Anyone know the name of the movie?

I watched these movies (there was a series of them I belive) as a child, maybe 15-20 years ago. It was about a family that left their city lives to go live on a mountain. They encountered many adventures, where homeschooled and had a pet black bear named Sampson. I know that's pretty vague, but anyone have any ideas? I would love to be able to find these movies again!
