About this property

Cozy Bear Rock Cottage with hot tub

Please see our house rules regarding smoking.
Escape to the mountains and experience the serenity of rural life at our charming 2-bedroom cottage. Situated along a peaceful country road in a farming and hunting community, this cottage offers a cozy retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Gather with loved ones in the warm and inviting living room, featuring a gas stove that mimics the look of a real wood-burning fireplace (seasonal availability). The fully-stocked kitchen has all the essentials you need to cook full meals, and the spacious dining room features a table that seats 6. Start your day off right with a fresh cup of coffee from the coffee bar.
With 2 large bedrooms (1 on main level and 1 upstairs), this cottage can comfortably accommodate up to 4 adults and 2 children. Spend afternoons lounging on the front porch, or fire up the grill on the back deck, just steps away from a tranquil stream. In the evenings, gather around the fire pit under a large rock for a night of roasting hot dogs and s'mores.
The George Washington and Jefferson National Forest is just a 5-minute drive away, and the Blue Ridge Parkway is just 15 minutes away. Tackle off-road adventure through the unpaved national forest access roads, best accessed with a truck or SUV. Within 25 minutes, you can enjoy fishing at three different lakes or multiple trout streams, or take a 20-minute drive to the James River. There is also an off-road ATV trail 15 minutes away. If you're visiting Lynchburg's universities, you'll be just 35 minutes away.

There is a security camera that monitors the driveway/parking area and front of the house.

Other things to note
We recommend fueling up and stocking up on groceries and other essentials before arriving. Gas stations and a Dollar General are about 15 minutes away and Walmart in Madison Heights is 25 minutes. Another tip is to pre-download the area using G maps offline feature. Cell service is spotty around the house and National Forest areas.
A tv with a Roku stick is available to connect with your streaming accounts.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.

It was a good experience overall. The owners were very receptive to texts and responded quickly. It is a cute cozy house but definitely requires maintenance; squeeky doors and floors, hard to open windows. Backyard and hot tub rated at 4, cleanliness rated at 2.

Nestled in the woods far enough to see decent stars, and relaxing to view them from a hot tub! Our son enjoyed exploring the creek running along the yard.

What a great place! Everything was as it should be and what I expected. We had an awesome time just relaxing with family. This is a cool spot and exactly what I wanted for a quick getaway with no distractions. We had fun seeing the deer, turkeys and the hummingbirds.

Perfect little getaway.

My husband and I wanted a nice quite place to getaway over the Thanksgiving Holiday and this place was perfect. We enjoyed the hottub and the fireplace. We drove through the Shenandoah Valley and went to the Luray Caverns. We definitely want to come back and explore the the area around the house next time. Zeb was great at giving us suggestions.

Great Place!

Had a really enjoyable time staying here. Zeb and Ellen really put in a lot of work into paying attention to detail to make it as nice as possible. Our kids really enjoyed playing with the toys and looking at the creek. I would recommend getting there while it is still light since the roads are really dark and challenging to drive especially when there is fog. Overall, it was a great choice and would recommend it as a nice cozy getaway location.

Lovely Cottage

Cozy cottage and property is very private. House was very clean and the host included so many extras like soap, shampoo, toilet paper and towels. Kitchen was well stocked, a fully equipped coffee bar and they even included a s’mores basket. I especially loved the swings by the stream. The host was quick to response to messages. Hope to stay here again in the fall.

Looking forward to our next stay!

Wonderful home. Plenty of towels, comfortable bedding, functioning kitchen, great space overall. We didn’t need the dinning room or items that would be convenient for a toddler, but they had them! High chair and pack n play! Would be a great place for a family to stay. My husband and I enjoyed our stay, easy check in, and basic needs are provided. I even found a first aid kit when I needed a bandaid. Hot tub is fantastic and relaxing. 10/10 recommend and will hope to stay again!

We were looking for a place that isn't too far from everything and can accommodate my family of 6. This house worked out well for us, I just wish we could have taken advantage of all the amenities. We planned to use the fire pit the last day but a storm rolled in and rained all night. We came as the leaves were changing and it was beautiful. The only point if caution I would say is that the address is in Monroe, va it is actually about 20 from Monroe down winding roads. It wasn't an issue but did take us a little further than we expected.

Friends Birthday Weekend

The house and outside of the property were just perfect! The swings and hot tub were the high light of our stay ( be sure to check the tire swing for any nests, made that mistake and ended up being stung by a wasp….nest fell with me off the swing so we carefully moved it away from the swing) Inside was cozy and comfy. AC unit was a little hard to understand at first but it works like a gem! Will definitely be recommending and would totally stay again

Peaceful and relaxing

We chose this property for a getaway weekend because it was within an hour and had a hot tub and firepit. It exceeded our expectations and we wished could have stayed another night. Everything we needed was there...even condiments in the fridge! The coffee bar was much appreciated as well as towels for the hot tub. Just so many thoughtful details I can't list them all. My boyfriend and I both love old houses so it was fun to walk the property and explore the house while we tried to figure out what the original place may have looked like. All the details, old and new, added to the charm. A home away from home. and so many extras
