About this cabin rental
Enjoy fresh mountain air and peaceful atmosphere at Bear Tree Cabin! Cute as a button, it's nestled on the edge of a forest and gets its nickname from an unusual natural formation on a tree in the yard that looks like a bear is hugging it.
Our zip code is Sugar Grove, but the cabin is just 3 miles from the historic Mast General Store in Valle Crucis and is situated in a rural farming neighborhood just off of the Watauga River Road. Fishing, canoeing or swimming in the Watauga River is 2 miles away. Bring your mountain bike and enjoy the gentle grade of the Watauga River Road ... or for a little more adventure, let our resident mountain bike expert recommend a nearby trail that fits your abilities ...
A 4x4 or AWD vehicle is helpful for the short but somewhat steep gravel driveway.
Free-standing air conditioning units are located in the bedrooms for those occasional warm days in July & August. The cabin has ceiling fans in each bedroom and in both living areas. Warm blankets are also there for the cool summer nights!
Private setting, yet a very convenient location to Boone, Banner Elk and most area restaurants & attractions.
Shopping at the historic Mast General Store is only 3 miles away. Restaurants of all types are in Banner Elk, Boone and Blowing Rock.
Zip-lining and snow tubing at Hawksnest is 25 minutes away. An Alpine Coaster ride is located in Banner Elk, across the road from Sugar Mountain Resort.
Pets not allowed.
During the winter months ... Three ski resorts are within a 25 to 40 minute drive. Snow tubing is an option for the non-skier at some resorts nearby. At the end of the day, come 'home' to a relaxing well-maintained hot tub. Four-wheel or All-wheel drive is needed for the gravel driveway if it snows and helpful even without snow.
We also own a Choose & Cut Christmas Tree Farm nearby that is open mid-November through early December. It's called Bear Wallow Choose & Cut Farm.
During most times of the year, we require a 2-night stay but it doesn't hurt to ask about a 1-night stay!
