"Casa De Bear" is a beautiful private mountain retreat in the Holly Forest section of Sapphire Valley. The house sits on three private acres with a long range west view of Chimney Top Mountain. The property is lushly landscaped with many unique perennials, laurel, shrubs, trees and pathways. There are two private decks, including a separate private deck overlooking the creek. You can hear the rushing water from the deck of the house! We also have several outdoor sitting areas with an arbor, quaint screened porch, and private Hot Springs Hot Tub.
The interior of the home is cozy and well appointed. The kitchen comes fully equipped with all brand new stainless steel appliances, including a gas stove, microwave, dishwasher, and all utensils. It is open to the great room with Satellite TV/DVD system, a rock fireplace and beautiful view. There are two newly carpeted master suites with king-size beds. The main master suite has a newly renovated master bath with all stone spa shower and vanity with granite countertop. The second master suite bathroom also has a new granite countertop and slate floor. The downstairs bedroom has two twin beds and full private bath. The downstairs also features a large den with built-in bookcases, Vermont gas heater, and a big screen Satellite TV with DVD player. The entire downstairs has new berber carpet. The spacious loft has a queen sleeper, desk and a daybed. Occupants will also have use of the two car garage and laundry room with washer and dryer. MORE PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST

We just wanted you to know that this was one of our best vacations. Our eldest son (10 yrs old) said "This place is the best". My mom who is 81 enjoyed herself as well. After we got all our bags packed and were ready to leave, my husband said well we have a half hour left, lets just sit and enjoy ourselves on the deck!

"We just arrived home and the first thing that I wanted to do was to tell you how much we enjoyed our N.C. vacation in your mountain home. It was perfect for 6 adults and 2 children. We all decided that we want to do it again next summer. I plan to tell all my friends about your great accomodations. Thanks again and I will stay in touch about another vacation."
