The space
Mama Bear Cabin is cozy, easily convenient to everything and super relaxing. She is located walking distance to the lake, eateries and shops but is secluded down her own, lighted private lane.

Enjoy puzzles, board games, indoor eating, doing crafts together, rhythm instruments, dress ups for 1 to 100; a children's play area, karaoke, family DVDs, and a cozy reading area in "The Gathering Place." Visiting together on 2 large sectionals that have reclining seats or watching that favorite movie on the 55" TV in the Great Room is a favorite!

Mama Bear's Arcade Room with a Classic Arcade Machine with 66 games, a Star Wars Pinball Machine, XBox and Skeeball is one of the best spots in the cabin for all ages to enjoy.

She has two kitchen preparation areas, 2 laundry areas, 4 refrigerators, is fully stocked with condiments and every appliance you can ever want or need. Want to DUTCH OVEN for your group? Covered on that one, too. Eating areas are both indoors and outside.

Four of the 10 bedrooms are on the main floor. Five of the bedrooms are private rooms for 1 to 2 people. The MASTER BEDROOM, located on the main floor is in the far southeast part of the cabin. Grandpa and Grandma can “get away” from all the hustle and bustle when they need to have some “down time” to rejuvenate, take a nap, or watch their own Smart TV.

Enjoy visiting on the comfortable patio furniture as you watch your children play on the playground, or dodge ball, badminton, wiffle ball, frizbee golf or tether ball, horse shoes, or the obstacle course from one tree to another. Sleep in the hammocks or read your favorite noval as you REST, RELAX AND REJUVINATE at Mama Bear Cabin!

Soak in the hot tub under the stars with the entire property lit by solar lights. There is much “SMORE” to do. Remember that fire pit is begging you to stop by.

Working Remotely? There is a designated area, (LazyDaz), sitting area and use of the high speed Fiber Optic Internet. You can still hop out of bed and work in your PJs if you want!

We found a little bit of Heaven on Earth at Mama Bear Cabin. Available year round.
