September Getaway
This was our second trip to Bear Lake and won’t be our last! We love the reserve and the surrounding areas of Cashiers and Sylva. This house is in a great location near the entrance of Bear Lake Reserve. It was clean, homey, and had a beautiful view! We also loved the screened in porch. It’s a perfect home for our long weekend getaways with the family and dog!

Amazing
We had the most amazing stay at Black Bear Lodge. The house is beautiful and very well kept. The view is wonderful and sitting in the screened in deck was so peaceful. Our kids had a blast using the pools and marina area as well as fishing in the Mill Pond. The owner was fantastic and gave us excellent hiking and fishing recommendations. We will be coming back!
