Everything was great and close to everything!

The best part about the house is the view off the back deck. It was stunning and the sun never really hit the porch so we were always in the shade. We spent hours outside. I did think the kitchen needed better lighting. It was pretty dark in there.

Our family of four stayed here for a weekend trip to Grandfather Mountain. The property was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the view, the fire pit, and the hot tub. A nice location for a relaxing weekend stay.

Cozy, rustic, mountain cabin getaway with splendid views of the mountain range. Literally down the road from the App Mtn Ski resort. Appealed to the entire family with nearby towns of Boone and Blowing Rock. Had a great spring excursion and Dayna, our host, was very accomodating in arranging the schedule to fit. Thank you for a lifetime of memories!

Amazing location, close to town and ski runs. Beautiful view from the deck. We enjoyed the fire pit and the hot tub nearly every evening. Super quiet and peaceful, we felt like we were the only ones enjoying this area of the mountain. Kitchen is well stocked, beds super comfy and the TV was easy to operate. We appreciated the holiday decorations and the complimentary firewood. We will be back again for sure!

Very nice clean cabin with all amenities provided. Communication with owner was excellent and very quick responses. The only negative is limited parking on side of main road and only being able to leave one bag of trash. This makes it difficult if cooking meals in cabin. And of the course the stairs getting down to cabin which we were aware of before booking.

Our booking crossed two owners as the property changed hands during our reservation and both owners, previous and new, couldn't of been nicer to work with. The cabin is in a perfect location if you are skiing App Mtn - walking distance to the entrance which allowed us to do lunch and dinner at the cabin between ski runs - and close to other town attractions including Blowing Rock, Sugar/Beech Mtn, and shopping. The cabin is nicely equipped and decorated (extra special touches for Christmas) and had everything we needed for a family ski trip getaway. Communication with the owner was easy, pleasant, and quick and we will definitely be back for our next trip to Blowing Rock! Thank you for sharing your home with us - we had a lovely stay!

Our family had a fabulous Christmas staying at Bear Pause. The cabin was clean, and cozy. Everything we needed was there for a weekend . The master bedroom was amazing. Hot tub perfect! Will definitely stay again!

We had an awesome vacation this past Thanksgiving, The cabin was a ton of fun. It was super clean and cozy, and a great layout for a family. The cabin was well stocked, and while the kitchen is small, we were able to cook our entire traditional Thanksgiving feast. And lastly, the views are amazing!

Beautiful cabin with amazing views! Had a great time in Blowing Rock in this cabin. Everything was very clean and had plenty of cookware and supplies. The view from the back deck is awesome. My favorite part was sitting out in the deck in the rockers drinking coffee looking at the beautiful views!

This property is in a great location and has really beautiful views off the back deck. Very comfortable cabin and cute decor! We enjoyed our stay very much!

Wow, what a cabin. It was very clean and organized. There was obviously attention to detail as well in terms of decorating. What a wonderful host too! She was super helpful and friendly ever encounter I had. I would 10/10 recommend this place. The hot tub and fire place just are icing on the cake as well.

The property owner Dayna was truly a wonderful host. She made it very easy to check in and kept all lines of communication open. This was a special trip because I asked my partner of 5 and a half years to marry me and we were accommodated perfectly! I recommend this property to anyone who needs a nice little get away with a great view a wonderful property owner. THANKS AGAIN DAYNA!!!!

Went with a group of friends for the weekend. This cabin had everything we wanted! Very clean and spacious. Absolutely loved the hot tub with a fantastic view of the mountains!!! Highly recommend!

Great cabin in great location, comfortable. Loved the hot tub. Host responded immediately when needed.

This house had everything we needed for a quiet retreat with one other couple and our 3 "tween" sons. With COVID, we cooked all our meals here and spent a lot of time on the back porch or in the hot tub, and the boys played ball and air hockey in the basement and watched movies. We went for some hikes but largely just enjoyed the mini-retreat.

It was a beautiful place to stay with a great view of the mountains. We loved the cabin feel and look. Loved the lighting in all the rooms. Could use some lighting under cabinets in the kitchen. It was close to everything. Only downfall was the stairs.. Lots of stairs getting down to the cabin. Overall great place to come with family and friends. Plenty of room.

Overall, we found the place to be cozy, location was excellent and the master bedroom was comfortable along with the master bath. The place needs maintenance for sure and the upstairs tv didn't work. There were "things" left by prior renters, i.e., a knife, and other odd items, that would be a hazard to children. The grass should have been cut and the kitchen was not fully equipped, i.e., no sponge, knives were very dull. One of the shades was broken ( master bath ) so we couldn't raise/lower it. If you don't mind that the place needs updating and maintenance, it serves well for space and location. The stairs going to/from parking area was not a problem heading in/out, but dragging suitcases etc would be a challenge for those who are not fit, or for someone elderly.

The host was kind and friendly, the house warm and welcoming. I couldn’t ask for a better place to stay. We’d love to come back!

Wonderful weekend

Cute property for our family and friends weekend getaway. Great communication with owners and to Boone and Blowing Rock.

It was an awesome cabin! It was perfect for the getaway we were looking for. Highly recommend!

We loved this cabin! It’s in a great location, well-appointed, and very nicely decorated. The views from the deck and hot tub are amazing!

We had 4 adults and 4 children staying in this cabin. The bunk beds were perfect for the kids. The cabin has about 30 stairs that lead down to the front door but that was only an issue for loading/unloading luggage. The cabin itself is very clean and comfortable. I enjoyed using the app for locking and unlocking the door. We had one minor issue with a clogged drain but the owner came right out to fix it so we really appreciated how fast they responded. There is enough seating for everyone but if we were all adults it could’ve been more challenging l. We really enjoyed how close we were to Blowing Rock and how secluded the cabin felt.

Arrived at this cabin to find the 41 steps down to the cabin covered with ice and snow from the blowing snow making machine at the ski slopes down the street. Trying to navigate the slippery steps down with luggage and weekend supplies was treacherous. Once inside the cabin we discovered there was no wood for the wood-burning fireplace, which was the whole reason we chose the cabin. Off to the store we went for wood and ice melt. We worked on clearing the steps and of course lugging the wood down was quite the experience. Also, the solar lights at night do not work so when returning from dinner the steps can be difficult. I attempted to text and call the owner and reached them on the third try. There were no directions on the TV provider to operate the TV in the cabin instruction book, it should be updated. I think this cabin could be a 4 star if the owners made a few tweaks. Master bedroom bedspread was soiled and the pillow slips only covered half the pillows, needs updating and more than two ice trays. Cutely decorated and perfect for 4 adults. We loved the fireplace and left wood for the next renters. After these initial problems we love the Blowing Rock area and the cabin was close to everything. Hiking is amazing. We love the Gamekeeper Restaurant, Vidalia, and Bistro Roca.
