We absolutely LOVED our stay! It was beautiful and the hot tub was amazing. The hosts were so friendly and kind and such great communicators. Very pleased, we will definitely be back!
The hosts were awesome about answering my questions about the property and the area. The space was new and very clean. It had everything we needed. Excellent spot for a group of snowmobilers.
Dave and Brenda were great hosts. The Bears Den is very spacious and cute. The location was perfect. As listed it is secluded on the top of a hill. The views from the hot tub were amazing! It was a short drive to downtown Seeley Lake and cross country ski trails.
The hosts were easy to get in touch with and were super accommodating. They were top notch! Their home was extremely clean, organized and we had everything that we needed for our stay! We will be back next year! Thanks again!
Great stay w/wonderful hosts. Accommodations were updated, very clean and had everything we needed for our time there. Had the ability to cook with all kitchen necessities. Great place for a family of 4 -7 pp. Beat part was the wildlife, they have deer that visit multiple times per day., so fun! Thanks again Brenda and David!
We loved staying at the property. It was quiet, yet centrally located to shops, restaurants, and Seeley Lake. The space was perfect for us and we would always stay here again.
David and Brenda are extremely friendly and made the entire process from booking to check out completely smooth. They welcomed us when we arrived and we had a great discussion about our trip when we were checking out. Would recommend this place for anyone looking to stay around Seeley Lake.
This is becoming our winter getaway. The owners are great and the house is perfect. Close to the lake and stores. Hot tub is perfect after a cold day on the ice.
The place was awesome and Montana is beautiful. The owners actually helped our children feed some deer that were in the area. Overall great experience.
We had a relaxing time at Dave and Brenda’s property. We enjoyed the local sites around Seeley Lake since they were all so close. We would definitely stay again. Loved my massage on the deck listening to the birds and stream.
Stayed for a week visiting my daughter who was working at Paws Up for the season. Great location, nice outdoor seating with view for morning coffee, extremely clean and comfortable. Great hosts!
I would recommend this Vrbo to any one. Nice views, nice hot tub, close to down town, easy access, great parking and clean Vrbo. I can’t say enough good things.
Had a family wedding at Seely lake but unfortunately I couldn’t make the trip. My family said Dave’s place was perfect. Nice location and very nice host’s will be going someday our self’s in the future. .
