Charming Cabin in Spectacular Mountain Location

I just completed a four night stay with a friend at "Little Bear" and loved every minute of it! The cabin is in a secluded and absolutely beautiful mountain location. The cabin is immaculately clean, very comfortable and cozy. it was fully stocked with everything I needed for my stay. Will definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.

Clean and private getaway for family

We had a wonderful stay at Little Bear with our children. It is ideally located to enjoy several different activities throughout your stay. The cabin is an easy hour drive to Damascus, VA to ride the Creeper Trail. We also took out two polaris on Doe Mountain, the highlight of our kids' trip! Also nearby is the Watuga Lake Winery with beautiful views and live music overlooking the mountain sunset. After every day, we really enjoyed sitting around the firepit and cooking smores. Overall, the cabin was well stocked and very clean. We would recommend this for a couple or small family!
