Mike and Carol are ideal hosts, kind, hospitable, and caring. The lodge is a beautiful log cabin with comfortable rooms. The location is also great, halfway between Cannon and Bretton Woods. We have stayed here the last two years and plan to come back often. You must check it out! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392530 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392529 very nice location, facility, rooms, beds and owners. A bit pricey but all new and nice facilities and the owners are allways trying to please you and meet any of your needs. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392529 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392528 What didn't Michael and Carol think of? Nothing. Everything is a paradise, from the moment you walk in - and whatever that means to you, Michael ensures you are able to live that during your stay. New Year's Eve, and the next night, Michael took us out for a snowshoe hike. Our first snowshoeing ever, and certainly our first time out exploring the woods in the middle of the night under a gorgeous starry sky. We would stop often and Michael would teach us what we can learn from all the animal tracks around us. At night, my husband and I would stay in our room enjoying our own private fireplace and jacuzzi, play scrabble, watch movies on the dvd player, and sometimes sneak into the kitchen for some of the delicious complementary homemade cookies. Breakfast was also perfect every morning - mmm the lemon ricotta pancakes with blueberries - or their pumpkin cheesecake muffins (seriously, wow?!) In the evenings, we followed Michael and Carol's restaurant recommendations, always satisfied. When we would return to the B&B, not once did Michael fail to greet us at the door. If I could only change one thing, their adorable golden retrievers - we would have them staying in our room with us. Heating comes from underneath the floor, some old Roman technology - the result is that the bathroom floors are always warm on your toes in the morning or any other time and the air is never dried out from the heat, it's a perfect system. Finally, everything was absolutely immaculate and spotless. It is obvious that Michael takes immense pride in creating such a wonderful haven. They thought of every single detail - down to the luxurious Gilchrist & Soames toiletries - including conditioner. The decorating is gorgeous (I hate antique/typical New England B&B styles), you never forget that you are in the mountains, and I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you so much, Michael and Carol. See you next year!! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392528 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392527 Hello, My boyfriend and I stayed at the Bear Mountain Lodge in September 2008 and got engaged after hiking up Mt. Monroe. We love log cabins and this was the ideal romantic setting for our get away. There was a cozy wood stove in the main sitting area, delicious home-made breakfasts every morning and the Moose Room we stayed in was so clean and inviting. It had a charming moose theme. I would recommend this lodge to any couple looking for peace and quiet. The hosts were friendly and helpful. The hosts also have some adorable dogs. We ended up getting married a couple months later and plan to return for more hiking and romance in the mountains. We will be sure to return to the Bear Mt. Lodge. Sincerely, Julie & Todd http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392527 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392526 Bear Mountain Lodge is a wonderful place to stay. Our room was well kept and extremely clean. The bed was the most comfortable bed in which we have ever slept. Carol's breakfasts were better than any gourmet restaurants (the raspberry strousel muffins were unbelievable!). Michael was an informative host. We had no idea what to do while we were in New Hamshire and he gave us wonderful ideas! We will definitely be going back! -Jean and John http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392526 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392525 My husband and I stayed at the lodge just afew weeks ago. How we wished we could have stayed longer... The fact that it was a log lodge fascinated us, but the view out of our room, living room and eating area was breath taking. Michael and Carol were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great and I had never had such a delicious ginger bread cookie... We had such a great time. Thank you . http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392525 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392524 My fiance and I made our second trip to the Bear Mountain Lodge this year and it was nothing short of spectacular. First and foremost, Carol was incredibly accomodating to our schedule. We went over Columbus Day weekend and they had a 3 day minimum. Unfortunately, our schedules would only allow two days and Carol made an exception for us and even topped that when she put us in the same room as last year. The location, room, ambiance, and exceptional treatment by Carol and Mike make this a must stay for anyone seeking a romantic getaway. The rooms are incredible, views are magnificent, the breakfasts are lengendary, and the feeling of staying with "long time friends' that you get from Carol and Mike makes this so special. Linda and I are going to make this at least an annual if not semi annual trip from Boston because of the VIP treatment you are afforded from your warm, genuine, and generous hosts. If you are looking for an exceptional stay, with everything you could imagine, do yourself a favor and find your own "Nirvana" at the Bear Mountain Lodge. Edward and Linda http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392524 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392523 My husband and I stayed at the lodge to celebrate our 1st anniversary /honeymoon. What a wonderful getaway! We were hopping that a bed and breakfast would be a little more intimate then a hotel or resort. This far exceeded my expectations. The accommodations were absolutely wonderful. You just might want to take the mattresses home with you. Mike and Carol were delightful hosts. The breakfasts were outstanding! You feel like you are staying with friends! Thanks Mike and Carol for the wonderful time! Laura and Bob http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392523 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392522 My husband and I stayed for two nights last week and we had the most amazing stay. Mike and Carol were just the perfect hosts. So friendly and welcoming. The Lodge is so quiet at night. Our room was extremely comfortable, warm and clean, very cosy. Mike was so kind and helpful advising where to eat for dinner and where to go to see the best parts of the Fall. The breakfasts were superb and just nothing about our stay could be faulted, we certainly hope to return. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392522 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392521 We pulled up to this beautiful log cabin in the woods, where we were greeted with warm smiles by Mike. The entire place was just beautiful and the owners are such wonderful hosts. The food was absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Bear_Mountain_Lodge/r392521
