Rustic, One Bedroom, Cabin, Hot Tub, Creek Access, Firepit.

Franklin, NC- We are open for business after Hurricane Helene, didn't sustain any damage, and accepting reservations! Beautiful cabin listing- Come and enjoy trout fishing on 1000 feet of our private, stocked, creek. The "Bear's Den" is a one bedroom, rustic, unique, and cozy cabin, located in the Great Smokey Mountains of North Carolina. It is the perfect getaway for couples looking to escape city life, and unwind. The inside is rustic, with barn wood accents. The creek, is a short walk from the cabin.

Lovely little cabin by the creek.
The place was lovely and spotless. Had everything we needed. Even a stepstool. As someone who is under 5 feet tall i really appreciate when a rental has a step stool. (I actually travel with my own). Beds and shelves have gotten taller comfy bed without a stepstool.

Weekend away at the bears den
My husband and I had a very relaxing stay at the bears den. Everything was clean and very cozy! Loved the hot tub! It wasn’t quite as isolated as it seemed in the pictures but it was still very nice!

Lovely place, beautiful setting, and wonderful hosts
I have over 3M+ air miles from my business and personal travel all over the world for the last 40+ years. Have experienced the highs/lows of resort, hotel, and residential accommodations (like VRBO) in many wonderful places. But...we found a slice of heaven at the Bear's Den that I am almost afraid to share with others. Gina and Brian are excellent hosts. Their place was immaculate, well appointed, nicely designed for a couple of any age, and the location is breathtaking. Franklin is a short distance away and we visited Highlands within an hour. And if you promise not tell anyone; if you head east on the road that the property sits on, you may experience some of the most fabulous scenery my wife and I have ever seen. Well done, Gina & Brian, well done.

AMAZING!
This cabin was AMAZING! My husband and I loved every detail of it. It has beautiful craftsmanship, well thought-out needs for the traveler, and was in a perfect location for all the outdoor adventures we pursued. The creek provides soothing and relaxing sounds after a long day of outdoor activities. Autumn was just about to fully show-out in this area and we were so glad we got to experience it here. Y’all have a very special place here and we hope to visit again! (P.S. who knew the heater in the bathroom would be such a great touch?! Me!! 😊)

Comfortable, Quiet and Clean
The place was very nice and private. The shower is absolutely amazing, with dual water heads and perfect for a couple to use simultaneously. The hot tub was great too. Although a few of the jets have stopped working, it has so many in it that it didn't matter for two people. Considering how nice the inside of the cabin is, we were perplexed as to why the bed was only a full size instead of a queen or king - there certainly is plenty of space to accomodate a king size bed. If the bed was upgraded to a queen size and the couch was replaced with a fold-out model, it would be absolutely perfect for accomodating a couple with children. Also, I've never stayed someplace where I had to take off my own garbage. Nevertheless, we were very pleased with the accommodations overall and would gladly stay there again.

The perfect getaway
We loved everything about this property and location. The cabin was super cute and cozy. The location was convenient and an easy access to town and exploring. The creek really created an incredible ambiance between the view and just the sound of the babbling water. Regina and Brian were very accommodating and friendly. We are absolutely planning on going back. Next time we will take the whole family and rent the other beautiful cabins as well. This is our new “go to” for this area!

Wonderful! Gps took us the long way around over the mountain down "snake pass"...it was so windy, curvy like I've never seen before. Took us to Wayah Ridge because 3444 doesnt come up...so be careful with following gps. Internet was splotchy but we were there for the ambience. Loved it. Thank you and we will come again!

We enjoyed our stay at this location. The property was very modern and functional. This is a great base location for the Franklin area as it is close to town but you still get the away from it all feel with the property in a nice quiet area. Another plus was the proximity to the Wayah Bald Tower which offers amazing views.

The Bear's Den is even more beautiful and comfy than pictures show. It was peaceful and just what my husband and I needed on a get away trip! There is plenty of nearby hiking, history, great food, and activities. Not to mention just a hop away from Bryson City and the Nantahala River.
