If you are coming in from Atlanta Airport, or Charlotte from the airport map "Western Carolina University." Once you approach Western Carolina, then map "shook cove road", once you are on shook cove road you map it to Bear Lake. Although it seems like alot of steps, it is all basically one road and it is easily accessible. On Apple Maps it may tell you road blocks but we have completed the drive ourselves all the way from FL.

There is a group flying into Asheville today so we will keep you posted with any information they tell us as well!

Can't wait to see you all!
