​​​​​​​Centrally located to all that Western North Carolina has to offer in way of attractions and activities, you can easily travel to town for entertainment or stay close to home for Gateway Mountain's exclusive amenities & 3,000-acre nature preserve. Enjoy access to lush wooded forests, gorgeous waterfalls, and stunning mountaintop views. The community also has two small lakes and a trout pond for catch-and-release fishing (no license required). Big Bear Cabin is a mere 1-mile hike to the private community waterfall and is just up the hill from the swimming area and fishing pond by Lake George.

Gateway Mountain is just 10 miles from I-40 and the quiet town of Old Fort. It offers easy access to the city of Asheville (33 miles away) where you'll find the hip & ever-eccentric downtown, River Arts District, and historic Biltmore Village home to the iconic Biltmore Estate. The resort town of Black Mountain is 18.5 miles away offering novelty shops, upscale boutiques, art galleries, regional breweries, and local restaurants.

The small neighboring town of Marion is 20 miles away offering even more options for food, drinks, and entertainment. Big Bear Cabin offers the best of both worlds, promising seclusion and spectacular scenery while still being close enough to neighboring towns to provide endless options for activities and adventures. Ideal for a family vacation or retreat with friends, the aptly named Big Bear Cabin offers a quintessential mountain getaway that's big not only in size and grandeur but also with breathtaking views. This is the perfect place to make memories with those you love!
