Very nice (new like) property. The house was very clean and Ryan was very helpful! Thank you! Larry

My husband and I had such a nice time during our long weekend at this cute little bear cottage! The host was spectacular and very communicative and the house is adorable!

If you're considering this place, just book it, don't hesitate. Our family had such a great time exploring Black Mountain and the surrounding area. Bear Cottage was the perfect base to see and do everything we wanted: Hendersonville & Pinball Museum, the town of Brevard and waterfalls, Chimney Rock, Cherokee, The Smoky Mountains and the Cataloochee Valley, we even made it to Dollywood & Buccee's!! The rental was very comfortable and had absolutely everything we needed. This was our first time to this part of the country so we had a lot of questions. Ryan was incredibly responsive and provided a wealth of information. When, not if, we come back this is the only place we'll stay. - Thank you for helping our family create beautiful memories!

We had a wonderful stay!! The house is great - clean, everything you need is at the house, great location you’re close (5-10 minutes) to everything in Blsck Mountain, very responsive owner. An excellent place to stay!!!

Beautiful home, very clean, very responsive property owner. Great location! Can't wait to go back!!

My family and I, four adults, stayed at Ryan’s place for the week of Christmas. It worked out perfectly for us. The house was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. The guests bedrooms and master bedroom we’re on opposite ends of the house, which provided some privacy. We had Christmas dinner at the house and played games from the assortment provided. There was an Alexia and she was more than happy to play any music we asked for. Other than Christmas, we were out every afternoon and evening. The house is very close to downtown Black Mountain and you could even walk there on a nice day. Black Mountain has several good restaurants, breweries and shops. There’s even an awesome hiking trail called Lookout. The house is also within a quick drive to Asheville and Chimney Rock. Ryan was an awesome host and very responsive! We had no problems with the house, except for when we tried to get in the first time, which was user error. But Ryan was able to get us in without a problem. We would definitely use this house again and will recommend to friends.
