Luxury Paradise Atop Maggie Valley
Stayed 7 days ending July 2023
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
Our family visited Bare Necessities for the second time to celebrate the 4th of July holiday. This is an exceptionally equipped home. There are so many amenities to the home, you could never leave and have plenty to do. The master has a very comfortable bed, heated toliet, and large master bath on the main level. Our son and wife took the upstairs where there are two bedrooms, one with a king and one with king and large bathroom. My husband appreciated the gourmet kitchen with every possible high-end pot and pan and appliance. For me, the screened in patio with a fire pit and sectional looking out on the trees was my favorite spot to spend hours of my vacation unwinding. We will return to this paradise of peace in the mountains.

My girlfriends and I had a wonderful stay at Bear Necessities cabin. Being from the Virginia Beach area, it was a great respite from the August heat. The cabin provided everything we needed and more. The only hiccup was the ceiling fan in one of the bedrooms upstairs had an issue that kept flipping the breaker. This room also had the wifi router and made it difficult to get in touch with the office but once we were able to let them know the maintenance crew came and fixed the problem enough to get the lights and wifi back on the next morning. The office staff were very nice and check in and check out was easy.

Stayed 7 days ending June 2022
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
Everything went as instructed for check in after hours and package had additional details for our stay. Directions were given to the rental and we only had one wrong turn off, which was the road signage confusion. Once we made it to the cabin, we had no other issues driving up or down. Fair warning going down, you’ll need to down shift your transmission to save your brake wear. It’s a really beautiful view going up and if you’re looking for being on top of a mountain this is the place. We only had one issue and that is the gas grill was empty. Once I made a call down to the office Gloria took care of having it delivered promptly. It’s a very we’ll furnished and beautiful home inside with great decor. It’s ideal for more than one family having privacy on each floor. Highly recommend and we’ll return again. Saw a lot of wildlife going and coming on the mountain. Close to any attractions you may want to visit. We went to Cherokee, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Also Fly Fished the Smokey Mountain National Park Streams. We saw Herds of Elk and one very big Black Bear over 350 pounds. Wonderful trip and very peaceful.

Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
Great, clean cabin high in the mountain tops! There is a LONG hike up the mountain before you get to the property (even though it’s only roughly 2 miles). I recommend the first time going up to be in the daylight because it can be very confusing. Also, type in the address into your gps (we used phones) at the bottom of the mountain because you may lose service halfway up. Thank goodness for WiFi and iMessages, because service was hit or miss. Otherwise the property itself was very accommodating for 10 people (baby included). We would love to go back one day!!!

Our stay at Bear Necessities was fantastic. It had all the modern amenities in a secluded mountain cabin. On a few of the days , the weather was cool and rainy, but the screened porch with a gas fire pit allowed for a great spot to watch the storm over the mountains. The kitchen was modern with great appliances and we enjoyed playing pool and throwing darts. We were a little disappointed that the ping pong table was broken. The cabin is close to both Maggie Valley and Waynesville as well as some great hiking trails. We would absolutely stay here again!!

As we began our ascent, we could already feel this was going to be something special. Along this winding road we decided to roll down the window to get some of the freshest air we have had in a long time. Then we heard the sound of the stream with numerous little waterfalls, lending even more to this already great start. Once we arrived to this awesome house, it was like finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Everything was perfect and my daughter and I made some lifelong memories.

Perfection!
Stayed 3 days ending December 2016
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
We stayed at Bear Necessaties for a family vacation (6 adults and 3 children). The house was absolutely perfect. Plenty of room. High-end appliances, comfortable beds and great showers. The views were gorgeous and we loved the screened in porch and fire pit. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, utensils and anything else you would need. The bottom floor was perfect for the kids--pool table, plenty of room and a bedroom with 2 twin beds. My only complaint is the lack of insulation between the bedrooms upstairs. My parents noted they could hear us above them too. But that was minor compared to all the positives of the cabin.
The cabin is about 10-15 drive up from the rental office and about 10-20 minutes from any type of grocery store. So there is no quick run to the store. There is a park on the premise and my children and niece loved it. Great place for a family vacation. If we head this way again, we'd stay here.

We were in Maggie Valley for a family reunion and we couldn't have found a better house! 4 couples and all loved it! Just beautiful! It was great to be able to sit on the screened in porch and enjoy a fire in July! Quite a treat for people from Texas and Mississippi! Coffee in the morning on the porch with the beautiful view was so nice! The house was clean, furnished beautifully, and had everything we needed and more! The only thing we had an issue with was maneuvering the windy mountain roads to the house after dark. Quite challenging! Thankfully we only had to deal with that 2 of the 5 nights we were there. We highly recommend Bear Necessities!

Just be aware there might not be cell signal. We have AT&T and could only text. But if you have WiFi calling on your phone that worked. There is a house phone too. Overall this house is the best.

This is a well appointed house in a great location to get away. Beautiful view of the mountains from the back porch. Loved listening to the wild turkeys talking to each other and the babbling creek. We really enjoyed the screened-in porch with fire pit. There's plenty of room for a large group and the kitchen has everything you would need and then some.The road to the cabin is well maintained, but steep and curvy in some spots. I wouldn't want to drive it in the winter. It takes about 10 - 15 minutes to get to the cabin from the main road.
