Memories to last a lifetime are made here in the Great Smoky Mountains, in this luxury cabin with floor-to-ceiling windows. Snuggle in front of a cozy fire or in the private hot tub. Relax on one of 3 decks, play pool, or watch a movie on a massive 75" Theater TV
We're only a mile from the Pigeon Forge Parkway, on good roads, set back from the road in the trees for privacy and privately-owned for that personal touch.
The Lazy Bear Chalet is nestled in the foothills of the Smokies, about a mile from the Pigeon Forge parkway. The rustic mountain atmosphere is right in front of you, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows and beamed cathedral ceilings. The natural wood finishes and a classy warm ambiance welcomes you to your home-away-from-home. Enjoy complementary gourmet Coffee, Tea, and Hot Chocolate in the well-equipped kitchen, with all the comforts of home.

We really enjoyed Lazy Bear. Close to Pigeon Forge and plenty of room for the entire family. The cabin was very clean and well laid out. We will definitely try to stay here again next time!
The house was wonderful and very accommodating. Had plenty of supplies needed for cooking and everyday living. We did notice some cobwebs and things that made it seem a little dirty but other than that we had a great stay. We really appreciated that they had the cabin decorated for Christmas!
The cabin is absolutely beautiful and so close to all of the main attractions in Pigeon Forge. Our family had the best time during our stay and absolutely plan to stay in this location again in the future. Highly recommend!
This cabin is every bit as beautiful as the photos on the website. Our extended family of 10 was very comfortable. All of the restrooms, kitchen facilities, TVs, hot tub and grille worked properly. We would be happy to stay there again.
We loved our stay at this property it was perfect for a big family and the kids loved it it was close to everything but still private enough to enjoy , the cabin had everything we needed and was super clean and comfy when we arrived!
We had a great time. The owners were very responsive when we had minor questions. Its a beautiful home that served our family well. I would book again.
We greatly enjoyed our experience while staying at the cabin. The cadin was extremely roomy, clean, well organized, neat, and comfy. I personally didn't take advantage of the hot tub, but those who did had no complaints. When we arrived it was running and waiting.
We are a husband and wife team that enjoy managing and sharing our family cabin with other families. We hope you get as much joy from it as we have!
