Older Cabin
Overall really liked the area of the cabin. Was clean as far as countertops bathroom but deep clean it wasnt. Had a bad oder to it as soon as you walk in. Lots of spiderwebs all over. I know its in the woods but could have been way better as far as that goes.

I loved Bears Rest cabin with exception of hot tub not working well there were 2 jet settings only 1 worked and lights in hot tub did not work. Other than not being able to get relaxed in hot tub the cabin was really nice bed was comfortable AC worked good water pressure for shower was good but extremely little water pressure for bathroom sink. Overall I would definitely stay in Bears Rest cabin again.

Would stay here again.
This place is very comfortable and we had no problems checking in and out. The back porch faces another home and the road but its hard to see anything through the trees so its very peaceful. The only thing we did not like is the first night there were dogs barking all night making it hard to sleep. The second and third night were much quieter.

Very nice place to stay, very quiet. But as to the ramp it needs a railing to make it safer for the step up. Also the outside lights at the driveway were not working.

The Bears Rest is a great little rustic cabin that's perfect for a couples getaway. The cabin was clean and fairly secluded. It wasn't hard to find or get to. We would definitely stay here again!
