Enter the main level with just one step from the parking area onto the deck. The spacious living room greets you with a soaring, exposed-beam ceiling and is furnished with an appealing mix of contemporary and mid-century style that combines into effortless mountain chic. Cozy up around the gas fireplace and watch your favorite shows or read a book. Guests who have to bring a little work along with them can set up a laptop on the live-edge workstation by the stairs, as well! 

Prepare delicious meals or quick snack in the fully equipped kitchen featuring modern open-shelve storage, granite counters, and stainless appliances, and enjoy your treats at the 3-seater kitchen bar or around the 6 seats of the kitchen table. 

Time for bed? A great night's sleep is guaranteed in any of the three King bedrooms here! The main level features the primary suite with King bed, TV, corner chair, and ensuite bath with a tiled shower. Upstairs you'll find two more King bedrooms, each with a TV, and between them is a shared second bathroom with tiled shower. 

Step outside and let the mountain breeze refresh your soul. At over 4,000 elevation, everything is cooler up here! The outside of the cabin offers as much as the inside. Enjoy a sectional couch, rockers by the outside fireplace, a suspended daybed swing, a gas grill/smoker combination, smokeless Breeo firepit, and a hot tub under the stars! 

With everything Three Bears Retreat has to offer, you may not want to leave once you arrive! If you do venture out, though, you'll find yourself in the peaceful gated community of Monteagle, just 10 minutes to the heart of downtown Banner Elk, 20 minutes to Beech or Sugar Mountains for year-round outdoor fun, and less than 45 minutes to Tweetsie Railroad, Boone, Appalachian State, and Blowing Rock!
