  • Inn Details

    Big Bears is located just 1500 ft from the Mount Snow ski area. A free shuttle bus stops in front of the lodge and takes you directly to the slopes and afterwards you can relax in our indoor hot tub or beside one of a large stone fireplaces. Big Bears specializes in group travel, family fun and family reunions and our 60 seat dinning area makes every event just right. Most guest rooms have been recently renovated. In summer months, relax in our outdoor heated pool or enjoy the park like setting of our yard complete with an enormous playground.

    Our Hosts, Steven, Caroline & Shelly, were very personable and at the same time professional. The Lodge is immaculate. The food & service couldn't be better. The hosts make you feel like you can really relax in their home. Great internet service. Lots of room in the common areas to relax. Our whole experience there was great. Sincerely, Barbara McLaughlin

    This was a repeat visit to Big Bears Lodge for us. The lodge is family friendly, and is close to Mount Snow and to Adam's Family Farm. Rooms are clean, offer varying sizes (some have queen beds, bunk beds) and are an excellent value for the money. On the lower level there is a hot tub, a pool table and a nice kids room with plenty of toddler toys to keep them busy. There are also several common areas throughout the inn. The innkeepers do an excellent job at making sure you are satisfied with your stay. I would recommend Big Bears for families with kids and adults traveling as well.
