Thank you so much, Gabby! We are so glad to hear that you really enjoyed your stay at Bear Mountain and that everything looked just like the pictures -- that is always our goal and it means so much to hear that it delivered!

Thank you for your 10/10 review! We're glad that Bear Mountain provided the best stay for you. We can't wait to host you again next time you make your way to the Smokies!
The chalet is nestled at the top of the mountain away from the craziness and crowds. It’s a lovely escape after a day of crowds. It’s cozy and well cared for; you can’t ask for much more!

We- 2 adults and 2 kids- had a great time at Bear Mountain. The cabin was clean, the description and pictures were accurate, and check in and check out were a breeze. We also enjoyed using the clubhouse pools! We had a bear interrupt our dinner on the deck which is something we will remember for a long time! All in all a great vacation!

Nice but surrounded by other cabins. If you want a view then this is not perfect for you. This would be a perfect one if you just want to chill & relax and enjoy beautiful Gatlinburg town.High chances of bear sighting
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2023
You perfectly described what Bear Bottom is for, to relax and enjoy Gatlinburg and the mountains. We are glad that you enjoyed your time at Bear Mountain, and that you got the opportunity to see a bear!
