3,800 Sq Ft Luxury Cabin on Private Acre, Hot Tub, 2 Game Rooms, Sleeps 16
3,800 sq ft of designed-for-real-life luxury, tucked on a private wooded acre — 5 minutes from Gatlinburg, 6 from Pigeon Forge, and a world away from the noise.
This is the cabin you book when the trip actually matters. When you want the hot tub under string lights, the game room the kids never want to leave, and the kind of layout where 16 people can be together when they want to — and apart when they need to.

About the host
Hosted by Nikki and Zach
Hi, we’re Zach and Nikki! We poured our heart and soul into creating Black Bear Ridge, designing it with families and groups in mind so everyone can feel at home in the Smokies. Hosting is special to us because we love helping people make memories — whether it’s relaxing in the hot tub, playing games together, or exploring Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge just minutes away. We can’t wait to share this lodge with you and hope it becomes part of your family’s favorite traditions.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood because it offers the best of both worlds: privacy and convenience. Black Bear Ridge sits on a full acre, giving you space to relax without neighbors right on top of you, yet it’s only minutes from everything — 5 minutes to Gatlinburg, 6 minutes to Pigeon Forge, 8 minutes to Dollywood, and 10 minutes to the Smoky Mountain National Park. The roads are smooth and easy to drive (no steep mountain climbs), so getting here is simple for everyone. We love that our guests can enjoy a private, peaceful retreat while staying right in the heart of the Smokies.
What makes this property unique
Black Bear Ridge combines the charm of a classic Smoky Mountain cabin with the comfort of modern amenities. Unlike many rentals, it has two full game rooms with a PS5, arcades, pool table, foosball, and darts — giving kids and adults endless ways to play. Families love the thoughtful touches: a kid’s playhouse cabin, bunk spaces, and two stocked coffee bars for the grownups. The cabin sleeps up to 16 guests comfortably, making it perfect for multi-generational trips or group getaways. Best of all, it sits on smooth, easy-to-drive roads (no steep climbs) and is just minutes from Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, and the National Park. It’s the ideal mix of fun, relaxation, and unbeatable location.
