Relax & Enjoy the Year-Round Mountain Views in this Beautiful Blue Ridge Cabin

Lazy Bear Lodge is a short 10 to 15-minute drive from downtown Blue Ridge, Aska Adventure Area, and Lake Blue Ridge! Wineries and local breweries are also nearby! Or stay in and enjoy the beautiful 2000 sqft cabin and 1500 sqft of deck with year-round mountain views.

Our cabin is nestled in the mountains at the end of a long driveway. Four wheel drive is NOT needed! There is only a handful of cabins on our street and no close neighbors, giving you a private and romantic setting perched on two acres.

The Lazy Bear Lodge welcomes you into an inviting family room with vaulted ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace reaching two stories high. The open concept of the main floor includes a fully equipped kitchen, with everything you need to make meals. There are homages to bears throughout the cabin, along with nature-themed accents like acorn décor, rustic log railings, log beds, and lamps made of antlers.

Imagine the ways to spend your time here. We like to sink into the comfy reclining couch or loveseat and stare into the Blue Ridge Mountains, or flip on the LED Smart TV and watch a movie. But if you’re seeking some quiet time, the large loft overlooking the family room is a great place to curl up with a book. And our favorite part of this cabin is the 1500 sqft of covered deck! The rocking chairs are a great place to bear witness to the breathtaking mountain views. When lunch or dinner times arrive, fire up the Weber grill, connected to a 150-gallon propane tank.

When you’re done cooking, head down to the basement where there are plenty of games to play. Have a blast in the game room, playing air hockey, foosball, and board games. But the fun won’t end when the sun goes down. We like to get a fire going in the fire pit to make S’mores or take a late-night dip in the 4-person hot tub.

When you’re ready to hibernate, look no further than the three cozy bedrooms. The inviting master bedroom upstairs has a log style king bed with comfy mattress and a private balcony overlooking the valley, with mountain views. Before bed, grab a glass of wine and draw a hot bath in the jacuzzi tub, located in the master suite bathroom. On the main floor, the comfy queen bedroom suite opens out to the large wraparound deck. Step out from either bedroom to start your day watching an unforgettable sunrise. There’s also a bunkhouse downstairs with three twins, one full, and one trundle twin.
