Beautiful home with gorgeous view of the Smokey mountains. We spent most of our time on the deck with the awesome rocking chairs. Well stocked kitchen, with large table for eating. The house was perfect for our family of 10. Adults, teenagers and a toddler. The owners provided us with plenty of useful information about the house and the area.

Cabin was perfect! The views were tremendous. Lori and August were wonderful to work with with.
If you have little kids it may not be recommended. Open stairways. We just kept a close eye on ours!
Plenty of room! It is up a mountain so be prepared to drive narrow steep roads.

This is such a breathtaking cabin!! We did a cousin road trip with adults and teens. It was just so perfect exactly what we needed! We were away from the city and busy roads. We were so high up looking at the tree tops and Smokey Mountains! At night was the best seeing all the beautiful stars. If you are looking for a chance to see black bears you will. We were so excited staring at them from the top balcony or outside our bedroom porch doors. Out of the five days we saw them twice in the morning. We stayed in contact with Lori. She was the best hands down host! She was quick to contact back with any questions or concerns we had. Everything is pretty explained to you before arriving. She has everything you need during your stay. Just be ready for steep hills it was something so new to us as we live in the Chicagoland and we loved that. Our teen did not want to leave. We were all debating about staying longer just because how beautiful the cabin was and the view was jaw dropping.

Host were very responsive to emails. The cabin is spacious and very clean. The scene/view is great. It's located very high up in the mountains, it took a little extra pressing of the gas peddle to get up the road. As you are in the vicinity of the cabin area, the roads are very narrow to the point where only one car at time can go pass comfortably, so be careful. They had everything we needed by way of cooking (pots, pans, bowls, plates, etc...). We brought our own paper products, who wants to wash dishes for a big group (they do have a dishwasher). One thing I forgot to bring was my griddle, if you like to cook lots of meat for breakfast at one time that would have been perfect. The only problem, not really a problem, but everything we're use to is a drive away (Walmart, restaurants, etc...). Unless you are familiar with the area, don't plan on going out after dark. We couldn't imagine returning from the store in the dark and trying to find the cabin....All in all,
we really liked/enjoyed Dreaming Bear Cabin.

Our family had a gathering at Dreaming Bear, and it was a dream! The view is spectacular, and the house was very comfortable and accommodating to our 10 adult family members.

We had a great stay. The house was perfect. Beds were the most comfortable for any VRBO house we've rented. Beautiful view and perfect location. Owners were very responsive to our needs.

We all needed this time away and together. My husband and I were celebrating our 26th wedding anniversary and decided to share with others. It was great opportunity to show love with others. Thank you for having this available. We would love to come back. We decided to travel together and send others where we have visited. Especially those worthy to mention.

We had 10 guests because it was a 10-person cabin. We only had 3 towels. When we called the property customer assistance number, they said they would bring us towels by the next morning at the latest. The called is the following evening and said they didn’t have any more towels for us, but we could go buy our own if we wanted to! Crazy. We were there 3 days abs several of our guests never took a shower because they did not have a towel. Very disappointed.

The property was amazing the view was stunning could have sat on the patio forever. The only thing that we would have changed would have been the bed in the master bedroom it has seen better days.

We booked this cabin to celebrate a friends birthday, and our group throughly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was well stocked to make great meals and bake a cake, the views were incredible, the bear family was adorable (they visited twice), and the rooms were clean and comfortable.

Property has beautiful views as described. The balcony was great and property had everything I needed to cook for the masses. The 3 big tubs were great and we loved the comfortable open spaces for a large group

Our dream of seeing bears came true! A momma and three little cubs played in the back yard for almost a half hour! We very much enjoyed our stay at Dreaming Bears! The cabin was very clean and beds were comfy! We ate out alot this time, usually we cook alot. We did struggle to find dishes for cooking, like knives, tupperware for leftovers, etc. I still give this cabin and the owners and their cleaning staff 5 🌟! Would definitely rent this cabin again! We loved the wings at the eatery in the store near the cabins entrance! Their pizza was good too and we also liked Trish's Diner.

Grill
This cabin was absolutely beautiful. Beautiful is an understatement. Now here's the sad part: this place needs a gas grill. That Charco grill was not good and it was not clean. Owners please invest in getting a gas grill. If you do so, this cabin will be completely perfect.

Amazing View! Lots of space!
If you’re thinking about booking this property, just do it! When we arrived the check in process was super easy. Lost of driveway space and room for trash. We had 3 cars but could easily fit 6 if needed. The place fits 14 which we had exactly and let me tell you, plentyyyy of space for all 14 people. There is one large master and 4 bedrooms with queen beds all with private bathrooms and jacoozi tubs. Water heat was not an issue once. Kitchen is huge and very well stocked with all kitchen needs. Most rental properties I’ve stayed in I’ve had a mediocre bed, nothing special. These were the most comfortable rental beds I’ve everrrr stayed on. Just as good as my pricey one at home. Hot tub and entire property was spotless. Kudos to the cleaning ladies we actually met on our way in. They were very thorough. NOT TO MENTION THE VIEW!!! Absolutely stunning all the way around. The owner recommended restaurants and things to do. Very responsive. Renters tip: don’t even try to order Uber. Go with local taxis, they come right away and schedule pick up. So reliable. We used Benz taxis and I’m sliding over to Google to review them now too. STAY HERE

Amazing Location!
Our family had our bi-annual vacation at Dreaming Bear and we loved it. The cabin is clean, inviting, comfortable, and has amazing views! The is plenty of space for seating both in the living areas and at the kitchen table. The beds are comfortable and there is plenty of bathrooms. The space outdoors offered great views and a quiet place to enjoy it (when the kids were napping!).
We had some issues with the 'fully stocked kitchen' description. There were some appliances lacking and the pots and pans could use some updating but we bought what we needed or made it work with what we had. I would check to be sure what you need is at the cabin before arriving. The owners are easy to work with and were incredibly fast in responding to any questions we had. I highly recommend Dreaming Bear for any large family vacation.

