Peaceful stay away from the city
Everything was great! Easy check-in, some bottled water and a snack were waiting for us. Clean property and there was even an extra blow up mattress we didn't request but were happy to have since we brought 2 teens.
It's an idyllic location. We didn't get to walk the property much, as we were visiting family so spent most of the time there, but did spend a peaceful morning listening to the birds on the front porch. I know the area though and it's great hiking.
Plenty of space for the 4 of us and a well stocked kitchen, though we only used a few dishes and the coffee maker.
Only suggestion would be one of the bedrooms didn't have a night stand. I needed one for a CPAP. I just used a stool from the kitchen so it worked out ok.

Quiet retreat
My husband & I stayed for 2 nights. The cabin is wonderful! Quiet & peaceful. The only drawback was no WiFi or cell service. The hosts were fantastic w/ communication. We would definitely stay again.

Peaceful Getaway
We had a great, quiet stay at the Bear Den cabin. Adam was a great host, even before we arrived, answering my questions and giving local recommendations. The cabin was clean and was perfect for a quiet, relaxing weekend away. We sat on the large covered porch each morning and saw deer, including a buck, a group of turkeys, and even a coyote! The hiking trails on the property are well marked and maintained. Pomeroy is a great trip to make from the cabin with lots of local shops, an amazing farmers market, and a wonderful coffee shop! I would also recommend checking out some local wineries. We really liked Pleasant Hill Vineyards. We can’t wait to come back and check out the boat house on the property next time!!

Nice place, but a few gotchas
Beautiful place. Loved the cabin and location. There were a couple issues though. For our stay, there's was no internet hooked up yet. If you're depending on that, you should check status before booking. Also, there seems to be a problem with items being removed from the cabin. We were charged for a missing DVD player that was there when we left. You may want to lock up and arrange for a key drop when you checkout to avoid any similar misunderstandings.
