About this property

The black bears den

About this space
Behind a small gated community, this newly built, 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom custom-built home will become your favorite getaway. The Black Bears Den is located only 8 minutes from downtown Banner Elk and 15 minutes from two ski resorts. The open concept will allow families to enjoy each other's company while taking in the views around the fireplace. Enjoy the fresh mountain air while soaking in the hot tub or while roasting marshmallows around the wood burning fire pit.
The space
This home was built with guest comfort in mind. Make yourself a home cooked meal in our fully equipped kitchen. There are two dining areas with seating for 10 guests, with an additional four stools at the custom built kitchen island. Off the kitchen is bedroom #1, the master bedroom has a king bed, walk-in closet and a large master bath with a free standing tub. Bedroom #2 is also located on the main floor. This cozy guest bedroom comes with a queen and Jack-N-Jill bathroom. You will find the laundry room on the main floor as well. The back deck is accessed from the living room and master, and features a covered outdoor dining, grill, seating area and wood burning fire pit (wood is not provided).

The downstairs den provides a second living area where guests can spread out. Warm up by the fireplace, enjoy a drink from the bar and play some pool. Step out on the lower level deck and relax in the adirondack chairs or the hot tub. This floor you will find bedroom #3 with a queen bed and Jack-N-Jill bathroom. Bedroom #4 is the bunk room with two sets of twin bunk beds and access to the shared bathroom. All living rooms and bedrooms (except the bunk room) have smart TVs.
Guest access
The whole house is yours to use! During the snowy days take a slide ride down the driveway with our two slides located in the garage.

About the host

Hosted by Monica Thomas

Host profile image
We live full time in south Florida with our two sons. We chose to put our second home on the rental market to share it with others. It’s a place where great memories can be made.

Why they chose this property

We came upon this neighborhood in 2019 and bought 3 lots. This is the second home we built in the neighborhood with a third to start construction later this year. It’s a great location with beautiful views, quiet and safe behind the gates.

What makes this property unique

It’s a new construction with an updated look, super comfortable for guest.
