Long Weekend with Friends
Property was excellent. Beds were top quality and kitchen was well stocked. Bathrooms, bedrooms, and house were very clean. Would gladly stay here again and would recommend this property to anyone I know. Only issue to note and be aware of is the inside fireplace has a very poor draft and the glass doors must be closed to avoid extreme smoke in the house. The doors, which need to have the glass cleaned badly, can only be opened when a healthy bed of embers are present to create a strong upward draft. Outside chimney is simply too short and well below the high point of the house roof.

Another perfect stay at Bear Ridge!
This is the perfect ski house. This was our 2nd stay at Bear Ridge and it did not disappoint. The house had everything we needed and was very cleannand well maintained. It was perfect for our two families (4 adults, 5 kids). All the kids could stay together in the bunk room, and the basement downstairs with ping pong and games kept them busy for hours! Perfect proximity to the mountain as well - about a 3min drive. Thank you again for a great stay!

Amazing stay for our adult group of skiiers!
Had an awesome stay at this house - we were a group of 8 adult couples (30+). We stayed at the house for a ski weekend at Sunday River over NYE. The house is thoughtfully stocked and designed for a ski trip. Open concept kitchen/living room, 5 min drive to the slopes, large hot tub, dining table and couch, games and fireplace ... perfect! Would definitely stay again.

Your Family/Friends Will Like This!
There is plenty of room for a large family group: three levels of living space with stunning views, or step onto the deck or patio to commune with the Maine outdoors. Our adult daughter particularly appreciated the second master on the ground floor; our sons loved the full-size bunks upstairs. This chalet manages to feel both spacious and cozy at the same time. The laundry facilities are first-rate. Yes, the pots and pans are a bit limited, but the kitchen appliances are great. Details like wide-panel cherry flooring and radiant heat add comfort. There's ample parking, with a 14-50 outlet for EV charging. We look forward to our next visit.

Amazing!!
This property was amazing! If you’re considering this property I would highly recommend you stay as it was a great value. I stayed with my parents and sister and girlfriend. We felt like we had an amazing space that was so inviting and allowed us to spend time together and make great mementoes but also space for privacy when we wanted it. Indeed, great memories were made at a fantastic location.

Close to Sunday River!
Great place to stay with a group of friends or with a big family! We were a group of four couples. Very convenient to Sunday River for skiing (7 min drive) and a beautiful view of the slopes. Our stay coincided with the resort's fireworks night on Saturday and we had a prime view from the deck. The beds were very comfortable and we all appreciated the separate set of towels to use after going in the hot tub. The pots and pans in the kitchen definitely need an upgrade and another full set of dishwasher-safe bowls and plates could come in handy. Overall, all of us had a great time!

Fabulous ski house
We had a great time at this spacious and well stocked home in the mountains. The view of the Sunday River ski trails and mountains from the main room was just breathtaking. Lots of space to relax and lounge around after skiing. We loved gathering around a warm fireplace with stunning views. The ping pong and hot tub were a family favorite. We definitely hope to return!

Wonderful House Close to Sunday River
We stayed here for an early season ski trip with our two kids. First, my youngest loved all of the bear decor! The view of the mountains was wonderful, and the house is so spacious! Beds were comfy, house was easy to make ourselves at home in, and five minutes to the resort. Would definitely stay again!

Relaxing Getaway!
My family including our four children and another family with two children stayed at Bear Ridge over Labor Day Weekend. The home was spacious, we all had room to spread out. The game room was a favorite among both children and adults. The hosts were beyond accommodating and the home had everything we needed. We would recommend this home to anyone staying in the Sunday River area.

Nice 3-generation family getaway
Lovely house. Very clean - even grandma found no dust. Sunlight = amazing. Plenty of space for everyone to gather or be alone. Well-provisioned kitchen. Dining table befit a large tribe. Has everything: hot tub already warm, sparkling grill, cornhole. Ping pong and foosball tournaments. We had a few issues come up - hot water, beeping alarm - and owner addressed them straightaway. We hope to return.

Great house with nice layout for families. Two masters make it easy for the parents and the bunk room is a hit with the kids - beautiful views of Sunday river too. A quick drive to the mountain makes it easy to start the day and pop home when you need a break. Would happily rent again

Beautiful house
My family stayed here for the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed all that this house had to offer. It was exactly what we were looking for and accommodated all of our needs from extra towels and linens to the heater in the master bath. My only comments would be how horribly thin the ceiling is between the main floor and top floor. Anytime someone goes to even sit in bed you can hear a creek. But you can barely hear it if you are the top floor. So if you are in the master bedroom I highly suggest bringing a loud fan to avoid constant creeks of people the shuffling in bed. In the 5 bed-bedroom. The air conditioner still being in there saved my life but I'm sure its coming out soon. Also if your in the hottub or the private porch don't look up, the many breeds and generations of spiders own the house. The lack of hot water was ultimately the biggest disappointment of the weekend. I drew a bath for myself in the jacuzzi tub. Waited for it to fill up about 1/3 of the way. Went back in and it was running straight cold after that little bit. No showers or baths had been taken yet. From then on we staggered our showers through the weekend because even towards the end of a single shower it would be cold. We all loved the experience and just being together in this beautiful house but I can only imagine how a hot shower would feel after a day of skiing and to not recieve that.

Nice house, great hosts
Had a really fun time at this property. The house was just as described, very clean and comfortable. Our only problem was a faulty refrigerator. We called Kirk for assistance and he brought us a new fridge and coolers of ice to hold us over right away. It was great to know the host was there for us! We've rented several VRBO properties and this was one of our favorites. Recommended!

Perfect ski chalet
This place is all around fantastic. 5 minutes from Sunday River, fully stocked with everything you need in the kitchen for cooking, including a bunch of spices and cooking oils. The hot tub is a nice touch at the end of a long day on the slopes. The place is also quite large so kids can go do their thing while adults enjoy the living room and fire. The hosts have definitely been thoughtful in making this place ready for guests. We would 100% stay here again for a family ski trip.
