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.
