Beautiful and peaceful home

Four friends and I enjoyed our time in the cabin. We particularly enjoyed the spacious kitchen (with every tool you could need), the hot tub, and that we each could have a room of our own. Playing fusball and shooting pool were a lot of fun. Oh and the stars there! It was incredible to see the stars at night there. (Most of us live in big cities.)

Our stay at the Bears Den

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. My family and I were celebrating my Mom’s 60th! However, there are a few things that could be improved upon. The place was not as clean as I would have expected there were dead bugs all over the counters when we arrived, but we chalked that up as staying in a cabin in the “woods” it’s bound to happen. The hot tub was not as maintained as we would have liked, and this was one of the things we were looking forward to MOST. When we arrived the water level was extremely low and water was not reaching the filter, we filled it up to the appropriate level but the chemicals seemed off as well. All the handles to adjust the jets were missing as well as one of the headrests to one of the seats. It was an older hot tub so my guess is the handles cracked over time and were maybe removed and not replaced. The upstairs was very WARM at night and was difficult to sleep. Overall, we made the best of it and my mom still enjoyed her 60th birthday in the mountains!

Just right

We were looking for a place to meet in the middle for the Holidays. The cabin was exactly as listed. Clean, spacious and enough room for everyone to enjoy. Kitchen was larger than expected and fully stocked. We made 2 large meals and had enough plates and pots & pans. The lower level was a tad chilly as we ran out of wood for the stove but got a bundle at a local store. Beds were super comfortable. Bring some toilet paper though. Would definitely rebook.

Bears Den

Overall a good stay for thanksgiving with the family. spacious and clean, definitely a "cabin in the woods" as the trees must really block any mountain views in the summer. The river is about a 1/2mile down the hill and we noticed that most of the riverfront was posted property. Needs an electric skillet, fixed foosball table.

Mountain R&R

The house lived up to the billing. It was comfortable and extremely well kept. The kitchen was fully equipped and ready for culinary creativity. The seclusion yet accessibility to regional attractions makes it a great choice. The owner was very accommodating and accessible. Overall a great choice and one worth repeating.

20th Anniversary

Google tried to send us to a different house, but luckily we arrived with enough light to see the correct house! Make sure you follow the ones given to you when you book! The pictures should probably be updated on the listing, but even still, we were not disappointed. In fact, we were pleasantly surprised by the size of the master bedroom and bathroom! Hubby and I loved spending our 20th anniversary here and would love to come back with the family!

Beautiful trip to Shenandoah National Park with great friends!

The cabin was absolutely beautiful, clean and full of activities! My friends and I came here from NY the weekend to disconnect and do some hiking in the park. The owner of the property was very quick to respond with questions and suggestions for our stay. I can definitely say if I ever come back to do some more hiking, I will make sure the cabin is available again before I pick dates! 10/10
