Rest Assured in Black Bear Resort-Hike, Ski, Swim, Bike, Pickleball, and Relax!

We welcome you (and your dogs) to come enjoy our cabin located in the wonderful Black Bear Resort. Black Bear now has a newly refurbished outdoor pool and 2 pickle ball courts overlooking the beautiful wildlife refuge available for our guests to enjoy. Our cabin features enough beds to sleep 8 people comfortably! It includes a full functioning kitchen, a real wood burning fireplace, washer and dryer, and a full bath with a double jacuzzi tub that is perfect for relaxing after exploring this absolutely beautiful area in West Virginia. Our cabin also features a deck that overlooks the Canaan Wildlife Refuge. And yes we have wifi!

Inside our cabin you will find a comfortable kitchen and living area with a flat screen tv w/roku built-in, blu-ray/dvd player (with a selection of movies), cable tv, fireplace (with plenty of wood to burn already at the cabin). One queen bed is located on the main level, twin bunk beds and a double bed are located in the loft area, and a double bed in the lower level that has a door leading to the deck that views the wildlife refuge. Loft and lower level are both accessed by a spiral staircase. In the loft you will also find another flat screen tv with cable connection and an xbox 360 with games for your enjoyment. To help entertain families, kids and friends we have a board games and coloring books too!

In the kitchen there is a refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, coffee pot, and on the deck is a gas grill for those that love to cook outdoors. For the days that you do not want to prepare your meal at the cabin you can venture to the historic towns of Davis (4.5 miles) or Thomas (7.3 miles) and try out one of their delicious restaurants or breweries.

Being located in Black Bear Resort you have FREE access to their amenities which includes pickle ball courts, fishing ponds, fire pits, miniature golf course, volleyball court, playground, and a walking trail over looking the beautiful Canaan Valley.

If you decide to leave the peaceful serenity of the resort, our cabin is close to wonderful places to explore in every season of the year.

In the winter you can head over to Blackwater Falls State Park (7.8 Miles from cabin) for snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and the longest sled run in the U.S. with a conveyor to take you back to the top! Or visit White Grass Cross Country Ski Resort (8 miles and it was rated #1 in U.S. for cross country skiing by USA Today). If you want downhill skiing or snowboarding you can choose from Canaan Valley Resort State Park (6 miles) or Timberline Four Seasons Resort (7.8 miles). Canaan Valley Resort State Park also has 1,200 foot tubing park and an ice skating rink!

Spring is when you can find some of the best fly fishing in WV! Black Bear Resort is surrounded by Federal Wilderness Land spring is a great time to view the wildlife.

Summer is when visitors can enjoy cooler mountain temperatures with plenty of hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, or white water rafting in the great outdoors. If you are seeking hiking and beautiful views adventure over to Dolly Sods (17.4 miles) in the Monongahela National Forest. Be sure to keep driving until you find the views! Blackwater Falls is also a great place to visit and hike in any season!

With cooler temperatures, Fall is when the trees change colors to vibrant reds, golds, oranges and browns. This normally occurs mid to late September. This is another time to go see Dolly Sods as the Huckleberry and Blueberries turn a vibrant red all through the valleys.

If you want to travel a little further, you can spend a day at Seneca Rocks (27.8 miles) best known for its rocky cliffs, beautiful views and mountain climbing. If you enjoy exploring caves you can head to Smoke Hole Caverns (41.3 miles) or Seneca Caverns (35.1 miles).

Great time in the snow

We enjoyed a nice stay in the West Virginia mountains, with a comfortable fire in the fireplace and two feet of snow around us. The cabin is comfortable and well equipped, and the host was outstanding.

Perfect Getaway

Our mid-May, mid-week stay was quiet and peaceful. It was right in the middle of our hiking at Dolly Sods and Blackwater Falls State Park. The cabin was layed out great, had all we could ask for. We enjoyed a nice fire three nights.

Beautiful

The property and cabins are beautiful. Nice views, quiet, friendly and felt very safe. The cabin was clean and comfortable. We watched deer in the woods right behind our cabin from our porch. We enjoyed the jacuzzi and the fireplace every night of our week-long stay. We hated to leave.

Great spot to enjoy beautiful Canaan Valley!

We had a great time at the Rest Assured cabin! We planned our trip to see the Perseids meteor shower and couldn’t have asked for a better spot - we saw tons of shooting stars. We also enjoyed hiking in Dolly Sods and exploring Davis. With 2 humans and a dog, we had more than enough room. We enjoyed the patio and grill, and walking around the Black Bear Resort.

Perfect for our needs!

We were in town for the Highlands Sky 40 mile race. The cabin was perfect for our needs. The resort was quiet and centrally located to Blackwater Falls and Canaan Valley. There are tons of trails and wilderness in the area to explore. The cabin was cozy and comfortable, and deceivingly roomy. Laura and Jeff were great to work with, and very responsive. We'd love to stay here again!

Weekend getaway

Beautiful location with all the woods and very very clean. My only downside for this place was it wasn’t a true 3 bedroom as 2 of the rooms did not have a 4th wall. Made navigating the space with children very difficult for naps and bedtime. Being multiple sound machines and it can work.

Nice cabin, functional in most cold nights.

The coldest night we experienced was 9 degrees f; the cabin was fine. (Keep the supply of wood inside dry. If you anticipate cooking pancakes, bring your own large frypan or grill.) The deer came up to the cabin's back on snowy days.

My Stay

The cabin was very nice. It did not have air conditioning, but to be fair, it did not list that in the amenities. So I should have read closer. My sons would have certainly swam in the pool, and I thought a resort should have had the pool ready at the beginning of June. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Canaan Valley Getaway

With all the Covid craziness going on and having to change our summer trip plans, found this wonderful cabin only a few hours from home in Canaan Valley. It was well kept and fit our family well. My brother and parents were able to book a cabin in the Black Bear resort too, which was very nice. Description of the property was very accurate. Only the jacuzzi was out of order and should have been noted on the listing. Not a big deal at all as we had a great time biking, hiking and enjoying the outdoors in the valley. The resort pool was nice for a relaxing afternoon or to play with the kids. Also finding a dog friendly rental is difficult so thanks to the owners for allowing pets, as our pup is part of the family too. The kids had a great time with the spiral staircase! We definitely plan on using this cabin again if we go back to Canaan!
