About this house rental
Welcome to The Bear’s Den — a winter-ready, pet-friendly Vermont retreat designed for families who want to be together without feeling crowded. Cozy up by the fireplace, enjoy an open living space with games and gathering areas, and be just minutes from Mount Snow.
Set on nearly 4 peaceful acres, this 1,800-square-foot home offers space to spread out, thoughtful storage, and practical amenities that make winter travel with kids (and dogs) easier. Guests consistently share how comfortable the home feels, how naturally everyone gathers in the main living space, and how easy it is to settle in for ski weekends and family time.
The Bear’s Den is one full side of a duplex, with a seasonal renter of a family of 4 in the neighboring unit.
Designed for Together Time
The open-concept main living area is the heart of the home — perfect for reconnecting after days on the mountain.
• Large, comfortable sectional
• Giant Smart TV
• New RealFlame fireplace for cozy winter nights
• Convertible pool table located in the main living space (pool, ping pong, or dining setup)
• Seating for large family meals
• Dart board, board games, and puzzles
A fully stocked coffee and tea bar helps get ski mornings started, and high-speed fiber-optic internet supports streaming, remote work, and staying connected.
A Kitchen That Truly Works for Families
This kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking — not just reheating.
• Induction range and convection oven

What a fun place to stay. Highly recommend for weekend away with kids. So much room for everyone to relax after skiing. Great location to mountain. Very clean and owner was so easy to get in touch with. Definitely will be back next year!!

The home was so beautiful and fit 4 couples comfortably! The entertaining area was exactly what we wanted and we were never bored! Highly recommend this property, Kate was so responsive and an amazing host! The house had a bunch of things I forgot to bring as well like body wash, it was just amazing! Thank you Kate for the great stay!!

My friends and I enjoyed our time here! We had 13 people in our group. We spent a good chunk of our time in the main living room area upstairs playing ping pong and watching TV! Note: the outdoor space/trash/recycling is shared with another property. Most of the bedrooms are downstairs and while we weren't sure if we'd have enough space at first, the owners have really cleverly optimized the space in the property. The location is great too! Overall a good time :)

What a great find. The property is tucked away a few minutes from town and about 20 minutes from Mt. Snow. There was snow cover, so we did not use much outside but it would be a nice spot for kids to run around and parents to hang out. The house is a duplex with bathrooms on both floors three bunk beds and a nice living/kitchen area. The property was well cleaned and there were enough dishes and drinkware for 8 people. The pool/ping pong table was a huge hit with the kids (and parents). The owners were great at communicating before the stay and after when we had to leave early to get ahead of a major storm. We would definitely recommend and, if we are planning to be in the area, would definitely rent again.
