About this property

RUSTLING WATERS await at Bear Creek Cabin off Parkway or I-77 near Fancy Gap

Come experience serenity --> Owner welcomes you to Bear Creek Cabin and invites you to relax and connect with nature! "The Bear" is nestled on a wooded hillside in the Blue Ridge Mountains region overlooking the beautiful rushing waters of Little Reed Island Creek, near Fancy Gap, VA. Quaint and cozy, this 1 bedroom / 1 bath full log cabin is perfect for that romantic weekend getaway, or a week of fun-filled outdoor activities. The "Bear" accommodates up to 4 guests and features a bedroom w/ queen size log bed, and a sleeper sofa in the vaulted main room. The 2 person indoor Jacuzzi spa/tub with gas fireplace view is perfect for that intimate, relaxing bath experience - a 'Beary' nice way for a 'couple a cubs' to spend the evening, or for a lady to decompress. The separate bath boasts a full oversized shower with seat. A fully appointed kitchen and breakfast nook serves all your meal preparation and dining needs.
Outside, the full length covered porch seating area provides amazing views of the creek, complimented by the soothing sounds of nature and rapids below. There's a bistro table set for enjoying that perfect cup of morning Joe or romantic dinner. Or enjoy your private wooded lower deck perched nearer the creek's edge.
The lower level private game room is furnished with a pool/ping pong table, darts, card table, board games, and additional sofa bed seating for loads of fun. A full washer and dryer also complete the space. A charcoal style BBQ grill enhances the outdoor fun on the upper level (located in front of the cabin - charcoal by Renter).
The shared outdoor fire ring is the ideal spot for enjoying those evenings filled with toasting S'mores or glasses of wine together. Our creek side gazebo with swing, and private wooden deck sitting area, afford peaceful rest or reading pleasure while fully immersed in natural woods.
There is plenty to see, do and explore in the region. Hiking in nearby Devils Den, Pilot Mountain or any of a number of state parks close by. Fishing on the New River. Visit the real "Mayberry", Mount Airy, NC for shopping, restaurants and antiques. Or take in the music at nearby Floyd, VA or Galax, VA's (Old Fiddler's convention). Many festivals year round in the area, as well as the Hillsville Annual Flea Market!
The fun starts in the woods, where technology and stress end - take refuge and soak in serenity for your mind, soul and body rejuvenation.
We hope to see you soon!

Nice but…..
Nice cabin. Very clean. Gravel road is treacherous especially when wet. Sharp incline. Steps leading to the creek are uneven and a tripping hazard.

Little piece of heaven
Honestly never been a place I stayed to where it was this accommodating and clean. Soon as I walked in a nice fragrance caught my senses and I began to smile. Even though it was dead of winter made me feel like it was spring. Furniture very up to date. 2 robes hanging by the hot tub. Didn't even bother us there wasn't any wi-fi. We enjoyed the DVD's that were there. Other times sitting out on the large porch taking in the fresh air. Several different games to enjoy downstairs. Loved the inner kid coming out of us all.. A nice still down to the swing listening to the waterfalls and the mini river. I could go on and on but don't want to take all of the fun out of it for you all. I can't wait until my next adventure there. You should definitely give it a try and be sure to tell Rick (Tiffany) sent you :).

Mostly Good
It was very cozy and relaxing getaway. Only few complaints, the game room games are all old and pretty worn down. The pool table is bowed and legs aren’t very sturdy so table wobbled, ping pong is just in pieces you set on top of the pool table, those boards are bowed as well; and almost all the darts are broken for the dart board. After letting the jets run on the tub there was debris and a weird film in the tub from them, so we didn’t get to enjoy that part of the stay. But overall it is a very nice cabin in a very relaxing area and my boyfriend and I still enjoyed it. Thank you.

Exactly what we needed! A spire of the moment trip that will now become a tradition! The cabin was super clean and had everything we needed. If I had to choose something to improve on it would be to have more bath towels.

Great Getaway Cabin
The Bear Cabin was everything we expected and more. Access to the cabin could not have been easier and once inside, it was spotless and very well equipped for our visit. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the porch, listening to the creek below and along with sounds of birds during the day and crickets at night. I highly recommend this cabin to anyone who wants to get away unplug and unwind.

Enjoyed Our Stay
We were very pleasantly surprised when we arrived at our cabin. We loved the setting, the rushing creek down below, the whole “back to nature” feeling. The cabin was very quaint and creatively decorated to complete the theme. We had all the necessary items for a comfortable stay. We loved the downstairs game room! It was a plus since it rained most the the time we were there (2 days)..thanks for a great experience!! OKI Dave

Perfect
This was such a beautiful place. It was perfect for our disconnecting from the world weekend. It did rain quite a bit but that made it even more relaxing. We sat on the front porch and read books listening to the rain and rushing creek. We loved sitting on the swing above the creek too. The place was cozy and comfortable. Perfect for a couple. There were also guest in the other cabin. But we didn't even hear them drive up. So it was totally like we were the only ones there. We will be back.

Great Weekend Get-away!
Very quaint cabin in secluded location. Has one twin cabin located next door which would be great to two couples. Beautiful natural setting with the sound of rushing water in the creek below. Minor things could stand a little tlc...(ex. shower knob not attached, games in game room downstairs need some tweaking to stabilize them, batteries for the dart board, kitchen chair leg had one bolt holding it on finger tight.) Overall, it really is a wonderful cabin at a reasonable rate. Definitely recommend.

Perfect Getaway
The Cabin was clearly well loved and well maintained. The stream running by the cabin produces a relaxing and calm atmosphere and everything about the property was as advertised. In fact, the pictures and writing don't do it justice. You have to see it to understand how lovely it was There was easy and good communication with the host on some minor issues due to VRBO messaging being down during the day I needed to confirm. The host went above and beyond to help get something that wasn't their fault sorted. I was very pleased with just how easy everything was . I would highly recommend this property if you and your spouse/partner are looking for romantic getaway. One small caviat. I would recommend using either an SUV/4WD/AWD vehicle if you take a trip to this property. The location is off of state maintained roads and getting there in my sedan was a small adventure of its own. Otherwise, this was the perfect location and I would, likely will, rent it again.
