For your security, a camera is located on the exterior of the front door and is only accessed if a problem occurs.
Welcome to Sitting Bear Cottage, a cozy retreat nestled among thick rhododendrons on the edge of the magnificent Linville Gorge Wilderness Area. Inspired by travels to the French Alps, our cabin features warm wood touches and a rustic design that invites you to relax and unwind.
The heart of the home is the great common space, where the kitchen, living room, and sunroom flow together seamlessly. Settle into the comfortable leather furniture by the wood-burning stone fireplace, or enjoy the forest views through panoramic windows. The bright sunroom opens onto a spacious new deck, perfect for your morning coffee.
The cottage comfortably sleeps your group with four distinct sleeping areas:
* Master Bedroom: King bed with a private deck

Step outside to experience the true magic of the mountains. Soak your cares away in the covered hot tub, or gather with friends and family around the fire pit under an unobstructed night sky.
* Hot Tub: Our hot tub is professionally serviced weekly. On rare occasions, it may require service between visits. If this occurs, our local technician can typically address it within 24 hours. For this reason, we cannot guarantee its availability for every moment of your stay.
* Laundry: A washer and dryer set is available for your use in the home.
* Check-in/Checkout: Due to the extensive cleaning process our team adheres to, we are unable to accommodate requests for early check-in or late checkout. This ensures the cottage is perfectly prepared for your arrival.

Summary: This house was an excellent basecamp for a group of friends looking to explore the Linville Gorge area over a few days. The house is very cute & located in a beautiful neighborhood just a couple miles from many of the trails in Linville Gorge. Everything was clean & well ordered and the check-in/check-out process was straightforward. Highly recommend!
