Come experience what Mother Nature means by "streaming"; soothing rapids offer a simple download of peace, serenity and romance creek side at this cozy hideaway --> put civilization on Pause for a second and head to the mountains! Owner welcomes you to Bear Creek Cabin and invites you to relax and connect with nature and your significant other! "The Bear" is nestled on a wooded hillside in the Blue Ridge Mountains region overlooking the beautiful rushing waters of Little Reed Island Creek, near Fancy Gap, VA. Quaint and quiet, this 1 bedroom / 1 bath full log cabin is perfect for that romantic weekend getaway, or a week of fun-filled outdoor activities. The "Bear" accommodates up to 4 guests and features a bedroom w/ queen size log bed, and a sleeper sofa in the vaulted main room. The 2 person indoor Jacuzzi spa/tub with gas fireplace view is perfect for that intimate, relaxing bath experience - a 'Beary' nice way for a 'couple a cubs' to spend the evening, or for a lady to decompress. The separate bath boasts a full oversized shower with seat. A fully appointed kitchen and breakfast nook serves all your meal preparation and dining needs. So 'skirt the yurt' and 'leaf the treehouse' glamping to the Tarzans-->sleep like a log instead with a down-home wood cabin experience! Outside, the full length covered porch seating area provides amazing views of the creek, complimented by the soothing sounds of nature and rapids below. There's a bistro table set for enjoying that perfect cup of morning Joe or romantic dinner. Or enjoy your private wooded lower deck perched nearer the creek's edge. The lower level private game room is furnished with a pool/ping pong table, darts, card table, board games, and additional sofa bed seating for loads of fun. A full washer and dryer also complete the space. A charcoal style BBQ grill enhances the outdoor fun on the upper level (located in front of the cabin - charcoal by Renter). The shared outdoor fire ring is the ideal spot for enjoying those evenings filled with toasting S'mores or glasses of wine together. Our creek side gazebo with swing, and private wooden deck sitting area, afford peaceful rest or reading pleasure while fully immersed in natural woods. There is plenty to see, do and explore in the region. Hiking in nearby Devils Den, Pilot Mountain or any of a number of state parks close by. Fishing on the New River.

Fantastic cabin for a quick weekend getaway. There is a twin cabin right near by that shares a fire pit with this one. Would be perfect for two couples, one in each cabin, if you could arrange it.
Not enough water pressure or hot water for the jacuzzi. Jacuzzi didn't work. Found out later there was an obscure switch to turn it on because the main switch was broken. No water our last night for hours.

Inaccurate. Button is clearly labeled to operate jets and location was texted as well - tenant inability to operate properly. As for water service interruption due to equipment issue - service was off for 1 hr 12 minutes after problem reported to Owner @ 10:03pm Service and full pressure was restored promptly @ 11:12pm. Your review is not accurate. Additionally a 25% refund was issued to guest for that minor inconvenience! You'll be happier @ the Ritz Carlton I surmise.
Nice cozy cabin for those seeking a nice get away. No wifi or cable if you are wanting to have a break from technolgy and just enjoy the serenity of nature.
Beautiful scenery and peaceful...wish TV sizes were bigger. Our Jet tub wasn't working...Owner did communicate with us about this incident...but overall we had a peaceful weekend. Nice property!!
