The Sleeping Bear’s Lair | Powder Horn | Dogs OK

Welcome to our newly renovated serene getaway nestled in the lush forest of the charming community on Powder Horn Mountain. Powder Horn mountain is a gated community offering security, privacy, and an opportunity to enjoy nature. It's been described as "like living in a national park.” If you enjoy being outdoors, hiking, and quiet this will become a new favorite destination. There are over 10 miles of hiking trails within the community, a campground, and an abundance of wildlife.

This house was completely renovated in 2023. You’ll find all new appliances, new memory foam mattresses, new furnishings, and small but well appointed bathrooms.

The Living Room
This is a nice open space and includes sectional couch, 1-touch gas fireplace, wall-mounted Roku TV, movies, games, and an Infinity Game Table. Cozy up by the fireplace, read a book, watch some TV, and get the family together for game night.

The Kitchen
The open concept of the kitchen makes it easy for the cook to keep up with the conversation. You'll find all new appliances including fridge, freezer, oven, microwave, and a dishwasher so quiet you won't even know it's running! We've included all the essentials such as utensils, plates, cups, bowls, wine glasses, kid/toddler friendly dinnerware, cooking utensils, blender, crockpot, baking sheets, and casserole dishes. After your meal is complete have a seat at the live edge counter top that includes seating for 4 and enjoy.

"The Big Bear Den"
This is the main bedroom and includes a king size bed and ensuite bathroom. It's located on the main level and includes clothing storage, nightstands with extra outlets and USB charging options, blinds, black out curtains, wall-mounted Roku TV, and sound machines. We think you'll enjoy relaxing in this peaceful retreat.

"Bear Den"
This is the second bedroom and is also located on the main level. It includes a queen size bed, clothing storage, nightstands with extra outlets and USB charging options, blinds, black out curtains, wall-mounted Roku TV, and sound machines.

"The Cub Camp"
This is our kid friendly environment located in the loft and includes 2 twin XL size beds, Nintendo gaming consoles, TV, toys such as blocks, parachute men (try tossing these guys over the railing), books, and bean bag chairs. We’ve also included extra outlets, USB charging options, and a sound machine.

DISCLAIMERS: There is typically little to no cell service on the property. Guests can enable WIFI calling or use the landline phone provided.

* We are a secluded mountain retreat, the closest gas station is 12 mi (approximately 22 min), closest grocery store (Food Lion) is 11 mi (approximately 20 min) & closest restaurant is 6 mi (15 min) away. We recommend stopping for gas & groceries on the way in to stock up for your stay & to plan accordingly.
During your stay you will have access to the entire home, with the exception of the owner’s closet in the basement, where we keep spare linens and cleaning supplies.

Parking for up to 4 vehicles is available on site in the gravel parking area.

Amazing!
My family and I spend an amazing weekend at the Sleeping Bear’s Lair. The house felt so much like home. The beds were so comfortable and the furnishings were perfect for us all. We had a great time playing family games on the game table. The home had everything we could have possibly needed. Even for our four legged family member. I was very impressed by how clean the place was. It was big enough that we all had our separate space, but we ended up hanging out together most of the time. I really enjoyed my coffee in the rocking chairs on the back deck and the trails that I could hike without even getting in the car. We included a fun trip to the club house where we enjoyed the paddle boats and pool. Thanks for an amazing weekend. I can’t wait to book again.
