Indulge in a quiet, rustic escape to towering trees and fresh air here at Bear Print Mountain Lodge and bring the whole family along to make lasting memories in no time. This retreat feels perfectly secluded, yet you won't have to venture far with downtown Waynesville close by, offering shopping, dining, and attractions you definitely don't want to miss. Plus, year-round fun is just waiting to be had with Lake Junaluska, Asheville, Biltmore Estate, and the Smoky Mountains all a scenic drive away! Waynesville Parks & Recreation is five miles from the home, and guests will love spending an afternoon at The Rose Walk, just eight miles away.

When everyone has had their fill of adventure, gather back at home base each evening and enjoy a cocktail on the screened porch overlooking the extensive woods. The balcony boasts a wonderful mountain view, perfect for catching up with old friends over a glass of evening wine. Summer cookouts will be a no-brainer with the gas grill on the deck, and everyone will have a blast gathering beside the firepit as the stars come out. For a bit of fun inside, prepare a favorite recipe in the full kitchen, or head downstairs and host an air hockey tournament!

With so much fun to be had, a visit to Bear Print Mountain Lodge may just become a family tradition!

Christmas Getaway

The cabin stay was good. Being the holidays we expected it to have been decorated at least some.in past we loved that and added to our joy. Certainly it was my fault for assuming. All in all a nice stay.

The property location was gorgeous and loved the house. The beds need to be fixed. If we had more people with us we would not have been able to stay because mattresses did not fit 2 if the beds.

Thanksgiving Get Away 2023

We rented this property for a long Thanksgiving weekend with our daughter and family and couldn’t have been happier with the home. It was very clean, had a beautiful view and the grandsons loved having the downstairs for their own space and loved the air hockey table. We were close to downtown Waynesville and hiking trails which we all enjoyed. We had a problem with the microwave and hot tub which Vacasa responded to promptly which impressed us a lot. We would highly recommend this property to anyone and are planning on doing another stay there next year!

Family Time

The cabin was pretty clean. Some dishes had to be rewashed before use. Kitchen had what was needed, but in the photos and description, a drip coffee maker was featured. In its place when we arrived was a Keurig with carafe side and single side. However, no carafe was available. The fireplaces were a nice addition, as was the hot tub and air hockey table. Floors are not soundproof, so they were a little loud for guests sleeping downstairs. The drive is steep as described and there are no hiking trails nearby, but our family was there just to hangout and relax so that didn’t bother us! The town of Waynesville was super cute with some good shopping and fun places for coffee and eating. There’s a WL-mart nearby so grocery pick up before getting to cabin was easy. All in all, it was a nice place to gather.

Excellent Mountain Get Away-Retreat

We loved everything about the home. Very clean and perfect set up and location for our anniversary. We could not however get the upstairs gas fireplace to turn on. We followed instructions for manual turn on and our only guess is maybe the propane was out? I emailed customer service our first night and didn’t get a resolution. This is not a complaint. It’s merely to let the property owners know.

Cute Cabin

Cute little cabin. Kitchen could be a little better equipped for cooking. Sink in master bath would not drain, dryer door would not stay closed and sheets on master bed were well worn! Road was very curvy but we got used to it. But over all a nice little place.

Beautiful Cabin in the Mountains

When we showed up we used the given code to unlock the deadbolt which worked, but the separate door knob was locked as well. We had to wait 1.5 hours for a local property manager to come let us in with a physical key. It was annoying because when you call for help you call a call center and then they submit your request to a local manager and it just takes time for the message to get around to someone who can help you. The local manager was very sweet and apologetic though. The house was lovely. The kitchen had plenty of cookware. The gas fireplaces were nice to warm up by in the cooler evenings. The hot tub was a nice addition too. We had a lovely time exploring Waynesville’s charming shops and farmers market.

Beautiful Cabin

The cabin beautiful and just as advertised. Very comfortable with everything you need. The road to get to the cabin is a little scary, especially at night. Although not in the listing of amenities, the cabin does have a hot tub. My family had a wonderful stay!

Comfortable and Quiet

Cabin has everything you need and the appliances are very modern. Wi-Fi was super fast. View was fantastic and the area was quiet and relaxing. Beds were comfortable and the jetted tub was very nice. The top deck with the fire pit was perfect for keeping warm and hanging out in the evenings. 5/5

Perfect Stay!

Bear Print Mountain Lodge was the perfect cabin for our western NC vacation! We found the cabin exceptionally clean and well provisioned. It was larger than we actually needed but it met all of our needs and desires for a reasonable price. The jetted tub was nice for relaxing after a day of sight seeing and hiking! There were several nice restaurants in Waynesville and although the road is definitely a windy mountain road it is in good condition and the location was well suited for our adventures. We loved our stay here!

Wonderful Cabin

This was the most beautiful cabin we have stayed in! It was also super clean too. We had a party of 4 adults, 2 children, and dogs. It was spacious with a gorgeous view. The cabin had everything you could possibly need. All the beds were firm but we would definitely recommend to others based on the seclusion, cleanliness, space, and overall beauty.

Communication Needs to be Better

When we arrived there was someone still working on the property. He was nice but a heads up could have taken place. When he left he forgot to return the key to the lockbox, the next day we left and locked up. Came home, opened and found no key to enter the place. Multiple calls of misinformation and passing is to several individuals we were able to get a key…several hours later. This area needs to be vastly improved. Property is beautiful!!

Nice cabin in the woods!!

This house was just as described. The house was very clean! Plenty of space for 4 adults and 3 kids. Gas fire pit on deck was perfect to sit around n the evening! The road to get up to the cabin has lots of twists and turns, as do most mountain roads. Master bedroom and closet were huge! Thanks for the great stay!!
