Extremely clean, great amenities, including pool and hot tub with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our two families. Very quiet during the week with a livelier crowd over the weekend. Close to Pigeon Forge while at the same time feeling like we were a step away from the hustle and bustle. Excellent communication with host, we enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

We enjoyed our 2nd stay at Black Bear Lodge and loved it! It is the perfect place for our family to reconnect. We love that the bedrooms are on one floor, the common area is on another floor, and the pool/fun area is on a separate floor. This allows "together" time and yet allows everyone to have "private" time. The owner, Karen, was just an email away for anything that we needed. Thank you for allowing us to make another year of memories b sharing your wonderful house and the beautiful views.

This property was amazing! It was beautiful inside with spacious well-decorated rooms, each having an ensuite bathroom. Loved that! My grandsons loved the huge bunk beds. The long farmhouse table was great for meals. The game table was nice so the kids could leave their games out. We cooked 2 meals a day in the kitchen. And the inside pool was a hit, as was the jacuzzi. And the view was gorgeous. We loved this place and highly recommend it.

Nick and Karen are passionate about short term rentals. Both wanted to provide a superior, high quality short term rental experience. Their portfolio spans a broad range of overnight rental accommodations ranging from luxury cabins tailored to host large events to glamping tents located in the vicinity of national parks.
