548 Bear Cub Dr #25, Spruce Pine, NC, 28777
About This Home
Welcome to your Fully Furnished Magical Mountain Getaway! Hidden away on a private road on Bear Den Mountain—but little more than a 20-minute drive to either Spruce Pine or Little Switzerland—this charming cabin offers the best of both worlds: privacy and practicality. With unrestricted forest views and within walking distance to hiking trails and waterfalls, the buyer of this charming cabin will appreciate that the property line on one side is adjacent to land protected by the Foothills Conservancy, while the Pisgah National Forest is only a few steps away on the other side—ensuring peace, quiet, and freedom from development. The desirable Spacious Skies Campground, located between the Blue Ridge Parkway and the very private Bear Cub Drive, adds another layer of safety and security—not to mention year-round family fun. Offered fully furnished (down to the bed linens, pots, and pans), the cabin is ready for immediate occupancy or an investment opportunity. The current owner has decorated and outfitted the interior and 30-foot-long screened in porch in a tasteful and inviting mountain cabin style that is sure to be both enticing and comfortable. With two bedrooms and two baths, along with a pull-out couch and a daybed with a trundle bed underneath, the cabin can sleep up to eight people. A renovated kitchen with butcher block countertops, a new sink, stove, and a dining booth that overlooks a mountain laurel garden serves as a wonderful gathering place. There is much to appreciate about this property, but to fully experience the magic, one only has to settle into one of the rocking chairs on the screened porch and—beverage of choice in hand—take in the beauty of the forest as far as the eye can see. Bear Den Mountain, a precursor to today’s “tiny house villages,” originally featured large manufactured vehicles later expanded with attached cabins and porches. These cabin/camper hybrids are a unique part of Western North Carolina mountain history. This 30-foot Yellowstone Camino Camper was placed in 1987, and in 2010 a cabin and deck were seamlessly added. Whether you are seeking a peaceful personal retreat, a turnkey vacation rental, or a place to create lasting mountain memories, this one-of-a-kind property is ready to welcome you home.
