About this home

Your Mountain Haven Is Calling! Private Woods, Cool Summer Breezes & Four-Season Adventure Imagine spending your summer surrounded by towering hardwoods, the peaceful sounds of nature, and the refreshing mountain air of Western North Carolina—all while being just 15 minutes from downtown! Tucked away within the desirable Bear Den / Spacious Skies Campground, near the Blue Ridge Parkway at Milepost 324.8, this inviting mountain retreat offers a wonderful blend of woodland privacy, comfort, and convenience. Set on a wooded 1.253-acre homesite, this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath cabin offers 975 square feet of comfortable living space. Vaulted ceilings, warm natural light, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace create a welcoming atmosphere, while the screened porch and spacious open deck invite you to sip your morning coffee, enjoy the fresh mountain air, and take in the surrounding beauty. Outdoor living is part of the charm! Gather with family and friends on the deck, relax in the charming gazebo, or imagine adding a hot tub to create your own special spot to unwind beneath the trees and stars. With ample parking for at least four vehicles, there's room for family and friends to join you for a mountain getaway. Love the outdoors? You'll find plenty of ways to enjoy it here. The nearby Blue Ridge Parkway, Pisgah National Forest, and surrounding protected natural areas offer opportunities for scenic drives, hiking, waterfalls, fishing, kayaking, and wildlife watching. Popular destinations include Grandfather Mountain, Sugar Mountain and Beech Mountain ski resorts, the Toe River, and numerous mountain streams and fishing creeks. Best of all, you can enjoy that tucked-away wilderness feeling without sacrificing convenience. Approximately 15 minutes from downtown, you're close enough to enjoy local shops, restaurants, and everyday necessities, then return to the peace and quiet of your wooded retreat. And don't think the fun ends when summer does! With central HVAC for year-round comfort and a wood-burning fireplace for cozy evenings, this cabin is ready to be enjoyed in every season. Winter brings nearby skiing, snow tubing, scenic drives, and the breathtaking beauty of snow-dusted mountain peaks. Spring welcomes wildflowers and rushing waterfalls, summer brings cool mountain breezes and outdoor adventures, and autumn transforms the hillsides into a spectacular display of color. Whether you're looking for a summer hideaway, a weekend escape, or a place to enjoy mountain living throughout the year, this property offers the feel of a wilderness retreat with the comforts of a well-appointed cabin. Don't let another mountain season pass you by! Come see this inviting retreat and discover the pleasures of having your own place in the mountains—where every season brings something special.
