Owner's Profile
Why the Owner Chose Wears Valley
Tennessee is an awesome state with strong roots and beautiful people. We had vacationed there several times and looked into timeshares. We decided that a timeshare was not what we wanted after we stayed at one of the beautiful cabins located throughout the Smoky Mountain area.
We started checking out the area and decided on the serene, laid back area of Wears Valley because of the non-commercialization of the area and the closeness to get to everything.
When we first viewed "the cabin on Barkley" we fell in love with it. It was not and still isn't a luxury type of cabin. It was comfy, clean, spacious and a place we could see ourselves calling "home" at some point in our life.
We truly believe that we were meant to have this cabin, even though (for now) it is our second "home" because acquiring it was a breeze and the owners at that time were wonderful people building a new home 1/2 a mile away. The best part for them is that they built their new home modeled after the cabin they sold to us!
Travel to Bears Bungalow is as easy as pie to do. Paved roads and it is located less than a 1/4 mile from Highway 321 that runs from Pigeon Forge stop light #3 to Townsend.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
Quiet and safety is a definite benefit we have at the cabin.
One of our favorite rituals is that the day we arrive in town, we head to "Texas Roadhouse" for some of the best food anywhere (unfortunately we have none in South Florida).
Another one of our favorite things is eating at "Grandmother's Kitchen" which is walking distance from the cabin. They serve "GREAT" homemade food and all the people that work there are awesome!
Some of the waitresses know some great jokes that they share with you. When you walk in and sit down, they all make you feel like a local!
