Bear Valley

The community of Bear Valley has the reputation of being up-scale, and it is. But many of the homes in the village are moderately priced and rent for reasonable prices. Also, Bear Valley is one of the few places along Highway 4 where you will find condominiums for rent. There is no driving on the residential roads in the winter, so you may have to use the local snowmobile taxi to reach the home your rent. Some rental agencies provide snowmobile service to your cabin on your arrival and from it on your departure. Condos are all accessible by car. Many homes rent for between $270 and $310 per night, condos as little as $140 per night.

Sky High Ranch
