This stay created core memories for my family and i! The hot tub was a fan favorite as well as the bedroom with the little loft area-Our kids really loved that they had their own little area! We walked evrrywhere while we were there and it was located in a great area to do so! We also enjoyed the mini golf that was right by the cabin! Such a fun little getaway for my family!

Very nice cabin. Beds were very comfortable. Cabin just needs some minor maintenance screw missing on upper cabinet door. 1st floor bedroom door latch was broken. Some ants running around but not many. Pots and pans need replacing as they are wore out. Besides that great location and very nice.

Very Nice, Comfortable Cabin

The property is as the photos show. Very nicely decorated and comfortable after long days of hiking and touring. I would stay there again. The management staff were very nice and recommended some really great restaurants. If you go, make sure to pack a hairdryer because one isn't provided. The washer and dryer was nice to wash out our things after a long day at Dollywood! We enjoyed this cabin and. would stay here again!

Smokey Mountains Trip

We loved our stay in Bear Cub! It was even better than pictured. It was the perfect respite after a day of hiking, especially relaxing in the hot tub. The cabin was spotless and showers and bathrooms were all very clean with plenty of towels. It also sits logistically in a great location so you are just a short distance from the hustle and bustle of Gatlinburg yet right there to go grab dinner. Loved how this cabin was tucked away in the heart of everything.

Great Location!

This cabin was fantastic! Location is close enough to the strip but not so close you get a lot of noise. The deck, hot tub, & creek make the perfect relaxation set up. The only thing I would change is it needs a good dusting. It’s not bad but the fans & tops of things need dusted.
