It was a wonderful place to stay and breakfast was quite good. The owners went above & beyond. The property looks a little more remote than it actually is: which turned out to be super convenient for accessing either Grass Valley or Nevada City.

Incredible
First of all, Ken and Julie were absolutely the best hosts. Whatever question we had, they answered. The breakfast they set out each morning was delicious- Julie makes the best blueberry muffins. We had the entire area (sunroom, jacuzzi, barbeque area, outdoor fireplace area, and outside sitting area by the koi pond to ourselves. Everything was super clean. Our bed was comfortable. It is very clear that the hosts love this place and take great care of it. We cannot wait to go back.

A lovely weekend getaway
My fiancé and I had an incredible stay at the Bear Den. We enjoyed the property including the hot tub. The hosts were extremely thoughtful by having a fire set up for us to use, a celebration banner and even a box of chocolates for my fiancé who we were celebrating. We would definitely recommend a stay here. Can’t wait to come again!

A cozy hideaway
My friend and I had a lovely stay here for a small birthday celebration. They added some personal touches with a happy birthday sign and made breakfast in the morning. The owners were so nice and helpful with every request we had. This location is close to amazing food and shopping in Nevada City, as well as hiking and other adventures. Will definitely be coming back in the future.

Lovely setting, awesome hosts!
We had an amazing time. This lovely wooded setting was so relaxing and beautiful. We had several soaks in the very nice hot tub. We enjoyed the outdoor seating area with a waterfall and Koi pond. We slept well— the bed was so comfortable! The hosts gave us complete privacy but were reachable when we needed anything. We look forward to revisiting this location in the future.

The property itself is laid out to be very tranquil. The hosts, Ken and Julie are fabulous people and made the stay even more enjoyable. My biggest decision was which part of the yard did I want to settle into. I chose a different part each time and I will be back. Amazing location and hosts.

Julia and Ken are wonderful hosts. The room is cozy and super clean. They thought about every little detail you can imagine. My husband and I enjoyed breakfast with a variety of choices and excellent quality. We also had the opportunity to grill and enjoy our dinner in the patio. They have a fireplace and Ken gifted us a S'mores kit to enjoy with our fireplace. The hot tub was fabulous, and relaxing. We highly recommend the "Bear Den"

Bear Medicine
As a solo guest of the "Bear Den" I felt beautifully welcome and looked after. Julie and Ken, the hosts, have thought of everything. If you would like to chat with them, conversation is marvelously thoughtful and polite. At the same time, they are also highly conscious and careful of not intruding on your time or space. The grounds are wonderfully well-kept and tranquil. You have all the peace and privacy you need to feel at home and unwind. Bear medicine indeed!

Scenic and Relaxing
The house is just a few minutes away from the city, and all the exploring you would want to do there, but it's also far enough away that no cars or foot traffic are ever going to bother you. I feel like whether you're looking for a home-base to explore the area, or a completely quiet stay-in experience, this is a great spot The only other thing I'd like to add is that I normally try to rent full homes whenever possible, but Julie and Ken were very respectful of our privacy. The next time I have the chance to getaway for a bit, this place is going to be near the top of my list.

Peaceful and Private Setting
Julie and Ken are the perfect hosts, and their Bear Den was the perfect peaceful and private setting for a last minute, one night getaway for two, complete with a scrumptious more-than-continental breakfast. We plan to return in the spring when we can stay longer to enjoy the amenities and for Hubby to do his astrophotography thing. I can't wait!
