Awesome cabin in the woods!! We didn’t see any bears at the cabin but we spent a lot of time in town. The hot tub was amazing! Very private we will be back.

Great place. Very clean; easy check-in. Even though there are cabins all over the mountain, you really can't see any from the deck and so it manages to feel very private. We sat on the deck and enjoyed the trees every morning (you can't really see the mountains, but the wooded view is very pleasant) and got in the hot tub every night. Kitchen is nicely stocked. It's a long winding drive up to the place, but if you want a cabin in the mountains, that comes with the territory. Great place for our anniversary getaway and would be very comfortable for four.

thank you for staying with me. it for sure is nice for guests such as yourself that want to me off the busy main roads of Wiley Oakley and Ski Mountain road yet close to all the fun things be it in DT Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge or the Great Smokey Mountain National Park. I appreciate you reserving at Bears Among Us.

Bears Among Us was amazing & true to its name! The cabin was clean, roomy enough for all four of us, & had all of the needed amenities. We had bears visit us almost every single day, plus saw multiple other bears while driving to & from the cabin each day! We had such a memorable experience! We will be back & will be recommending Bears Among Us to others!!

We loved the cabin! It was quiet, off the main road (which was great!), and we enjoyed the hot rib in the evenings. I have already recommended this place to others and if we are headed back to Gatlinburg, I would definitely stay here again.

Loved the location and host was very good; Cleaners didn’t finish till 4:30 so slightly after that when we were able to get in; hot tub had certainly been cleaned as it was still very cool and unable to use till late. Would definitely stay again- lovely spot…

Thank you so much for staying with me. Yes if I only had a hot water hose as that tub is emptied and cleaned after every guest that visits. Usually my cleaning team is done before 4:00 but now and again when it is really busy or traffic they run a little behind and I so appreciate your patience with that. :).

Great Cabin!

Bears Among Us was a great place for our short getaway! It was as clean as you would expect a cabin in the mountains to be and the location was close to all we wanted to do at Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and the National Park. We would definitely stay there again!

House was clean and beautiful! Just as described… a bit off the beaten path but very close to the action of both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Hot tub on the deck was great after a long day of touristing. We saw bears every day of our stay!
