Our stay at the Bear Mountain Inn was a fantastic experience. We stayed in the Grizzly Suite, and we were very happy there. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious and Lorraine and Rickie made us feel warmly welcomed. But the winter scenary itself was the most spectacular part of our stay. The snow was piled high and a fresh layer arrived daily. The owners of the inn arranged a beautiful horse-drawn sleighride for my husband and I which capped our magical stay at the inn.

Bear Mountain Inn
Feb 15, 2008
If you are looking for a warm friendly place to rest your soul or head out for some fun I would highly recommend the Bear Mountain Inn. The inn keepers were extremely helpful and accommodating to all our wants and wishes as well as being a wealth of knowledge about the surrounding area. It is a beautiful location and the entire facility was spotless...can't wait to go back again!

Bear Mountain Inn
Feb 12, 2008
We were thoroughly impressed with the amount of comfort and hospitality given to us by Lorraine, Ricki, and Michelle at the Bear Mountain Inn! They definitely made us feel right at home. We just wish we could have stayed longer! I would, without a doubt, recommend this superb B&B to anyone wishing to see the beauty of Maine!

Bear Mountain Inn
Feb 11, 2008
My husband and I stayed in the Sugar Bear Cottage at The Bear Mountain in last fall. We enjoyed it so much that we booked the same cottage again for their Valentines Package. (We are going this weekend!)
Everything was so comfortable,warm and cozy. Lorraine & Ricky made our stay extra special. They even helped us with reservations for dinner.
My favorite was soaking in the clawfoot tub in the evening. The breakfast was 5 star with fresh fruit,scones,french toast, and the best coffee we ever had.
I can't say enough about how special and personal our mini vacation was!

Bear Mountain Inn
Jan 27, 2008
The Bear Mountain was more than I ever expected it to be, The inn keepers and all guests were incredible. Everyone made you feel so welcome. We took advantage of one of the elopement packages and it we could not have asked for better day. They made the day so special. Even other guests got us gifts and congratulated us. I would go back in a heartbeat and would recommend them to anyone. I could not have asked for anything better on such a special day.
