4428834 MLS ⋅ Bear Creek Lake BLDG.
Discover a unique opportunity to create a destination-oriented, boutique lodging or recreational concept on a 2.35-acre lot directly adjacent a public boat ramp in an extraordinary mountain-lake setting! Bear Lake is a pristine 476-acre mountain reservoir on the Tuckasegee River with depths reaching 190 feet at roughly 2,600’ elevation! The Lake combines the natural beauty of Blue Ridge Mountain peaks, forested slopes and cascading waterfalls with a broad range of outdoor recreation including motorboating, pontooning, kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, water skiing and fishing. Notably distinctive is Sols Creek Falls, where boaters can navigate to the base of the dramatic 120’ waterfall and, for the fishing enthusiast, the Lake supports populations of bass, trout, sunfish and a southernmost U.S. location where walleye fishing is available. Immediately across the boat landing along the lake's southern shoreline is Bear Lake Reserve, a privately owned 2,100-acre gated, master-planned luxury residential golfing and vacation-rental community creating a substantial surrounding residential and vacation environment. This property provides the perfect opportunity to complement that market with a small-scale destination serving lake residents, vacation guests, outdoor enthusiasts and visitors exploring the Cashiers–Sylva–WNC mountain corridor. Opportunities to acquire development land in such an extraordinary mountain-lake setting are exceptionally rare! Add the surrounding luxury and vacation-rental market, outdoor recreation, dramatic scenery and proximity to Cashiers, Sylva and WCU campus and this 2.35-acre property presents an intriguing platform for a distinctive destination concept under a development philosophy not intended to maximize the amount of construction but rather, to maximize the experience!

Improved price! Exceptional river frontage property offering in the mountains of western North Carolina! This level 1.67 acre parcel with a cabin overlooking the river features 400 feet of frontage on the beautiful Tuckaseegee River, popularly referred to as "The Tuck". Featured as a primary river for rainbow trout dry fly fishing, the Tuck is a year round outdoor recreation destination. Ideally positioned in Dillsboro area on North River Road (NCSR 1359) and just off US23/441, the primary north/south roading leading from Atlanta to Cherokee, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Asheville area. Dillsboro is the intersection of 23/441 and US 74, the Great Smoky Mountains Expressway, and thousands of cars pass through the area every day. The property's location combines easy accessibility with privacy in a scenic setting along the river but features water and sewer served by the Tuckaseigee Water and Sewer with four (4) taps in place. The parcel's flat topography, expansive river frontage and generous road frontage creates a compelling canvas for a boutique lodge, riverfront restaurant or brewery, curated short-term rental concept or private estate. The choices are unlimited. While the property adjoins both of the towns of Dillsboro and Sylva, there is no zoning, allowing a broad range of residential, hospitality or commercial uses. Present uses of the property include a park model rental which has produced a substantial income in a modified short term rental (3 months and longer). The owners have a two bedroom, two bath cabin overlooking the river and features a covered porch with hot tub overlooking the river. The river frontage area has been terraced down to the river and is included in the flood plain but the great majority of the property is high enough not to be in the food plain. Hurricane Helene's heavy rains brought the water level up and into the terraced areas but did not encroach onto the level parts of the parcel. Opportunies offering this combination of infrastructure, road and river frontage, location and flexibility along the Tuckaseegee River are rare and this presents both a lifestyle asset and a compelling long-term investment.
