Vacation rentals in Black Bear Mountain

Don’s beautiful VanHoevenberg Ridge has become our home base in the ADK, and a “home away from home” where we return several times a year to relax and enjoy the beauty of the mountains and lakes in all seasons. This is by far the best place we have stayed since we have been coming to the ADK for over 30 years. If you are lucky enough to stay here, you’ll be back! Don’s place has everything you’ll need, and is near to everywhere you’ll want to go. The views of the High Peaks are stellar, and the hot tub is relaxing after an active day outdoors. Don is a welcoming host who truly cares that his guests have the best experience, whether avid hikers or simply wanderers seeking serenity and renewal in the woods and waters near his home. He respects your privacy, but is happy to provide his knowledge of the area to find the best hike or paddle for you. This place is our North Star in the ADK: bright, constant, and a place we’ll always look to return to. We recommend it highly to everyone!

Brianna is a wonderful host, very friendly, always available and ready to help in anything we may need. The house is like a Dream House. Lovely living room with a fireplace, TV and a big and comfy sofa. Every room in the house was excellently decorated with a high test and good sense of space making you feel warm and welcome, like your own home. The surroundings are so beautiful that you even have a river running in the backyard. Like fairytale stories. The most amazing thing is the Kitchen fully equipped with seasonings, coffee, tea and beautiful crockery and pot sets. Everything you may need for a memorable vacation is here! We loved this place and definitely we're going to come back. Thank you very much Brianna, you're amazing!

We were in the are for my mother in law's birthday celebration. We needed a home that could accommodate our family. There was plenty of room. Prasanna was very easy to communicate with. All in all a great stay and we would stay there again if the need arose.

If you are reading the reviews to make your decision then read no further and BOOK your stay here!! Reinaldo is a fantastic host, very communicative, and the location is beautiful!! I will absolutely book again this summer to be able to get out on the kayaks! The home was clean, comfortable and felt just like home! It was the most peaceful weekend and I can’t wait to go back!!

This is my second time staying at Caroline's place for some snowmobiling. It is a great location with trails and lakes close by. House is cozy as well.

What a beautiful, warm and cozy space to spend a relaxing weekend! The view was perfect and the thoughtful touches throughout the home were appreciated. Beds were very comfortable! Thank you so much, we would love to return.

We stayed at Jon's place for our snowmobile trip. Jon was extremely helpful with letting us know the local restaurants and where to ride. He went over and above trying to help us plan our daily rides. The BBQ was also put away for the winter but once asked about it, he got it out for us without hesitation. The cottage itself is nice homey place with a wood stove and separate games room where everyone can hang out. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place!

Another great stay at George’s during our annual ski trip to Gore. At the base of the mountain, easy check in and super clean and nice space. Looking forward to returning. Thank you George!

What a hidden gem!! Everything was wonderful and the location is amazing. A little hard to find, but worth it because it was private. TVs did work well but we weren’t there to watch TV. The place was clean and it had EVERYTHING we needed. It had every pot, pan and spice you could ever ask for. Plenty of seating, rooms were nice, porch was amazing. Plenty of places to sleep. We would absolutely go back anytime!! Thank you for a wonderful time!
