Bear Creek Cabin offers a charming and well-stocked environment, with a functional wood stove and a sense of history. It is situated in a beautiful location with easy access to various trails. However, some amenities like utensils and firewood were lacking, and the wood stove may not adequately heat the cabin in winter.

Beautiful location within steps of several trails for varying ability levels. Only complaint is that the woodstove does not do a good job of heating the cabin in the winter - had to sit close to the stove to keep warm if I wanted to take my coat off inside.

The cabin was clean but previous renters did not fill the wood box or cut kindling. There are only two forks (one plastic) and 5 spoons in the cabin. The road was well maintained by Madison County. The cabin needs TP and dish soap.
