Exult in the spaciousness afforded by the soaring 25-foot vaulted ceilings and the natural light streaming through huge windows.

Handy small appliances – crockpot, waffle-maker and toaster – are also at your fingertips. You’ll find plenty of counterspace – including the kitchen island – and all the cookware, bakeware, dishware, flatware, glassware, serving-ware, storage containers, and utensils you need to prepare and serve your favorite recipes.

Grab your morning hot beverage from the coffee bar, featuring both drip coffeemaker and Keurig combo. The machine also doubles as a hot water kettle, along with provided ground coffee, k-cups, teas, creamer, and sweeteners.

DINING

Dine at the bench-style table for 10-12, supplemented by barstool seating for 4 at the kitchen island (also a sweet spot to sip hot beverages or enjoy breakfast, lunch or a snack).

Or dine al fresco at the table for four as you watch the sun set from the back deck – which you can easily access through sliders from the inside dining area. You’ll find a gas grill on the front porch, along with a table for two, where you can enjoy a nice beverage.

OUTDOORS

While you’re outside, explore two gorgeous acres, check out breathtaking ridge views, discover nearby hiking trails, listen to the water rush down Bear's Creek, and observe wildlife – guests love the deer visitors. Or just relax on Adirondack seating on the covered deck. Best of all, soak your stresses away in the 6-person hot tub off the master bedroom.

In the evening, gather the group as you laugh, tell stories, and make memories and s’mores around the firepit.

MAIN LEVEL

After a full day of exploring on Beech Mountain, you’ll welcome the mudroom’s drip trays for wet boots and plenty of hangers for bulky winter coats, followed by a relaxing warm-up in the hot tub. Whether you’ve been skiing, exploring all the local area has to offer, or just hanging out enjoying the many amenities of Bear's Creek Lodge, head for a restful night’s sleep in your choice of five bedrooms, all with TVs, as well as fresh and extra soft linens.

Our stay at Bear’s Creek Lodge was wonderful. The accommodations were fantastic, from the spacious layout, the games, and great outdoor fire pit. The setting of the house is so peaceful and a great way for us to reconnect during our family reunion.

We spent 3 nights at the Bears Creek Lodge and had a great time. We had plenty of bedrooms and beds for our group of 6 adults and 3 children. The house is close to the Beach Mountain ski resort with amazing views of the woods. The listing description and photos matched the house. Lauren was great and easy to communicate with. Once at the property, everything was in order and worked as expected. We truly appreciated the mudroom with plenty of space for boots and coats, before entering the house. We loved the long dining room table and the ability to eat our meals together. The game room provided endless entertainment for the grandkids, while the well-stocked kitchen was easy to cook in. The outdoor fire pit close to the creek was very enjoyable. The jacuzzi tub was perfect at the end of day. The house had plenty of amenities. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and cared for. They had thoughtfully anticipated every need, ensuring that our stay was nothing short of perfect.

Lauren was very helpful and responsive as we tried to get to the Airbnb during a snow storm. The snow plows are very consistent in that kind of situation. The home was just as it was pictured. All the amenities worked and the rooms were neatly organized. Would highly recommend this place. Definitely would like to visit again!

Lauren was so accommodating and quick to respond before and during our stay! She really is an amazing host and the house was everything we wanted for a snowy mountain getaway. There were lots of fun things in the house for our kids to do which is always so nice after a long day of excursion.

My family spent our first ever thanksgiving in Beech Mountain at Bear Creek Lodge. We had a nice time together. We did encounter couple issues but Lauren was very quick to respond. She was definitely a super host, very informative and responded quickly to our concerns. On the day of our departure we were greeted by a 6 point Buck that came right up to us at the entrance. We hand fed him pieces of apple . What a grand finale!

Overall, we had a good stay. This place accommodated the size of our family. The outdoor space was spacious. Our family enjoyed the hot tub. Lauren was responsive when we had to contact her about an issue. The place could use a deep clean/ overall refresh or a more thorough clean between guest. Kitchen needed to be wiped down, their were shower toiletries left in the bathroom from the previous guest, and some of the bedding and bath towels were stained, rough, and scratchy. Toys were left from the previous guest. The basement couch was worn/uncomfortable, stained, and crumbs between the cushions. The loft pull out couch was broken and wasn’t usable, leaving a member of our party without a bed. Dishwasher isn’t anchored and fell out of place when opened creating a major hazard for our infant and toddlers. These were the bigger issues, but a walk though is needed. There are other minor issues that should be address. We would stay again, after a refresh/update.

