Papa Bears Stoves & Outdoor Living

Papa Bears Stoves & Outdoor Living is a home furnishings store in Marathon, a village in southern Cortland County. As the name suggests, its focus is stoves and outdoor living, two things that matter in a cold, rural corner of Central New York. Local shoppers can see the products in person.

A stove is a practical purchase for upstate winters, and outdoor living products stretch the useful season for decks, patios and backyards. A local shop is a good place to talk options through with someone who knows the area.
