OVERVIEW

Lake Junaluska Cottage w/ Kayaks, Fire Pit & Screened Porch

Bearcat Cottage

Welcome to Bearcat Cottage, a fully stocked retreat nestled in the trees of Lake Junaluska, just minutes from the lake, pool, tennis courts, and scenic walking trails. Designed for comfort and ease, every detail is thoughtfully prepared for a relaxing getaway.

The updated kitchen features a 5-burner gas cooktop, built-in oven, dishwasher, and is fully stocked with coffee makers, small appliances, cookware, kid-friendly dishware, outdoor dining essentials, spices, coffee, tea, cocoa, paper goods, and cleaning supplies—everything you need from day one.

The cozy living room blends charm and comfort, featuring an antique hutch with Roku TV and sound bar for streaming, games, an Echo Dot, and a Bluetooth-enabled Victrola record player
for your favorite tunes or a nostalgic classic. A large leather sofa with plush throws surrounds a coffee table perfect for family game night. Or unwind in the rocking chair by the stone fireplace with a glass of wine and a good book—it’s the perfect place to relax after a day exploring the mountains.

Two inviting bedrooms offer ceiling fans, luggage racks, and sound machines to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep. The twin room is perfect for kids, complete with toys, books, and a TV. The primary suite includes a private ensuite bath and washer/dryer with complimentary supplies provided. Both bathrooms feature toiletries, robes, slippers, hair dryers, heater/fan exhaust, and bath linens.

Outside, enjoy an outdoor dining area, fire pit with marshmallow roasters and color flames to entertain the kids under the stars. Plus, at no additional cost two kayaks for summer lake adventures (guest transport required), pool floats, coolers, and a wagon making all your summer outings easy and convenient.

While the cottage is in the heart of Lake Junaluska, this cozy mountain retreat is ideally located to all the top Western North Carolina attractions including the Blue Ridge Parkway, Smoky
Mountain National Park, Maggie Valley, Cataloochee Ski Resort, and the Biltmore Estate making it the perfect base for your Western Carolina adventure. Book your stay today and experience the charm of this lovely cottage!
