Simply the Best-High Mountain Lodge ** Great Rates-Views!!! **
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Black Bear Falls
After a two year search of the Gatlinburg area we kept coming back to Black Bear Falls, which is widely considered to be the premier log home community in Gatlinburg. Our search took us up many winding, sometimes scary roads and to some cabins that appeared to be barely hanging onto the side of a mountain. It was a great adventure! We wanted a beautiful cabin with breathtaking views, good roads (not too much adventure), nice club house with a heated pool, and all in a well maintained community. Black Bear Falls Log Home Community and the cabin we discovered there met and exceeded all of our expectations. High Mountain Lodge is convenient to all of the fun and excitement that Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge have to offer and yet lends itself to peace and quiet after a day of fun. We're close to the national park, hiking trails and many other outdoor activities.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
If you love great views both day and night High Mountain Lodge is the cabin for you. The huge covered decks provide the perfect place to enjoy the spectacular views, read a good book, or spend quality time with friends and family. Just picture yourself soaking in the hot tub under the stars - ah romance! The 6 flat screen TVs, Xbox 360, Play Station 3, pool table, surround sound system, and Texas Shuffleboard will keep everyone entertained. If you're in the mood for a good mystery just pick one from the extensive mystery collection. If you don't have time to finish it just return it when you visit us next time. For those of you who love to cook, the gourmet kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and granite, awaits you. The cocktail patio is the perfect place to grill out and watch the sun set. On those chilly winter nights just snuggle up in front of the stacked stone gas fireplace, all the warmth without the mess of wood and soot.

We stayed at this beautiful cabin in Ocober 2011, right at the peak of fall. We enjoyed our stay so much we cannot wait to return. The owners take pride in every detail. The beds were huge and comfortable. Comfort were a major concern, but be slept like winter bears. The kitchen is gorgous and neatly stocked. The views were so amazing, and access to the park is right up the road. We even drove the back way into North Carolina, to see the elk herds. It was very easy to access everything, and we appreciated the lovely hot tub after our long hikes. One day it rained, and we went to the aquarium, which was 5 minutes away. There is a game room with all the amenities for gamers. We had the best steak and burgers ever 4 minutes away at the Alamo Steakhouse. The owners were so easy to talk to and they even called to check on us, we really reccommend this cabin, for comfort and views, and the works. It is really a 5 star property. The pictures are great, but seeing the place in person was astonishing.

My family decided to go away for a Holiday weekend. A total of 3 families went along with us. The pictures and reviews of the cabin were very impressive, but we were even more amazed when we got there. It was beautiful and felt like home. We certainly could have stayed much longer. All the rooms were very nice with King Size beds in all 3, each room was on its on level giving you added privacy. The cabin is beautifully decorated, 1 of the nicer places we have stayed in Gatlinburg. The owners are great to work with and easily accessible, we would certainly recommend this cabin and we will definitely come back.

Family Birthday Celebration

My daughter and grandchildren all have a birthday the first couple of weeks of June. This year we decided to take a birthday trip to the mountains to celebrate. We were delighted when we arrived at High Mountain Lodge! The house is everything and then some. The views were wonderful from the porch each morning for coffee and each afternoon for cocktails. The children loved having the basement floor as their own private domain and didn't let one day go by without visiting the hot tub. We had a full day of activities each day we were there and High Mountain Lodge was a wonderful place to come home to each night. The kitchen was specatcular and equipped better than any rental I've ever stayed in. Even the two mornings it rained were awesome. It was great having the washer and dryer on site so we didn't have to take dirty clothes home. I highly recommend High Mountain Lodge for a memory filled, enjoyable vacation spot.

I would definitely recommend this property to others! It was very clean and the kitchen had everything you could possibly think of. Our children loved playing pool and PSIII. It was close to Gatlinburg and the entrance to the Smokey Mountain National Park. There was so much detail put into the decor. The owners were very easy to work with. We are looking forward to coming to Gatlinburg in the future and will book this property again! We felt like we were at home and were not ready to leave.

My family,friends and I just concluded our weeks stay at High Mountain Lodge, and no one is happy about it! No one wanted to leave! Not even the 14 year old girl - who had no one her age to "hang" with. We found the cabin delightful - PERFECT setting for our annual Christmas in July party. We found the cabin beautifully and comfortably decorated. The beds and linens were wonderful! Kitchen was fully stocked with high-end utensils and cookware - enough for us to prepare "Christmas" dinner. Even our "Christmas" trash was removed stealthily by "elves." We found covering the covered pool table perfect for spreading out craft supplies giving everyone space to decorate stockings for the deployed soldiers - what a fun time that was! The environment made even the men join in - and enjoy it! The view from the deck inspired this comment from a friend: "I always thought I had to go to the ocean to feel peaceful, but you can't get any more peaceful or closer to God than this." We were able to watch the fireworks from the deck, which allowed us to avoid the crowds (although we did go downtown for the midnight parade on the 3rd!). We enjoyed breakfasts on the picnic table on the deck. We rocked in the rocking chairs in the evenings - and weren't consumed by mosquitoes. We soaked in the hot tub - which was immaculately clean. In fact, the entire property was immaculate. Lynn was a joy to deal with. She made herself available 24/7 for questions or concerns from the moment I expressed my interest in renting. She was amazingly prompt with any communications, and very polite and personable. It has been our plan to go different places each year for our "party," but the votes are already being cast: High Mountain Lodge is a firm forerunner for next year! The memories created at High Mountain Lodge were priceless. Thank you, Lynn, for everything. You (and HML) are the greatest!

My husband, myself and 2 other couples spent a relaxing four days at High Mountain Lodge in May. The lodge was clean, well equipped and so comfortable. We especially loved the porches with their mountain views. The photos were very true to the lodge Black Bear Falls is a terrific location for all you can do in Gatlinburg. The area is also very quiet, if you just want to kick back and relax. We all agreed that we would pick this lodge the next time we visit Gatlinburg. I have mentioned it to some of my friends.

The cabin was very nice to stay at, we enjoyed every part of it the hot tub, pool table, and texas shuffle board. The view was great day and night, We cooked all our meals there and also used the grill. there was plenty of dishes and pots and pans to have home cooked meals. We also loved the big 60 in tv in the living room and nice to have the tv's in the bedrooms when you wanted to get away. I also loved the swing on the lower level wished it was on the first level it was very comfortable. Hope to come back.
