Dancing Bear Cabin offers a getaway from the crowds and noise of condos and hotels. Our cabin is located in the unincorporated mountain community of Ute Park. Just off of State HWY 64 between the Philmont Boy Scout Ranch and the Cimarron Canyon State Park. Dancing Bear Cabin sits up high on the mountain side tucked away in the pines. You will enjoy the stunning views from the deck that runs the entire length of the cabin. Wildlife is abundant in the area, with elk, deer, turkey and an occasional bear. We rarely have a day that we don’t see our resident deer and turkey roaming around the property. Combine all of that with the stunning mountain views and we have what we believe is the perfect place to make memories with friends and family.


We close “DANCING BEAR CABIN” in October and open it back up in the spring, so we thought this was perfect name for our cabin in the woods.
The Bear awakens from his winter’s sleep and celebrates by dancing to welcome the spring.  This dance was given to the Ute people by the bear.  The Bear Dance is the most ancient dance of the Ute people. When the Ute bands gathered for the Bear Dance it allowed relatives to socialize, while at the same time providing an opportunity for the young people to meet and for marriages to be negotiated.
