Ski shuttle to Bear Mountain is within walking distance of our cabin. Our driveway is slightly steep so when snowing it is best to have a 4×4 or chains as our driveway is not flat.

Would stay again read less














As described in other comments, the driveway is tricky to navigate. We were not able to get our truck up to the top of the driveway, we had to stop about halfway up to unload our gear. If there was snow, I don't think we would have been able to get up as far as we did. The other option is the equivalent of about 3 flights of stairs. This wouldn't deter us from booking again, just a warning to those who may not be able to make the trek.
We would love to stay here again with our family. read less






A couple important things to note... The driveway is very long and narrow so if you have a small car, you shouldn't have too much trouble going all the way to the top but we have a minivan and absolutely did not feel comfortable with the driveway. We did have a chance to park at the bottom of the driveway so that was at least an option. Also, the fridge did not seem to get cold enough much of the time which was a bit concerning.
My family was very happy and impressed overall and would definitely consider staying here again! read less
