Bear Rock Chalet beautiful, secluded, mountain retreat with breathtaking views
Secluded on three acres at the top of the mountain. Over 2200 sf. of living space. Breathtaking, long-range mountain views from over 3600 ft. can be enjoyed from the two levels of wraparound decks with hot tub and rockers. Two story wall of windows on main level to further enjoy the views. Beautifully decorated with primarily hand crafted solid wood furniture from the local area. Beautiful, newly refinished hardwood floors on main level and brand new laminate (that looks like hardwood) in basement. Wood-burning custom stone fireplace. One bedroom and one bath on each of the three levels. Kitchenette and living area in basement, making the lower level almost like a separate home. (Ideal for two families traveling together or when privacy is needed/wanted.) Billiards table. Free-standing video arcade machine with 60 classic games. Two flat screen TVs with streaming capabilities,Picnic table, fire pit, hammock ,rope swing, and charcoal grill. Lake Nantahala is at the bottom of the road (approximately 3/4 mile from chalet) and we are only about five mins. from the marina where you can rent boats and kayaks and eat in the restaurant. (The marina and restaurant are seasonal.)We are also 5 minutes from Nantahala wedding venue! Close to whitewater rafting on the world famous Nantahala River. Approx. 45 mins. to Murphy and approx. 45 mins. to Franklin. The Bartram Trail is less than five mins. away for you hikers. Horseback riding nearby. Truly a relaxing and memorable getaway. Plenty to do nearby, or plenty to keep you occupied if you don't want to leave the property. Due to our remote location, we do get a cell signal in the chalet ,but weak at times. There is no land line. It is not necessary to have a four wheel drive vehicle .Please put vehicle in low gear and proceed at 10 mph and you will have no problem!...take Rhododendron (starting ascent up mountain and do not use any other directions)to Hemlock and then follow "Bear Rock Chalet" signs! Absolutely no smoking inside the chalet, please. Also guests do not have to be concerned about water shortages(as is fairly common), for we installed a 4,000 gallon filtered water reservoir! ENJOY!

John was a great communicator and helpful! We loved it all- the game room, hot tub, rope swing, kitchen (was there over Thanksgiving), ample beds and bathrooms and towels. To note- be SURE for driving, to take Rhododendron. Host directions said that but I didn’t download prior so trusted GPS. Don’t. Also- phone will go on SOS for about 30 min prior to arrival (coming from Franklin) so be sure to save lock box code and accurate directions. We loved it and enjoyed for our family of 6 over Thanksgiving! Boys ages 12,15,17,19!

Everything about Bear Rock Chalet was excellent! Access to the property, kitchen facilities, Wi-Fi and all amenities were great! The view from the wall of windows and the deck were extraordinary! Would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting this area. Be sure to rent a boat at the Lakes End Marina. We had an afternoon on the lake and it was perfect!

Lovely mountain retreat!
We had a great time visiting family in the Nantahala Lake area. Lots of awesome scenery, water activities and hiking to keep us busy. Our spacious cabin was very clean and nicely decorated, the owners were pleasant and helpful, and the views were to die for! We had everything we needed for a relaxing family vacation.

Tranquil Mountain Getaway
Our family of 5 stayed here for a long weekend with extended family who stayed on Lake Nantahala. The house is beautiful, comfortable, and well-appointed for a relaxing stay. It IS up a very narrow, at times steep road but the view and quiet are so worth it. The wifi is not strong enough for doing telework, but for a vacation it is adequate. Highly recommend for groups. The main bedroom is a loft but has a gorgeous view out of the wall of windows in the living room.

Our weekend at Bear Chalet was the perfect getaway for our family. The house was very clean. The Mountain views were amazing! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and more. We loved exploring the area around the house, including the rope swing! Communication was excellent with the owner.
If we decide to venture back to the Topton area, we will definitely stay at Bear Chalet again. Thanks John!

There is so much room in the cabin to spread out, great for multiple families! Just a few minute drive to a great cafe and boating activities on the water!! Host was great and got back to you quick!

Perfect property for a perfect getaway
Stayed at this property for a long weekend getaway with friends. The property was more than spacious enough to accommodate all of us. John was always available with a quick phone call to answer any questions we may have had. The cabin is perfectly located for day trips to Asheville and the Smoky Mountains, but still secluded enough for some well needed R&R. The lake itself is amazing. If you want to hit the lake for an afternoon of boating or kayaking, the Lake End marina down the street was awesome and staffed by some of the friendliest people I've ever met. Would definitely stay again

A very charming and comfortable mountain home. Ideal for families and a true get away.
Very clean and well appointed. We had everything we needed to be comfortable and to enjoy some quiet time in the mountains. Kids loves the swing, pool table, arcade and board games. Parents loved the deck, the hot tub and the view of the mountains. Directions are accurate just need to follow them and not rely on GPS. Lots do do in the area including boating on the lake, whitewater rafting and a nearby trout farm!
I highy recommend this place and appreciate Johns prompt attention through the process.

Immaculate Property with fabulous views!
This property was by far the cleanest and most comfortable property that we have stayed in. The ride up to the cabin from the main road was a bit scary but we managed it fine. If there was snow it may have been more difficult. John was a great host and answered all of my questions quickly. Loved the house! It was very well stocked with anything that we could have needed. The property was beautiful and the kids enjoyed the game room and the swing outside! Thank you!
