Nice cabin, great views!

My family & I really enjoyed our stay at Bear Bottoms. The cabin was plenty big enough, the views were great & even though we had close neighbors it felt like we were all alone in the mountains.The only thing I would suggest is the property needs more utensils & a few more sets of dishes. We had exactly what we needed for meals so we needed to do dishes after each meal.

Great Area

Loved visiting the National Park and Polar Express ride. Was disappointed with the cabin. Spare bedroom was not as listed, instead had wobbly bunk beds so had to improvise both nights! Fire place didn’t work. Maybe it’s just the season but we were severely outnumbered by the lady bugs and stink bugs!

Headache from the start.

When we arrived on Thursday the heat was not working. My husband and my father went outside and the condensing coil was frozen. And the thermostat was locked on the inside of the cabin. They ended up getting the emergency heat to work. When we tried to light the fire place, it wouldnt work. It didnt work our entire stay. There were SEVERAL lady bugs and stink bugs throughout the cabin. A ton in the large windows, bathrooms, bedrooms. EVERYWHERE! There was black mold in the wet bar area. On the wall, the dart board game, the pictures. The bunkbeds in the spare room, were so wobbly and missing screws that no one could sleep on it. When I reached out to Vacasa they offered to relocate us, unfortunately they did not have anything in the area. They then offered to refund my money and we could find somewhere else. Again, unfortunately there was nothing in the area for a reasonable price (it would take 3-5 business days to get a refund) and we had tickets to the Polar Express. They offered to send someone up on friday to address our issues and no one ever came nor called. Our trip was through Sunday, and we decided to leave on Saturday, after trying to tough it out. The only thing positive about this trip was the views! We definitely will not book this cabin in the future.

Great place great area (poor management means you need to bring your own stuff)

The cabin is great and your adventure will start at the driveway! No WiFi Vacasa manages the property and they won’t answer the phone on the weekend - if you arrive on Saturday you’ll need to do your best to see what supplier you need we got 1 roll of toilet paper /bath no soap for shower 2 kitchen garbage bags no sponges and no broom. They knew for 3 months that there would be six of us staying for a week. It was never stated in the advertisement for the house. “They said it’s not their policy to stock the house” They did deliver a broom on Tuesday. So buy your own supplies ahead of time and you’ll be fine. Bring binoculars to see the elk grazing in the distant pastures.

Over rated

The place looks good and in a good location, it's amenities listed a gas grill, fire pit, fireplace and direct TV, when you travel from out of state you at the amenities and understand you pay a cost for them, the list of 4 important things didn't work and we spoke to several people, 2 phone calls, 5 emails and several text messages and after all of my efforts not a single person showed up to fix anything. We paid up front and got shafted I would not recommend this management team to anyone. We also took very good photos of all the items and the awful none working conditions they were in.

No oven , and no cable. Back door handle broke off in your hand. No wifi or reseption

The home it's self was perfect. But with no wifi, or cell reseption it was hard to reach anyone about the issues in the home. When we did get through, although the 3different peaple I spoke to on 3different days about the same issues were very polite and understanding. No one ever came to fix the issues.

Incredible view

Property was just as advertised and the view was incredible. Clean and bright with all the amenities . The road up to the cabin was challenging and steep, so we opted to leave our trailer at the storage place at the entrance to the street ( worked out well ). A “fall” view with the trees in color would be even more incredible. A nice stay in a nice cabin and we enjoyed this opportunity . Thank you .

Beautiful view

We enjoyed our stay very much. There was a windy paved drive up a steep road, but our FWD car did fine. The home was pretty clean when we arrived. The 3 floors give ample space. The beds were pretty comfortable. The landscaping was very nice. The view was spectacular. The fire pit was great for smores. Our only complaint was a constant barrage of stink bugs and many wasps that got into the home through a small hole behind the kitchen. We had to spray the wasps almost every day to get rid of them. Communication from the rental agency was minimal but adequate.

We'll be back...

Loved the cabin, the views and the proximity to GSMNP. We were there in summer...plenty of room for my family of 6. Could have slept more with kids on couches. There is a gas grill and cooking utensils....really everything you need. One note, listing says gas fireplace seasonal. What that means is the fuel tank for property outside is either off or empty such that not only is the indoor fireplace off buy the outdoor firepit as well. We brought fire wood but no fire ring and instructions say dont make one. So wonderful place but dont expect fire at night unless winter. That wont stop us from coming back.

Great Cabin

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It exceeded out expectations. It was more than the description online. The kitchen was well stocked with dinnerware, cookware, silverware.. everything you could need. Plenty of towels. It was clean, had extra batteries, lightbulbs if needed. There’s a gas grill, which was a pleasant surprise! The view off the back deck did not disappoint! We highly recommend this cabin!

Very Nice 3 story cabin on the mountain

My family and I had a great time staying at the cabin. Everything was as described and we were very comfortable in the house. Warning to all who stay here that, also as described, there is a 1 lane VERY steep road that leads you to the cabin. The only problem with this is that if there is a person going up the mountain and someone going down at the same time that means someone will have to go in reverse on the extremely steep road on the side of a cliff with a drop off. We were not use to this so it was extremely scary for us. Other very small issues was that there were cobwebs and spider webs everywhere with living spiders. We know and understand this is in the woods on a mountain, but it does need a good cleaning with a long duster or broom. There were multiple clocks in the house, but most of them do not work. The door locks to the back deck did not work after multiple attempts to secure the 2nd floor. Again, these are very small problems and did not effect our stay very much. Overall, we had a great time and felt extremely comfortable on our stay at the cabin. Very close to Cherokee SC.

I love the guiet time with the sunrise and my coffee before everyone got up. The location was not far from Bryson City, Dillsboro, or Cherokee for us to go and do. My son lives in the area and came and we had a big breakfast one day. 4 generations there together spending time.
