Ascend to new heights at The Bear Lodge in Maggie Valley, NC! Located in a gated mountain community at an elevation of 5,300', this majestic lodge will "wow" you with year-round, long-range views of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park that you can enjoy from the covered hot tub on the deck. Treat yourself to this cabin retreat which is centered around the light-filled main living area, where picture windows allow you to gaze out at the stars in any season. The centerpiece stone fireplace is perfect for gatherings, and wood-covered walls and ceilings and custom cherry-wood kitchen cabinets add to the dreamy log-cabin vibe. If food and dining are central to your family's activities, The Bear Lodge gives you the opportunity to really put on a show with a fully-equipped kitchen and a family dining table. Your group will love the spaciousness of this home when it's time to retire. Your guests staying in the upper-level loft suite will enjoy the claw-foot soaking tub. A bedroom on the main floor gives easy access to guests, and the walk-out lower level includes a bunk bed and several bonus sleeping spaces. Western North Carolina nature offers something special to guests at The Bear Lodge, including unbelievable autumn colors, snow-white winter evenings by the fireplace, and wildlife sightings of wild turkeys, deer, elk, and black bears. Experience mile-high living at The Bear Lodge while soaking in the bubbly hot tub and enjoying the breathtaking Smoky Mountain sunsets! This Asheville vacation rental is located in Maggie Valley and is approximately 55 minutes from downtown Asheville.

Important Property Notes
• 4WD or AWD Required
Often the best views in WNC are the hardest to access. The property you are staying at requires a 4WD or AWD vehicle to access year-round due to the steep gravel driveway. Please ensure that your vehicle is properly equipped and the 4WD/AWD feature is engaged before attempting to access the property. Vehicles that are not equipped with this feature may incur service charges for towing if they get stuck, or for repairs to the driveway necessitated by a 2WD vehicle spinning for traction. Please ensure your vehicle has sufficient clearance as well (i.e. SUV, Truck, or raised sedan). For the extra effort, however, you are rewarded with seclusion, beauty, and a lot of fun just getting there!
• Seasonal Gas Fireplaces are not operational between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
• Travel Insurance Highly Recommended. During the winter months, we highly recommend you consider CSA Travel Insurance to protect your vacation investment from potential winter weather events that could prevent access to the home. No refunds shall be provided if you cannot access the home due to winter weather.
