Welcome to Bear Claw Cabin!
Your entire family will love being so close to EVERYTHING when staying at our centrally located, custom log home.

Our spacious yet cozy cabin has 2 rec rooms and a hot tub to help everyone take a break from those fun filled days hiking, biking, skiing, tubing, college football watching, winery touring, and brewery hopping!
A luxurious log home with vaulted ceilings, hardwood flooring and a wood-burning stone fireplace. A full, open kitchen, separate dining area, two living rooms, air hockey and ping pong tables, a hot tub, and plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for large groups!
Master bedroom with king bed and ensuite bath featuring claw foot tub and granite counter top are on the main level. The guest bedroom offers a full bed and a half bath, also located on the main level.

About the host
Hosted by Rachel Pallatto

Hi! We are Rachel and Jim! We have two amazing boys - Jameson and Wesley. We are originally from NY, but have lived in Delray Beach, FL for the past decade, where we thoroughly enjoy the sunny skies and beautiful waters. We have been traveling to the mountains of North Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee with our family for years, and absolutely fell in love with the Banner Elk/Boone/Blowing Rock area. The views are breathtaking and the outdoor adventures are endless!
