Great cabin, very convenient location. The air quality was pretty bad because of the fires which spoiled our vacation a bit, but the house has AC units in each room, so that helped.

Lasting Memories

Great location to Shaver town. Loved the big dining table, outside patio and the amount of seating in the living room. I would have liked handrails on the stairs, especially when taking up our luggage. But other than that, the cabin was a great place to stay. Our cabin host was very prompt when responding to all my questions. She also made great suggestions on where to eat and places to explore.

Great for large families

We had a fantastic time at this cabin in Shaver. The living area has plenty of seating and we all enjoyed sitting around the large dining table and playing games. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of pots/pans/utensils/plates/cups for cooking. The basement game room was especially great for my teenagers. It snowed while we were there and the fireplace kept us cozy. I would definitely come here again!

Bear's Den Delivers

We as a family send time each summer in Shaver Lake. Each year we stay with a new cabin/host, but we think we've found the perfect fit for us with Bear's Den.

Great Shaver Stay for a Group

We loved our stay. Great location: walk to town, close to lake, easy drive to China Peak. The house is well set up for a group: large dining table, plenty of rooms/beds, fun games and puzzles, clean, cozy. The host was communicative. Will definitely stay again.

Family Favorite

We had a large group and we're worried about having everyone fit. It was very spacious for all of us, and we loved the short walk into town. Our host was easy to get ahold of and was very friendly.

Annual Family trip

We have hit Shaver Lake every October except the Fire year for the past 15 years if not more. The older gen has passed and now new babies who get to spend time with cousins at the lake and around the fire pit at my Sisters who live about four doors down. This cabin fits our family, and my siblings stay at other cabins with their families. A little cramped upstairs with the bathroom, but it all works. Great communication from the owners and a superbly appointed spot close to anything you may need. Hope we can stay again. Perfect time of year to be up there. The fires and beetles taking a toll on trees but you can see lots of new growth all over.
