About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

🏔️ Life's A Bear 🐻 Smoky Mountain Views, Fireplace, Pool Table + Hot Tub

Why You'll Love this Mountain Escape:
* Ridge top view with a fifty mile sightline across the Smoky Mountains
* Nearly 30 foot stone fireplace under cathedral ceilings

* Primary king suite with a two person jetted tub, plus a queen bedroom upstairs
* Hot tub above, fire pit below, both facing the same view
* Professionally managed with local support throughout your stay.

Fifty miles of the Smoky Mountains fall away past the deck rail, with Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge tucked into the valley below. Life's A Bear wraps a two story wall of glass around that view, so the fireplace and the mountains share the same room from sunrise on. This 1,440 square foot log cabin sleeps 4 across a main level primary suite and an upper level guest room, built for a couple or two couples after a private ridge top escape close to town.

Bed Setup:
Primary Bedroom (main level): King Bed
Guest Bedroom 1 (upper level): Queen Bed

Setting & Neighborhood:
Set high on a private ridge just minutes from downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, this cabin trades a crowded resort strip for total quiet and an open Smoky Mountain view. The wraparound decks and top level hot tub all face the same sky, with dark, secluded nights once the sun goes down.

Disclaimers:
Pets are not allowed at this cabin.
This property is not available to adults under the age of 21.

Area Attractions:
Ober Gatlinburg, the Arts and Crafts Community, and Anakeesta are all nearby in Gatlinburg for mountain adventure and local makers. Dollywood and Splash Country anchor the Pigeon Forge side, with The Island close by for dinner and the nightly light show.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. A Smart TV comes with satellite channels, and guests can stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Great place, conveniently located

The cabin was great with great views and amenities. Loved the balcony and the fire pit and the kids loved the jacuzzi and pool table. The place was conveniently located about 20-30 min to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge and 60 min drives to Cades Cove and whitewater rafting in the Pigeon River.
