This is an awesome cabin getaway! The location is minutes from multiple downtown areas, the cabin is clean and in great condition, and sitting on the porch listening to the river made for the most relaxing vacation. Highly recommend this place!

Little paradise

This was our second time staying, we rented a smaller cabin on the same strip the first time. We were hoping to rent the same cabin again, but it was fully booked so we got the larger cabin. We were only 3 so it gave us some extra space. It was wonderful to be on the river, since my boy enjoy fly fishing. It’s close to town, so lots of little stores and restaurants to explore. Very responsive host, easy check in and out!

Great tiny cabin!

It was perfect for our family of 4! We put the kids upstairs and used the bunk area for their luggage. We spent most of our time exploring the area, but really enjoyed the deck space when at the cabin.

Relaxing weekend getaway

Tiny Bearadise is exactly as advertised. We stayed over two nights while visiting our son at Western Carolina, and found it very convenient to Dillsboro, Sylva, and the WCU campus. If you like a more scenic ride, I'd highly recommend driving River Road from Dillsboro to Cullowhee. The accommodations were clean, and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for several meals. We absolutely LOVED our stay here. Unlike a prior reviewer, I had absolutely no problem taking the trash 20 yards to the centrally located trash cans. Sitting on the deck listening to the Tuckaseegee roll by was incredibly relaxing, as was hanging out by the firepit with a small fire. It does sleep 8, but you'd want to be very close friends. The loft area would be great for a child or two at least 8 years old. If you're into outdoor sports, enjoy being away from the crowd, and don't mind a smaller space, then definitely come to Bearadise. If I'd had a kayak with me, I would have dropped it into the water right from the cabin. If you're more of a Hilton Honors traveler, look elsewhere.

Peaceful and cozy

We absolutely loved the deck overlooking the river! The tiny house made great use of the space. The loft was roomy, and the master bedroom was spacious with lots of storage. Nice quiet location. Oh, and The Fugitive train/bus site was across the rivier.

Great place to relax!!

Our family of 4 enjoyed our week in this cabin. It had plenty of space for us and we loved the deck right on the water. The cabin was very clean and well stocked with bath towels, bed linens and blankets. The kitchen had plenty of plates and cups along with a set of pots, coffee maker, microwave and stove. The only things I would make note of is if you are over 6 feet tall you may have to squat to fit in the shower. This cabin is 1 of 4 along the river and then there is an RV park. The cabins are very close so when the neighbors are up at 6AM enjoying breakfast on their deck you can definitely hear them while trying to sleep in the main bedroom. Luckily we were their by ourselves until the last day. Would definitely rent again!!!

We had such a great time at Little Bearadise that we are already planning to come again! This location can't be beat, and we LOVED the deck overlooking the Tuckaseegee River. (We rafted the Tuck twice -- passing right in front of this cabin!) Highly recommend for a fun family getaway!

Small cabin - Huge fun

It is just as described- small but doesn’t feel cramped and very well maintained. It’s right on the river just as described and the moment we arrived my boys were in the water. Stunning deck views. You definitely have neighbors as there are lot of rvs and permanent mobile homes. The entire site is immaculately maintained, quiet and neighbors were welcoming. We will stay here again without hesitation.
