Our family of 13 had a great time at this property! There were enough beds and bathrooms for all of us to be comfortable. The large dining table inside and picnic tables outside allowed us all to gather for meals, card games, and conversation. The kids really enjoyed the pool table, video games, and hot tub as well. Plus, we had a bear visit us several mornings. It was a memorable trip!

This property was in a great location, close to Ober Mountain, we hiked up there(it’s quite a steep hill but we took our time and it was fine). The cabin is quite spacious with enough TV’s and bathrooms for everyone. It will sleep 8 adults and 4 kids with no problem. The kitchen is very well stocked with just about any gadget you can think of and plenty of place settings, glassware, cookware, etc….(it’s like how you would have your own home stocked). We liked the easy in and out of the driveway. Lisa Duncan, the host of the property, is very easy to deal with and very prompt responding to any questions you may have. We never saw any bears around the property. ☹️ Overall-great vacation, great weather and a very nice cabin!

My friends and I had an amazing time at Bearwood for our cabin-birthday weekend! The cabin is equipped with everything that you could need for an enjoyable and comfortable stay. The kitchen is stocked with every tool you could ask for, the game room/hot tub was amazing, and the drive to town was a short 10 minutes away. Overall, I would book this cabin again in a heartbeat, thanks, Lisa!

The cabin was comfortable, wonderfully stocked, and fit all of our needs. The hot tub was an added luxury that our whole family enjoyed. The short drive to the aerial tram made for a sweet family time going down the mountain with beautiful views of the Smoky's, including a sleeping bear! The tram dropped us in the midst of Gatlinburg, which was bustling with holiday cheer. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay at Bearwood again.

Lisa from the get go was very accommodating. We lacked nothing during our stay. We had 11 adults and one child. There were beds and enough space for all to spread out. We cooked a big turkey dinner. Kitchen was fully stocked. We enjoyed coffee bar each morning and sat out on the deck to enjoy the beautiful view. The brars came by for a visit. Night before our departure, one of our friends decided to put a few things in their vehicle......em bears 🐻 were watching...next morning vehicle doors were open, em 🐻 just knew there was something yummy they could find to eat...BINGO..it wasn't much but they discovered it and went on their merry way. Overall the best place to make great memories with family and friends. Thank you Lisa

Upon making our reservation we were promptly greeted and had all our questions answered swiftly. The property was everything we had come to expect and more, plenty of room for our 4 adults and 4 children. We got to see bears during our stay too. Being right next to Ober it was a wonderful location. Our stay was problem free, wonderful in every way, cleanliness was superb, the hot tub was wonderful on the cold nights, and our kids had the entire basement to play. We will be booking this location next year during fall as well.

The master suite and double shower head in the master bedroom was great! We enjoyed the hot tub and the pool table, the driveway was also perfect for our 7 car group. It made pulling in and around so easy! 10/10 would recommend and will probably be booking this same place for future stays!!

This place was lovely for our long weekend getaway! Plenty of space for 10 of us (2 were small children). We loved watching for bears and were not disappointed! The kitchen was well stocked for creating meals. Beds were comfortable and everyone enjoyed having their own space. I communicated with the owners a couple of times during our stay and they were very prompt in getting back with me. Thanks for a great stay!

This property has everything you need. Beware you will see Bears(we saw them at least 8x in a 4 day period) My family absolutely loved the space and our time here. We were a family of 10 and had plenty of space. I would highly recommend!

This house was the perfect location and size for our party. We had a great time and loved the ease of the location of our house. Thank you!

Beautiful cabin

Set up a nature cam and recorded bears : adults, Mama's and a cub, Mama's and twins! Also a coyote! Enjoy!

We had a great time at this cabin Is conveniently located in a nice setting the the property manager reached out to us several times to make sure everything was going well highly recommended

Beautiful, tranquility and close to town. Great place to spend time with family of all ages.

My family of 11 had a great time at this lovely property. Private setting but close to the pool area and we enjoyed watching a bear or two just strolling through the yard every day. I wish I could give it a 4.5 rating. The only issue is that the air conditioning in the 2 bedrooms on the lower level is not adequate enough and it was very warm the week we were there. Overall, we had a wonderful experience staying here. An added bonus is the peace of mind that if you ever are in need of a paramedic the response is less than 5 minutes.

The location was wonderful. Seeing bears everyday was so exciting. Family had a great time. Please make sure you lock your car doors or have your video ready to film the bears getting in your car. No damage!

This property met our family's needs really well. Six adults and six kids ages 2-11. The kids enjoyed the arcade game and pool table a lot! Kitchen is well-stocked with dishes/silverware and appliances like waffle iron, crock pots and instant pot and coffee makers. We ate breakfasts and lunches in and had half our dinners at restaurants and half at the chalet. The decks are huge, hot tub great; internet worked great. Drive-around driveway---I don't know how we would have managed 3 vans/SUVs without it. VERY NICE! We all got to see bears. None aggressive though we certainly didn't attempt to interact, etc! They came through the deck frequently enough we couldn't let the kids outside alone. The chalet is very very close to the pool--but the path down the hill is really a bear path, and to walk around involved walking on a narrow road with cars...so we took vehicles to the pool when we went. There is a baby pool and a slide in the big pool. We were comfortable in the chalet with enough beds and separate spaces for the littles to still rest in afternoon and the bigger kids didn't have to be quiet. I took an electric griddle and we had pancakes one morning and French toast another morning. It was great to have the washer/dryer, especially when littles tripped while wading in a creek. It was all really fun. We all hiked to Laurel Falls the first morning there. Some of us hiked to Grotto falls (??) it was a longer, harder hike. We did floating/rafting on the Pigeon River. We had a movie night one night. We played games and just had lots of great time with families together and cousins getting to know each other even better. One day one group went to Soaky Mountains (a water park) which they loved. We ate at the Old Mill, Chesapeake, and The Peddler for dinners out- and one night pizza at the Gatlinburg Brewery (which was fantastic-- we didn't have that high of hopes and their pizza is just terrific!) We especially loved that this location is much closer to where we live (less than 6 hours) and the weather was less humid than Hilton Head or Florida would have been. We had a wonderful trip.

The location was wonderful. Seeing bears everyday was so exciting. Family had a great time. Please make sure you lock your car doors or have your video ready to film the bears getting in your car. No damage!

We had such a great experience staying here. We walked in to a clean, cozy and welcoming space with the fireplace going. The open concept kitchen to living room made gathering so easy and enjoyable. We could tell that the host put in extra effort to make us feel welcome and comfortable. She was so responsive with any questions we had and we were able to communicate all weekend if we needed anything. 10/10 recommend a stay here with friends or family!

good

A Great Home! Everyone had their own space. The best place to stay for skiing. Walk to ober shuttle right outside driveway. The best and flattest driveway on the mountain.
