Large Family Black Bear Hideaway Review
Our group recently stayed at this cabin in the Smoky Mountains and overall had a good time, though there were definitely some areas for improvement.Pros:The cabin itself is spacious and well-laid out, making it ideal for a large party or family gathering. The surrounding community is beautiful and peaceful, with plenty of amenities including nature trails, a playground, and both indoor and outdoor pools — a great setting for outdoor enthusiasts and families with kids.Cons:Unfortunately, the cabin was not clean upon arrival, which was disappointing. However, to the host’s credit, they were very responsive and quickly sent out a cleaning service to address the issue. We also experienced an unpleasant sewage smell and drainage problems in the bathrooms during our stay.The mattresses were extremely uncomfortable, making restful sleep difficult, and the newly built bunk beds had nails protruding, which was a safety concern. Additionally, the outdoor areas were not well maintained — the paths around the property were uneven and potentially hazardous, especially for small children and older adults.Lastly, the grill provided was not functional. We ended up purchasing a charcoal grill ourselves and left it behind for future guests to enjoy.Final Thoughts:This property has a lot of potential. Overall we made lasting memories on subpar sleep. My main point of feedback for the host would be to invest in comfortable mattresses and a plumber.

Wonderful Time!!
What a wonderful and beautiful home! Everything was lovely and clean, kitchen well stocked. Loved the fact there was a griddle and a crockpot. The accessories for young children (high chair, pac and play) were just a welcome addition. The hosts supplied us with plenty of beginning paper towels, toilet paper etc. The area was quiet and peaceful. Not to far away from activities yet we felt secluded. Enjoyed sitting on the porch swing! Swimming pool was a good size and even included some toys for the kids. The game room was enjoyable, plenty to do!! Overall a great place to spend our vacation.

Amazing experience and very pleased with our stay!
Our stay at Charlotte’s cabin was truly exceptional and exceeded all of our expectations! Nestled in the breathtaking Great Smoky Mountains, the cabin offered the perfect mix of rustic charm and modern luxury. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning views and the warm, inviting atmosphere that made us feel instantly at home.The cabin itself was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with every amenity we could possibly need for a relaxing getaway. From the cozy living spaces to the well-equipped kitchen, every detail was carefully considered to enhance our experience. The location was fantastic, offering both tranquility and convenience, with plenty to enjoy right in the cabin itself—there’s so much to do without ever needing to leave! It was clear that Charlotte recently upgraded the furniture, as many bedrooms featured brand-new bed frames, and the living room boasted a gorgeous new sofa and chairs. The kitchen appliances also appeared to be newly updated, which added to the overall sense of comfort and quality. Charlotte was an absolute pleasure to communicate with throughout the entire process. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of perfect. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous home with us and creating such a memorable experience. Everything about your home was warm and inviting! It’s more than we could ask for! Amazing experience and very

Family Christmas vacation
Overall stay was nice. Location was great but I’m not sure I’d book this stay again just based on a combination of things. We booked for the amenities of the home as we planned to stay much of time together here vs going to town. House wasn’t cleaned appropriately.A lot of items were broken. Hot tub jets don’t work, was dirty even though they state it’s cleaned between stays, it is rather small for the number of guests the home accommodates ( 2adults max). Pool was not up to temperature and way below the skimmer and given the house rules the temperature not adjustable. Pool company came about 4 days into our stay and verified pool wasnt up to temp and filled pool so we weren’t able to use pool still because it was cold from the fill. Some home theater seats broke and don’t recline any longer.Basic cleaning was bedding and towels. Can tell if the towel or bed isn’t used, they don’t clean them between stays. We had trashes and countertops not touched before we arrived. This home needs a good deep clean. Again, overall, this home just needs some better cleaning and upkeep between stays and would be worth the price.

Dreamy mountain getaway
My whole family went to have an old fashioned thanksgiving together in the mountains. Charlotte was fantastic at communicating with us the whole time! They are very thoughtful from not only accommodating for the adults but for the kids as well from different age range toys, books, plates, cups & utensils . They also had things prepared for our dog like bowls and a bed. This place is so gorgeous and would stay again! The rooms are much bigger in person. The house is so cozy and perfect for that family mountain getaway. One tip I can give you is please confirm your code and WiFi code before arrival, screenshot it just incase you have an issue getting in you can log in to your app to reach out to the property owners.

This cabin is amazing for families. It was very clean and the decor was beautiful without having knick knacks all around to worry about kids breaking. The basement has a door and the stair to the 2nd floor have a retractable baby gate so no fear of littles falling. There was a high chair, walker, and playpen available for use. The laundry room had everything you could have needed. It was great to have everything available. This is the 5th cabin we have stayed in and sometimes it's the little attention to detail that means the most. Simple things like having a broom available for use can make the difference between frustration and vacation. The host was great and easy to reach if there was any issue.

Incredible week in the Smokies!
This house was absolutely perfect for our needs! We are an older couple (in our sixties) trying to pull together our three sons , nephew, and their significant others (35-40 year olds) that are spread around the country ( Texas, Massachusetts, Tennessee and Florida). The environment was perfect for us! The giant open living area on the main floor is where we gathered every evening, to share dinner, our experiences for the day; reconnect, and rediscover our family bonds. Between the large private bedrooms, activity game room on the first level, and the hot tub, who can ask for anything more!

Great cabin!
This house has everything and is particularly good for children! Hot tub, indoor pool and lots of games (pool table, air hockey, arcade video games and more.) Our 7 grandchildren never got bored during our 5 day stay. The home theater was a huge hit with the kids and adults as well.
The property owner was very responsive whenever we had a need to reach out to her. The cabin is situated in a very nice community close to town, yet remote enough so it stays peacefully quiet all the time.
We had a total of 13 people, so the downstairs refrigerator (in addition to the kitchen fridge) was a godsend!
Overall great time!!

This was our annual girls weekend trip. It’s a quick getaway for us. The home was exactly as described in the listing. It’s was extremely clean and they allow pets.
