Spectacular place to stay

This was the perfect getaway for our family! The view from the porch is incredible and the outdoor fireplace was a wonderful place to gather in the evening. The house was beautiful and very clean and the location was perfect for enjoying the lake and going into town. Lots of amazing hikes nearby as well! We hope to come back again soon.

Can't beat waking up to that view

House and property were beautiful but nothing surpassed the view of the lake and mountains. Only wish there was a high top table and chairs on the deck so we could just soak in the view while having cocktails. Roads are twisty so just be warned you can't over indulge and drive home. We would definitely consider returning again, possibly with fall colors.

We throughly enjoyed the Black Bear Den. Beautiful scenery, well maintained property and the owner, Jill, couldn’t have been more helpful. Short distance to both Highlands and Cashiers. We have already recommended this property to one of our friends.

Luxury Fall Foliage

Three couples met up for a Fall relaxation. We like to cook together and sit into the night with a fire in the fireplace solving the world’s problems. This is the perfect place. Convenient to Cashiers, Highlands and lots of great waterfall hikes.

Great Views

The cabin was comfortable, clean, and exactly as advertised. The view was phenomenal and the deck and covered fireplace were beautiful. There was a strong mothball smell, assuming they were in the crawlspace and understand the purpose of having them, so it was fine.

Beautiful cabin with beautiful view

The cabin and view were just as described - gorgeous cabin and beautiful views! Having 3 king bedrooms each with their own bathroom was great - everyone had their own space but could also come together in the living and dining rooms. We spent a lot of time at the large table playing cards and enjoying the view. Laurie was extremely responsive on any questions we had.

Wonderful Home with Exceptional View

We were delighted with Black Bear Den. We are frequent visitors to the Cashiers area and felt this home was one of the best experiences . The home is well provisioned, clean, within a beautiful neighborhood and offers amazing mountain & lake views. The owners were extremely helpful. The outdoor fireplace and deck offers an amazing relaxing space.

New Years Eve stay

Property is very, very nice and the views are wonderful. Having all bedrooms with king size beds and their own bathrooms is a definite plus for our family. The only minor improvement would be on the cleaning crew. There were no trash bags other than one in the can and there was no dishwasher soap so we bought some ourselves.

I ultimately chose this property based on the great reviews and the property was just as advertised. The house is lovely as is the neighborhood and the views overlooking Lake Glenville with the mountains in the background are exceptional. The owners were very accommodating and responsive. We definitely will be revisiting this gem in the near future.

Beautiful Leaf Weekend

Beautiful, spacious and comfortable property with excellent views of Lake Glenville. It is a little more remote but we were looking for the quiet side of things so it was perfect. Owner was very responsive. Word of advice if it is the season for a fireplace to purchase firewood at Ingles in Cashiers or the Lawn and Garden store on the way in to avoid a $150-250 fine for using any of the owners wood. Also there is a $150 fine if the stove is not perfectly clean at checkout. Lastly there is a list of checkout chores that must be done before the 10 AM checkout such as stripping the bedsheets and starting the load in the washer etc. despite a housekeeping fee. Overall a perfect retreat in the mountains in a quiet neighborhood overlooking the lake.

Amazing Log Cabin

This was a beautiful log cabin with amazing views of Lake Glenville and the mountains. I loved the privacy and peacefulness of the property. The location was also very convenient, only 15 minutes to Cashiers where we bought groceries at Ingles and 30 minutes to Main Street Highlands where we enjoyed dining and shopping . I took my children hiking at High Falls Trails, which was only 17 minutes away. When we were all warn out, we enjoyed our time back at the cabin continuously enjoying the beautiful view from the living room and deck, while grilling on the outdoor grill. This cabin had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked; there were games, warm, cozy blankets, comfortable beds, and soft bath towels. As an added bonus, the owners,Laurie and Bruce, were great. They were easy to reach, and responded to questions promptly. I would definitely recommend this property. It will not disappoint.
