We offer top of the line mattresses, charging ports and all of the conveniences travelers dream of...all while embracing the rustic mountain ambiance that nature has to offer.

Our close proximity to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park means there is lots of wildlife in our area - black bears, deer, wild turkeys, raccoons, coyotes, fox, and more! Black bears visit the cabin often in Spring, Summer and Fall. You may get lucky and catch a glimpse of one of these residents while enjoying the view from the deck. We also contract regular monthly pest services which treat for all pests from multiple types of bugs, mice, etc. Despite our regular treatments, given the proximity of the cabin to the park, it is possible these pests can temporarily enter the cabin. We immediately respond and treat if anything comes up and have found it is rare to come across anything like this.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Can't Bear to Leave cabin. My two littles enjoyed the video games and racing car, which gave the adults time to visit. Win-win!! Cabin was clean upon arrival, beds and living room furniture extremely comfortable. We loved being so close to the attractions, but also enjoyed the quiet moments and peacefulness we experienced in the beautiful surroundings of this wooded cabin property. Top notch amenities on site. Location, location, location!The heating/cooling system was easy to control, and we were well comforted and stayed warm with the extra blankets provided. I greatly appreciated the prompt and easy communication from our host, Katrina, the informative guest book in the cabin, and the easy access upon our arrival.These all made for a most memorable family trip in the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains. We will definitely return! Thank you,Michelle Meissner

We had a great time! Loved the cabin, plenty of room. Had a small problem with the dishwasher, contacted the host and they were very quick to respond. Booking and checking in and out were great. Didn't get to wall around by the cabin because of the bears, they were there to greet us every morning and evening . The deck is very large, thats were we spent most of our time. The pool was right behind the house, we enjoyed that also. Would definitely stay again. The only thing I would add is more lighting , the downstairs in the front of the house was a little dark, and that is with all the lights on. Thanks for a great vacation!!Mrs. Rosey

Great family house

We enjoyed our time here! The games were great for all ages, even my teens. Close to everything on Gatlinburg. The mountain drive up to the property was steep, just like all properties in the mountain. We saw a family of four bears. We went ziplining at ClimbWorks as recommended by the hosts…incredible! Katrina is very responsive, which I really appreciate. We did bring our dog, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The roads are narrow, so no great walking areas. Very few trails allow dogs.

Fun Family Getaway

Loved this cabin! Perfect for my sweet family to get away for a few days. The cabin is a short drive up and sits in the beautiful mountains, yet is very close to downtown, the best of both worlds. The cabin was clean, very well appointed and completely stocked with everything we needed to cook in. My two grandsons absolutely loved the bunkroom/gameroom, and played non stop. The hot tub was a hit with everyone. Plenty of smart TVs so we could all keep up with our favorite streaming shows. Great and immediate communication with our Hosts, and much appreciated. Great family time!! We’ll be back!

The whole group enjoyed the experience in the cabin. It is located in the quiet area, with bears showing up in the front yard often. We enjoyed watching bears on the porch. The rooms are clean. The two story floor plan is perfect for 2 families to share the carbin. The arcade machine help keep kids busy. The communication with the hosts is very efficient and smooth. I will choose this cabin again for my next Smoky Mountain visit if it is available.

Great cabin, bears!

Clean and well maintained. Plenty of linens, but could use more places to hang them (hook on one bathroom door was missing). We saw multiple bears right from our window! The drive up was not bad at all if you have done any amount of mountain driving. From pidgeon forge, take the gatlinburg bypass to avoid traffic if you don't mind a slightly more mountainous drive.

Peaceful Mountain Stay

Can't Bear To Leave is a nice 2 story cabin with a lot of space. It's easy to get to and close to all of the places we like to visit. All of the bedrooms are roomy and the beds are comfortable. My daughter enjoyed the games ( and so did the adults 😁) Everything was very clean! The only thing we were missing were some blankets downstairs for kicking back and watching movies. I contacted the owners and they offered to have some delivered to us, but we chose not to have them go through the trouble. They are very nice and the communication from the time I booked the cabin to the day we left was top notch. I highly recommend this cabin!!
