Bear Necessities by Colonial Properties

Bear Necessities, a stylish two-bedroom condo for families or groups of friends, located just minutes from the main parkway in Pigeon Forge, offers a stunning location with breathtaking mountain views for an unforgettable vacation experience.

Living Room

You’ll love the open-layout living space with its huge windows, amazing views, comfy seating, and a flat-screen TV. Start a fire in the stone fireplace, and curl up with a warm cup of cocoa, or have a movie marathon. This space will relax you, inspire you, and entertain you!

Kitchen

This fully stocked kitchen is such a cheerful space to be, you’ll catch yourself finding excuses to be in it! Whip up your son’s favorite pudding, or your daughter’s favorite brownies. Whatever you need, this kitchen has it—cookery, flatware, and dishes.

For your convenience, all cutlery, cookware, and dishes are provided.

Dining Space

Nearby, you’ll find the round oak table that can seat four. Deal up a game of Texas Hold ‘Em or play a rousing game of charades... this dining room space is multi-functional! If more seating is necessary, there are two additional seats at the breakfast bar.

Bedrooms

Both bedrooms here at Bear Necessities feature an abundance of natural light, making each space airy and bright. The beds are comfy, there are flat-screen TVs for your entertainment, and we’re not bragging, but we think you’ll have the best night’s sleep you’ve had in a long time here.

Throw open those windows and breathe in that fresh mountain air! There’s nothing like it!

Outdoor Spaces

The view here at Bear Necessities will leave you feeling reconnected with nature, and fully rejuvenated. We feel confident that you’ll return year after year.

Don’t forget your swimsuit and sunscreen! In warmer months, you’ll want to take a dip in the resort pool!

Other Amenities

With all the luxury that Bear Necessities has to offer, you might not ever want to leave the cottage. But if you do, you are within minutes of any convenience that Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg has to offer, from charming local eateries to grocery shopping, to entertainment.

All linens are provided, and there is a washer/dryer for your convenience.

Bear Necessities offers complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi access so you can browse your entertainment options or check your email.

Great property as advertised

Great property in a convenient yet quiet location. Perfect for relaxing after a day full of site seeing and fun. This listing was exactly as advertised. My only issue was this first floor unit still required going down/up stairs which a family member couldn’t handle. Fortunately we were able to park at the end of the unit and avoid the stairs. Will definitely stay here again if/when we go back to TN.

Bear Necessities Great Place for a break

Great Condo for our family of 4. Perfect size and accommodations. Close to all of our planned event and view of the smokey mountains each morning was amazing. Even though it was cold we sat outside drinking our morning coffee looking up at the wonderful mountains. All the basic necessities were in the house upon our arrival and while the kitchen utensils were a bit sparce they were perfect for us to make our morning meals before heading out to our daily activities. We usually would arrive back at the condo in the evening and relax in the living space that had a blend of a nice large couch and rocking recliner chair. Would recommend for a family size of up to 4 people who need a nice base camp in Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area that allows you to quickly go to all of the wonderful activites in this area.

50 year friendship anniversary

Condo was great! Neighborhood quiet. Did not realized when booked that you had to go down a stairs to get to the door. A little challenging as the two menfolk have trouble walking. Except for the door for the washer and dryer coming out of the track in my hand it was a very nice place to stay. Well decorated and set up for guests.

Bear Necessities was the perfect family retreat!

The home looks just as pictured and you can tell the owners take great pride in their home, it was cutely decorated for the fall season. Everything you could possibly need in the condo and tucked away from hustle and bustle but close enough to all area attractions in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg! Kids also enjoyed the tic tac toe board and the pool during some down time. Great place and highly recommend.
