The hosts were very accommodating and the cabin was well equipped with everything needed for a wonderful family holiday and for potential long-term stay. The location was beautiful with the national forest right out the back sliding glass door!! There were a magical trails all around behind the house. We really went to play in the snow, but I could see enjoying four seasons at this beautiful little cabin.
This property is amazing especially if your not wanting to be in the city. Great space to enjoy family time and outdoor activities. Truly a beautiful property! Property manager is also very nice and helpful!
The cabin was super cute and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There were several nice hiking trails right out back. Thanks for sharing this beautiful location.
We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was neat and clean and provided a great base for our adventure in Colorado. The host was responsive but not intrusive. We would stay again for sure. We loved seeing the Moose mom with her calf several times in the community.
Backed up to a national park. Could it get any better?
This cabin, boasts all the amenities plus a peaceful, quiet mountain experience.
What a great place to stay!
Loved the location of the cabin. The cabin was clean and had what we needed. We had to reach out to the owner once for a quick fix and they were very responsive and helpful. We didn’t want to leave!
We loved our trip to the Dancing Bear! We've stayed at quite a few vacation rentals/condos in the Rockies and this one is definitely one of our favorites. Comfortable space, well-equipped kitchen, cozy wood stove, and we loved the access to National Forest land out the door for walks with our pup. Don and Donna went out of their way to make us feel welcome and make sure we had what we needed for our stay. We hope to come back again some time!
Donna's place was great. Felt secluded, yet close to things needed. The fireplace was fantastic, as well as having access to the snowshoeing gear to enjoy the trails behind the house. Responsive and detailed communication, and smooth check-in and out processes.
The owners were wonderful with their communication and helpfulness. It is a very spacious and clean home. Very well-situated property between Black Hawk and Nederland. The place was so quiet and relaxing that we decided to stay another day, and the host was so gracious and accommodating. Highly recommend this property and we will visit again.
Bear cabin has everything one would need for a delightful stay in the mountains. The backyard opens up into a national forest and the cabin itself is both spacious and cozy. Nederland and Golden Gate State Park are just short drives away. We’ve been coming back to this cabin for several years now. We’ve made a lot of wonderful memories here! I can’t recommend it enough.
We have traveled 3 years in a row from Michigan to Colorado with our 3 dogs and have always been pleased with our stay. Donna is very prompt to respond to any questions. The accommodations are a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle. The wildlife this year was more active than the last couple years. All in all we highly recommend staying at this cabin. It’s perfect.

This cabin was the perfect quiet getaway! My partner and I needed a break from work and regular life, and this lovely spot in the mountains was a great choice. The internet may have been slower than we’re used to, but it worked fine for being way out in the woods. The views were gorgeous, and an easy drive into Nederland - such friendly people - gave us access to any supplies we needed. We’d definitely come back to Dancing Bear, and happily recommend it to friends!
Great little place in the mountains for our snowy weekend. We booked this place over the MLK holiday weekend and was anticipating nearly 8-12" of snow. The owners were both very responsive during 0 degree hot water issues. It was the most picturesque snowy weekend near the cozy warm woodburning stove. We used the house snowshoes to romp around the snow. We had great memories in this place and would love to visit again!
Spending 4-5 days at Bear Cabin each summer has become a family tradition, one that we look forward to throughout the year. The location is perfect—hiking trails from the back yard, short distance from Golden Gate Canyon Park, many other wonderful hiking trails, and close enough to Nederland for a trip into town.
The cabin is well appointed and welcoming and the host is always responsive. Frankly, I just can’t say enough good things about Bear Cabin. We love it!!
I normally don't write reviews or surveys but in this case I need to chime in. The cabin was very clean with a great location. It exceeded my exceptions by far. The hosts are some of the nicest folks I have ever had the pleasure to speak with. One of the best vacations I have ever had and the cabin was just so nice. If you are wanting to stay somewhere in the mountains and you do not give this place a try-I think you made a mistake. I hope to go back again !
The cabin itself was very adequate with direct access to the Roosevelt National Forest. We loved sitting on the porch watching the little birds and squirrels come to the open feeder. The only issue was that VRBO did not send the email with the door codes so we had to contact the owner for access. Donna was quick to respond, though. Go there. Go to Nederland and take a walk around town. So nice!

Donna and Don are incredible hosts! Very supportive and responsive. The pictures online don’t do this cabin justice. It’s absolutely beautiful. My son was unable to get his car up the hill and we got trapped in for a day even though they very clearly had just cleared the driveway for us. They started reaching out to neighbors about parking his car so we could enjoy the city while we were there. Roy was so nice to allow us to park about a mile from the cabin. What an absolute blessing everyone was! We enjoyed our time as a family so much thanks to Donna, Don AND their friends!! ❤️
