Don't miss out on this newly listed vacation rental!! Enjoy the seclusion of a creekside mountain vacation in this 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin which borders the beautiful Nantahala National Forest of the Great Smoky Mountains. Let the sounds of the rushing waters soothe your soul day and night. Enjoy bonfires and even pitch a tent for the night on our property across the river which is lit by festive cafe lights strung around the campfire. Hike through the Nantahala National Forest right out the backdoor. Or if you prefer the creature comforts, enjoy the fully equipped kitchen, comfortable new beds (King and Queen), Wi-Fi, large flat screen TV with Dish Programming.

Conveniently located on Wayah Road, a paved road, the home is easily accessible even during inclement weather. We're just far enough out of downtown Franklin (8 miles) to be secluded yet we're directly on the way to Wayah Bald, Nantahala Outdoor Center and Lake Nantahala. Franklin/Macon County has 16 local water falls, world renown gem mining, and numerous biking and hiking trails including the Appalachian Trail and Bartram Trail. Grocery shopping and restaurants are less than 10 minutes away. A quick 15 minutes to downtown Franklin you'll find antique shops, local crafts, restaurants, entertainment and two locally owned Micro Brewery Pubs. Adventures are abundant in every direction - or you may choose to never leave once you've arrived!

About Kathy Reynolds
Hello, thanks for viewing our property! We bought this home in 2016 because we loved the location and the fact it is always 10 degrees cooler here than in downtown Franklin! We live a large part of the time in Georgia where summertime heat is inescapable and the Fall leaves are never quite as spectacular. We decided in June of 2017 to share what we think is a wonderful mountain retreat with others. We hope you love it as much as we do!
Kathy and Chris

Beautiful Getaway
The setting is beautiful! The home has a warm and cozy feel but it's plenty spacious for 6 people. The owners are very personable and responsive. My sons loved the creek and that the forest starts in the backyard! Great view of the creek from the sitting room and master bedroom. Lots of windows for natural light and a cool breeze. Nicely furnished. It's the best of both worlds....a quiet home in the forest, about 30 minutes away from the lake and just a short drive to restaurants, shops and and retail stores.
Spectacular retreat tucked away in a private cove * Bearly There *
While I was not personally able to visit, I gave my reservation to my brother who had not too far to travel and timing was perfect for a week off. His first impression was 'just lovely' from the charming appointments of the cabin to the lulling sounds of the rushing creek to the quiet surround of beautiful lush green trees. It was an instant realization of total relaxation away from the stresses and demands of normal life.
He took a hike from the cabin and saw spectacular mountain vistas with little waterfalls trickling along the way. The glories of all fill the soul!
Franklin was conveniently just the right distance away for grocery shopping and other attractions. About half an hour away is the Cherokee Indian Reservation and a little farther you can take a 4 hour train trip through the Nantahala Gorge from Bryson City. ...or you can just stay close to Bearly There and explore all to see nearby and just 'be'.
The owners, Kathy and Chris are marvelous and have been very amenable. They are in the throes of building a bridge over the creek to the other bank where the firepit sits. My communications have been with Kathy, and I have found her highly responsive.
My brother was so pleased with all Bearly There afforded, I gave him two more nights! It's my turn next, and I am looking forward to knowing this entrancing haven.
Wonderful, peaceful time. Can't wait to go back!!!
We had a wonderful time. The creek was beautiful and very peaceful. Cell service and wifi didn't work and not a working fireplace. Besides that everything was perfect. Very cozy and comfortable. It was actually nice without the wifi or internet. It gave us more family time to play cards and hang out with our teenagers. It was nice being able to hear the creek from our bedroom. Loved it!!! We will definitely stay there again!!!!
Great place!
Loved our stay. It was a very clean and cozy home. A great location and I recommend driving up about 8.5 miles to Wayah Bald. We saw a few flurries! The beds were comfortable and cozy. The stream was so relaxing. The only thing I would have enjoyed more was the area across the stream. The access across is not for the elderly. It would be nice to have a safe little bridge to cross the stream and enjoy the fire. I recommend this rental!!!! We hope to go back again soon!
Plan on staying again
We really enjoyed the creek that runs behind the house. You can sleep in the back bedroom with the windows open listen to it flowing to fall asleep. The living room furniture is so much more comfortable than any other cabin we have stayed in. Looks like the owner is working on modernising it, the decking and windows seem new. Overall a comfortable quite place to stay with grocery stores and restaurants approximately 15 miles away.
Incredible Property with the peaceful sound of the creek right outside.
The house was clean and had everything we needed. The outside decks offered incredible views of the creek right outside. Nothing better than having the doors open listening to the water. Will definitely rent here again.
