Stay was great! Very clean and a prime location which is close to everything. Would stay again!
Stayed here for five days and they are easy to reach out to if there was any problems. The only problem we ran into is the t.v. Tried to get channels and always wanted a password. No real problem with that because we were always on the go.

Perfect property for family getaway!
We loved our stay at Bear Pause! Everything was accurately described and perfect for our family! We didn’t get a chance to use the grill due to the chilly weather but we are sure next time we will utilize it! Our kids had a blast and we definitely plan to be back! Very close to everything but felt secluded! We even met some of the friendly neighbors!

This is such a beautiful home in such a great location! We slept 5 comfortably and the beds are so comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better location. It was only a few minutes away from the strip. This home was also the cleanest home we have ever stayed at on vacation!Thank you so much!!

Sisters Trip
Home was perfect for “senior “ sisters. We had easy access to all the sites. We saw a mama bear with her cubs right outside our door several times. They just came walking up with us outside so use caution. The only negative was the driveway was a little steep so you had to be careful with sliding. Otherwise the cabin was perfect. We would stay here again and would highly recommend it for a small family.

Good place
Secluded and quiet, good place to stay. This home was clean and adequately equipped with all the necessities. The driveway can be a little tricky, especially the grade and turning around, but we were in Jeeps so there was no problem for us. The only suggestions I would make is to consider fencing in the area outside the back porch for pups to meander in. Thank you.

I can see why it was cheap.
Could not get the TV to work . Shower drainage was stopped up. the water almost run over the bottom of shower. The freezer in the fridge would not keep our food frozen. The ice cream was all melted and other food. The place was grown up and we had to get a running start to get up the driveway. Could not get in because VRBO did not send us the code to get in. Finally got the owner to send it. This was an awful experience. The only thing good was the beds were confortable.
