Lovely Log Cabin

This home was beautiful and equipped with everything we could need. The setting in the woods was private and relaxing. The location is convenient to both New Market and Woodstock. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.

Perfect Getaway Cabin

The cabin was beautiful and has absolutely everything you might need. We had a small accident the first night and the host made sure to check on us and offer recommendations, she was very sweet and you can tell that she truly cares about your experience. The location is amazing, a lot to do around. I will be recommending this place to everyone. Thank you!

An Amazing Place

This was the perfect place to stay for our small family. We loved the quiet mornings and evening. We didn't spend our afternoons there because we were hiking and going on adventures. This place has everything you will need for a short or long trip. Thank you, Mary, for all of your communication and we look forward to staying here again!

Best stay ever

There was just so much to do both inside and outside this cabin. My husband and I took a much needed trip just for the heck of it and were able to reconnect with ZERO electronics and just us with our dog. We spent a day on the deck just hanging out, we spent a day wandering the property just soaking in the sun and walked the trails. And I even had a nice time in the jacuzzi with my wine! Loved every second of our time here!

Clean and Comfortable Stay

While the property clearly has the earmarks of being a rental property (versus a starched and stale hotel-esqe stay), we honestly couldn't have asked for a better trip. Never lacked for anything. The wifi worked (we could stream march madness!) and the kitchen and living room were comfortable. The south facing windows did create a bit of heat towards the end of a sunny day, but we were there in early spring, so we didn't bother turning the AC on, and just opened some windows. 10/10 would stay there again.

Hot Labor Day Wknd

Went to the Shenandoah valley for some hiking but with the 95+ degree temps that just wasn’t going to happen. The cabin was such a nice cool spot though and the AC worked perfectly :) Lovely, clean space just as advertised. A bit a ways from a lot of action but you do get the ultimate small-town vibes. Private with a nice lot to spend some quality time with games and paths through the wooded area!

Home away from home

Our stay at "Bear Necessities" was wonderful. The rustic feel of the cabin made for a true mountain stay with amenities worthy of a city rental. Fully functional kitchen with everything you need prepare meals, table to accommodate our large crew. Huge covered porch with lots of rocking chairs made for relaxing afternoons with the family. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms made sleeping trouble-free. They even provided a spare air mattress and sleeping bags for the surprise guest. A loft with TV and video games allowed kids time away from parents on the ground floor. A grill made cookouts easy, and a nice fire pit made for a nice way to end the evenings. Lots of deer and fox sightings. Easy to get to local activities like the Luray Caverns, community pool, and local shops, restaurants, and historical locals. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a mountain escape with great accommodations. Hosts were fantastic.

Amazing Cabin

First off... the pictures do not do this cabin justice. Very quiet neighborhood. It was fun when walking dogs in morning watching 4 deer frolic in the neighbors yard (this was every day!). We loved the ability to disconnect from our lives and just enjoy this area. When outside at night. it is pitch black so flashlight is needed. (some lights come on with motion detection in back of house). Communication with owner was fantastic. We had no issues because of this. Location was close to many tourist areas. Luray Caverns, Dukes of Hazard's' Museum, Shenandoah National Forest, New Market Battle Field Museum was very interesting, Various other Battle Field Museums, a number of breweries/wineries... so much more. House was beyond beautiful. Kitchen has all amenities needed. Grocery stores are not far away. Would love to stay here again!
