Cabin was very clean and very private for hot tub as foliage blocked any neighbors. Sunrise provides great vista from back deck and hot tub. Check in and communication with owner is very easy.

Perfect location
We loved our stay here. The location was exactly what we were looking for away from all of the hustle and bustle but only a short drive away to Gatlinburg. We enjoyed spending time in the hot tub and had all of the amenities that we needed. Dollar General is only a short drive away if you forget anything. We can’t wait to stay here again.

Perfect Getaway with Friends
This cabin is the perfect spot for a girls’ trip or a getaway for the family. We really enjoyed the location, as it’s not right in the middle of the hustle & bustle, but close enough if you want a little more action. If you don’t want to go into Pigeon Forge there are several restaurants & coffee shops nearby (we recommend Elvira’s) as well as Whaley’s market to pick up essentials. We enjoyed the hot tub at the cabin as well as the many board games provided by the host. I don’t drink coffee, but my friends really enjoyed the coffee bar set up. Can’t wait to stay at the Bear Neccesities again.

Perfect place for a family getaway
We stayed here with our 3 kids and it was a great set up for us. The kids loved the spiral staircase and sleeping up in the loft!
Because our kids are younger we knew we wouldn't be able to be out all day/every day. We spent a good portion of our trip just relaxing and enjoying the hot tub and mountain view from the back porch. Samantha and Don made the whole experience very easy. The place is really wonderfully decorated and we could tell they put a lot of thought into the little details.

Perfection!
You will find everything that the listing says and so much more. The renovations to this cabin are brand new. The craftsmanship and decor are 5 star. The property owners paid attention to every detail. The kitchen and bathrooms are equipped with all the essentials. There is a game room upstairs that was the perfect hideaway for our kids. There are ample linens, all high quality. The mattresses were top quality foam and the pillows were perfect. The views on the deck are exactly what we love while staying in the Smokies! Sam was extremely responsive and lovely to work with. This updated cabin will exceed your expectations!
