Cozy Bear Lodge on top of Casey's Mountain! - Great Location!!

Welcome to Cozy Bear Lodge where you can relax and enjoy the mountains!

The lodge is located within 20 minutes to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park entrance and conveniently located right off of the Great Smoky Mountain Expressway, which leads to Bryson City, Sylva, Waynesville, and Lake Junaluska! With Cherokee being the next town over, you can enjoy the Native American culture of the arts, stores, restaurants, and Harrah's Casino!

Enjoy the rocking chairs, cook on the grill, or rest in the hot tub on the back deck, or play checkers in the cozy corner of the living room or sit around the electric fireplace and watch a movie! Head down to the lower level and play foosball, ping pong, practice your putting, or play a boardgame!

The lodge has two bedrooms, each with a queen bed, and a private loft with two twin beds. There is a full bathroom on the main level and a half bathroom on the lower level. Also on the lower level is a washer and dryer if you need.

Cozy Bear is the top most property on Casey's Mountain, so enjoy some privacy being surrounded by trees! There is also a winter mountain view to enjoy from the large windows in the living room and dining area!

Due to being close to the expressway and having all the local places easily accessible, you may hear some traffic noises while enjoying the deck. You might also be able to hear the steam train go by on the tracks that run along the Tuckasegee River!

We hope that we can make your stay in the western Carolina mountains as enjoyable as it has been for us!

A few additional items:
-We have a 12 cup drip coffee maker.
-Sheets and towels are provided for your use.

*Please note that 4-wheel drive is needed to get up the mountain during times of snow on the ground.

Top of Casey’s Mtn.
It was the top of the mountain! The location was perfect. My uncle and I fished the local rivers and we had access to miles and miles of fishing within minutes of the cabin. Very clean. Owner was very responsive. The only minor reason for a 4 rating was the hot top jets didn’t work on the high setting. Otherwise the cabin is perfect. Great stay!

Sweet cabin
We had a group of 4 ladies celebrating a birthday. The cabin was perfect for us since everyone had their own bed, comfortable TV seating, and a place in the hot tub! Cabin was decorated very nicely and very clean. We ate all our meals in, but it was close to plenty of restaurants if desired. Very close to Cherokee and the national park, also to Bryson City and Dillsboro. Really enjoyed the deck and the hot tub. Owners provided good directions and instructions. We would definitely return to the Cozy Bear Cabin!

Great Place on Casey Mountain
This is a great property to go to unwind and relax. The home was clean and inviting. Bobby and Jackie communicated very well with us. It is close to Cherokee and Bryson City. We took our grandson to ride on the Polar Express and it was an easy trip to get to Bryson City. My grandson wished he could have played the basketball game that was in the pictures, but it was not there. However, the other games and hot tub made up for that. We would definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

Great Polar Express Weekend
Our original booking had to cancel the day before we were supposed to leave and we were so happy this property was available! It was perfect for our family. Many wonderful amenities and close to all the attractions. The kids had their own spaces and the hot tub was awesome. Would definitely consider staying here again!
