Welcome to Bear Lake Reserve, a remarkable resort offering lakefront and mountain home sites to own or rent in North Carolina. Bear Lake Reserve’s 2,100 acres have been masterfully planned to create a Western North Carolina vacation home community where you and your family can connect with the natural environment, and also re-connect with one another. We have the most amenities of any resort offering lake property in North Carolina and in fact believe we have it all; lake, mountains, golf, tennis, pools, clubhouse, amphitheater, stunning cuisine, and more. Bear Lake Reserve lies along a crystal clear lake, amid the Blue Ridge Mountains, in an area of uncompromised beauty. Here, roads gently roll through the mountainside and along miles of North Carolina Lakefront Property, where small residential clusters of custom mountain homes, Craftsman-style cottages and New Mountain Lodges are tucked thoughtfully into their surroundings. There is a true sense of community here; where the pure joys of North Carolina lake and mountain living can be experienced year-round with family, friends and neighbors who share a similar dream of a life redefined.
