Featuring 3 bedrooms, one game room and 2 bathrooms, this mountain home has everything you need for your perfect vacation: kitchen appliances, full bath with traditional shower/tub downstairs and custom glass shower upstairs, with lots of deck. Stay a few days and take in the local sites or stay a week and use Black Bear House as your starting point for day trips to Cherokee, Asheville, Blowing Rock, Boone, and Linville Falls up and down the Parkway or skiing at Sugar Mountain, Beech and others. We're in the middle of all that Western North Carolina has to offer! Local attractions include: the historic Altapass Orchard (featuring live music and festivities throughout most of the year), Springmaid Mountain (horseback riding, tubing, fly fishing), Linville Falls, Linville Caverns, Wilson Creek Wilderness Area and many other hiking trails all within a 15-30 minute drive up the Parkway to the north; Little Switzerland, Crabtree Falls and Mt. Mitchell are 15-45 minutes down the Parkway to the south; Table Rock, Lake James, Blowing Rock, Tweetsie Railroad, Boone, Grandfather Mountain, Sugar Mountain and Hawks Nest are all within a 45minute drive. Our section of the Blue Ridge Parkway between Highway 226 and the Bear Den exit is typically open year-round. Check local weather conditions and the Parkway website in the winter for possible temporary closures. A 4-wheel drive is not needed to access our property unless there has been a heavy snow. Our community road is maintained year-round and our driveway is motorcyclists friendly and has pretty much flat access. Parking area will easily fit 4 cars. Main source of heat for the home is electric with gas fireplace and heater as backup. We hope you will enjoy our Black Bear House in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Pisgah National Forest! May The Forest Be With You! https://www.facebook.com/PisgahForestPark Black Bear House thoroughly disinfected before and after each guest by our very-thorough cleaning team.
