Welcome to Bear Lake Reserve
Bear Lake Reserve is the perfect location to spend time with your loved ones and offers the very best of mountain living, with lots of activities for everyone, including golfing, fishing, hiking, and camping. It is a 2,100-acre gated community located near Asheville, NC, and halfway between Cashiers and Sylva, NC. We offer condos, townhomes, cottages, and luxury custom homes. The Bear Lake Reserve resort community offers a clubhouse situated on the shores of Bear Creek Lake.
The clubhouse offers casual and traditional dining experiences, a fitness center, multiple pools, a café, a theater room, and an outdoor activity center. Pristine mountain waters offer unrestricted boating access, great fishing, and one of the least-trafficked mountain lakes in Western North Carolina. A ten-slip private marina and a paddle-boat cove allow members and guests access to motor boats, canoes, and kayaks. A nine-hole, Nicklaus Design executive golf course, practice facility, and disc golf are located at the property’s highest elevation. A growing tennis program and facility are also included among the amenities. Don’t forget about the 17 miles of beautiful hiking trails available to residents! There are certainly plenty of activities to keep every member of the family happy and engaged!
The gated entrance to the Bear Lake Reserve resort community is staffed from 8 a.m. to midnight year-round, providing security and a friendly greeting upon your arrival. The Golden Farm Amphitheater provides a one-of-a-kind outdoor music venue for the annual summer concert series and the perfect vantage point for the yearly Fourth of July celebration and fireworks show. The Mill Pond Pavilion is a common area for Bear Lake residents to enjoy. It includes a full kitchen, indoor and outdoor dining space, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, and two fully stocked trout fishing ponds.
