Going to the Smoky Mountains is such a fun trip...but what is NOT fun is constantly being stuck in the always-present, very slow traffic jams going to & from a rental cabin. Old Bears Lodge is located at the Pigeon Forge city limits, right off the main road, with no scary, steep mountain roads. With all the peacefulness & privacy of nature. It is close to all the fun activities, grocery stores, outlet malls & more. This convenient location will keep you out of most of the heavy, frustrating traffic, but so close to all the fun activities, grocery stores, outlet malls, theaters & Convention Center.
You will feel right at home in this beautiful, cozy 2-bedroom-2-bath custom-built log cabin with luxurious furnishings. The bear-themed living room has a huge stone fireplace with remote-operated logs that can be used year-round, for heat or a romantic ambiance. There is a sofa sleeper that makes it into a queen bed for extra sleeping space for kids & a matching loveseat. The living room has a 55” TV, ROKU-DVD player, a large DVD library & ceiling fan.
Kids will love having their own private space while playing or sleeping in the "SECRET BEAR'S LOFT PLAYROOM". There is a twin bed & games there. The steps at the top are gated for safety.
Each bedroom has a comfortable king log bed, TVs with Roku, private full baths with tub/shower combination & large vanity space that is inside each bedroom. Both bedrooms have large closets & ceiling fans & are separated by the large living room, offering added privacy.
A fully equipped kitchen has upgraded stainless-steel appliances that include a range, microwave, dishwasher & refrigerator w/ icemaker & plenty of cookware & dishes to prepare meals. There is a toaster, blender, slow-cooker, George Foreman grill, Keurig & regular coffee maker, and a large 6-person dining table for stay-at-home meals.
The private sunporch just off the kitchen has a year-round 4-person hot tub for relaxation or soaking sore muscles from a long day of shopping & fun area activities, any time or in any kind of weather. No steps are going to the private backyard from the sunroom. There is a gas grill on the back patio. Pets or kids can visit & explore the private wooded backyard.
The covered & gated front porch with 2 ceiling fans has rocking chairs & a large porch swing for relaxing or afternoon naps in any kind of weather, while enjoying the peaceful sounds of nature all around, & kids & pets will be safe.
The paved driveway is just off a good main flat road & has parking spaces for 2 vehicles & a handrail that leads from the driveway to the steps of the deck.

About the host
Hosted by Geri
I live in Nashville & have been going to the Great Smoky Mountains all of my life. It all started when my Daddy would take the whole family there every year. I loved it then & I still love it now. The Smoky Mountains have so many wonderful memories of my childhood & I never get tired of going there. These days, my trips are with my Great Pyrenees, Buddy. His favorite thing to do is to layout on the deck and watch for bears that come to visit.

Why they chose this property
My love of mountain cabins began when I bought my first cabin called the Chocolate Moose in 2007. Over the years, I learned there was a real need for cabins that could be accessed without traveling on any mountain roads. Old Bears Lodge cabinis perfect for that. There are absolutely NO mountain roads to travel & the location is super convenient when you want to visit all the wonderful area attractions, outlet malls & restaurants in Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg. Also, it is conveniently located to I40 just a half-mile from Soaky Mountain Water Park, the newest area water park that consists of 50 acres of fun-filled activities for the entire family and The Wilderness Water Park.
What makes this property unique
There are NO white-knuckle-scary-mountain roads to travel going to Old Bears Lodge cabin. It is very convenient to I40, it is located close to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg activities. It is on a very quiet street just off of the main road at Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg.
This adorable bear-fun-filled cozy log cabin is ONE level 2 bedroom, 2 bath log cabin.
Old Bears Lodge has 2 king bedrooms, one bedroom is on the north end of the cabin & the other bedroom is on the south end of the cabin, offering maximum privacy. Each bedroom has its own full bath inside its bedroom for complete privacy from the rest of the cabin.
