Weekend Get Away

Me and my family spent a long weekend here to get away for a few days. We loved the cabin and enjoyed our stay. The cabin is a little out of the way but the view was stunning and the cabin was cozy and comfortably slept 5 adults. Would love to come back!

Wonderful Stay!

Our family had a great time visiting this cabin. The owners were responsive, the cabin was clean, and the views were amazing. Close to downtown Blue Ridge and the casino in North Carolina, all while being secluded up in the mountains. We will definitely come back!

Cozy Cabin for a Getaway!

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the cabin. John and Caroline left clear instructions for checking in, using amenities, and getting cozy. My six friends and I had enough room to spread out and watch tv, play games, and enjoy the hot tub. I highly recommend this cabin for future group getaways.

Summer Getaway

We had an amazing experience at Black Bears Den! Me, my wife, and our 18 year old son spent the majority of our trip at the cabin. We played pool, Foosball, cards and checkers. Every evening we sat on the top balcony to watch the sunset. We meant to grill while we were there but just ran out of time. The cabin is located about 10-15 minutes from Blue Ridge, white water rafting, horseback riding, and other attractions. The drive is worth every minute! The views and quietness are spectacular! Everything we needed was at the cabin and the owner was readily available for any questions we had. At night, my wife turned on a few lamps throughout the cabin, the ambiance was so cozy. If we could, I'd head back today, but we will definitely want to visit again in the future!!!
