Welcome to Bear Necessities! Nestled amidst the breathtaking beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom cabin offers a cozy retreat where tranquility meets adventure in the heart of Todd, NC.

Bear Necessities is more than just a place to stay—it's a haven where unforgettable memories are made. The cabin features comfortable amenities that will make you feel right at home.

As the name suggests, the cabin pays homage to the majestic bears that roam these mountains. Experience the charm of rustic decor inspired by nature's noble creatures. Let the bear-themed artwork and furnishings immerse you in the cozy ambiance of your surroundings.

As you step inside, you'll find an inviting sitting and dining area complete with a sectional sofa, electric fireplace, and Smart flat-screen TV. There is also a dining table for six. A few steps up, the kitchenette is equipped with an extra refrigerator, microwave, and Keurig coffeemaker.

Upstairs, you'll find a luxurious king bedroom complete with an ensuite bath featuring a spacious shower. You are sure to enjoy relaxing in bed while watching your favorite movie.

Outside, you'll find a large covered front porch where you can sit back and enjoy views of the New River or even enjoy a meal that you’ve prepared on the gas grill. For those cool evenings, curl up by the fire pit and roast s’mores as you watch the fireflies.

Just a stone's throw from Bear Necessities lies the magnificent New River, offering an array of exciting outdoor activities. Grab a kayak or tube and embark on a relaxing water adventure, navigating the gentle rapids and soaking up the stunning river views.

And if you're up for some cycling, nearby outfitters provide bike rentals, allowing you to pedal along scenic Railroad Grade Road. RiverGirl Outfitters is just a short drive away, and Todd Island Park is the perfect place for river access.

Beyond the cabin, the charming town of Todd beckons with its rich history and vibrant community. Explore local outfitters, savor local cuisine, or immerse yourself in the arts and crafts scene.

Great property!

Bear Neccessities was amazing and perfect for our needs. Property was easily accessible, despite rainy (followed by snowy) conditions. The kids loved being able to hang out in the great room with the fireplace going, and my wife and I enjoyed the quiet. We had an interesting run-in with a couple of Carolina Wrens upon check-in, but that was more amusing than anything. Would highly recommend this property to friends or family.main room and occasionally play nintendo by the fireplace, and my wife and I appreciated being able to

Relaxing Getaway

We had an excellent stay at Bear Necessities in Todd. The house was exactly as described and the location was so peaceful. We enjoyed relaxing mornings on the porch, went tubing on the New River, and squeezed in a campfire and smores. We would love to return in the fall sometime to enjoy a bike ride along the Railroad Grade Road.

Great getaway!

We enjoyed the cabin. The house was a bit quirky with the rooms but we made it work. The porch was our favorite place to hang out. We loved taking the dogs to the river so close to the house. The cabin is well- equipped and clean!!! Thanks for the memories!

My boys and I really enjoyed the relaxing home and river views from Bear Necessities deck, and the river access just down the drive. We had everything we needed right there for our long weekend, with Todd Island Park so closeby plus places to rent equipment to get out on the river.
