It is non-operational during the warm season. * STARTER SUPPLIES: We provide a starter set of coffee pods, paper towels, toilet paper, and soaps.

The host was welcoming and explained everything about the cabin before I arrived. The cabin is spacious, has all the amenities you need for a week long stay, and is very nicely decorated on the inside. As an extra convenience, every streaming service I tried to use was already signed in.
Cabin was very clean, bed was extremely comfortable, everything was perfect with the amenities. Even had a great thunderstorm and got to sit on the porch while it rained. Extremely relaxing. Would recommend to anyone who wants a couples get away.

Everything was perfect, there was plenty to cook with even spices! They location was great close enough to everything but tucked away in a nice wooded area. My wife and I would definitely stay here again!
everything about the place is amazing ,near all the great attractions too, was speaking on having to make another trip here. Warm and cozy and the hot tub really kicked it off
The Grinning Bear was a great place to stay. It was close to all of the attractions but tucked away in a peaceful culdesac. The cabin was clean and cozy. We enjoyed the hot tub and playing pool. We are already planning another trip!
We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Very clean and we had everything we needed. We loved the loft bedroom and the openness. It’s a great place for a couple’s getaway.
It was the perfect house for a weekend trip for just my husband and I, the location was perfect and it’s quick to get to both downtown Gatlinburg and pigeon forge! Loved the hot tub and fire place, would definitely stay here again in the future!
