    Cabin was wonderful: exactly as described. Only issue I had was that I was staying there to ride motorcycles in the mountains and was pulling a trailer. The gravel road to the cabin is very narrow and steep but navigable if you have a small trailer.

    This cabin was perfect for our family weekend getaway. The house was clean and had everything that we needed. The hosts were very responsive when we had any questions. We also loved using the fire pit. It was a great experience all around!

    Our third stay here. We love the home, love the area. The home is perfectly situated close to all the small towns, yet isolated enough to feel cozy. Great fireplace.

    Loved the cabin, not easy to get to, charged alot for cleaning but i noticed only surface cleaning was done no deep cleaning definitely no dusting. No baking pans available though, muffin pan definitely needs to be bought. Oh your site said check out was noon i think but note in fridge with list of do’s said 10 am check out. Loved back porch view. Def. foung again. Thankyou

    This was our 2nd stay at Bear Pause. Updated counters and appliances look good. Cabin is easy to get to and close to Maggie Valley/Waynesville area. Fireplace is nice on the cold mountain days. Bear pause will stay on our November trips to the area.

    We recently stayed here as a getaway to experience a bit of Fall. It was our second stay. We love the area, the nearness to small towns around us, as well as being close to Asheville. But the bonus is being so close yet far enough away to feel like we don't have to go anywhere else to enjoy the solitude this cabin provides. Additionally, we love being able to build a fire in the fireplace.
