Property Description
Welcome to the Ursa Major House. This house was acquired in the spring of 2022. All furnishings and hot tub are brand new. Every bedroom has had a mini split unit installed, providing each room with heat and air-conditioning. The kitchen/living room also has a mini split unit. This system is additional to the baseboard heating system found throughout the home. This 4 bedroom and 3 bath house with private wooded yard is your perfect year round getaway. Minutes away from Sunday River resort, Mt. Abrams, Bethel center, Cross country skiing, snowmobile and ATV trails. Amenities include a fully stocked kitchen mudroom, game room, hot tub, fire pit, 2 car garage and air conditioning. This is one of the only properties in Bethel that comes with garage access. Guests will be provided with a virtual garage door opener via an app during their stay. I have had two full size trucks parked inside, so it is definitely large. Keep your vehicle out of the elements. No need to clean snow off of your car before heading off to the mountain to ski. 1-2 cars can be parked in the garage, depending on the size of the vehicles.

Very responsive We happened to rent during a week of terrible storms and flooding. Under these extenuating circumstances, Trevor was supportive and helpful. The place is set up perfectly for a family and we would definitely go there again.

Five stars PLUS Great ski vacation with family. Trevor clearly put a lot of care and effort into designing and stocking the house- from games and entertainment to kitchen necessities and more! No detail was too small and nothing was neglected. We had plenty of room and everything we needed. Thanks for a great vacation and we hope to be back soon!

A very Nice House With a Great Owner One of the nicest and well equipped VRBOs we have stayed in. The owner was easy to communicate with and very responsive. This house worked out great for a Sunday River ski weekend.

Absolutely perfect Trevor was a fantastic host and super accommodating. The house is stunning and comes fully stocked with everything you could think of. The locations was amazing as it’s 15 mins or less from Sunday river and even closer to town and stores. Definitely coming back next year!

Fantastic place We stayed here as a group of 9 friends for a ski weekend and this place was absolutely perfect for us. The house was extremely clean and a great size for our group. We loved the hot tub, living room setup and games in the house. Sunday River is only a 12 minute drive from the house. Trevor, the host, was wonderfully communicative and our check-in and check-out processes were very easy. We would absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful House My family had a wonderful time in this house. The house is very well appointed, we loved the fact that towels were provided for use of the hot tub, this is never the case in most places. The house is decorated nicely and made us feel right at home. I highly recommend this property and I will definitely stay here again, Thank you Trevor.

Christmas Ski Weekend Perfect house for our family Christmas ski weekend and probably our best VRBO experience. The house was clean, fully stocked, and even decorated for Christmas. Trevor made sure we had everything we needed and quickly responded to our questions. The house was spacious and had large common areas for hanging out. The location was perfect for skiing at Sunday River and the hot tub was great for after a day on the slopes. The kids were kept busy with all the toys in the basement. The host has clearly put a lot of thought and effort into the rental to make sure guest have everything they need while there. Would 10/10 recommend this property.
