Everything you could want

Dancing Bear Lodge was perfect for our group of 8. We had all ages from infant to adults and there was something for everyone. House was very large and spacious, and has all of the amenities. Anything I thought I was missing it turned out I just had to keep looking. For example spices, seasoning, pots all you could ask for. Will recommend to friends and am already looking to book another stay.

Great stay

We had a great stay at Dancing Bear. The home was spotless upon arrival and very well furnished. The large dining table was appreciated. Alex provided us excellent communication at all times, even providing firewood delivered when I mentioned we were in need. It was a nice touch and saved us time hunting it down. Would definitely return in the future if our travels take us back to this beautiful area.

After Christmas with family

Loved everything about this place except a couple of things. Only two working pool sticks, one video game that was ones persons favorite was not working, the basketball goal electronics did not work until we decided to change the batteries. A master bath sink was clogged. We were a family of 11 and had enough bedrooms for all! It was very spacious and was stocked very well! We absolutely loved the coffee bars, the different options of games.

Nothing Short of Amazing

My family and I take a Thanksgiving mountain trip every year for the past 6 years, and we all agreed this was by far the best cabin that we have stayed in for our trip. There was great communication with any questions we had. The property was stocked with everything you could need/want. I am not a coffee drinker, but the coffee drinkers in my family were highly impressed with the coffee bar that was on each floor. The children absolutely loved the children's den! Beds were comfortable, and the property itself was easy to access and close to numerous small towns to explore! Highly recommend!

Great Stay!

Our family stayed here while visiting Bryson City and were very satisfied. The house is close to town which was nice so we could get out and about. The house had everything we needed and all the games were a huge hit for my teens. Also, the king bed was extremely comfortable which hardly ever happens when traveling out of town. I would recommend to anyone!

Great Cabin! Great Location!

Dancing Bear Lodge was a perfect place to host a group of fly fishing friends! Plenty of bedrooms and private space for adults. Amazing amenities—the game room and pool table especially. The cabin was spotless; the kitchen was well-stocked; and the dining table was wonderful for meals and conversation.We all enjoyed the view from the porch. Alex, the host, was fantastic—easy to contact and quick to reply! The location is perfect for folks who want to visit Bryson City, the Nantahala, Cherokee, or the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Excellent home for the whole family

My family and I loved staying at Dancing Bear Lodge. We loved the location of the home and the views are amazing. The rooms and bathrooms were exactly as described and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly need. Everyone enjoyed the game room and the fire pit was a huge hit. Those were our 2 favorite spots. The fire pit is easy to get to and there was even firewood for us in the box. We loved that the hosts had Christmas Trees up on each floor as well! We stayed at this home during a visit to ride The Polar Express during Christmas time. It’s very convenient to the train depot as well. We will definitely be back to this home. We enjoyed our stay very much!
