Don't let the name fool you... there is nothing 'bare' about this well appointed chalet! While it is true that black bears once roamed free all over the area in years past, the only bears you are likely to  encounter are those that serve as the primary theme of the chalet's decor.

Located on Birchwood lane on beautiful Beech Mountain, North Carolina, our 4 bedroom chalet is new to rental, newly decorated and owner managed for that personal touch.
