Bear Den at Massanutten Resort

Comfortable 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom house inside the gates of Massanutten Resort. Enjoy sitting in the hot tub on the enormous two-level deck surrounded by beautiful woods. Quickly start up the propane fire pit table and enjoy sitting on the deck around the fire with your favorite beverage, or dine al fresco around the outdoor table & chairs. Inside the house is a huge 4-season sunroom spanning the entire back of the house with gorgeous views of the surrounding woods. Well-stocked kitchen with granite countertops and everything you need to make full meals at home. Living room has plenty of cozy seating and a gas fireplace. Two large flat screened TVs, one in living room and one in primary bedroom.

House sleeps 6 in the 3 bedrooms, with capacity to sleep up to 4 more on the sleeper sofa in the sunroom and queen air mattress. (Sleeper sofa best for kids not adults.) Primary bedroom has king bed and en suite bathroom with tub and shower. Bedroom #2 has queen bed. Bedroom #3 has 2 twin XL beds. The second full bathroom is located adjacent to the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms. Half bathroom conveniently located in the hallway. The house is all one level with only 1 step up to the front door. Great high-speed internet and wifi so you can do work or school from the house, and stream all your favorite shows on the TVs.
