About this property

Perfect location, Seclusion, Pet Friendly, Wooded Paradise

Look no further! Black Bear Lodge is a private, secluded cabin located in a perfect, central location between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. We have three cabins located on this private, secluded 7 Acres all situated perfectly for ultimate privacy. Trappers Ridge holds Black Bear Lodge, Flying Squirrel, and Turkey Feathers.

Being 3.5 miles to downtown Gatlinburg and 5 miles to Pigeon Forge, you have the best of both worlds. You will feel as though you are in the middle of nowhere but are a matter of minutes to restaurants, attractions, shopping, and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park entrance.

Black Bear Lodge is a two bedroom/two bathroom cabin that can sleep up to 6 (4 adults maximum) and is perfect for a family getaway, a few friends looking for some time away, or even just a couple on an anniversary or honeymoon retreat. There is one king bedroom and one bathroom upstairs with the kitchen and living room. Downstairs you will find the second bedroom (queen) and bathroom with the gameroom. Game room has two twin size sleeping areas. Each level has its own private deck viewing the beautiful wooded property. The large hot tub sits on the lower deck.

The kitchen comes fully stocked with all main appliances, cookware, dishes and utensils. No food or pantry items are provided.

We provide towels and linens as well as only a starter supply of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dish soap, and two dishwasher and laundry pods. For extended stays, you may need to bring or replenish these items.

Awesome cabin with perfect location

Everything was just as described. We could not have asked for anything more. This cabin is not far from the main strips of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge yet it is very private. We loved the wrap around porch and all the little details inside the cabin.

Cozy & great location

The Black Bear Lodge cabin was very nice. We loved the location, the hot tub, the fire places, and the promptness of the owner’s communication with us. The cabin was very tidy, and everything had its place. The only issues we had, were that the recliners need to be replaced, new mattresses, and the main bathroom outlets didn’t work. We let the owner know, so these things could be corrected for the future. All and all, we had a great stay.

Stunning

Our stay at the Black Bear Lodge was absolutely amazing it was just as it was in the pictures if not more. The secludedness of it the views just everything was beautiful. We wasn’t even out of the driveway yet and our kids was already asking when we were going to come back. If we had to say anything at all on a somewhat negative level it would be extremely hard but one thing we did have a small issue with was the hot tub though it was still amazing there was a couple things that we dealt with one being the temp button was messed up and every time we would pull the cover off to get in there would be this layer of white stuff all over the top of the water we wasn’t exactly sure what it was but it wouldn’t go away. Other than that it was absolutely amazing and we WILL definitely be booking it again for sure. Also if you are afraid of heights you will probably want to close your eyes on the drive up the road to the cabin it’s pretty steep but I promise you once you pull in that driveway it’ll all be extremely worth it. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful cabin with my family and I. Love The Taylor Family ❤️😊🥰

The property was very nice. You are definitely on the mountain and get that experience. The cabin was big enough for 5 of us, but not a lot of extra room. We enjoyed the hot tub.

Black Bear Lodge is a peaceful, fully well equipped paradise retreat.

This cabins location and nearby amenities were perfect for our week getaway. The cleanliness, furnishings, and standard supply stock of kitchen, bath, and bedrooms were more than adequate for a two person stay. Bed was extremely comfortable. There were no mechanical issues at all. Having on site amenities of recreation room & hot tub was very enjoyable. The proximity to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge allowed us to the flexibility and spontaneity we were looking for in this trip. Hosts were always available for questions both prior to and after arrival. Hosts are extremely helpful and timely in response. We had a very enjoyable week. The access to cabin was a bit tight. It's single lane, so meeting another car, which happened only once during our week's stay, required 1 vehicle to have to back up. There are 3 cabins that share this access road. Overall, this cabin is a 10 out of 10, and I would highly recommend it.

Perfect location

Loved the location of this cabin. Spent a day at Dollywood and another at Anakeesta. Cabin is directly between pigeon forge and Gatlinburg. Surrounded by the quiet woods and even saw deer and a bear on the ride into and out of the cabin a couple times. 10/10 would stay again!

Great weekend getaway

Great location between gatlinburg and pigeon Forge. Very clean cabin and was accurate in posting. Only suggestion would be to have some more commonly used items (paper towels, toilet paper, etc.) as those were sparse. Or just be sure to pack your own. The amount given will not suffice a family of 4+. Overall great place at a great price.

The cabin was nice and very secluded. The upstairs bed does not sleep very well , could use updated. It is a little noisy at night from the chestnuts falling on roof. Cabin was very clean..overall good experience.

Awesome cabin

This cabin was very nice, it isn’t a 5 star hotel, it is a cabin in the woods. So keep that in mind when booking any cabin But this one had all the games you could need as well as the hot tub! My only complaint was the mattresses both need to be replaced. They were very uncomfortable, with that being said I would absolutely book again and recommend to anyone!

Perfect Getaway

I wanted to share our experience with anyone looking for a nice place to stay in the perfect location. It was very quiet and serene; our kids saw a little black bear outside. The pool table was the perfect addition and we spent a lot of time playing with the kids. We slept comfortably and the cabin is well appointed. My only surprise was the road to get to the cabin. It was manageable but it is a bit steep(I do drive a surburban) so getting around the tight corners was a challenge. Otherwise, everything was perfect. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Misty Tobitt

Host profile image
We are a couple of Tennessee residents who absolutely love traveling to the Smoky Mountains. We were born and raised in Nashville and have recently just moved a little North of Nashville to a more country-like setting. We have been married since 1994 and our first experience with Gatlinburg was our honeymoon. We loved it then and still do! It has been a treat seeing the growth of this place over the last 20+ years.

Why they chose this property

We chose Black Bear Lodge to finish off our private 7 acre retreat. There are only three cabins located on this property and having already owned two of them (Turkey Feathers and Flying Squirrel), we have been anticipating the day we could add the third one (Black Bear Lodge) into our family!

What makes this property unique

Black Bear Lodge is located in an easily accessible location right in the middle of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
