“Very Pleased!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2013

I stayed here for two nights and it was awesome! I was looking for a home away from home feel and this was truly the place. This trip was just what the doctor ordered! The front and back yard view is spectacular. I felt like I was part of the family. This was the best get-a-way that I've had in... More

“Fabulous B&B-exceeded all expectations!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 April 2013 via mobile

We had such a great time at Abear's Den B &B. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the front porch in the comfortable adirondack rocking chairs, drinking coffee overlooking the beautiful park like grounds-so peaceful! Massages in our room arranged by our wonderful hostess Edith were deliciously relaxing. The breakfasts were sublime. Could not recommend more highly!!!

We stayed here for two nights during Spring Break of March '13. We were closing up the last leg of our road trip and decided to do some hiking in the Ouachita National Forest. We were greeted warmly the first evening and were shown to our room, the Grande Bear Room. It was cozy and relaxing and came with a... More

“CMA Retreat”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 March 2013

Iron Mountain near Mena, Arkansas is a beautiful retreat. A Bear's Den B&B is icing on the cake! Ms. Edith treats you like family and the amenities are more than sufficient to allow anyone to feel at home. Hotels and most other overnight stays are good in the area, but A Bear's Den is the BEST! There is not another... More

We were so pleased that you were able to attend the CMA Pastoral Conference again this year. AND that you chose to stay at ABears Den again! I enjoyed going to hear some of the conference speakers, and want to make that a plan for next year to do again. The Azaleas are beginning to bloom and the Dogwood trees... More

Was very pleased to have found this great B&B in far western Arkansas bordering southeast Oklahoma, As a business traveler its hard to find such a great place to stay in that area.

“Business trip that felt like a vacation!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2013

I stayed here for a business trip to Mena. It was beautiful and I couldn't have been treated better. Made me feel like it was a vacation instead of a business trip. Felt right at home. Thanks to Edith and Judy for all their hospitality.

It is always a pleasure to have Judy on board, she is a very talented and interesting addition for ABears Den to have on staff. She likes to cook and she likes people! Mena (and ABearsDen) is fortunate to have her! We look forward to having you on your next business trip to our area. 😀 More

“Everything was PERFECT!”

We stayed with Edith in early November as a jumping off place for making Talimena Drive to see the fall foliage. Everything about our stay was perfect! Edith made us most comfortable from the moment we arrived, even making our dinner reservations for us. As a self-professed foodie, I have to say breakfast was AMAZING! Could not have asked for...

ABears Den Was excited to see the review you posted! Hope we set the stage for your holidays to be great! We had customers during the holidays, but mostly family getting together. Of course having snow on Christmas Day was a real treat for all. It has been a long time maybe since 2000, since we had snow on Christmas!... More
