Mountainside Log Chalet at Fernie Alpine Resort

This beautiful log chalet is located just a few minutes walk to the ski lifts of Fernie Alpine Resort with ski to the door convenience. Log beds, pine floor, and woodburning fireplace add to the charm of our Black Bear Chalet. In fact, we adopted a stuffed black bear from Fernie Mountain while we were building our home and he is still present as the keeper of our chalet.

Our chalet is ideal for large families or groups who love to cook and socialize around our large kitchen table, built by one of the owners. Large decks off the kitchen and great room, a propane barbecue, and a commercial hot tub aid to the enjoyment of the secluded property. A fire pit overlooks the lake at the back of the property, giving you a back to nature feel. It truly is a little piece of Canadian paradise!

The property also has a basement suite, occupied by long term tenants. The basement suite has a completely separate entrance to ensure privacy for our chalet guests. The basement tenants can be used as a resource for local dining and activity recommendations.

Airport and Transit Details: Cranbrook International Airport is within a 45 minute(s) drive.

Bus Transit can be reached by driving for 10 minute(s).

Shopping and Dining: Can be reached by walking for 5 minute(s). Several restaurants are located in walking distance on the hill. There is also a small grocery & liquor store, as well as a a couple of gift shops.

Nearby Attractions: Tennis courts, horse back riding, mountain biking, chair lift rides are located 5 minutes away.
Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washing machine, and 4 bathrooms. Housekeeping is available on request.

Excellent Family Reunion Location

We loved our family reunion at Black Bear Chalet! The Chalet was beautiful and perfect for our family group of 14 and 2 pups! I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a cozy mountain getaway! The Chalet was well stocked with everything you need for a large group including kitchen accessories, abundance of towels and plenty of firewood for the fireplace and outdoor firepit. Lana was quick to reply to our email request to park our trailer at the Chalet for the weekend. The Chalet had a well cared for feel, very cozy and comfortable. The hot tub and outdoor firepit offered wonderful additions to the weekend activities. I recommend Black Bear Chalet as the perfect place to create lasting family memories.
