Escape to Running Bear, a beautifully updated 4-bedroom mountain retreat in Smoky Cove Resort, conveniently located less than 6 miles from The Island in Pigeon Forge.
Perfect for families and groups traveling together, Running Bear features four king suites, each with its own private en-suite full bathroom, plus two additional half bathrooms for added convenience. The cabin accommodates up to 12 guests, with additional sleeping options including two queen sleeper sofas and three single chair sleepers throughout the home.
Inside, Running Bear blends warm Smoky Mountain character with a modern mountain design and contemporary touches. Gather together in the spacious living room around the gas fireplace, start your morning at the dedicated coffee bar, or wind down in the evening at the cabin's cocktail station.
One of Running Bear's most unique features is its dedicated spaceship-inspired theater room. Step inside and settle in for movie night in a space designed to make you feel like you've boarded your own private spacecraft. Complete the experience with the cabin's popcorn machine and popcorn station, with popcorn provided for guests to enjoy during their stay.
For even more entertainment, head to the game room featuring a pool table, arcade games, a second gas fireplace, and plenty of space for everyone to hang out and have fun together.
Outside, enjoy covered decks on both levels, beautiful Smoky Mountain surroundings, and plenty of room to relax. Soak in the private hot tub, gather around the outdoor wood-burning fireplace, or simply unwind on the deck after a day exploring Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Great Smoky Mountains.
Guests also have access to Smoky Cove Resort amenities, including a seasonal swimming pool, horseshoes, and picnic area.
