We enjoyed our visit, but we will look somewhere else when we return to the area.

The space was great, but it needs to be tended to and cleaned more thoroughly - lots of dead bugs, Asian beetles crawling all over, dog poop on the deck (we did not bring a dog), a shower didn’t drain…just needs more attention.We contacted the owner about the cold water in the kitchen not working when we arrived and were told he’d as the maintenance person to fix it. As we were leaving I told him the cold water was not fixed to which he replied, “He must have been busy and forgot.”Space was great, but the house needs some love and needs to be cleaned more thoroughly.

Great Place for a Getaway!

We had a tremendous experience at this place. We saw bears daily in our driveway and on the mountain! The pool table and game room were wonderful for a party atmosphere, the upper deck offered a beautiful view of the Great Smokey Mountains, and the lower deck featured a jacuzzi that was perfect. The appliances were top notch, the beds comfortable, and the Black Bear decorating theme was spot on. We will stay there again!

Cozy and comfy with all the right spaces for our party. The main floor master suite worked great for my 84 year old mother, and the downstairs bedrooms and walk in shower worked well for the other two in our party. Decorated with cute bears throughout and lots of games for the family. The occasional bear sightings in the neighborhood were thrilling! And the owners have a FAC book for visitors that was very informative. Plus, they respond quickly to direct communications. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay!

Perfect Family Retreat

The location was perfect. Peaceful and quiet, however, the road to get to the house was definitely a challenge (well worth it though). Our main entertainment was numerous bear sightings, which never grew old. The house was perfect for us and our 3 adult kids. Lots of wonderful family memories were made playing cards, watching movies, shooting pool, cooking and eating meals together. The Owner was always very responsive. I would stay here again.

Wonderful trip!

We greatly enjoyed our week in this cabin. We had lots of room to spread out with our family of 8. The teens enjoyed the rec room and downstairs deck while the adults hung out on the upper level. We saw beats every day that we were there. When we arrived, there was a baby bear asleep in the tree right in front of our deck! It was so much fun to watch him! He visited the tree 3 times during our stay. My daughter had never seen bears outside the zoo, so she was thrilled! Thank you Tom for an amazing week!

This property was perfect. Exactly as advertised and Tom was great to work with. This home had amble space and provided lots of room to spread out relax and enjoy the views. We even had a few visits from the neighborhood bears in the evenings. The beds were comfortable, plenty of towels and linens, dishes, and my wife even fell in love with the new washer and dryer there. The grandkids enjoyed the hot tub and we played several games of pool and air hockey. We will definitely be back!

Hard to visualize the setting of this property from photos - all the listing photos are very accurate of the home and amenities. The location - although some might think challenging to reach, renders the most incredible views. Perched high above the town of Gatlinburg - great vistas of the mountains and the lights of Gatlinburg below at night. Yet still very close to town and all the sights!
