I am an avid adventurer having travelled all my life and spent an entire year backpacking around the globe to some of the most remote spots in the world. I spend my time at the Retreat hiking and camping with my children, and teaching them to enjoy the adventures of the outdoors. I greatly enjoy the seclusion of the Retreat yet still being in close proximity to town and the national park, and the Native-American culture of the the area that makes it special.

Three Little Bears Retreat situated on 40+ acres bordering the Great Smoky Mountain National park in Bryson City, NC. The area of Bryson City has the best to offer for those wanting to visit the Smokies such as hiking, fly fishing, mountain biking, white water rafting, horse back riding, tubing, and more! The beautiful thing about Bryson is that everything seems to be a little better, nicer and less crowded than the Tennessee side of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, while our cabins and property are fabulous, the best part to us is that the house sits just outside the entrance to the "Road to Nowhere" entrance to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and is an easy 5 minute drive into downtown, Deep Creek, the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and many other fun activities. Vacations should be relaxing and fun and not spent commuting everywhere, and we feel our location for exploring the Smoky Mountains is perfect. On the Retreat, we have three large cabins, one small cabin, and a Glamping Airstream, mountain streams, Lands Creek at the bottom, long range views at the top, and several hundred feet directly bordering the National Park!

Bryson City is an almost perfect, Hallmark post card sort of mountain town nestled up next to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Our property borders the wilderness of the park yet is only 3 miles from downtown on an easy road that is accessible year round. The entrance to the national park is less than a mile.
