Stay at Bears Den
Cabin was beautiful. Very accurate description. Cleanliness was top notch. Kitchen was well equipped. Was pet friendly. Large porch with swings and gates that latched so Willow could be outside but confined. Would highly recommend.

Our trip was fabulous and the cabin was terrific! Jo does a great job of keeping it very clean and communication was spot on. My favorite part was the wrap around porch. Kinda like a tree house. We will do it again!

This was a perfect location for our short stay over Memorial Day! Plenty of room for a family of 5-8 people. Pet friendly! Very quiet! Cabin is clean and equipped with all necessities for cooking! Short distance to Pigeon Forge or any attractions in the area! Loved our stay and we will definitely book again!
