The cabin very cozy, and the owners spent a great deal of time and effort to not only provide all the information we needed about how to operate the various appliances and entertainment, but they also made the cabin comfortable and welcoming. Also, the hot tub was well-maintained and was a very nice addition to our experience. The cabin and the nice walk to the river made our time there very enjoyable.
Excellent, neat, clean, calm, and cozy place! Full of all amenities, just bring your food and drinks, and you’re all set. My whole family had fun (even the pickier members!). We will for sure revisit it someday!
This cabin is absolutely beautiful, cozy, and rustic, but with ALL the modern conveniences and additions you could ever want! It is sparkling clean, beautifully appointed, and has a full kitchen, warm electric fireplace, big jacuzzi tub in the Master, a screen porch AND open deck, a great hot tub, and gorgeous river front property just a lovely 3 minute walk away. We wanted a quiet, pet-friendly escape for our holiday, and this was the perfect place. I highly recommend Bear Timbers and would love to return!
We really enjoyed our stay! The house were amazing. Communicated right up front and stayed in contact. Checking in was simple and uncomplicated, everything we needed was there. Met all of our expectations and then some! Beautiful place and would absolutely stay there again.
This was a great cabin home in a great area of VA. The home was the perfect size for a small family with all of the amenities you would want. The host was very responsive and accommodating during our stay. Luray is a short 15-20 minutes away with lots of great activites and things to see. Couldnt ask for more.
Great location for accessing the Park. Lovely walk down to the river. Cabin is well equipped with kitchen supplies for cooking and eating in. The bed in the primary is comfortable. Didn’t use the hot tub or the jacuzzi bath. Appreciated the bidet attachment in the primary bath.
Great stay, cabin was as advertised, clean, well equipped. Good location for taking advantage of the national park and local attractions such as Luray caverns.
The place is fantastic! It is super clean and everything is nice, new, and works perfectly. The hot tub is very modern and a perfect place to relax after a day of hiking. Be sure to ask the owner for restaurant recommendations. They were all spot on. Hope to come back.
We really enjoyed our stay at Bear Timbers for a long weekend. The cabin was extremely clean, the hot tub was wonderful, and we loved watching TV with the fireplace at night.
The cabin is just perfect! The 4 of us enjoyed our time at Bears Timbers. The kitchen was fully stocked and plenty of towels for the bathrooms. Everything was clean and owners were very nice. We will come back again!
The cabin was very clean, well furnished, and well stocked with supplies. The location is private, and the views from the river are very pretty. The town of Luray is a short drive away, so grabbing a bite to eat or a scoop of ice cream at local restaurants and shops is easy. The cabin also has a nice gas grill that was perfect for our steak night. We enjoyed our stay very much!
All basic amenities were supplied. Wifey surprised me with my 40th Birthday with a nice 3 plus hr motorcycle ride to this wonderful secluded cabin vacation spot. Definitely looking forward to stopping in at this spot again in the future.
House is as described - very clean and has everything you need for a getaway. Owners are super communicative and kind. Love the gas fireplace in the main room, screened in porch, and hot tub. Short, beautiful walk to the river, which is much bigger than I was expecting.
The property was clean and so well stocked - the kitchen has spices and was even stocked with a hand mixer. The owners live nearby and we're available as a resource for ideas. They were also super responsive to any questions we had.It's a must stay!The road in was a little dusty, and the river had quite a bit of gnats. Bring big spray and a good hat!Otherwise, gorgeous property!

Cozy cabin, very clean, plenty to do to keep 3 young kids busy. Clear communication from the owners.
Excellent stay. The river was the highlight. If you can unwind there you never will.
Owners were very helpful and responded quickly to our question.
Will definitely stay again!
