Bear Paws - Located just minutes from downtown Gatlinburg, the Ober Gatlinburg Ski Lodge and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. 'Bear Paws' is about 3 miles from downtown Gatlinburg in the Chalet Village community.

The large wooded lot provides excellent beauty and noise is practically non-existent in this area. The chalet is a beautiful 3 story modified A-Frame with 3 full levels. You will enjoy 2 wood burning fireplaces ( 1 in the main living room and 1 one in the rec. room). 4 private bedrooms to accommodate 8 guests comfortably. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level and 2 bedrooms upstairs. 1 full bath on each level. The lower level has a huge rec. room with pool table, ping pong table, plenty of lounge seating, cable tv and a wood burning fireplace.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary appliances including stove/oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, toaster etc. All cook ware and plate ware is provided. Towels and linens are provided as well. All you need to supply are the groceries. (Or skip the cooking while you are on vacation and enjoy one of the fantastic restaurants in downtown Gatlinburg).

Just out back and tucked under a covered gazebo, is the 4 - 6 seater hot tub to soak your cares away after a busy day.

About 2 miles away is Ober Gatlinburg, a beautiful ski resort with excellent ski slopes, a large indoor ice skating rink, restaurants, lounges and even a bear zoo. The aerial tram to Ober Gatlinburg takes you directly to the heart of downtown in 15 minutes and can be seen from the chalet as it passes overhead.

Guests at Bear Paws also have access to three seasonal clubhouses located within the Chalet Village community, each offering pools, tennis courts, and other amenities (open from Memorial Day through Labor Day). While these clubhouses are part of the same community, driving times can vary from 10 to 15 minutes,

I’ll start with the positives. Nothing leaked during our stay. There was plenty of seating for our family of eight in both the living room and at the dining table. We always had hot water. On our first night, we saw bears playing nearby, which was really neat. The hot tub was wonderful.Unfortunately, there were many issues. There is a very strong sewer smell, making it impossible to leave the front door or sliding doors open. The bedroom with the balcony appears to have something living in the wall; we were woken multiple times each night by scurrying noises. Cobwebs were also present in that bedroom.Both deck floors need refinishing, and the main floor deck railing needs attention. The rocking chairs are molding. A grill is listed as an amenity, but there was no usable grill, and the grill scraper/cleaner and ash scooper were left in the grass. There were no potholders for the oven, and while a mixer was provided, it had no beaters.The upstairs sink would not drain, and my husband had to clean it out himself. We could not play pool because only one cue had a usable tip. Ping pong was playable, but the paddles need replacement. Heat on the main level did not work properly until vents elsewhere were closed. When closing the vent over the dining table, black debris came out, suggesting the vents need cleaning. The floors also creak excessively.Overall, the cabin has potential but needs maintenance and care.

The carpet needs to be replaced in all the rooms, it is very spotted and nasty. In the bedroom facing the balcony there was a dead squirrel under the table. It had the entire cabin smelling. We had to buy candles and air fresheners to help rid the smell. The toilet downstairs needs to be checked, it flushes slow and stops up! The bathrooms on the first and second floor were nice. The beds were comfortable, but pillows were flat. We got to see several bears and that was nice! Nice area, but the cabin was just outdated!

The property had a good setup. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The living room was cozy with very comfortable seating. The beds were comfortable. We did have a little visitor in the home. Somehow a flying squirrel gained entrance. We qere able to get the little one out. We saw a few bears. The balconies were great to sit on and juat liaten to nature. The drive to the cabin was a little scary, especially at night, but we mastered it. All in all, it was a great place to stay and the owner returned texts quickly. We will definitely stay here again.

The cabin was a great place for our family getaway. 8 adults were comfortable in the cabin, and there was plenty of space to sit and to spread out. It's also a great place to spot bears from the safety of the second floor porch! Make sure to keep your car doors locked.

Was hoping the pool was within walking distance so we didn't have to load everyone up each time. Overall a very nice stay. We had bear visitors 3 of the 4 days.
