This was a wonderful experience! As others have said the place was extremely clean. Check in process couldn’t have been any easier. The home was near NOA whitewater Center and also near the Great Smokey Mountain Railway. The accommodations were everything we needed and Jaime was very kind and communicative. We had such a lovely time.

Beautiful location, super cozy residence

Very well equipped, beautiful cabin in a nice location. There’s lots to do around the area and my family and I had a great time. The property is very clean and nicely decorated. The beds are comfortable, there are 2 rooms with a bed each. My daughters didn’t want to share the beds so we brought an inflatable mattress and everyone was comfortable.

Spring 2025

Our stay at Lazy Bear was brief, but it served the purpose we needed just fine. We were fishing in the area and needed a cabin for one night. The property manager sent us everything in advance, so checking in was very easy. The cabin seemed to be well stocked with all the essentials.

Clean and orderly

The cabin was very tidy and well stocked. The check in process was easy and arrival information was easily accessible. The only air conditioner is in a window unit and it did get quite hot in the cabin so we left all interior doors open for air circulation and it worked out ok. The resort itself was not in the best shape for its amenities. The badges left for the game room were not active, but the front desk was able to provide us a temporary one. The game room was very run down. The property listing was a bit confusing and needs to be updated. There is no longer a playground which was disappointing for my daughter. The listing pictures are all hikes that are a drivable distance away but are listed as on the property.

Spring Visit to Great Smoky Mountains

This was a nice enough place to stay for our visit to the Great Smoky Mountains. It was very clean and comfortable. Could use a few more lamps as it’s very dark in the living room and bedroom. The resort was not open for the season yet so unable to use any of their amenities. Easy access to Bryson City and Cherokee for meals.

We were very late getting to the property and only had time to sleep but the cabin was very clean! It was pleasantly presentable. The only complaint I would give is the water was turned off, presumably because of the low temperature, but understandable. Thankfully I had a case of bottled water that came in handy. I messaged the owner about our late arrival and got a response promptly. I would use this venue again if for no other reason but I was pleased overall with the accommodation! Thank you!

Great place to stay

Cabin was very nice. The place was very clean with comfortable beds, and all we needed to prepare meals. Easy place to find, and fairly close to activities in Bryson City and Cherokee. Unfortunately, a lot of the things nearby close this time of year but we found plenty of trails for hiking both at the resort and in the Smokey Mountains. Would definitely stay here again, maybe a different season to take advantage of the rafting, etc.

The cabin was very nice and clean. The location was great as well. We booked for 5 adults and 2 children. Everything met our expectations. The only slight issue was the lack of towels for the amount of people for the duration of our stay.

I am giving an overall rating of 3 because

When we walked into the cabin it smelled like a wet dog and dog urine and dog hair was all over the couch and on the rugs. Then we proceeded to take a shower and the towels smelled like they had been used to wipe ashtrays out.I called the owner he seemed to be surprised about the smoke smell and pet smell.He told me to go to the front desk and ask for towels well i did that. They had not talked to Jaime the cabin owner so they had to get the mgr involved and they tried to reach Jaime because they don't usually give out towels to the individual owners but after waiting approximately 25 minutes and he didn't return the call she finally gavue me 2 sets of towels which I was very appreciative of her. There is no hot tub at this cabin and be prepared to not be able to watch directv. If it were my cabin i would have a book of nearby attractions and local restaurants. For the price i think it was too much for what we received. i will say the king bed was very comfortable. I don't like to complain but this is the truth and we had to stay out of the cabin a lot because of the pet odor. I am personally allergic to pet dander and if i had known pets were allowed i wouldn't have stayed there. Also the one and only chair you could sit in the leg was broken otherwise you had to sit on the couches that smelled like wet dogs. The refrigerator had not been cleaned out there were drinks in there when we got there and they didn't have a ice maker.

Quiet, Clean, and Serene Cabin with Amazing Host!

I surprised my husband with a weekend getaway in Bryson City and this cabin was PERFECT! The location was great and we were surrounded by the beautiful mountains, trails, and could even hear whinnying horses during our walks from nearby stables. The cabin was extremely clean and the only insect we saw were a few friendly ladybugs (which was impressive considering the location being within the national park). The bathrooms were clean and had plenty of towels and washclothes. The amenities were scented like peaches and were good quality. The bedding and pillows were clean and SO comfortable! Kitchen had everything we needed. Our host was incredible and very responsive. We loved our stay and hope to be back soon!

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. Cabin was plenty of room for us and our pups! Clean, comfortable and cute! The host was friendly and quick to respond. Perfect getaway to the mountains. We enjoyed the close proximity to Bryson city where we rode the train and explored the town. Would book again and highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet spot in the hills!
