Helen the beautiful little Bavarian Town is 38 miles southwest and an easy drive.PLEASE NOTE being in the mountains this is a" mountain driveway "but it is short and all asphalt and very stable.USE LOW GEAR.Just redone 08/27/2023.Note for newcomers to the area there are books in magazine form called "The Wayward Traveler"on site with many things to do places to eat etc. Very informative and for your use.We also send a packet "snail mail" with many things to do and see.Unfortunately we do not have garbage pickup.We tried the cans but couldn't keep the bears out.Reverse order down the hill.When you getto Poly Gap and Curt Dodson turn left.Poly Gap will deadend into U.S.hwy 76 take a left dump mile on right.Please don't leave trash out at night.It will be a big mess in a.m. Thanks Bill S

Birthday celebration
Celebrating brother’s birthday with family and friends. The location was perfect and the house was fully stocked with everything anyone would need. The view was unbelievable beautiful showing off all the magnificent fall colors from the deck; with a cross that lights up the night. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Very comfortable and gorgeous view!
The cabin was great- had everything you could need and very comfy. Close to a lot of attractions. The driveway is a little tricky but the gorgeous view is worth it. My only issue was that there was confusion about getting into the cabin and I tried calling the owner several times but got no response. He apologized but that was very frustrating.

Cozy and inviting.. home away from home.
The cabin is cozy and inviting. The mountain views are magnificent . Close to town, whitewater rafting and Tallulah Falls. We had a wonderful time. We can’t wait for our next trip back. The kids loved the views and catching fireflies. Wonderful Memories made. Thank you Bill and Karen for opening your cabin “Willie Bear” for others to share. As we ride home the kids are still talking about all the bears, views and walking around adventuring. They give you all thumbs up.

Mountain Escape
The rental was very charming. Mountain themed nick-knacks are everywhere. We saw something different each day.
View was excellent too. We did a lot of hiking and spent a lot of time on the balcony recovering from the hiking while enjoying the view.
We won't hesitate to return for our next mountain escape.
PS, If you use Google Maps, it may send you the wrong way on Screamer drive. Turn left on Screamer and the driveway is 50 yards away. Googe Maps says go right.

Williebear weekend
We were in the area to do music for a wedding. This cabin is very nice. I personally think it is a little over decorated and cluttered. A few things didn't work properly. But that didn't effect our stay. Still a nice place, spacious, just needs a little TLC. It is for sale so this may be the reason things appeared to need some attention. Drive way is a little difficult to navigate.

Enjoyed Williebear Cabin
Exactly as you see online. Bill was good with communication up to and during the stay. The driveway took some getting used to as I have full size pickup. But as stated it is freshly paved and solid.
Great location to head out to see things in the surrounding areas.

Wonderful secluded cabin
Best rental property I've every stay in! Owners very attentive, property had everything in the kitchen to prepare meals, loads of firewood for the fireplace. All mattresses on beds where comfortable. Steep grade to cabin so low gear is a must! Lots of birds, squirrels and chipmunks! Will definely be back!

Very nice house
We loved our stay was very nice and very well supplied with everything. We usually bring what we need but if we forgot something they had it. The house was clean for mosr part, think cleaning company needs to improve for Bill
And maybe update the pans? Wore out and rusty so did make cooking a little tuff.
Would highly recommend staying here,
Thanks Bill

Comfortable cabin in Clayton
The cabin was as listed. It is a roomy 3 level interior. Very convenient to popular tourist destinations. The views of Clayton and the mountains were very nice. The downside was the steep driveway with limited turnaround to go back down the driveway.