Dreaming Bear is. Dram come true!
We had an amazing family vacation at this cabin in the mountains. The house was spotless on arrival and is stocked with everything you need. The views from the huge back decks are beautiful. We even got to see a mama bear and her two cubs! The bedrooms and bathrooms are a great size and we had plenty of space for our party of 9. The kids enjoyed the game room and pool table and had their own space with bedrooms on the second floor. The house is about a 30 minute drive from all the great activities the Smokey Mountains have to offer. We had a great time rafting and zip lining at Rafting in the Smokies, enjoyed a driving tour through the Smokey Mountain National park to see Newfound Gap and Klingman’s Dome and spent a day at Dollywood Splash Country water park. And we capped off our trip with a delicious breakfast at Trish’s Mountain Diner. The owners were great to communicate with and very accommodating. I highly recommend this property!!

Beautiful views & Bears
Pretty easy to get to, map out the directions for your first drive up, GPS froze the 1st time. The resident mama bear was aware of us, but we gave her plenty of space. The cubs were so cute climbing the trees.

Beautiful Cabin and Location
Everyone had an amazing time at the cabin, one of the best vacations I've been on. Cabin and scenery were beautiful. The cabin had more than enough room for our group of 9, there were 13 coming but one group couldn't be there, but there would have been plenty of room for them all. Everything was so clean. Lots to entertain the teen and smaller youngin's. I do recommend wearing shoes while on the decks though, some spots are rather aged and there was one issue with a fairly large splinter, but other than that the place was amazing and I definitely recommend this cabin for a peaceful home away from home. I plan to go back again in the future, maybe during spring so I can see more of the local wild life. We unfortunately came at the end of winter so we didn't get the pleasure of seeing the bears we were hoping to spot, did get to see a few raccoons and deer though.

It’s all about the view!!!
The view of Mt Leconte from the porch is incredible. First thing every morning, I wanted to check on the view. The cabin was spotlessly clean…all 5 bathrooms and the kitchen…. The entire cabin was white glove clean. All the beds were comfortable. The adults had a poker night at a real poker table., and the teenagers had fun learning the game. The kitchen is well equipped to handle a crowd…. Plenty of dishes and glasses. We hiked in the greenbrier area of the park and escaped the Gatlinburg traffic. We highly recommend this cabin, and hope to return.

Friend getaway
We really enjoyed our time in this cabin. The cabin was equipted with everything we needed. Getting to the cabin was an adventure as the road up was steep and windy. Would stay here again if in that area of Tennessee.

Peace in the Mountains
Peaceful tranquility is the best way to describe this property. We had a wonderful family vacation at Dreaming Bear. The owners were incredibly responsive to our needs and the house lived up to the description. The location was about 30 minutes from anything that we wanted to do. We look forward to coming back!!

Perfect for a family and friends gathering
Large home with amazing views. Plenty of space for a large group. Plenty of plates, cups and cook wear to feed the whole mob. Stop by the store, stock up on groceries and spend days enjoying the peace and quiet high up on the mountain.

Beautiful cabin
What a breath taking view! We stepped in the cabin and were just astounded at how beautiful everything was! We were lucky enough to catch the most beautiful snowy evening.
Cabin was clean, Property manager was fantastic to talk with. I'd give this property 10 stars if I could.
Thanks for having us!

AMAZING VIEWS!!
Everything about the property was incredible! There were 10 of us staying, 8 adults and 2 children, and it was perfect. The view off the deck was amazing! Lori was very helpful and quick with responding to any questions we had.
Thank you again for a great experience!

Great cabin for a large family. Roads are steep going up to the cabin but with its location that is to be expected.

Christmas Getaway
Had a great time and the house was really nice. Plenty of things for the kids to do. The roads going up to the house was a little tricky. One question, just a little curious how did you get those logs up there to build the house? All and all we really enjoyed our stay

First annual Christmas vacation
Our family decided we want to start spending more time together. After reviewing several listings, we chose Dreaming Bear at Pittman Center. It was better than we imagined! So much room for everyone to be together and separate when that was necessary, too. The dining table was large enough to seat the whole family for breakfast and dinner. The only advise I would give, remember you are staying in a beautiful location up the mountain, which means it's a slightly steep drive! But worth every bit of it. I had a couple of questions during our stay and the owners were extremely prompt to respond. I would highly recommend this location to anyone with a large group.

As advertised.
Very spacious and nice cabin. The kitchen needed pot holders and dish towels, appliances need updating. Definitely would have liked to have more than one bath towel per person. Over all a very nice cabin with the best view of the mountains. Would stay here again.
