Clean home, great views, and the owners have thought of everything.

Bear’s View was outstanding. The home sits atop Thunderbird Mountain overlooking Lake Santeetlah. The views are amazing with wrap around decks on both levels to look down on the lake and long range mountains. The main level has a master bedroom with tub and walk-in shower. The main deck is also on this level which was good for gampie who has mobility issues. The deck has ring toss, a new grill, and great furniture so that most of our time was spent outside. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. And there are TV’s with direct tv in every room. The downstairs level has another full Living room, two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The kids room has two singles. The review says room for 6, but I think if the owner ever decides to put bunk beds in the kids room, it would be a cabin for 8 easily. Two families of four as we sometimes need. And there is another large deck off this lower level with swing chairs. The new owners have clearly down some nice work adding a hot tub, fire ring, and sitting area around the fire ring. The house was amazing. Graham County is a dry county so plan accordingly. But the Historic Tapoco Lodge, which is a wonderful place for lunch or dinner, does serve adult beverages. We highly recommend eating at the Lodge. Great food! There are two places to rent boats which was a great day out. We found some rope swings and rocks for the kids to jump off all around the lake. Highly recommend the short hike to Yellow Creek Falls to swim in the swimming hole at the base of the falls. The hike is short but a little rugged for a bit. And the cabin is close to Bryson City, Fontana, the Nantahala Outdoor Center, and The Tail of the Dragon. Highly recommend for families with young kids rafting on the Nantahala. Very tame River. And highly recommend eating at the The Big Wesser and The Rivers End, both at the NOC. Nothing but good things to say about Bear’s View. Thank you for the stay!

We've been coming to Lake Santeetlah for 26 years and we believe it's the most beautiful place on earth. Bear's View Cabin capitalizes on the natural beauty and adds the touch of a great host. The Johnsons have a beautiful home and generously share all the little things that make a stay so much nicer. From the Sonos speakers to the Yeti coffee mugs, you'll feel like a cared-for guest while staying here. We loved the hot tub, the space heater on the deck, and feeling like we were tucked in the woods by ourselves. Oh, and have I mentioned the view? Five stars, two thumbs up, we'd definitely stay here again.
