Bear Up the Creek: Located on a serene creek in the heart of the Smoky Mountains

Our cozy cabin is located on a serene creek in the heart of the breathtaking Smoky Mountains. It sleeps 8 people and features two bedrooms and two pullout bed couches.

With easy access to major attractions and the convenience of being only 10 minutes from downtown Pigeon Forge, you can enjoy the best of both worlds – a peaceful retreat and proximity to entertainment and shopping.

This is a 2 unit property. This posted listing is for the left side. All photos are from this half. The unit has private decks and a private hot tub located on the 2nd floor.

We look forward to hosting your unforgettable getaway filled with lasting memories with family and friends!

We've found our favorite place!

We absolutely LOVE this cabin! The location is perfect. It's easy to find, easy to get on/off the road, and has spacious parking. The sound of the waterfall out back, was so relaxing. The cabin is beautiful, and clean, and everything worked as it should. It's only a few minutes to get back to the parkway, and all the attractions. We hope to book this cabin again, on our next vacation!

Midweek getaway

Cabin is not what we expected, did not see anything in description of it being a 2 unit cabin. The view of the waterfalls from the decks was amazing, but spider webs on all decks kept us from enjoying them. Cabin was clean but some of the towels and washcloths were stained so bad we wouldn’t use them. I had to call for check-in information and the thermostat was locked at 81 degrees, I was able to reach the host and this was fixed fairly quickly. Location is great and overall we did enjoy our stay since it was just for 3 nights

Wow!

Wow! What a beautiful cabin and setting. The cabin was spotless and we were welcomed with a cute greeting note which was a great personal touch. The cabin was more than we expected and had everything you need for a stay, including great appliances. The views from the balcony to sit and relax and the added benefit of a hot tub. The babbling stream out back provided a serene scene to just sit and relax. Although our children are older we appreciated the thought that went into providing a baby gate and travel cot. I would have loved this when my children were small rather than lugging it with us for travel so if you have small children this is so beneficial. The owners had really thought out what you would need for a stay. The cabin was located in a good central point to where we wanted to be and close to various grocery stores. The beds and duvets and pillows were so comfortable. In fact we looked at who made the pillows so we could buy some for home! The communication with the owners was excellent. Sitting out on the balcony with a hot coffee just watching and listening to the water flow was the most relaxed I had felt in a long time. We will definitely be booking this cabin again and cannot recommend it enough. You can tell the owners really care that you have a great stay and whether it's short or long term.
