We are excited to welcome guests back to Spacious Skies Bear Den as our area continues recovering from the recent storm.
Many of our RV Sites and cabins are now available for reservations, for both long-term and daily stays, and we are working tirelessly to restore the entire campground for visitors.
All access roads to the property are open; however, ongoing utility work may cause lane closures and temporary traffic delays. The Blue Ridge Parkway is also operating with periodic one-lane closures during daytime hours for storm clean-up efforts. For details on Blue Ridge Parkway closures, please visit their official website.
While we’re making great progress, some amenities remain unavailable, including the a few of the hiking trails.
Guests should use caution when exploring the property and avoid areas still undergoing cleanup. Active work continues throughout the property including certain sections of the park that remain closed as of 2/14/2025.
Here’s what’s available now:
✔ The rec hall/arcade, gem mine, basketball court, jumping pillow, and playground
✔ Natural swimming lake
✔ Private fishing lake

Because of some lingering road damage in the area stemming from Hurricane Helene, we suggest guests confirm their travel plans/directions at www.DriveNC.gov which provides current road conditions throughout the region, including alternate route recommendations for through traffic on I-40 and I-26.
The town of Spruce Pine continues its recovery, and we appreciate your patience as local businesses reopen. Walmart, gas stations, and most restaurants are operational, though downtown businesses may remain temporarily closed. If venturing out, please contact the business via phone to confirm hours.
We also encourage you to visit local businesses to help the community rebuild.

We look forward to welcoming you to Spacious Skies Bear Den! If you have any questions before your visit, feel free to contact us or check our website for the latest updates. Safe travels, and we can’t wait to see you soon!
