and full kitchen, as well as many nice bedrooms for group living. Everything was in great order, from the ski room when you first enter to the multi-level living space and bedoroms/loft. And quick straight shot to Mt. Snow. Great choice!

Memorable Fall Trip

I found this rental very last minute, looking for a comfortable place that would house 10 of us. Thinking our options were limited, we were incredibly lucky to find this place. Not only was Will perfectly communicative, every part of booking/check-in was easy. Even though there were issues with the main floor heater, Will helped us navigate that. The immaculate vibes of the house in the midst of peak fall was amazing, and we almost extended our stay.
