Dancing Bears Cabin | Breathtaking Sunrise Mountain Views!

Recharge with breathtaking views from the back deck of Dancing Bears Cabin, nestled on a tranquil and spacious 6-acre property in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains. Wake up to stunning sunrises over rolling peaks, as this mountainside log cabin reveals a new horizon masterpiece with each season. Located within Gateway Mountain, a 3,000-acre nature preserve and gated community, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath log cabin is perfect for family gatherings, friend reunions, or a romantic getaway.

Spend your evenings roasting s'mores over the fire pit (wood included) under a starlit sky, or cozy up inside by the crackling fireplace. Fire up the charcoal grill for a delicious barbecue and dine al fresco with the mountains as your backdrop. Explore the natural beauty of Gateway Mountain, with two pristine lakes, a trout pond for catch-and-release fishing (no license required), a picturesque waterfall park, hiking trails, picnic areas, and abundant wildlife. Indoors, enjoy games, music, and movies via DVDs and an extensive satellite channel selection. Work remotely with ease using the fast Starlink Wi-Fi and dedicated workstation. The fully-stocked kitchen and local artwork will make you feel right at home.

For nearby adventures, Dancing Bears Cabin is conveniently located close to Gateway Mountain's main entrance, just 10 minutes off I-40. Western North Carolina's top attractions are within easy reach: Black Mountain, Asheville, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are a short 30 to 45-minute drive, while Lake Lure and Chimney Rock are just 30 minutes away.

Experience the unique charm of this custom log cabin, constructed entirely from natural materials, with no sheetrock, paint, or carpet. Your perfect mountain retreat awaits at Dancing Bears Cabin!

Please note: During the colder winter months (from December through March), icy and/or snowy road conditions and delayed snow plow operations are possible within the development. We strongly recommend AWD or 4WD vehicles and travel insurance throughout the year, but especially for those staying in the Gateway Mountain development during the winter months.

No parking is allowed on roadways or at gate entrances. No RVs, boat trailers, camping trailers, or trailers of any kind are permitted in the Gateway Mountain Community. The driveway is steep but paved, and plenty of parking is available at the cabin.
