About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Close proximity to downtown Gatlinburg!
The Bear's Den is a true log cabin in the heart of Gatlinburg. Whether it be the cozy cabin decor or the beautiful mountain view, we think that you will love our mountain getaway. Only 3 miles from downtown, you will easily be able to enjoy all of the attractions! Or, stay in and enjoy the privacy next to the fireplace or in the brand new hot tub. In the summer time, the resort also offers two pools, one of which is walking distance from the property. There is also a nearby playground for the kids and pavilion for entertaining. We love our repeat guests and hope that you will make the Bear's Den your home away from home in the Smokies!

Very convenient place to stay for soccer tournaments
Our stay was very pleasant. The house is extremely clean. Very close (within 5 min.)to Rocky Top Sports World. Doesn’t take long to get to the cabin from main road, so not having to drive all the way up a mountain was a plus! The bedroom downstairs is only a full and not very comfortable. The upstairs bed was way better and bigger. Perfect for up to 4 people.

Anniversary Get Away
Loved this lil place. Nice, quiet and cozy spot to decompress. The fireplace didn't work for us during our stay but the host was made aware and responded quickly. The cabin is equipped with basic necessities and the hot tub is a great feature. We definitely would stay here again. 5 days did not seem long enough!
Great cabin ! Very cosy and the hot tub on the deck is great. Property owners were very flexible and helpful! Situated close to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge … would definitely recommend

Great short trip!
The property was amazing! There was just some confusion regarding check-in and checkout procedures but otherwise great time! PS the upstairs bedroom has NO ac so I would pack a fan of sorts for that bedroom!

Great cabin, great location!
We really enjoyed the cabin! Everything was great - the location, the neighborhood, the deck with the hot tub, and access to the pool just a short walk away. We've stayed at a few different places around Gatlinburg over the past five years, but this was by far our favorite!

Cozy Little Cabin
This cozy cabin is in a great location. Decorated perfectly for bear country. Hot Tub on the deck was especially nice. We did not use the loft as it was just the 2 of us but very roomy over all. We even saw a bear in front of the cabin just slowly walking across the street.. Cabin could use a hot pad & a cookie sheet type pan for cooking in the oven. The bed is a full size which I overlooked when booking but husband & I managed okay. Other than the size of bed, we would rent again. Host was very responsive when contacted.
