Bear Creek Retreat

Cozy pet friendly cabin retreat in Carolina Vistas in Robbinsville NC. Beautiful views of the valley and majestic mountains from the large wrap around deck. Quiet and peaceful, close to the Tail of the dragon, the south entrance of The Great Smoky Mountain National Park/cades cove area and Fontana Dam/Village. Endless hiking/fishing/ water sport activities to choose from in the area; along with browsing the shops or dining in one of the small nearby towns like Bryson City or Sylva.
The space
The cabin is warm and inviting. You can bring your pet for an additional 40.00 fee. There is plenty if room to roam around the cabin and take a walk with your dog if you like. There is a firepit area down in the front of the cabin if you want to roast some hotdogs or make some smores, or just sip and chill. The deck has a grill and is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee as you plan your days activities. The interior is all beautiful tongue and groove pine with a cathedral ceiling , living area with gas log fireplace that operates off a remote adjoined by a dining area with a coffee/wine bar that opens into the full kitchen . Off that area is a bedroom with a new queen bed with a dresser and closet. There is also a full bath with a shower/tub combo. Up in the loft is another new queen bed with a dresser - just watch your head if you are tall...the center of the room is about 6 ft or so. Great area for the kids!
Guest access
You have full access to the entire space. There is plenty of space for parking. The laundry is in the heated garage and the key to the door is hanging on the key rack in the cabin. The garage area is available for you to store your motorcycles/mountain bikes /ATVs/ kayaks etc for an additional 15.00 per stay...just let me know.
Other things to note
We are in a little development called Carolina Vistas . There are neighbors but the cabin is still relatively private. Please be kind and keep any noise and music to a minimum after the sun sets. We are in the mountains so please keep an eye out for wildlife.

Clean, very comfortable home with lots to do for adults and kids: TV, videos, games, puzzles, books and some stocked items to help, if visitors have forgotten some condiments.We appreciated the first aid supplies. The area was peaceful and quiet. It was not far from a boat put in.

My pup and I had a lovely long weekend at Bear Creek cabin. We spent most of our time on the front covered deck (I super enjoyed watching a rainstorm roll in!) but also took some walks around the neighborhood; my pup loved all the smells! Some things about the cabin I particularly appreciated: I work remotely and the Wifi was excellent, the tv had the Peacock app so I was able to watch the football match I was hoping to watch, and I forgot shower soap but there was body wash in the shower. I’m also a solo female traveler and felt totally safe while at the cabin.

Charming, secluded cabin, conveniently located just off highway 28. Everything was clean and comfortable. Absolutely no complaints about the home. My only non-5-star thought concerns the somewhat rustic gravel road that connects Lower Tuskegee Rd to the nicely paved approach and driveway. It's not a big deal for me personally. I just wasn't expecting it. If you're staying here with a high performance, low ground clearance kind of vehicle, just be aware that, albeit relatively short, a gravel road is involved.
