We had an excellent time Bear Cub as a family of 4\. I was so impressed with how CLEAN it was and I am so picky about that. It smelled truly clean and not a speck of dirt or dust. The grounds are maintained so it was easy to access and walk the dog. We had a blast on the lake and love the area. It is very rural so be prepared! The kids loved playing in the loft but did end up sleeping in the primary (room with a door that shut) and mom and dad got relegated to the smaller bed but still everyone slept well! We appreciated the s’mores kit there too because we assumed it would be too hot for a fire… it was just right for a quick smore party! Charity was great and easy to work with! ##### Kelli H.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Misty 18 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We absolutely loved our stay at Bear Cub Cabin! We were in town to go to the Bristol race but after getting to this beautiful cozy cabin, we ditched the Friday night race. Everything was so nice and clean and there were lots of little touches to make our stay extra comfy and relaxed. We went fishing out of Fish Springs Marina, which was great. We loved the surrounding area (towns of Butler and Elizabethton), the people were super friendly. We enjoyed the slower pace an even the lack of cell service was nice at times. I highly recommend this cabin and the hosts! ##### Misty Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy W. 30 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just beautiful The view is amazing. The dock has wonderful chairs to sit on and is easy to use whether it’s bringing your own boat and docking or using the provided kayaks. Beds were comfortable and air-conditioning worked fantastic! We used the grill probably twice a day which was a great benefit. It was the perfect size for our family of three and Charity is very responsive and easy to work with. Looking forward to coming back ##### Amy W.

We love to visit watauga lake and find that we always have to book a house that is way too big for us to get the amenities we want. 1000% book this place if you’re looking for a perfect property to swim in the lake, float, paddle board, and then grill out and have a fire. Also the bed was probably the most comfortable bed we’ve ever slept on. ##### Amber R.

Located in a quiet section of the lake, the cabin is tastefully furnished, very clean, and plenty of room. The host is very responsive, provided everything you need and even included all the fixings for S'mores at the fire pit. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again. ##### Brian J.

Love the dock and enjoyed laying out in the lounge chairs and having the kayak and paddle board to use. The cabin is small but spent our time outside. Cabin very clean and welcoming! Host was amazing at communicating. ![Beautiful sunset from the dock. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/676eab76-59ff-4d73-bd30-388eb1a93705-1751645833461.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Michelle P.
