love love love bear den

"Love, Love, Love The Bear Den! We will definitely be back. All of us were extremely satisfied with our way. Way better than a hotel!!! It was great to have all the amenities here. It made our snowmobiling experience that much easier and enjoyable. The owners went above and beyond. It was a last minute reservation and included an additional night with no problems. The Bear Den was super clean, comfortable and furnished beyond what was expected! The King bed was to die for - didn't want to leave it!!! If your craving pizza like we were, go to Liberty Bell in Hurley - Delicious. Thank you so very much! - Heather (Feb 9, 2014)

"Absolutely Awesome!!! The bear Den is so cute, comfortable, cozy and charming. Everything is here that you could possibly need to make yourself at home. I have to mention the King bed, as well. Unbelievably comfortable. I didn't want to get out of it. Sure made for a restful sleep which was needed to recover from busy days of hiking and visiting with old and new friends." - Jill & Millie (Jun 18, 2014)

Bear Den is wonderful

"The Bear Den is wonderful! We enjoyed our stay very much and we appreciated the Wi-Fi- and long distance phone. The rooms are great - loved the beds! The living room, kitchen are was great for family meals and get-togethers. We were for for July 4th and a family reunion. We would definitely recommend this place. Kids favorite activities include catching frogs, climbing the bluff in Bessemer and the parade and fireworks. We also really appreciated the laundry machines and the well-stocked kitchen. The Bear Den was the perfect home-away-from home." Joann & Mike (Jul 7, 2014)

delightful getaway

"Such a delightful get-away we've just enjoyed at the Bear Den! We so appreciate all of the generous touches that made our vacation a relaxing break from the daily hub-hub...wonderful bed, the goodies awaiting us on the dining table, the well-provisioned kitchen and everything so tidy and welcoming. The only thing missing from the home was the t0-do list (didn't miss it!!). All that was left for us to do was to explore this beautiful area. the waterfalls were a hit as well as all of the state and county parks...the Porcupine Mountains and of course Liberty Bell Pizza! Thanks so much for sharing your lovely home with us!" - Bill & Chris (2014)

"What a beautiful weekend! Glad you could plan the weather like this! The Bear Den is better than at home. We visited Little Girl's Point, which had been devastated by a recent storm, but I found plenty of rocks and stones. We visited Presque Isle and waterfalls and Lake of the Clouds. The color on the trees was gorgeous and Ron did not freeze his butt off!!! Terrific time." - Ron, Janice & Kat (Sep 28, 2014)

red kitchen

"It seems that every time we come "Up North" we are always at a different house. we love the fact that we have a choice of homes depending on how many people we have with us. The "Bear Den" fit our needs and was very appreciated. We just loved the decor, the cleanliness and the location. We try to come up here at least once a year. We picked this weekend because of "Applefest" in Bayfield, but the weather did not cooperate. We did manage to get to some waterfalls and go to Lake Superior (my favorite lake). My wife just loved the red theme in the kitchen. I can't believe how roomy and spacious a small house can be.  It was great. We love the homes that Tracy has rented to us in the past. Every year, as we look at our vacation pictures, there is usually one or two pictures of the house we rent. We are never disappointed. Thanks." - Friendship, WI (2014)

"Ditto to everything that's been said before!!! This is an absolutely lovely place - what a gem! Thank you to Tracy and Lee for letting us stay here on a whim - we have to be back for a longer stay next time. So impressed by the attention to detail here - from the cozy coordinating decor to the little things (thank you for the yummy pancakes - what a treat to find those in the cupboard). We were even able to use the ice for our coolers to take our pasties home. We enjoyed Liberty Bell Chalet as others have mentioned (I went for my usual - homemade noodles and meatballs! Though I know the pizza is top notch, too!) And we got in a lot of outdoor time - Sunday Lake and Black River Harbor. What a memorable anniversary weekend! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you." - Sara & Scott (Oct 19, 2014)

nice time

"We had a very nice time at The Bear Den. Everything was set up very nice.  Well equipped kitchen... beautiful decor...a great king size bed. Loved it. Ironwood is a great place to visit. There was plenty of snow and the skiing and snowshoeing was great. The trails at Wolverine were awesome. If you want a great meal (breakfast & lunch) go to Mikes Diner on US2. A small dinner with large portions. You won't be disappointed. Of course, The Bell in Hurley is always good too. We come up every year and hope we can get into this same place again next X-Mas." - Pete, Amanda & Family (Dec 27, 2014)

