We love this place! Never disappoints

We enjoyed the view and privacy this cabin afforded. Our grandson woke up each morning excited to see the mountains shrouded in mist. We loved the proximity to Brevard, Pisgah National Forest, and DuPont Stste Park. The cabin has been updated nicely and is well stocked with many amenities.

Had a wonderful time - well equipped, comfortable home. Great outdoor spaces for relaxing and enjoying the views. Close to Brevard and to lots of activities, but feels like you're a million miles away. Loved being able to bring our pup. Would stay again despite two negatives - ants in the kitchen and a confusing HVAC situation.

Lovely home nestled in the mountains with truly wonderful views. Had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Bear's Rest is lovely and check in was the simplest we have ever experienced. The home is spotless and has everything you need. Brevard is lovely and eclectic. We came here for trout fishing and hiking deep into the mountains. We caught plenty of trout daily which helped make every day perfect to include waking up to stunning sunrises and sipping drinks on the deck to witness breathtaking sunsets. We will be back!

Moons Rest is a beautiful property with amazing views and a clean comfortable and attractive home. Mountain top curvy driveway as should be expected for described location . This is entirely manageable and we found it part of the appeal ( we have a 4 wheel drive diesel truck) . 1st trip up to house ideally done in daylight for best navigation. Ideal location for us ! Unparalleled views !

Good mountaintop location close to Brevard with nice views. We enjoyed our stay. The road up was manageable.

So quiet and peaceful.

We love the property, very clean and organized, the views are amazing, and the cabin is very cozy we spent 3 nights there and we love it. Just not easy to get there, we got in the night time and we almost got lost, you definitely need an SUV.

Really enjoyed the property and the wonderful view from the front porch. The only down side was the driveway with very tight curves which were not great if you are driving a vehicle with a long wheel base, like a pickup even with 4wd.

This was a really great property, and wow the view cannot be beat - simply spectacular! The only thing I would recommend is to make sure you have an SUV, preferably with AWD. The drive to the top isn't for the faint-hearted, but with the right vehicle you'll be fine and it's totally worth the trek!!

Home has wonderful views and is very quiet. It's still close to downtown so venturing out isn't a problem. Wonderful place to stay.

My husband and I spent 4 nights in your lovely house and had a wonderful and very relaxing visit. The house was just what we wanted - quiet and comfortable, on a beautiful property. We were close enough to explore Brevard and also found great hiking nearby. Loved the convenience of the gas fireplace. Our dogs also had a great time.

We liked our stay at the Bears Rest home during our visit to Brevard to attend the Mountain Song Festival. The home is so quiet and the views are excellent. The only concern was that it rained during our stay which made it difficult to drive up the hill with our 2 wheel drive rental car. We ended up switching to a 4 wheel drive which we highly recommend.

I stayed at Bear's Rest for a girls' weekend. The house itself is wonderful; the views are incredible and it was well furnished. We really enjoyed the patio and how the house felt secluded and quiet while still being a quick drive to downtown Brevard. Just be aware that the drive up to the house is steep and a bit nerve-racking if you're not used to winding mountain roads. Unfortunately there were a few drawbacks. When we arrived, which was late at night and very dark outside, the front door to the house was wide open and a light had been left on inside. We were concerned and terrified that someone had broken in, but after searching the property we realized the door had just been left open. We later realized the door lock did not work. Someone came by in a timely manner to check out the issue, but there wasn't anything they could do aside from replacing the door lock, which couldn't happen for a few weeks. Although the house is secluded, the safety issues of not having a lock were concerning. The house was also not very clean when we arrived; there were three active spider webs in the downstairs bathroom, multiple bugs and webs in the window in the downstairs bedroom and several on the ceiling and walls, and bugs were even found under pillows on the bed. I'm guessing some of this was a result of the door being left open for so long. Overall the location is great and the property is nice, but the cleanliness and safety concerns put a damper on our experience. It was frustrating having to pay a cleaning fee for a house that wasn't clean--where we were also expected to do the laundry, do the dishes and take out the trash before 10 a.m. the day we left.

Truly amazing view. We have family close by so it was great to be close. We also worked while there and internet was great. Agree with getting there during the day for first trip up but once you know your way it was easy! Great spot for our girls (2older GSP) owners have upgraded couches which are very comfortable! We brought dog beds - as always - to make sure the pets stayed off of furniture! Highly recommend and would love to go back!

This property is now my favorite place to stay in Brevard. There is a primary bedroom with a king bed on the bottom floor and on the second floor there is a king and a double in one room. Ceiling fans in all rooms. So nice to have the windows open in July! Amazing view and lovely grounds. Yes, the way up is steep, but my non 4 wheel drive suv made it fine in July.

Loved the house and beautiful yard. Nice location, and the seclusion was really nice. Definitely recommend!

This place is wonderful. We enjoyed the secluded location and the feeling of being king of the hill. The road up was not bad as long as you took your time. Well outfitted home. Big yard and big decks with awesome views. If you’re lucky the donkey down the hill will call up to you.

What an amazing view from the covered deck at Bears Rest. The house was very comfortable and our pups enjoyed the backyard. The decor could use an update and the gravel road leading up to the home was hard. Especially at night.

We absolutely LOVED this house, it's location, and the most incredible views!! Amazing long-range views from the huge front porch, beautiful sunset views thru the budding trees from the side porch, and a mossy, soft mountaintop garden area that was so wonderfully serene and peaceful to explore!! We so enjoyed it that we stayed "home" much more than we planned, and just soaked in the serenity of the mountaintop, instead of hiking and hanging out with people in Brevard! This property is most definitely going on our WILL RETURN list!!

Very nice property. Centrally located in the Brevard area. Numerous waterfalls, hiking/biking trails, national forests. Definitely would stay here again in the future.

Great mountaintop home with fantastic views of the western NC mountains. Property was fantastic….would definitely book again !

Breathtaking veiws

We came to the Bear's Rest mountain top property for the weekend to celebrate my wife's birthday and Valentine's Day. We could not have chosen a better place for what we were seeking. The house, property, and views were even more spectacular than the photos on the website. The house was very clean, extremely comfortable, and well furnished. The bed was luxuriously comfortable and the view of sunrise from the bedroom was breathtaking. The kitchen was the best equipped of the many, many rentals we have experienced over the years. Alisha was so very easy and responsive to work with. I can't recommend this property too highly. All the star ratings should be 5+. I will definitely be looking forward to returning through the remaining seasons of the year.

Extremely secluded location with great views. VERY livable house with all the things we needed to be comfortable. Gas log fireplace was nice. Heat worked well. TV did not accept the HDMI feed from our laptop but the DirecTV worked fine. We would definitely stay here again. Great mattress in the master bedroom. The road to the house is VERY steep and with recent snow, we were glad we had all wheel drive. This was a nice place that we both enjoyed. Finally, the property manager was VERY responsive to our e-mails before and during our trip. She was great.
