Enjoy the sounds of the rushing water or amazing views from the 3-level deck. Take long walks down the dirt road looping through an enchanted pine forest and visit the horses grazing in the pasture. Spend your time relaxing and exploring the summer camp like vibe on property or visit many of the surrounding attractions. There is so much to do. We are minutes away from Scaly Mountain Outdoor Center and Highlands Aerial Park. Minutes from Highlands! Wild and scenic. Location, location, location! Amazing location for all the Highlands Plateau has to offer!!! Convenient to Sky Valley, Clayton, Dillard, Franklin, and Highlands. Easy access from 106/Dillard Road. We'd love to have you at Bear Gone Fishing for your next mountain getaway!

Perfect Getaway
It was a great place for our large family. The large room gave us all a place to gather, then have our own private time as well. The river was a plus,plenty of outside space and private.I will say if stairs are a factor there is a lot here,but The place was very clean well stocked and the host was right there to answer any question that came up. She was so kind and helpful, We plan to re-book again.. This was a wonderful cabin.

A hidden gem
We stayed at Bear Gone Fishing for a short visit to the area and could not have been more pleased. The location is terrific. The home sits right on a stream. We were fortunate to be visiting when the fall leaves were at their peak. The home is very clean, has lots of amenities and is very comfortable. We are keeping Bear Gone Fishing on our Favorites list and will return. Can't recommend this place enough.

Bear Gone Fishing Fall 2023
We enjoyed our family fall vacation at Bear Gone Fishing. We cooked together, ate together, piled on the couch and watched MNF one night and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny another night, explored the stream, and relaxed on the decks in the crisp fall air. Additionally, we read through your history books on Franklin, Highlands, and Cashiers and learned fascinating information about the area. The leaves were just beginning to turn beautiful hues of yellow, red, and orange. We enjoyed driving through the mountains and taking in the amazing views and beautiful scenery. We visited several waterfalls, including Whitewater Falls and Bridal Veil Falls. We explored Gorges State Park and Black Rock State Park. We loved the time we spent here and made many memories!

A Magical Mountain Escape
We rented this cabin for 8 nights in August to escape the sweltering Charleston heat. We were so charmed by the property with its enchanting trails and sound of the creek. The kids (aged 7, 10, and 13) loved exploring the creek and swimming/tubing in the swimming hole. It's so private as there are no real neighbors so it felt like having our own private creek. It was just a quick 15 minute drive into Highlands and only about 10 minutes to Dillard, GA. The (large) sauna was a fun surprise for my Canadian husband who was in heaven with the sauna and a cold creek to run into afterwards! We loved being able to bring our two dogs along and the property was very pet friendly. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept great with the sound of the creek. My husband and I both work remote and worked for most of our stay. I was concerned the internet would not be sufficient as it sometimes isn't with these types of rentals, but it was more than enough for us both to work and take calls while the kids used their iPads or watched tv. No dropped calls to report! The kitchens were well stocked and the temperature was cool and consistent throughout. The fire pit was in a great location and there were even cafe lights (my favorite) for an extra special touch by the fire. We will definitely rent this property again!

Beautiful home on Scaly Mountain!
Our family had a wonderful time at this home on Scaly Mountain! The kids LOVED playing in the creek, and the sound of the waterfall was so peaceful. We enjoyed the nearby hiking trails (several within 5 min drive), and the seniors in our party liked relaxing on the porches and walking the country roads (goats, cow and fields just down the road!). S’mores were a hit with everyone! Host was very friendly and responded quickly to questions. Highly recommend. We’ll be back!

Great property
Three families rented this beautiful property for Labor Day weekend. Great location for rafting, zip line, Highlands, etc. We had six adults and four kids and we had a blast. The creek behind the house is spectacular. Highly recommend it.
