Great experience! Marie was absolutely amazing!!! Love staying there, they made me feel like family!
I stayed at Bear Paw Motel and was genuinely impressed by the comfort, cleanliness, and hospitality. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome and cared for like I wasn’t just a guest, but part of the family. The rooms were cozy and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches that made all the difference. Whether you're passing through or staying a while, this place offers peace, quiet, and a sense of home that’s hard to find. I’ll definitely be back and I’ll be recommending Bear Paw to anyone who values warmth, simplicity, and genuine service. Management is beyond amazing and respectful.
My stay at the Bears Paw was great. For the money I don't think it can be beat anywhere in the white mountains. Super friendly and helpful manager. The room was clean and had everything I needed for a week long stay. Thank you, Maria for everything and hopefully I'll see you soon!!!
Marie made the stay so enjoyable. Rooms were clean and the community feel that we had here was excellent
I have been a customer at Bear Paw Motel. I first I was there for a week. Service was great. Rooms were clean, detailed with Wi-Fi and cleanliness. I found the rate to be at a great price. I’ve stayed at a few motels in Showlow and Pinetop and I always come back to Bear Paw Motel because I know I won’t find good service anywhere else. I like the cleanliness and I like the affordable price. I am now a month resident, and I have not found a more friendlier motel than Bear Paw Motel in Pinetop. The manager Marie is amazing!! So friendly just by her vibe will let you know that you’re gonna have a great stay at the Bear Paw Motel. Family oriented, family gatherings, great picnic/barbecue area with games. All residents here I’ve noticed get along really good just by the atmosphere. I recommend Bear Paw Motel to anyone and everyone!!!!! I give them a 5 star.
