Welcome to Black Bear Lodge – your winter getaway! This cozy, three-level cabin is perfect for a winter escape! With 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a loft, there's plenty of space for everyone. A main-floor bedroom makes access easy, and heated tile floors keep your feet warm after a chilly day outside. Step onto the wrap-around deck, where you can soak in the steaming hot tub while snow falls around you. Fire up the grill, or just breathe in the crisp mountain air. Inside, challenge your family to a game on the foosball table or relax by the fire. Best of all, you're just 20 minutes from Yellowstone's west entrance, making it easy to explore the park's winter wonderland by snowmobile or cross-country skis. Whether you're here for adventure or relaxation, Black Bear Lodge is the perfect place to make unforgettable winter memories!
