Whispering Bears Chalet*Hot Tub*Just mins.to Ober Mtn*Gatlinburg*National Park

Welcome to Whispering Bears Chalet, a nature-themed mountain retreat perfectly located on Ski Mountain in Chalet Village great for families, adventurers, friend get aways and couples. Our prime location offers the best of both worlds — from the hot tub and deck enjoy seasonal mountain views through the trees in the winter, a peaceful forest setting in the summer, and a beautiful mountain view at the end of the driveway year-round. It’s the ideal escape for guests who want to feel immersed in nature without sacrificing convenience.

Just 3–5 minutes (less than 1 mile) from Ober Mountain, guests enjoy quick access to skiing, tubing, and year-round mountain attractions, while still being minutes from downtown Gatlinburg and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. After a day of adventure, relax in the private hot tub, listen to the sounds of the woods, and enjoy the calm, cozy mountain atmosphere.

Nature lovers will appreciate being less than a few miles from the entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, making it easy to explore scenic drives, hiking trails, waterfalls, and wildlife.

After a day of exploring, unwind in the large private hot tub, relax on the deck surrounded by trees, or enjoy a cozy evening inside with games, books, and a warm mountain atmosphere. Whether you’re here for adventure, relaxation, or a little of both, Whispering Bears Chalet offers the perfect balance of location, comfort, and mountain charm.
