Stayed Feb 12, 2026Second time staying here and we will continue to come back. It’s perfect for our family of four. Kids love being in the loft. Hot tub is amazing. They have thought of all the little details. The grounds are beautiful, short walk is a waterfall and a pond. The cabin is far away enough for a peaceful retreat but close enough to be in banner elk in less than 30 minutes. Make sure you have 4WD if there is any kind of snow and take the roads they suggest. It’s a winding road up the mountain but so worth it. We can’t wait to be back!

The host was communicative, the cabin was clean and cozy, and the fire place hot tub were wonderful. The location was also great - it was the perfect balance of feeling tucked away while also being close to town. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back soon!

Stayed Nov 12, 2025This was our second stay in this home and we hope to return next year. It was clean, inviting, comfortable, and well-appointed. So much so that we spent most of our time hanging out at the cabin rather than the usual touristy things though we did do some of that as well.

Stayed Sep 11, 2025This is a beautiful secluded cabin. Very nicely decorated. We had a great time just relaxing on the porch swing, hanging out in the hot tub and we spent a few hours around the fire ring. The nearby town of Banner Elk is a very nice place to visit, and we had two delicious meals there. Thank you for letting us rent your cabin !

Stayed Jun 27, 2025We brought our children on a summer vacation to experience the beauty of the mountains. We live near the coast.We loved the incadescent beauty of Bearclaw Cabin. We felt renewed and we enjoyed hiking and the lovely pond onsite. We enjoyed our time at Tweesie Railroad, Grandfather Mountain and Mystery Hill. We also enjoyed local shopping at Apple Hill Store, downtown Banner Elk and downtown Boone.Furthermore, we all gathered around the campfire at night, told ghost stories, roasted marshmallows and made S'mores.Additionally, we swam at Laurel Creek Falls and enjoyed the majestic beauty of the waterfall.We would LOVE to return to Bearclaw cabin one day!

Stayed Jun 20, 2025Up and down and all around. I never thought we would get there but, well worth the wait. This property has everything you'll need. We walked around, and went to the waterfall on property. We played in the creek by the pond. We even found some great rocks. The alpine coaster was super fun for everyone. We went gem mining and had a blast. Wish we could have stayed longer but this was a 3 day stop on the way to Carolina Beach. We got mountains and beach on this family vacation.

Stayed Jun 13, 2025Such a lovely cabin, stocked very well and very clean. The location was perfect and beautiful! The cabin has a hot tub, but can only be set at 101, enjoyable, but wish we could have set it at a higher temp as it felt like a warm bath. Otherwise, everything was great. Thank you!

Stayed May 23, 2025Everything was exactly as described and we enjoyed our stay very much. WiFi and television were excellent. Beds were very comfortable. Hot tub easy to use. Kitchen well stocked. Tap water is fantastic! What we really appreciate is the 11am checkout time. The new trend of 10am at most places is just too stressful for our family. We like to leave the place the way we found it. We came in the back way and that is quite a long and winding road. We recommend coming in from Banner Elk, even if GPS brings you in the back way when coming in from the north. Our only wish would be for more chairs at the fire pit-there were only 3. We will be staying here again.

They even let us use their sleds. The cabin was very warm, despite the cold temps and heavy winds. We had a great stay. Definitely will be back in the spring/summer. And would like to try skiing again too, close to both Beech and Sugar.

Stayed Dec 27, 2024My family and I stayed here for the week after Christmas. I have stayed in a lot of fabulous B&B's, nice hotels, but this cabin was the best. I never longed for any of the comforts of home -- because they are all here! The couch and fireplace were very cozy. Good wifi and Roku apps on the TV. I cooked several nights and every cooking item you might need was available. Having a washer and dryer was super convenient. The hot tub was awesome. The water pressure in the shower was great and the beds were comfortable.I had a couple questions for the owners and they were super responsive and helpful! It even snowed while we were there! Quiet, secluded but only 20-30 from anywhere you want to be! Highly recommend!

Stayed Nov 15, 2024We enjoyed our weekend in Banner Elk. The cabin is basically just as photographed. We enjoyed the secluded woodsy feel. We were a bit worried about the conditions of the area after the hurricane, but wanted to be able to give back to the community with some tourists activities. We enjoyed walking around the property and seeing the waterfall, creeks, and pond. We had originally anticipated getting to fish some, but the conditions weren't ideal and and the streams are still very much in recovery. We enjoy WNC and will def be back across the mountain soon.

Stayed Oct 25, 2024We arrived late but took our time and had no issues because we followed Rebecca's directions. The cabin is clean and comfortable. The cabin had anything needed for staying in to prepare a meal and have fun with games or just watch a movie. During the day we explored the property and it's beautiful! Great place for kids to have adventures and lots of fun! The only negative (which if you like secluded it's great) was the distance to town (about 20 minutes) so go prepared to stay and enjoy all that this property has to offer!

Location was amazing as well. Far enough where you felt secluded, but right in between Boone and banner elk where you could experience both easily. Definitely recommend!!

Stayed Sep 6, 2024We made a weekend out of a Friday afternoon visit to Autumn of Oz. We drove the three hours from home in north central NC, went to Mast General Store, ate lunch at the outstanding Puerto Nuevo in Banner Elk, swapped out some books at the Banner Elk Book Exchange, saw the Oz show, and then headed off to the cabin for a weekend of exploring, hot tubbing, showing the granddaughters Anne of Green Gables for the first time, and cooking hot dogs and marshmallows out at the fire pit. The cabin was immaculate, full of DVDs and games, and even the grill was in perfect shape (usually a problem area with short term rentals). We lacked nothing for cooking and eating, and the gas fire place took the evening chill off. We weren't sure about the proximity to other cabins, but it was like being alone on the mountain since we could hear or see nothing except the crackle of our fire pit.
