With over a thousand acre view over the old Edgemont - Hot Springs railroad bed winding through the canyon, with a sprawling valley beyond. Imagine the old Hot Springs spur railroad bringing in tourists to soak in the warm mineral waters over a 100 years ago.

This cabin is very well insulated 2 minisplits keeps it nice and cool in the hot summer... the nights cool down which makes opening the windows and sleeping with the sounds of the trees, very peaceful.

Family friendly, out of the way, quiet location. The hosts sent a very detailed email with everything we needed to know and were quick to respond to questions. The hosts left s'mores goods for us along with a graciously stocked bathroom, fridge and pantry - including eggs! Definitely needs a deep cleaning. Dog friendly shouldn't mean dog hair on the bed linens, in the corners of the floor or even on the lamp edges when you check-in. Tops of furniture need a good wipe down, found crumbs/dirt on several in the main kitchen/living area. Bathroom clearly had water damage and shower floor was not clean. Beds were not comfortable and creaked every time you moved. Overall we had a good stay but definitely room for improvement.

Non-potable water. Poor water pressure. No broom, mop to clean up after ourselves. Low supplies such as 1 1/2 rolls of toilet paper for 4 adults for 3 days. We had to buy dish soap, t.p. And paper towels. No grill utensils . The hot tub was not what was in the pictures.

Private, Quiet, Remote

This is a wonderful retreat. The cabin is about 10 minutes from town. It is pretty remote and very private. There is lots of land for kids to play and have fun. The cabin itself is very nice. All the essentials are there. It is quite wonderful. We had one small issue and the owners came within five minutes to help out. Great experience.

Great Family Vacation

We had an amazing stay at the Bear Paw Den. We brought our 2 little ones (4 and 6) and they loved it so much. It was a great place to unwind after a long day in the Black Hills. The pictures do not do the views justice. It's truly amazing. Thank you Wade and Patricia for the best family vacation that we have ever had.

A little piece of heaven!

We just returned from our Easter vacation in the Black Hills, and we knew going in that there was no guarantee that we were going to have good weather in a month as fickle April. But fortune smiled on us and we were greeted by the warmest temperatures so far this year. It rained on our last full day at the cabin, but even that provided a good excuse to lay-up and relax in the hot tub, and recover from three days of exploring the Black Hills. Also, the fact that it was Easter Sunday meant that not much, if anything, would have been open anyway. We played board games (thoughtfully provided by the owners), and watched movies, and made banana splits instead. As for the Bear Paw Den; it was exactly what we had hoped for..... a secluded little hideaway for our family of four. In fact, given that the cabin is surrounded on three sides by cliffs, it couldn't have been much more secluded, or picturesque. The cabin is cozy, clean, and well-provisioned with everything visitors could need in terms of basic kitchen utensils, appliances, and dinnerware. Linens, towels, and extra blankets (super soft, and comfy) were to be found in abundance. We were greeted in the mornings by birds singing, and deer nibbling on the new spring grass around the house. At night, we were serenaded by the many wild turkeys roaming the hills behind the cabin. Our kids had a great time exploring the property, and playing fetch with our dogs on the spacious lawn. Our ten year old son practically lived in the hot tub the rest of the time. The town of Hot Springs is a collection of amazing turn-of-century stone architecture, funky little shops and galleries of all kinds, and friendly, down-to-earth people. We would recommend "The Vault"; a cool little bar and grill that had amazing food (try the 'Stewies Cheesesteak' sandwich if you like a little bit of spice in your life), and which was kid-friendly. They even had kid's karaoke from 6-8! We also ventured about ten miles out of town to check out Cascade Falls, a beautiful little oasis of warm springs that is, no doubt a local secret, but which we happened across by just driving around the area. Probably the only down-side to our trip was that we never were able to get ahold of the owners during our stay, and so, were never able to get the password to the wifi network. But even that just ensured that our kids weren't going to spend the whole trip looking at a screen. It was a perfect vacation! 5 stars!!!!!

Great spring break visit

The property was gorgeous! My 7 and 3 yo enjoyed exploring the space and soaks 3x in the hot tub. The cabin fit our needs and was well equipped with kitchen supplies, games and blankets. A washer and dryer would be an excellent addition as well as a few info cards with heater and Wi-Fi instructions for those of us with no cell service. A big thank you to Wade for his hospitality.

Our Christmas at Bear Paw Den was amazing! The cabin is tucked away making it peaceful and quiet.

The Bear Paw Den was extremely clean...which for me is of highest priority! The cabin is decorated so cute and has a homey feel. I love the new master bedroom that was recently added, it is very spacious! Also the living room has tons of windows so you can enjoy the beautiful view. The view and the acres where you can roam freely are gorgeous. The fire pit and hot tub were an added bonus. We all enjoyed the fire pit and a few in our group partook of a soak in the hot tub. The kitchen was well stocked with pans, dishes, utensils, etc... necessary to prepare our meals. Wade and Patricia are great people. Our daughter and son-in-law's puppy locked himself in one of the bedrooms and Wade was there in less than 10 minutes to unlock the door and rescue Rizzo! Our overall experience was positive and we would recommend Bear Paw Den as a peaceful, relaxing get-away!
