Clean and fairly well stocked. The cookware was only fair. Approach road is difficult to navigate in pea soup fog (which is what we had for the first two nights). House was very spacious and was furnished nicely. It would have been better if the steps into the house had been blown off. They were completely covered in leaves, which were wet and slippery. Overall, we had a wonderful and very restful stay and we loved the gas logs. View is execellent, once the clouds lifted on Wednesday afternoon. We will definitely come back. Hopefully the coffemaker will be replaced by then. It was pretty grody looking.
Wonderful sunrise views from this mountaintop setting. Very quiet and peaceful; just far enough from town to feel like you're in the country, but close enough to run in town for a meal. Comfortable bedding with memory foam matresses. Great stay!
My wife and I took our 3 month old on a short weekend getaway and we enjoyed this home very much! Ver cozy and clean and the view is perfect. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay here again on our next trip.
We loved this cabin in the woods! Yes, steep drive but totally doable! And it’s worth it to have the beautiful views sunrise and sunset. It was easy to get to brevard and hiking. Overall a very enjoyable stay! Will book again!
We enjoyed the view and privacy this cabin afforded. Our grandson woke up each morning excited to see the mountains shrouded in mist. We loved the proximity to Brevard, Pisgah National Forest, and DuPont Stste Park. The cabin has been updated nicely and is well stocked with many amenities.
My husband and I spent 4 nights in your lovely house and had a wonderful and very relaxing visit. The house was just what we wanted - quiet and comfortable, on a beautiful property. We were close enough to explore Brevard and also found great hiking nearby. Loved the convenience of the gas fireplace. Our dogs also had a great time.
Bear's Rest was exactly that! We hiked all day in Dupont and retreated to the top of a mountain for a great night's rest. The views were spectacular.
Caution- they are not kidding about the drive...it's steep...well worth it!
Just what we needed. The house is nice and the property is amazing, so peaceful and quiet. We woke up every morning and had coffee on the front porch and watched the sun come up over the ridgelines. Would definitely recommend to anyone that asks and return in the future.
Had a wonderful time - well equipped, comfortable home. Great outdoor spaces for relaxing and enjoying the views. Close to Brevard and to lots of activities, but feels like you're a million miles away. Loved being able to bring our pup. Would stay again despite two negatives - ants in the kitchen and a confusing HVAC situation.
We had a relaxing stay. The house is just as it appears in the pictures and it is really quiet at the end of the road. I was nervous about the driveway after reading some other posts. It really wasn’t bad - just one turn was a little extra! We will stay here again when we come up to the area!
Stay was nice. Get there before dark if at all possible. WiFi and TV not working but through communication w numbers on frig, the WiFi ended up working a day into our stay. Thank you so much!!
Bear's Rest is lovely and check in was the simplest we have ever experienced. The home is spotless and has everything you need. Brevard is lovely and eclectic. We came here for trout fishing and hiking deep into the mountains. We caught plenty of trout daily which helped make every day perfect to include waking up to stunning sunrises and sipping drinks on the deck to witness breathtaking sunsets. We will be back!
Great views! Get supplies before you go because you may not want to come off the mountain!
Truly amazing view. We have family close by so it was great to be close. We also worked while there and internet was great. Agree with getting there during the day for first trip up but once you know your way it was easy! Great spot for our girls (2older GSP) owners have upgraded couches which are very comfortable! We brought dog beds - as always - to make sure the pets stayed off of furniture! Highly recommend and would love to go back!
Moons Rest is a beautiful property with amazing views and a clean comfortable and attractive home. Mountain top curvy driveway as should be expected for described location . This is entirely manageable and we found it part of the appeal ( we have a 4 wheel drive diesel truck) . 1st trip up to house ideally done in daylight for best navigation. Ideal location for us ! Unparalleled views !
This place is wonderful. We enjoyed the secluded location and the feeling of being king of the hill. The road up was not bad as long as you took your time. Well outfitted home. Big yard and big decks with awesome views. If you’re lucky the donkey down the hill will call up to you.
This property is now my favorite place to stay in Brevard. There is a primary bedroom with a king bed on the bottom floor and on the second floor there is a king and a double in one room. Ceiling fans in all rooms. So nice to have the windows open in July! Amazing view and lovely grounds. Yes, the way up is steep, but my non 4 wheel drive suv made it fine in July.
We absolutely LOVED this house, it's location, and the most incredible views!! Amazing long-range views from the huge front porch, beautiful sunset views thru the budding trees from the side porch, and a mossy, soft mountaintop garden area that was so wonderfully serene and peaceful to explore!! We so enjoyed it that we stayed "home" much more than we planned, and just soaked in the serenity of the mountaintop, instead of hiking and hanging out with people in Brevard! This property is most definitely going on our WILL RETURN list!!
