Our family enjoyed our weekend away. The house was just what we were looking for and located within a short distance from Blackwater Falls. We explored several hikes and enjoyed shopping in Davis and Thomas.

A great getaway
We had everything we needed to enjoy the Bear Lair! We loved being able to have fires in the evening and enjoyed the view from the living rooms windows. We really appreciated being able to bring our 4 legged friend, who also had a great time. We did have a little bit of snow so had to be careful on the flight of stairs up to the cabin.
