Fall Getaway
We've spent a long, lazy weekend at Bear Paw almost every fall for the past 10 years or so. The cabin is quite rustic, but oh-so cozy and charming. We love sitting by the fireplace, dining in the little enclosed porch area- quite literally in the woods- and being lulled by the sound of the river out back. The surrounding area is beautiful for hiking and enjoying the beauty of God's creation. This little place is truly magical. Thank you, Taylors, for sharing it with us!

Great little cabin
The cabin was perfect for our annual trout fishing weekend. The only thing I can possibly note as a downside was the ceiling height and small bunks upstairs as I am very tall; Would be perfect for kids.

Weekend stay
Very rustic cozy cabin in a beautiful location near a river. The kids enjoyed playing and fishing in the nearby river. The fireplace was great to relax by and the dining area had great views of the forest. Would stay again.

We enjoyed our stay. We didn't have neighbors although there are cabins on either side so we were alone which was nice.

Secluded with a view
It's a beautiful location with a nice view and a river next door. I booked this stay for my father and he enjoyed the peace and quiet. Be warned there really is no service out there: though it may be what you're looking for. Unfortunately the landline was down when he was there and the Internet cut out on the second day, but the host was nice enough to provide another stay. Overall a nice trip but make sure to come with a buddy if you could have health issues.

Beautiful and Relaxing Stay
Any time of year is wonderful for a visit to Virginia's mountains but we feel fall is the best. Cool temperatures and gorgeous terrain, and the smell of the earth putting itself to sleep for the winter, treats the senses. I would recommend North Folk Cabins Rentals and the host (Kenneth and Margaret) for anyone wanting to relax with nature.

Beautiful cabin perfect for a family of 3-4. Our daughter loved playing outside and walking down to the creek just behind the cabin. Easy access to Crabtree falls trailhead. We hope to come back again!

This property is perfect for a relaxing vacation! It is very clean, has all the comforts of home but close enough to Staunton, Lexington, caverns, etc. (within an hour). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bear Paw.

Another great stay at Bear Paw
We absolutely love coming back year after year to Bear Paw. This well appointee rustic cabin is in the perfect location. We love being able to walk down to the bottom of the property where we are able to sit on the side of the river. Clean. Nicely furnished. We look forward to returning.

Amazing hidden gem!
Bear paw cabin was just what we needed for a weekend getaway. Everything we needed was there in the cabin, nice equipped kitchen. The weather was amazing to just sit by the river and relax. We will be back in the spring and plan to try one of the other cabins. The neighbor was super nice and helpful and even offered us firewood. Can’t wait to return.
