Beautiful cabin - it was missing the Keurig but thankfully Ingles close by and able to purchase some regular coffee.
Some road work was being done so a slight inconvenience but overall excellent stay.
The cabin was beautiful and well appointed. The view was spectacular. We used it as our base as we traveled from Blue Ridge, Helen, and Tallulah. Quiet and peaceful place to stay.
Cabin was very clean and kitchen was well equipped with all of our needs. View was amazing! Neighbor is very quiet and a great place to go and relax. Would highly recommend!

2nd time here and really love the property. Beautiful view, quiet neighborhood on the mountain, lovely wood cabin on the inside. Plenty of room for 4-6 people.
This was our second stay at Bears Eye View and it was just as good as the first. This is a beautiful home with great views of Chatuge. It is well equipped and has everything you need for a mountain get away. Highly recommend and I'm sure we will be back.
Great cabin! Great porch with awesome view! Roads slightly steep but not for long. The cabin is pet friendly but there was no sign of previous pet visitors. Great stay!

This home is superb. Warm and so very comfortable. Quiet nature and night stars for miles. There is a steep drive up, with tight bends but relatively short and all paved.
We stay in Hiawassee a lot and love it more and more every time.
This place is very nice with a great kitchen window and porch view.
The host made last minute special accommodations for us that made our stay possible. Highly recommend.

This home is superb. Warm and so very comfortable. Quiet nature and night stars for miles. There is a steep drive up, with tight bends but relatively short and all paved. So very close to Hiawassee and Hayesville towns.
This cabin is gorgeous and an extraordinary place close to heaven with a perfect location to relax and enjoy nature, pretty close to Lake Chatuge with wonderful accommodations!
Everything was so perfect, very clean and organized.
Loved every single spot of the cabin, it was enjoyable and in order! The concierge, was very kind answering my messages and very helpful to get the new main door code. We really enjoyed our stay! Hope we'll comeback very soon!
This cabin is wonderful. It's clean. It's comfortable and, the views from the front porch are breathtaking. The kitchen is well appointed for easy cooking. The bed in the primary bedroom on the first floor is very comfortable. The living area is spacious. Communication with the property manager was easy. It's a steep drive up the mountain on a narrow road but it's paved and not difficult like other cabins we have stayed in. This place gets an A rating from us and if we stay in the area again, it would be the first place we would check for availability.
We could not have asked for a better more beautiful place! We kept extending our stay from 4 nights to 10, Pricilla was awesome and the cabin was perfect in every way - we have stayed in many VRBO properties US, Italy and Costa Rica - they were great, BUT Haiwassee has been the best.

Cheryl, you guys were awesome guest.! So glad you enjoyed your stay and decided to stay a couple extra days, and then a couple more days. lol...you're welcome back any time.
I have stayed at many rental properties and VRBO's. I was visiting Hiawassee on family matters and rented this cabin. Wow! It was absolutely the nicest place I have every stayed, pet friendly or otherwise. I travel with my small dog and have found "pet friendly" is often code for lower quality, smelly properties. Not so with this house. It was immaculate and fantastic. Everything seemed brand new, including the cabin itself. High quality building materials, appliances, furniture, even the decorating. Everything worked perfectly, including the fireplace which added an extra dimension to the stay. The bed was clean, seemed brand new and VERY comfortable. The neighborhood is secluded and quiet. It was winter and although it is located in a "high end" neighborhood, it seemed many of them were vacation homes - I didn't see alot of other people around. I slept better than in my own bed as it was so comfortable and quiet. There is plenty of streets for dog walking, if you don't mind walking a hill or two. I give this place my highest rating and would recommend it to anyone!

Falsely Advertised as Wheelchair Accessible
Bed in the only main floor bedroom is not accessible for a person of average height, who depends on a walker, much less someone depending on a wheelchair.
Because of this, we were forced to cut our stay short. And the property manager was not willing to consider any amount of a refund whatsoever.
Along with receiving confirmation of our booking we also received a picture of the cabin which wasvery different from the online picture. So at that time we reviewed the online pictures again. Looking closely at the pictures we questioned the property manager about the height of the bed on the main floor. The property manager assured us that the picture must be distorted, because “it’s a normal height bed”.
Unfortunately we discovered that was not true after arriving at the cabin in the evening.
We were supposedly staying in a "wheelchair accessible" cabin, for our 80 year old lady friend, who depends on her walker.
We were very, very disappointed with this booking.
We were pleased to see the fall colors in God's beautiful creation.

This house is absolutely Wheelchair accessible. No false advertisement here!
It is not however handicap accessible and we never claimed to be. This guest NEVER one time mentioned he was bringing someone who was handicap and needed certain things in order to stay at the property. We also did not say anything about a distorted picture. The photos are ALL very clear. I would suggest to future renters if a handicap person were accompanying you on a trip, make sure you let the property manager know so that they can guide you in the right direction. We did not offer any refund during this peak season because the guest should have been responsible and let us know what his needs were. Unfair review on his part.
