A chaos-free Black Friday shopping experience.

We’re bringing together local artisans and vendors to create a relaxed and inviting marketplace at Bear Lake Reserve’s Lake Club. Browse a curated selection of handcrafted goods, from pottery to locally sourced products, all reflecting our community’s rich culture and creativity. This is the perfect opportunity to find unique, quality gifts while supporting local businesses in a peaceful, lakeside setting.

All are Welcome!

While Bear Lake Reserve is typically a private, gated community, Black Friday with the Bears will be open to the public.

This event will take place at our Lake Club (412 Lake Forest Drive) in Tuckasegee, North Carolina, about 30-40 minutes from downtown Sylva. Vendors will be positioned both inside the Lake Club and outside, overlooking the picturesque Bear Creek Lake. We welcome all local residents and visitors to choose us as their Black Friday destination.

In addition to our market of local vendors, we’ll be offering:

  • Free Captained Tours of Bear Creek Lake (Weather Permitting)
  • 10% Off Dining 
  • Live Music: Jen Alvarado
