Great place for a quick Blue Ridge mountain "fix". Property was quiet, felt private and had a nice view from the porch. A bonus for us was a visit from 2 black bears one evening at dusk. We enjoyed observing them forage near the woods (from the inside).

Charming Cabin in Spectacular Mountain Location

I just completed a four night stay with a friend at "Little Bear" and loved every minute of it! The cabin is in a secluded and absolutely beautiful mountain location. The cabin is immaculately clean, very comfortable and cozy. it was fully stocked with everything I needed for my stay. Will definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.

Very nice little cabin, quiet tucked in the woods plenty of space to walk the dog. We made s’mores at the fire pit, and it was fun to relax in their hammock. There’s no stove, but they do have a griddle that you can cook on microwave, toaster oven, coffee, pot, and all the cooking utensils you could use to cook breakfast. Mountian city is only 10 to 15 minutes away where we found a Food Lion and grabbed all our grocery needs.

Clean and private getaway for family

We had a wonderful stay at Little Bear with our children. It is ideally located to enjoy several different activities throughout your stay. The cabin is an easy hour drive to Damascus, VA to ride the Creeper Trail. We also took out two polaris on Doe Mountain, the highlight of our kids' trip! Also nearby is the Watuga Lake Winery with beautiful views and live music overlooking the mountain sunset. After every day, we really enjoyed sitting around the firepit and cooking smores. Overall, the cabin was well stocked and very clean. We would recommend this for a couple or small family!
