About this property

Brave Bear Cottage

Brave Bear is a new 700sqft Cottage equipped with a great living room and fireplace, full kitchen with appliances and dining, bathroom, and washer and dryer.

Upon entry, you are greeted with the living room with a fireplace, TV, pull-out couch, recliner, and coffee table. Large windows are located on two of the three walls of the living room.

Next to living room is a small cozy space with a table and four chairs to dine. The front of the Cottage is surrounded by windows to let in beautiful natural light and a wonderful view of through the hollow to the Smokies.

Directly in front of the dining area is the fully functioning kitchen, equipped with a bar and three stools, a dishwasher, stove and burners, coffee maker, refrigerator, silverware, pots, pans, knives, cooking utensils, cutting board, salt and pepper, oil, cups, coffee cups, bowls, and plates. Find all that you need to comfortably cook any meal!

Through the hall, you'll find a nook with shelving, a microwave, and cabinets to store your food and snacks! A few steps to the right is the bedroom with a cozy queen bed, two bedside tables with lamps, and a closet to store clothing and suitcases.

Exiting the bedroom to the right is the laundry room/utility closet. The small space provides additional storage for food, and a washer and dryer are available for use behind those doors! Directly across from the bedroom is the bathroom with a sink and cabinets, a mirror, toilet, and bathtub/shower.

The cottage is cleaned between every stay, and you are sure to have a freshly made bed with clean linens, the bathroom cabinets fully stocked with clean towels and hand rags.

*Construction progress is being made regularly at Sanctuary Hills.

A number key will be given to you the day of your scheduled arrival and you will enter it into the smart-lock on the front door.

Nice getaway.

The house was neat and well kept. Just the right size for a couple. The Host was responsive to messages. We had a nice stay. One morning we saw a couple of dear running through the field. The only negative would be that the home is about 30 minutes from town, but the stay was very relaxing.
