Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re happy to hear you loved the home and its convenient location near downtown. It’s great to know the furnishings and design made your stay comfortable and enjoyable. We’d love to welcome you back again soon!
Great home, well appointed and very comfortable. Communication took a bit of effort as there was no one to reach out to on the weekends. I wonder what would have happened had we had a problem that needed to be addressed right away when the Valley Bear Farms office was closed. That said, we'd definitely come back. The place was very well appointed, clean and comfortable.

A warm welcome after our 12hr drive, the house was perfect. Well-appointed and top-level equipment in kitchen and bath. Our group of 5 mountain bikers were comfortable and appreciated the outdoor spaces.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. It is a short walk to downtown Brevard, and we could easily connect to the greenway to tour the town and breweries on our bikes. House was super clean, well equipped, with very comfortable beds. We especially enjoyed foosball and the hot tub. The owner was very responsive and made it known she was available at any time. Would definitely stay here again!

This property is absolutely fantastic. We had a wonderful time relaxing while our son finished training for mountain bike nationals with his friends. The house is very well set up and very comfortable. Close to downtown and close to the paved trail for us non mountain bikers. We will definitely be staying here again on our many visits to Brevard. Our number 1 choice from now on.

Thank you for this incredible review William! You were so awesome to host. Super easy and friendly. We would be thrilled to host you guys again in the future.
This property looks just like the photos. It was so clean and well stocked. Six of us came to Brevard for the weekend to listen to great music. From the home, we walked a few blocks (mostly flat) to great restaurants (Wild Morel was our favorite) and downtown shops. Excellent location and a clean, spacious home with a great backyard view! Owner was very responsive and nice. Would absolutely rent again, and look forward to it!

Valley Bear was wonderful! The property had all the necessities & more & allowed for uninterrupted family time. The property had more than enough space for two families of four.
The kids were occupied by the foosball table & ping pong but also the board games provided.
The location was perfect, simple walk to downtown and short drive to waterfalls & trails.
The entire process from booking to checkout was stress free. I recommend staying here 100%.

Thank you for this amazing review. We would love to host you again. Have a wonderful day!
We’ve never been to Brevard and will most definitely be back again and would love to make it an annual trip. The hosts truly thought of everything, from the foosball table, to the ping pong, hot tub, and so much more. Not only did they think of everything, but everything was very high quality, comfortable, and really a super nice getaway that felt like a home away from home. We especially loved the convenient 5 minute walk downtown for morning coffee or evening cocktails or ice cream. Thanks for a wonderful stay and all the new memories!

A perfect family friendly getaway for all nature lovers
This hidden gem exceeded all our expectations Offering a fully stocked kitchen, hot tub, comfy beds, and a beautiful house to call home for a few days.
We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Our host texted us prior to our arrival to be sure we had all we needed. We were welcomed with a handwritten card and gift from the hosts. They had even turned on the lights which was a great touch since we arrived later in the evening.
The house is perfect for families! The downstairs is its own little oasis with a 2nd kitchen, loads of board games, a foosball table, and ping pong table. Plus, there is a nice backyard for you to get out and enjoy a fun round of cornhole.
The kitchen was fully stocked, clean, an organized, providing everything we needed during our stay.
The hot tub was a great addition, offering a much needed escape after a day of hiking.
The beds were comfy, the linens were high quality, and the bedrooms were perfectly designed and had everything we needed to be comfortable.
The house itself was beautiful! It created a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made us feel at home.
Exploring Brevard was so much fun, full of charm, great restaurants, and unique shops... all within walking distance. There are so many opportunities to hike to beautiful waterfalls & scenic overlooks!
Overall, our stay at Valley Bear was extraordinary. Every detail contributed to an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this hidden gem and can’t wait to come back!
