About this cabin rental
Nestled in The Falls community, Little Bear is a charming, newly-built custom home that serves as the ideal hub for a family retreat in the majestic Smoky Mountains. With close proximity to Bryson City, Cherokee, Nantahala Gorge, Fontana Lake, and a myriad of other attractions, it's the perfect spot for creating cherished memories with your loved ones.
The gated community of The Falls features picturesque paved roads that wind up to breathtaking elevations, boasting incredible vistas. Along the way, you'll encounter two enchanting river rock creeks nestled beneath awe-inspiring waterfalls. While all vehicles are welcome to traverse these paths slowly, motorcyclists are advised to heed caution. Upon arrival, you'll be warmly welcomed by the slumbering Little Bear perched above the front porch. The interior boasts numerous amenities designed to entertain both children and adults. The cozy lower-level recreational room is outfitted with a shuffleboard/bowling table, foosball, and a vintage golf video game perfect for family bonding moments. Outside, delight in the inviting group fire pit area complete with a wood-fired pizza oven – perfect for creating heartwarming memories. Unwind after a day of hiking in the soothing hot tub enveloped by nature.
Entering the main level takes your breath away as expansive windows reveal uninterrupted far-reaching views. Unwind in the welcoming living space featuring a dining table, gas-log fireplace, HD TV, and plush seating perfect for quality family time. The main level also houses a luxurious master bedroom with a king bed and an opulent master bath.
Ascend to find a charmingly decorated loft balcony overlooking the living area below – a perfect nook for reading or a quiet moment. Here you'll discover two twin daybeds for additional sleeping quarters and a quaint work desk if needed. The upper level also offers another generously proportioned king-size bedroom with an adjoining bath.
Fun continues on the basement level where a generous rec room furnished with plush sectional sofa houses an array of entertainment options previously mentioned. Also located here is a third bedroom displaying two twin-over-full bunk beds that can comfortably sleep up to six guests. The nearby expansive bathroom is equipped with charming chalkboard-adorned hooks to effortlessly identify the towels and avoid those family squabbles.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
We loved this cabin! This was the first luxury cabin we’ve stayed in for a mountain vacation and I’m hooked. We had a problem the first time with losing water pressure during showers and the owner sent a maintenance man out the next morning. Communication was great, they responded to texts within a couple of hours or less. We did figure out that you can run the washer or dishwasher during showers, or those two things at the same time. It did not ruin our stay, but it was unexpected. The drive up the mountain was very winding and fairly steep, hit we’ve driven worse to get to our destination before. The view is always worth it! I will be looking for Watershed Cabins to stay in for future trips to the mountains! The management was super!

Such a beautiful house with everything you could possibly need. The well stocked game room in the basement gave us hours of fun! The home is close to attractions and has waterfalls in the neighborhood! Would 100% go back!
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Dec 2024
House was very nice. Kitchen needs to be better equipped. Basement was great for the kids. Lots of room. Outside trash containers not designed to keep critters out. Drive to the house once in the neighborhood was narrow and winding. Not wide enough to pass another vehicle safely. Would not stay again only because of the road in.
