Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Nestled in the quiet seclusion of a gated wildlife preserve, this three-story, three-bedroom, three-bath log cabin, affectionately named Willy Bear, is just a 15-minute drive from Black Mountain and the perfect vacation getaway for your group. Enjoy a variety of spacious outdoor areas, including a hot tub, deck, and fire pit. Relax on two screened porches -- there's even a swinging bed for afternoon naps.
Check out nearby Catawba Falls, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and downtown Black Mountain.
LIVING AREA
With gleaming hardwood floors and vaulted ceilings, the rustic-chic living room offers an ultra-comfortable retreat. Enjoy the warm ambiance of the gas fireplace while watching a movie on the 42inch TV with Blu-ray and Roku.
A second living area features a fireplace, two sofas, and an armchair.
KITCHEN & DINING
Work your culinary magic in a well-appointed kitchen, outfitted with beautiful granite countertops, a gas range, double sink, and dishwasher.