We had a absolute brilliant time at Lauren’s beautiful cabin, 100% a five star stay and worth every penny. We enjoyed the games room basement and hot tub for chilling out and listening to the creek. Nice and secluded although you are only a ten min drive to the town if you wanted to go to the shops/restaurants, it was lovely to see deer’s roaming around in the garden. Thanks again for a great stay Lauren we will definitely be back!

We met up with extended family at Bear Creek Lodge and had an amazing time. Pulling up to the house we were greeted by the babbling creek, great way to put you into relaxation mode. The house provided ample sleeping and recreation space for our 2 families. We had a few days with heavy rain and we were thankful for the pool and shuffle board tables. We enjoyed walking down the road and checking out some of the other streets nearby and found we could access some of the trails with a short walk down the main road. This was our first visit to Beech Mountain, be prepared for windy roads and lots of steep inclines when you're hiking. The younger kids in our group (ages 4-12) enjoyed the Falls Trail at Buckeye Recreation Center, Upper Falls trail by the Lake Coffee Recreation Area and fishing at Lake Coffee. Another stop that our teenager enjoyed was Holy Smokes BBQ, great food and a great view. We would reccomend Beer Creek to anyone looking for a family friendly getaway.

We had the pleasure to be able to bring our immediate family - 7 people and one Labrador - to this outstanding cabin on Beech Mountain. With the creek in the back yard and woods all around we felt like we were secluded and yet just a mile or so away you could pick up anything you left behind. Plenty of space within to spread out and relax. Highly recommend 👍🏻

Our family really enjoyed this space. The location is BEAUTIFUL, but I will say it’s very windy and steep driving up there. Also, the creek is SO much fun to play in, but please be careful going down TO the creek. Take it from the person who stupidly broke their ankle trying to walk down to the creek. Very clean, and LOTS of things to do in the home. I think shuffleboard may have been our favorite. 😂 About 5 minutes from the top of the mountain where there is a lot of activities as well if you want to get out and about, or plenty of things to do if you want to just relax.

We had a lovely time at this cabin for a long weekend. Plenty of parking, clean inside and out. The sound of the creek in the backyard was so lovely.

It won’t let me post the review yet since we’re technically not supposed to check out until tomorrow but I will share on Airbnb tomorrow: We loved our summer stay at Bears Creek Lodge! This is our second time staying at the Layne’s beautiful mountain home. The creek out back was a big hit for our Nature loving kids (ages 8, 5 & 1). We spent a lot of time hanging by the fire in the back yard while the kids and dog played outside. It was just the getaway our family needed 💚 Lauren is super attentive and adds great personal touches throughout the house. You can’t beat the location! We loved going to the Famous Brick Oven place in Beech and Sorrento’s in Banner Elk. We also loved hiking the trails and playing at the playground at Buckeye Recreation Center. Looking forward to staying again and exploring more hikes the next time we stay! Thank you Layne Family for sharing your mountain home with our Family 💚🌿🥾🐛

We loved our stay at the cabin! Lauren was super flexible, responsive and accommodating. The cabin was beautiful and I feel like it felt bigger than what is seen in the pictures. My family and I enjoyed the cabin, hot tub, games and nearby river- so peaceful, private and secluded. Thank you so much!! Would definitely return and recommend!

Our cabin stay here was fabulous! We had a group of 10 adults, and we had enough space to hang out together in the common areas while having the privacy of comfy bedrooms. The view was picturesque and the furniture and the decorations went so well together. Lauren was super responsive during my booking process, provided clear check-in instructions and house rules ahead of our visit. And whenever I reached out with even the smallest questions during our stay, I really appreciated Lauren's quick responses. Thank you Lauren for making this mountain trip so great!

Our cabin stay was amazing! Lauren was very responsive the entire time. We had one issue and it got fixed right away! The cabin is great for families and kids. We truly had everything we needed. Its such a beautiful location for a peaceful getaway! We will definitely be coming back.

April 2023
We have stayed in many mountain cabins and this one was absolutely beautiful! The cathedral ceilings, open views, large windows and beautiful furnishings were perfect. So much space for guests with comfy beds and roomy bathrooms. We absolutely loved the hot tub with gorgeous views and all the labels in the kitchen cabinets. The host was very responsive and kind when we left something behind and we accidentally made our checkout process a bit more tricky. She was very helpful! Would absolutely return.

Hurdles are bound to happen in any situation, but how you handle these hurdles makes all the difference. Upon check-in, there were 1-2 things that required fixing but Lauren went above and beyond to make sure it was fixed in a timely manner and that we were taken care of. Her communication and attentiveness to her guests were among the best I have ever had at an AirBnB. The Cabin was clean, spacious, and perfectly served my family for our Ski-Trip to Beech Mountian. I would highly recommend booking this private getaway for your next escape! Thank you Lauren for the incredible stay.
