Guest Comments
"We really enjoyed your cabin! We come up here frequently and this is one of the nicest and most comfortable places we have been. Wish we could stay longer. Stuart & Jennifer, Anderson, SC"
"Coincidently, we were schedule to stay at Bear Necessities in July...we found the winter beauty delightful. The decorated Christmas tree and stockings and few other tasteful holiday decorations also added to the charm of this lovely cabin. It is apparent that you care about the enjoyment of vacation time of your guests, and you succeeded. The five of us were quite comfortable with the upper two floors. Ric and Ellie, Raleigh, NC."
