The cottage is absolutely adorable, and is furnished with all the amenities. The beds are Uber comfortable. The kitchen is beautiful and is stocked with all the appliances you would expect and more. The house is clean, comfortable, cozy and has a bit of whimsical decor which our kids loved. It fit our family of 5 perfectly. The views are stunning. It’s 25 min away from Mt Snow. The owner is very responsive and flexible. We would absolutely stay here again. We loved it. Thank you for a great escape.

If you're looking for a nice late fall weekend getaway or even a lengthier stay in a charming little lake front cottage, than look no further! We arrived to beautiful snowy scenery with a lovely view of the lake (which was just beginning to freeze over for the winter) and a welcoming note accompanied by a delicious bottle of red! Thank you, Linda Jane! The cottage was fully stocked, clean, and very warm and cozy, with just the right amount of rustic feel you would expect from a lakeside cottage. We had a great time exploring the area visiting the local shops, restaurants and of course the general stores in almost every town along the way. The town of Bennington has a few local breweries and a local distillery, both with good food and drink. It was a wonderful relaxing trip, and we couldn't have asked for a better host. Hope to return for some winter and summer fun in the future!

We received the warmest welcome and were fully taken care of. Linda Jane went out of her way to ensure all of our needs were met and that we had an enjoyable experience. She was highly responsive to our questions and accommodation requests. We had a wonderful time enjoying the lake and surrounding area in the state and National forests!

We had a wonderful stay at this warm and inviting lakeside home. Sitting out on the deck early mornings and evenings accompanied by the firepit and picturesque autumn lake was especially peaceful. We took advantage of the beautiful weather and got out on the lake in the paddleboat. The home is cozy and inviting. The upstairs loft is so beautiful and we had to take advantage of sleeping up there with a view of the lake out the window. The host was gracious and communication was easy. The surrounding area was beautiful. We enjoyed scenic country drives, small town charm and of course the breathtaking landscape a Vermont October offers.

We had a very nice stay for our long weekend get away. The cottage has everything we needed and is very clean. We did not have the best weather, so looking forward to visiting again to be able to enjoy the kayaks and pond.

The weather was perfect for enjoying this water front property. It was so easy and convenient to have plenty of boat and floatie options right on site, and the deck was perfect for mealtimes in the sunshine. Our teen and tween didn’t have much trouble navigating the ladder to the loft bedrooms, but it is something to note if there are less agile members of your party.

We had a wonderful time during our week at the lovely Honey Bear Cottage. The cottage was beautifully decorated and well stocked with supplies to make our stay convenient and enjoyable. There was a great variety of watercraft available for our use as well. The property is well secluded to provide privacy and a restful, relaxing atmosphere.

The cabin was exactly as shown, stairs leading to top level were a dteep but worth the flight up. Absolutely great week in Vermont.

We came for a 4 day mini-vacation and we couldn’t have selected a better place to stay and get away from it all. We will definitely be back again.

We arrived to a super clean, fun space with a great yard and access to the pond. The house worked perfectly for us, with our two dogs. The owners were very responsive, and even left us a bottle of wine. We will likely book again.

We had a great stay during 2023 Memorial weekend. The house was sweet, very clean and perfect for a family with a mother in law. Everyone had their own space (even the teenager had his own bed) and we enjoyed the outside with the kayaks and paddling board. The view from the living room/kitchen is stunning and the pictures don't do it justice. Linda Jane was very responsive and very communicative. We hope to come back next Summer.

My sisters and I stayed a couple nights before Halloween. Weather was warm in day and cold at night. The home was clean and cozy. Would have liked to had a fire under the gorgeous stars but everything that was advertised in the photos for the patio was gone. The propane wood stove was not working in the parlor but the furnace was. We all thought it was very noisy which made sleeping downstairs hard to do. Beds are pretty stiff but sheets very soft. Maybe would be better to stay in summer when heat is not needed and boats are really out on the grass to use. We did not want to carry our luggage up the ladder and railing up top was shakey.
Driving to Bennington was close for shopping and lunch. Great stores and we even saw a play.

