About this house rental

Welcome to the Ursa Major House. This house was acquired in the spring of 2022. All furnishings and hot tub are brand new. Every bedroom has had a mini split unit installed, providing each room with heat and air-conditioning. The kitchen/living room also has a mini split unit. This system is additional to the baseboard heating system found throughout the home.

This 4 bedroom and 3 bath house with private wooded yard is your perfect year round getaway. Minutes away from Sunday River resort, Mt. Abrams, Bethel center, Cross country skiing, snowmobile and ATV trails. Amenities include a fully stocked kitchen mudroom, game room, hot tub, fire pit, 2 car garage and air conditioning.

This is one of the only properties in Bethel that comes with garage access. Guests will be provided with a virtual garage door opener via an app during their stay. I have had two full size trucks parked inside, so it is definitely large. Keep your vehicle out of the elements. No need to clean snow off of your car before heading off to the mountain to ski. 1-2 cars can be parked in the garage, depending on the size of the vehicles.

Distances to many local attractions:

2 miles to Bethel center - Groceries, Shops, Restaurants and much more.

8.7 miles to Sunday River

We absolutely LOVED this property! The kitchen was well stocked so cooking with a big crowd was very easy. The game room was spectacular and gave us lots to do while we were at the house. The hot tub was fabulous especially after a day outdoors. The beds were very comfortable and it was great to have so many bathrooms. The host was very responsive and thoughtful with all the things you might need. Great location, quiet and woodsy but still close to town. If we could rate higher than 5 we would!

The host was very accommodating and extremely quick to respond during check out and check in. Instructions for everything were very thorough so there was no need to ask anything during the stay. The house itself was perfectly set up I didn't fully understand how many features it had until we were actually in the house, from boot warmers, games, mini split HVAC units in each room, multiple tankless water heaters, and even included laundry detergent I was blown away by what this host provided. Location to Sunday river was within 15 minutes incredibly easy to get to/from the mountain. Truly a great house I couldn't recommend more.

I stayed at the Ursa Major House over Christmas with my family and everything was perfect! The house was very clean and nicely decorated. The furniture was comfortable, and there was plenty of space for everyone. The game room was great for entertaining the older kids and the hot tub was a nice treat in the middle of winter. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed for our family dinners. Trevor was very communicative and the check-in and check-out process was easy. I would highly recommend this house and would love to stay here again if in the area!

We were in Bethel for a family ski trip (5 adults) and this property was perfect for our stay. Excellent and attentive host and a very nice house throughout. Everyone was comfortable, kitchen was well appointed, and the hot tub and games were nice amenities. The location was quiet and close to town and Sunday River. Highly recommend this host and property. Thanks for a great stay.
