The 3 Bears Cabin - an Adirondack adventure

Located ten minutes from the skiing at Whiteface Mt. and twenty-five minutes to the tourist attractions of Lake Placid, The 3 Bears Cabin, is a tranquil getaway location that is surrounded by as much excitement as you would wish to explore.

The 3 Bears Cabin is set in the solitude of the pine trees, yet is easily accessible, and a destination for family and friends. The Cabin is constructed using traditional post and beam craftsmanship where particular attention was paid to maintaining an airtight and draft free environment. The all-wood interior will surround you with a warm and comfortable feeling that can only be experienced in a home that is constructed in the post and beam fashion.

The main floor features cathedral-ceilings, and an open kitchen floor plan allows guests to interact while cooking and dining.

When it is time to retire for the evening, The 3 Bears Cabin will accommodate 6 guests and well trained dogs.

The cabin features two downstairs bedrooms, each with massive cedar mortise and tenon, queen-sized beds. The beds were crafted in the rustic tradition but the subtle pillow-top mattress will certainly soothe your tired muscles and ensure a restful night's sleep.

If one is looking to accommodate additional guests there is a comfortable queen-sized futon, with extra thick mattress, situated in front of the glass-fronted wood stove. Though the guests who choose to sleep on the futon will not have a traditional bed, they will however, have the experience of falling asleep in front of the fireplace while gazing up into the beautiful post and beam rafters.

The 3 Bears Cabin also has a bath on each floor where one can take a hot shower and prepare for the adventures right at your doorstep.

Great place to stay near Whiteface / Lake Placid.
This was our 3rd time staying at Three Bears and it was perfect as usual. The cabin is amazing. It’s in a great location (surrounded by woods) and only 15 minutes from Whiteface and about 30 minutes from Lake Placid. Will definitely be going back again.

Stayed here with my love over Valentine’s Day while he skied the face. Had to bring our dog last minute. The host was so gracious got back to us quickly for early check-in and let us bring our pup. The home was so beautiful and had everything we could’ve needed. Absolutely would stay here again.

Terrific cabin: clean, cozy and comfortable.
Perfect cabin for a winter stay. Clean, tidy and comfortable. Kitchen is nicely arranged and great for cooking meals and baking brownies. 15 minutes from Wilmington Dam and 25-30 minutes from Lake Placid Village. Nathan provided a daily plow to handle the three consecutive nights of snow perfectly. Our dog loved it too. Just be prepared for stairs to get to the bedrooms or walk around them through the back. Would highly recommend. Would definitely stay again

3 Bears
Nice comfortable camp and quiet area, we enjoyed our stay. Instructions for entry code didn’t match and confusing keypad on the door handle. No wood for Fire pit only 2-3 pieces of wood for wood stove. Recommend updating welcome sheet with internet codes and instructions for the multiple heating options and controls. Bedrooms in basement nice, but has a damp musty smell. musky smell.

Great Getaway
3 Bears is very clean and in a peaceful place. I loved the layout of the upstairs - nice open concept. It was one of the best-stocked rentals I've been at with everything from kitchen items to band aides and bug spray! The only down side was the narrow, steep stairs to the down stairs bedrooms. We are in our 70's and in good shape but I can see where this could be a problem for someone who has any mobility issues. We could not get our German Shepherd to go down these stairs, but luckily there is a door leading outside for the downstairs so we could let him in that way at night to be near us. Everything else was great!

Hot
For some reason the upstairs was ungodly hot. You couldn’t stay in to long because there were no air conditioners and it was July! The stairs down to the bedrooms were very steep so not got any anyone with knee or back issues. That being said it was cute cozy and clean.

A great cabin in the woods
Three Bears cabin is a great venue. It worked out perfectly for us. Two large bedrooms on the lower floor and a large futon in the great room, a bathroom on each level and a fully equipped kitchen coupled with the great location make it an ideal vacation stay. The host was responsive by text, almost immediately. He arranged to have an issue with the grill fixed in less than a half hour. We were more than pleased. We highly recommend 3 Bears Cabin. We’re sure you will enjoy your stay.
