Beautiful home!
The house was exactly as pictured! It get very luxurious. It was very clean, with lots of amenities to make the stay comfortable - cookware, utensils, refrigerator with ice maker, towels, games. Showers were comfortable with ample hot water. The steep drive up was intimidating the first time for this Florida driver, but the roads were good and we did it in a minivan with no issues. Their instructions take you a long route - we used Google Maps and got to the house quicker. During our visit (March) the nighttime temperatures got down below 20 degrees but the house never got cold. The amazing view of the sunset from the porch was worth the visit! There was plenty of firewood, but you might pick up some fresh wood at the convenience store at the bottom of the mountain, because the wood at the house was old and wouldn't burn. We spent most of our vacation in Asheville, but we carved out a day just to relax in the house and play games in front of the fire because it was so comfortable.

Great Christmas Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Bear and Bull Lodge. The property was beautiful and had stunning views. It was more than roomy enough for our party of 9 (ages 13-79). The kitchen was well equipped and we used it often in our stay. The only regret was that we didn’t spend more time in the home on vacation. We look forward to returning when Hayley Point Ski Resort completes their construction and opens which is just down the mountain from the property. Thank you for allowing our family to stay at your home. We look forward to our next visit.

Mountain Family Vacation
We celebrated my nephew’s 30th birthday! We had 3 families (6 parents & 6 kids) stay and we all were comfortable. We had space to be all together and separate space if we needed alone time. The view of the sunset is amazing!

Great mountain getaway
Bear and Bull did not disappoint. The view is amazing. Be sure to catch the sunset! We were rained out for all the outdoor activities we had planned but we were still able to enjoy sitting outside under the covered deck. We stayed with dear friends and their children. The house is a great size for several families staying together. We all enjoyed everything Bear and Bull had to offer. Looking forward to staying here again!

Beautiful, quiet, remote.
We booked for a brief Easter holiday getaway and the lodge was perfect for our family of 5 adults and 3 children under 8. Spacious, comfortable, rustic enough but also well equipped. We all enjoyed the hot tub and arcade game. The TVs are a plus along with the gas fireplace options a a nice gas grill. The things to know-before-you-go are, 1) It is really not in the Ashville area so for Ashville based activities know it's at least 1 hr to anything in Ashville, thus, basically a day-trip. This is the reason for 4 stars in accuracy of property description 2) There is a lovely little Wolfe Provisions store about 9 min down the mountain. They have a small coffee bar alongside basic necessities and some nice gift items. They serve very good breakfast and lunch sandwiches and they even have several gluten free items. In the same building beside the store is a small, very nice spa with massage therapy and an esthetician. Beyond this, there is nothing in terms of food, groceries or shopping closer than Mars Hill which is a solid 25 min away. 3) There is nothing within 20-40 minutes for children, so take their entertainment with you. There is a Nintendo (very nice extra), but our game console aficionados couldn't get it to work. We would definitely go back for R&R but not plan daily activities to do in Ashville since that travel time really cuts into the time away.

Exactly what we needed! :)
We hosted a surprise 40th birthday gathering and couldn't have asked for a better spot! A gorgeous view complete with a hot tub. The kitchen especially, had items that we couldn't have even anticipated that we needed. Appliances - amazing! Plenty of dishes. There was even a little day cooler that we used to pack snacks in to take to the Biltmore. The fireplaces definitely set the vibe and are very easy to operate. WIFI worked great! All of the rooms were very spacious. I was also impressed with the sound. We stayed in the main bedroom and were able to sleep in even though other guests were in the kitchen making breakfast. Having three bathrooms with three showers was pretty awesome too! Everyone had plenty of room to mingle or chill out and relax. The host was very easy to get ahold of and we appreciate them! We all felt very safe being in the gated community. Loved seeing deer on the way up and down. We almost did not book this lodge because of it being "45" minutes away from Asheville (our primary destination) but the drive went very quickly and we would have been missing out on this perfect getaway in the mountain. We would definitely stay here again!
