The cabin views were beautiful. There was lots of space and the cabin itself was wonderful. Probably the best equipped kitchen in any cabin rental we've ever stayed in - made cooking in the cabin enjoyable!

Loved our stay. The pictures did not do the view or cabin justice. Excellent location, felt secluded but easy to reach hiking and dining. Would love to return soon.

Mountain weekend

We so enjoyed our weekend at Bear Paws! Perfect weather. The property had everything we needed. It is quite tricky getting to the top of the mountain, but we safely navigated it each time. We would definitely stay there again!

Perfect getaway

It was an absolutely amazing property with equally amazing views. Everything from checking into directions and communication was all great. The owner responded dating questions we had almost immediately. The perfect place if you just want to stay in the mountains for a few days.

Stunning Views

If you are looking for stunning views of the Smoky Mountains then look no further than this cabin! The cabin is well appointed, and the recent renovations make the cabin like new build. The hot tub is an added bonus, and the perfect ending to a full day of activities.

Bear Pawz is even better in person!

In all the years of renting homes for family vacations, we have never stayed at a place that was even better than the photos. Super clean, well-equipped with EVERYTHING you could possibly need and the views are STUNNING! We highly recommend staying at Bear Pawz and promise you will not be disappointed.

Amazing Views

This is our second time staying at this property. The house is clean and beautiful with board games, puzzles, and TVs which were great for when our young kids were bored. The expansive views from the back of the house are amazing! The communication with the property manager was fantastic! It is also located about 20 minutes from downtown Bryson City. We will definitely be back!

Amazing getaway

We absolutely loved staying at this cabin. We WILL stay here again. The private gated Glory Mountain is secluded and beautiful. The cabin has great parking, as we brought a small single motorcycle trailer. As soon as you walk into that house you can see the priceless views of the Smokey's. We spent most of our time sitting on the deck just soaking up the mountains. House is well maintained and was just as the listing showed. Thank you for having us!

Peaceful - Great View

What a great stay. Great views, quiet and very peaceful. Cabin super clean with plenty of space and easy parking. The drive up was not bad. I would recommend AWD or 4WD but worth the drive. Loved every minute on site. Will certainly revisit this one again. This is a place you hate that your stay is up. This one gets a High-Five!

Family vacation

The cabin was exactly as described in the listing! Overall cleanliness is top on our priority list and this cabin far exceeded our expectations. It is equipped with everything you’ll need for a wonderful mountain vacation! The drive up is quite an adventure but one we loved every time we came back. The wifi didn’t work for us but the property manager was very good about communicating and getting it fixed. Don’t wait any longer, book this cabin today!

Breathtaking Views, Secluded, Quiet

There should be a camera to capture the look on people’s faces when they walk thru that front door and immediately see the views. It’s absolutely breathtaking. And the sounds of silence are perfect. The cabin was very spacious and comfortable. We spent a lot of time rocking in the rocking chairs on that back deck overlooking the mountains. We even got to see a rainbow. We would love to return in the fall to see the changing of the trees.

Perfect get away in the woods!

Bear Pawz cabin is the perfect mountain get away! The view from the deck is priceless! The deck is enclosed so great for pets and kids. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you need. The lounge/game room is the perfect cozy spot to curl up and read and still have the mountain view. The drive up the mountain is a bit hairy at times, especially after it rains and we were very glad we have a 4 wheel drive truck! We will definitely be back to Bear Pawz. The only thing I wish it had is a fenced yard for our dogs.

Wonderful Views

The property was exactly as described, and the view was even better in person. The house was very clean with lots of nice little touches & conveniences. Area was very quiet. About 15 minutes to downtown Bryson City and 35 to Cherokee. For those wondering about the roads I found them to be fairly typical of this type of property. Winding 1 lane gravel all the way up once you get into the neighborhood. Just take it slow and you'll be fine. I think you'd definitely need 4-wheel drive in snow or inclement weather. We had moderate overnight rain a few nights during our stay but didn't have any trouble getting in and out. The view was absolutely worth it!

Pretty Mountain Get-Away

The home is as listed, we had no complaints. While we enjoyed getting away for a weekend we just didn't love the house or the location. FYI if it's cloudy and raining the internet is very spotty and slow as we believe it's provided via Direct TV. The house is clean but lacking in charm, it feels like a rental. Not that this is a bad thing just not what we were hoping for. But still a 5 star get-away based upon the house accommodations. BTW the house manager delivered salt to our front door when I mentioned there was none to be found in the house and I never think to bring salt! This was very kind of him.

Hello Liz and Thank You for taking the time to provide your honest opinion of Bear Pawz Cabin. While we understand that not every cabin is the best fit for every Guest, we were all surprised when you said Bear Pawz "lacked charm". So many people rave about how Charming the Cabin is, that it feels warm and cozy, the Spectacular Views (and even the internet). Since Internet is so important to so many people, let me clarify that: There are 2 internet providers. In the Welcome Book, you will find login details for "Frontier" (which is DSL/not via a satellite). Frontier is free and offers unlimited use. Additionally, there is "HughesNet" Satellite internet, which is also free, but use is not unlimited. Steve was happy to bring you the salt. After all, we do promise a basic selection of spices, which includes salt and pepper. Our apologies for the oversight. Sincerely, Kathleen and the NCMR Family

Gorgeous views!

Absolutely beautiful property. That back deck alone, was worth the price of admission. We spent most of our time out there, including the hot tub. If there are any cons, they would be the internet and the drive up to the cabin. We had a 4 wheel drive, so no issues, but for those who don't, could make for an interesting trek. The Frontier internet was lacking, to say the least. The other, Hughes, we were worried we would go over the allotted gigs. That is, if it worked at all due to the weather. We completely understand these are probably the owners only options for where they are. Just giving a heads up. We brought plenty of extra products (toilet paper, paper towels, garbage bags, laundry and dw detergents, etc.). Hardly had to use any of them. Very well stocked cabin, including oils and spices for cooking. Much appreciated. Comfortable furniture, including the bed. We very much enjoyed our time there and would recommend to anyone.

This property was stunning. When we arrived the views were even better in person. We did come a week with a lot of storms and that was actually even beautiful to see the lightning in the mountains.
