About this property

Crotched Mountain Historic Inn

Enjoy a stay in one of our beautiful rooms at the Blue Bear Inn, a cozy New England retreat where rustic charm meets modern comfort. Nestled on 54 scenic acres, the inn offers a peaceful escape with walking trails, inviting common spaces, and warm hospitality.
This room includes a full private bathroom, a modern mini fridge for added convenience, and space for a rollaway bed if you choose to add one onto your stay, making it a great choice for couples or small families looking for a peaceful escape. Easy access, tranquil surroundings, and a touch of history make it a guest favorite.

Named after John and Rose Perry, who lovingly revived the inn in 1976, this cozy ground-floor retreat blends warmth, history, and modern comfort. Located in the East Wing, The Perry Room features a plush queen bed and two comfy chairs—perfect for unwinding with serene views of the forest and mountains. Keep an eye on the Japanese Dogwood just outside; bluebirds love to make it their home!

Guests can unwind in the shared common room, complete with a working fireplace for cooler months, as well as games, books, and a TV for relaxed evenings. For those working remotely, the inn provides reliable WiFi so you can stay connected while enjoying the tranquil surroundings.

Our full-service restaurant and tavern, open Thursday through Sunday, features chef-crafted seasonal dishes and handcrafted cocktails, making it the perfect spot to gather and savor delicious meals. In the warmer months, take a refreshing dip in the outdoor pool or sip your morning coffee on the deck, soaking in the beautiful mountain views.

Outdoor enthusiasts will love our prime location—just a 3-minute drive to Crotched Mountain Ski & Ride for winter adventures and 5 minutes from Crotched Mountain Golf Club for a stunning day on the greens. Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway, an outdoor adventure, or simply to relax, the Blue Bear Inn is your perfect home away from home.

Blue Bear Inn: Quaint, Scenic and Friendly
My wife and I were in town for a family gathering and spent three nights at Blue Bear Inn. The building is very quaint and homey, but has all of the amenities you need to provide a very comfortable stay. The location is very pretty with nice views. The restaurant serves good food at reasonable prices and the bartender knows his business well. All in all we enjoyed our experience and will definitely stay there again when return,
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024