My family and I just spent a long weekend at this lake side home and had a great time. House was spotless, well stocked and instructions were provided for everything that you may not be familiar on how to use. We made use of the kayak, canoe and paddle board which we launched right from the backyard. The firepit was a plus for the cool evenings and my kids enjoyed the corn hole game they found in the garage. This is my second time renting with Linda Jane and hopefully not my last she is an awesome host.

The house is very clean, warm and welcoming. The view, patio, yard and lake are incredible. My kids enjoyed fishing, kayaking and roasting marshmallows. The stairs were steep but my parents and one child stayed downstairs and the other child slept in a pack and play so it was fine. Linda Jane was welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend!

Honey Bear Lodge was even more than I expected. LJ, my host went above and beyond for our stay. Fresh flowers, brownies and a bottle of wine awaited us on the table. I don't think LJ forgot one single detail in this beautiful house. Who doesn't love an amazing view from your backyard with a lake. Canoe and kayaks await you. Glorious morning sunrises as you sip your coffee on the back deck. If I could of rated higher than 5 stars, would have been a ten.
Get in touch with LJ, you will not be dissappointed.

We had a wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful stay and fell in love with your Awesome Bear Lake Cottage! The view of the Lake is Amazing! The property was very clean, comfortable and updated. Linda the host is very attentive and gracious. A generous assortment of watercraft was provided, which was enjoyed by all. Great location, very private with the feeling of seclusion. But only 8 miles away from the town of Bennington, which provides a wide range of restaurants and stores. We would love to return and stay longer!
Linda, thank you so much again!

Perfect relaxing getaway
My dog and I had such a great stay at this cute welcoming home. Just walking in the door, I could tell effort went into making sure things were perfect. The kayaks were great and so much fun to take around the very clean lake. My dog loved splashing in the shallow water around the shoreline. The fire pit, gas grill, plenty of chairs outside, well equipped kitchen…..the view! It’s everything I was looking for. I slept downstairs as my dog would never make it up the steep stairs, but bed was comfortable. Owner was great to communicate with. Will definitely look to stay again and would recommend to friends. Just bring your bug spray for when outside!

When we first walked in, we had the surprise of music playing for us on the TV. I thought we walked into the wrong house!
We then discovered LJ left us a bottle of wine & a cake since we had mentioned we were there for a bday weekend. Unfortunately the weather was not our friend that weekend so we were unable to enjoy any of the outdoor amenities. The cottage was clean & cozy. It was the perfect size for myself, husband & 9 year old. There are steep loft stairs to keep in mind, no doors on the guest room & kids room if you are looking for more privacy. LJ was very attentive during our stay, texted & emailed back quickly. Great communication. We really enjoyed the propane stove in the living room. Their was a few times the neighbors had there music playing a little too loud for my taste. I thought the beds were very comfortable.
I would like to come back in the summer to enjoy the lake!

Small cottage with large yard, lots of running space, nice view. Super clean. Though small it's well thought out. Just right for the two of us and our tiny fur balls. Owner very responsive.

Can't imagine a better place
We had another wonderful time once again at the lake! This is the second time we stayed at one of Linda Jane's cottages (last year we were at the Moose). She is a wonderful host whose hospitality is unrivaled. The setting is beautiful and her cottages are perfect. There is so much to do in the area, and when at the cottage there is kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, and a beach just down the street. The back porch is wonderful to just sit and relax in the evening. Wonderful place!

We had a great time! The house had everything we needed for the four of us and our dog. Loved being right on the lake with kayaks and paddle board to easily launch from the back yard. Tons hiking trails close by. Cooked all meals at home. Kitchen had all the essentials. Would definitely recommend this beautiful vacation home.

We really enjoyed our stay at Big Pond. The house was super clean and had all the amenities we needed (both inside and out). Linda Jane is super responsive and very helpful. The property is private (no neighbors in view) with a great view of the lake and plenty of space for lawn games. There are also good hiking trails (up to Little Pond) right from the house, as well as tons to do nearby. And dog friendly too - which was great! The lake is small but good for fishing, kayaking, etc. - the best swimming is from the beach which is a two min walk away (swimming is possible by the house too but it is shallow there and you need to walk out a ways). Would come back again for sure!