Cabin-Like Coziness

"Fabulous home away from home in the UP! Our XC ski trip was made perfect, by the great accommodations which were spacious for two, but would comfortably work for four. The completely outfitted kitchen made our plan to eat all meals in work perfectly. Was so nice not to have to go out again after a full day of skiing! Having our own hot tub was a huge plus on a ski trip too.

So Comfy

"Bears - Hot tub with easy TV/Roku  - Nature - Awesome Host - What more could you need in a relaxing getaway Airbnb? The Bear Den is great! The king bed was so comfy with nice sheets and a somewhat heavy duvet cover which makes it so snuggly at night. The hot tub had a TV with a Roku box and everything was easy to set up! There was also an ATV trail about a block behind the house which was nice to walk along. They come in to clean the hot tub everyday, so I was worried it wouldn't be as private as I'd like. I was surprised! We didn't even notice them come in, and they even left the hot tub on for us! Host is very knowledgeable of what there is to do around the area if you need more entertainment than the Bear Den itself." - Alex (June 2020)

I was surprised! We didn't even notice them come in, and they even left the hot tub on for us! Host is very knowledgeable of what there is to do around the area if you need more entertainment than the Bear Den itself." - Alex (June 2020)

Definitely Recommend

"We came up to Ironwood for a girls weekend and wanted a cozy house that we could hang out and relax in. This place was just that! It had a full kitchen with everything we needed, hot tub, and just the perfect amount of space for us! Everything was clean and very well kept. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!" - Nicole (Mar 2020)

Absolutely Perfect

"You do not want to miss this place! Tracy was super accommodating and very easy to get ahold of. The house was absolutely perfect for our long weekend. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the house is perfectly situated a short distance from Cold Iron Brewing and Joe's Pasty shop in Ironwood and the ski hills about 15 minutes away. We can't wait to stay here during our next trip!" - Jake (Jan 2020)

Tidy, Warm & Inviting

"Tracy's place was great! Everything was very clean and tidy, warm and inviting. The king-sized bed is very comfortable and the hot tub was a welcome amenity after enjoying the many local hikes available (and a bit chilly weather). The kitchen was well-stocked and the place felt like home. Tracy was a good communicator and they had a book in the house with several suggestions for things to do and places to eat in the area, which we really appreciated. We have stayed in several Airbnb places and this was near the top as far as cleanliness and a comfortable, inviting feelin. We would definitely recommend this place to others!" - Annie (Oct 2019)

Wonderful Place to Relax

"This home is a wonderful place to relax and rest when visiting this area. The home is so comfortable and comes complete with a fully equipped kitchen and a fun hot tub in the basement. The location was perfect for us....close to all of the scenic roads, trails, waterfalls and attractions in the area. The king bed in the master bedroom was one of the most comfortable beds we have ever slept in. If you're visiting this area and looking for a comfortable home that's close to everything, you've found it!" - Lisa (Oct 2019)

Amazing Little Hideaway

"What a great surprise in the North Country! Tracy's place is an amazing little hideaway. When you walk through the front door, her house is beautifully appointed as well as comfortable. The hot tub takes the edge off of a long day and the memory foam bed is such a treat. The house is close to groceries and restaurants and her list of nearby places is super helpful (*HINT* Check out the Black River Pub!) If you are looking for a great place to stay in the U.P. this is it!" - Lori (Sept 2016)
