OH- MY- GOODNESS!! We LOVED LOVED LOVED this cabin! We brought a family of 4 and had PLENTY of room! The kitchen had everything I needed to cook meals for the family. The porch swing was so relaxing early in the mornings. The game room was fun (being that I had to "show" my family how to shoot pool!! Just kidding-I lost EVERY game lol). AND... Mrs. Deborah, the lady responsible for the upkeep of the cabin, was so super friendly. We got locked out of the cabin and she came right away to get us back in. AND...finally, the owner Mrs. Jane was super friendly as well. We absolutely had the MOST wonderful vacation EVER!

The cabin was fantastic! Very clean, and beautifully decorated. Great rates!! Handy to all the attractions while set back far enough for a peaceful swing on the porch and for soaking in the hot tub. Will be back on an annual basis and highly recommend!!!! Thank you! Cathy from WI (Go Pack Go!!)

My husband and I stayed at "Are we bear yet" for our 25th Wedding anniversary. It was the perfect cabin for us. Everything was clean and well-kept when we arrived. The cabin was even better than the pictures. We felt very much "by ourselves" and the surrounding cabins were all quite. We enjoyed all the ammenities the cabin offered: the pool table, the jacuzzi tub and we loved the hot tub, especially in the moonlight! The location was perfect too. We were secluded in our cabin, yet only mere minutes from all the downtown excitment. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to other couples and families. Enjoy it as we did!

Spring Break!!! Came to meet friends from Michigan. There were wild Turkey's walking down the road in front of the cabin. Our friends came over to cook out. They loved this place! We played pool etc. We loved the cabin. Your decor added so much charm. Friends stayed at another cabin a few miles down the road and although it was lovely, it did not hold a candle to "Are We Bear Yet?" We look forward to returning!!!

Guest: stellarkat (Gaston, SC)
Date of Stay: 04/01/11 Review Submitted: 04/12/11

We stayed the weekend at this cabin for a mini-honey moon after being married for several years. The cabin was clean and comfortable, but we did have several complaints. I contacted the owner via email after our stay and never received a reply. On our second night, we tried to use the jacuzzi tub, but there wasn't even enough hot water to fill the tub to the jets. We had been gone all day, so there should have been more than enough hot water to fill the tub to be able to use it. Also, the hot tub was like a luke warm bath. We'd set the temperature to above 100 that morning prior to heading out to Gatlinburg and by late that night, the temp of the hot tub was only 97 (it was 95 when we set it that morning). When you rent a cabin, you pay for amenities such as these and we were very disappointed that we did not get those and did not receive any response from the owner. Overall, the cabin was nice, but we could have stayed in a nice hotel room without a hot tub and jacuzzi for less than we paid for the cabin since we were unable to use them in the cabin.

Owner response:I am sorry that you had problems with the Hot Tub and or the Hot Water heater. We have the name and phone number of our cleaning and maintenance staff listed on the cover of our in-cabin reference book, on the refrigerator, our terms and conditions, at the bottom of our directions etc. All that you had to do is make one phone call and we would be out there to resolve the issue. If we are not notified until after departure that there is a problem with either the Hot Water heater, Hot Tub or any other amenity, we are not able to resolve the problem. We encourage all our guests to call if something is not operating properly. Our goal is to make all of our guests experience a 5 star stay. Good to hear that you found the cabin "Clean and Comfortable" and "Overall, the cabin was nice" Please don't hesitate to call us!

It was muddy from the melting snow, but it was worth it! Ate at Bubby Gump Shrimp, walked the strip. Had lots of fun. We have been to this cabin many times each year.

I stayed at this beautiful cabin in November for some much needed rest. I needed time to relax and do some soul searching. The cabin was great even the raccoon's that came to visit. Once I got used to the racket lol. The cabin's location was great close to Pigeon Forge, grocery stores, etc. The Catholic church was a blessing from heaven. The owners are great to work with. Had a few problems when I arrived but the service was excellent after the second call and a call the the owners. Would stay again and again. Hope to stay at another of their rentals this year.
