We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Whiskey Bear cabin! We were there with family and enjoyed our time. It was a great location to go hiking from and into Boone too. The house is perfect for time together but big enough for separate sleeping space too. Wonderful place!

Wonderful Cabin in the mountains

We loved Whiskey Bear cabin! The cabin is well appointed, the rooms are all a great size and there’s lots to do if you choose to stay in! The location was perfect for a trip to downtown Boone and a trip to downtown West Jefferson. Check in was easy and check out instructions were clear and easy to follow. Look forward to a return trip and will recommend to friends!

Fantastic stay. The owner got back to me right away when I had questions. Perfect for two families with kids. House was beautiful and beds were really comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed. Only 20 minutes from Boone and 30 minutes from Ski Resorts. Definitely would come back.

Boone in June

Yes, it's technically Fleetwood but that doesn't rhyme as well...Loved the cabin...very rustic feel with modern conveniences. Had a total of 6 adults, one teenager and a dog and always had plenty or room with plenty of places to enjoy the quiet. Well stocked...if you aren't a Keurig user the drip maker does leave a little to be desired. Fortunately there is a french press which was well used on the trip. Definitely returning to the area and if available would stay at Whiskey Bear again.

Love this place

Stayed at the Whiskey Bear Lodge for 3 nights. Although the weather didn't cooperate with us the first day, the lodge still made it a memorable and enjoyable experience for all of us. There were 8 of us in total (4 adults, 4 kids) and the layout was perfect. The kids loved hanging out in the basement and the upstairs "kids" room. The lodge has a rustic appearance but with nice modern amenities. The owners were extremely responsive and even helped us to diagnose a problem that we had with the wifi over the phone. The yard has plenty of room to explore as well. We will definitely be back!

Family visit

Overall pretty house and property, well furnished with split wood for use in the burn pit. Largest issue was even though air conditioning was listed on the description, it is just a portable unit in the living room. There is not central air conditioning. While this may not have been an issue in the winter, it was not a very comfortable stay in August.

Hi Sarah, the right vacation home is everything, and we're sorry if the A/C setup wasn't what you expected. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:- The listing does state that there is 1 window A/C unit (main living area), but we are sorry if this caught you off guard. We encourage guests to thoroughly review the listing before booking, to ensure they find the perfect vacation home for their needs- We appreciate your feedback and understand that this might not have been ideal during your summer stayThanks for taking the time to leave your review. We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests!

Mountain Getaway

Great cabin, but in 7 years and 20+ VRBO stays, this is the only negative experience we have had. Evolve real estate would not return calls. Contact service individual did not answer calls(voice mailbox full), texts or email requests. Luckily, we had no major issues but this was the first property that was not responsive. Although a great property, unfortunately we will not return or book any other property managed by this agency. Too many great VRBO options to settle with a management team who is quick to take your rental money, but ignores you once payment is made. I would ask for a refund, but know such an organization would not honor due to their commitment to revenue, and not customer service.

Hi Mark, We were sorry to hear that you had some trouble reaching your local contact during your stay. We did want to clarify that the local contact is not a member of the Evolve team - we are a vacation rental management service, but we do not provide on-the-ground services for the properties in our network. We do require each property to have a local contact that is available 24/7, and even though they are not Evolve employees, we still expect them to meet our high standards for hospitality. The homeowner also has high expectations for their local team, and they are looking for a new contact who will be more reliable when communicating with their guests moving forward. Guests receive the information for their local contact as well as for Evolve when they reserve their stay, and we hope that you won't hesitate to contact us if we can be of any assistance the next time that you book a vacation rental!
