Great cabin!

We spent a long weekend at Bear Den and it was fantastic! The pictures were an exact representation of the property. Stocked firewood on the front porch was a great addition. We loved the fireplace and had it going all the time. We will most certainly be back. Thank you for a great stay!

Great cozy cabin

Cabin was great! It exceeded all expectations. It’s situated in a nice quiet neighborhood with lots of trees. The fireplace is very nice and the cabin is stocked with lots of firewood. It makes for a very cozy experience. The location is great as it’s close to Boone, Blowing Rock, Banner Elk, and Sugar Mountain. The cabin is located on the same mountain where they have the largest snow tubing.

Quaint woodsy cabin

We really enjoyed our stay. Sooo quiet, good amenities, and the kids loved the pool table. TV seems to be just cable, not a smart tv, so just be aware if you have people in your party that care about such things. :). We just tossed the kids outside. ;)

Great place w/central location

Great place with a central location to all the local attraction. (Grandfather Mtn/Boone/Blowing Rock/Banner Elk) Comes with everything you may need for a short or extended stay. Our home is in a beach community and we thought the house was a little more secluded than it was, but very quiet neighborhood, great for any type of get away.

We liked the cozy cabin and clean, safe space. It was up atop a windy mountain so use caution when driving there. The cabin could use updates but it looks like they updated the bathrooms.

Amazing!!

This cabin was wonderful! It is within 5 min of Sugar Mountain, 25-30 min from Beech, 25-30 min from Boone, 15 min from Grandfather Mountain, 25-30 min from Blowing Rock, and 20 min from Jonas Ridge snow tubing! We ate at Pedalin Pig, Stonewall, Banner Elk Cafe, and Sorrentos - all were excellent and have kids menus. We really enjoyed the proximity to all these places. We LOVED the coziness of Bear Den! We saw deer everyday from the porch, our family loved the pool table, and it is very spacious! We can’t wait to go back!!!

The convenience location was excellent. The cabin was true to the listing. They need a lock code on the door instead of picking up the key and dropping the key off.

Cozy cabin in the mountain

We enjoyed our stay, cute and cozy cabin. The kids really enjoyed seeing the wildlife from the front porch. The only thing I didn’t love was the fact that we had to drive to the main office to get the keys to the property, I feel like upgrading to digital/keypad locks would have made it so much easier for us and it could have save us the extra drive. Other than that the place was clean and had enough towels and blankets for our short stay.

We loved our stay at the Bear Den! The wood burning fireplace, cozy cabin feel, and surrounding area/neighborhood was perfect for 4 adults and an infant. Quiet area, lots of deer sightings, but still convenient to Boone and other amenities! We would definitely stay here again!

Awesome Weekend with the Boys

Went up to Boone for my brother's bachelor party and everything about this property was perfect for the amount of guys we had with us (5). It is in a very central location to activities such as hiking, kayaking, etc. The restaurants in the area are all great. The cabin itself was clean and spacious enough for 5 guys to hang out and sleep comfortably. There is nothing bad I can say about this property.

Beautiful Cabin

The cabin was beautiful and the surroundings were so relaxing. The drive to the cabin is a bit daunting if you aren't used to those types of roads (just a heads up for those who aren't comfortable with straight-up windy roads). My only issue is that the pictures imply one of the smaller ponds is in the backyard of the cabin. That is actually not accurate. The smaller pond is between the three cabins that are behind this one. It wasn't a big deal - expect a significant part of our trip was for fishing purposes. We found the two larger ponds and enjoyed them but I felt compelled to comment on the picture that says the pond is in the backyard. Thank you for a nice stay.

First vaca in the mountains

Everything was really easy to book. The property was dusty loaded in cobwebs, light fixtures have definitely not been cleaned in some time. Dirt behind furniture. WiFi was an important thing for us to have access to due to traveling so far away from other family that was ill, the property offered that. However none of us could get the WiFi to work for us.
