MAMA BEAR RETREAT & "Bunkie" is a highly-rated, spacious, comfortable, private, luxurious, relaxing, newer, WHEELCHAIR-FRIENDLY property just minutes to the "heart" of Pigeon Forge and all the attractions!
This property backs up to 80 acres of woods and sits on over a half acre. The cabin boasts almost 3,000 square feet of interior space and 1,400 sq. feet of porches, deck, and patio.

The roads to the cabin are NOT scary like many drives up steep mountain roads to other cabins!

This property also has a SPECIAL AND UNIQUE AMENITY that many cabins only wish they had to offer their guests! Mama Bear Retreat has a "Bunkie" with over 250 square feet of pure enjoyment! The Bunkie can be used as an office, overflow sleeping quarters, virtual learning / schooling area, video arcade enjoyment center, movie "theater", arts and crafts area, a quite "get away place" and so much more!
Details and photos can be viewed on Facebook..... BABY BEAR GETAWAY. (Note: Bunkie access is over gravel and not accessible for most wheelchairs).

Hand-scraped hardwood floors and tongue & groove ceilings and walls throughout most of the MAMA BEAR RETREAT set the tone at this relaxing retreat. Guests can show off their culinary skills in a well-equipped kitchen with all stainless steel appliance including a French-door refrigerator (with filtered water on the door and an ice maker), microwave, smooth-top range, dishwasher, 12-cup carafe coffee maker, single K-cup coffee maker, small appliances and all the pots and pans and utensils needed to prepare just about any meal. The granite counter tops and Hickory cabins complete the ensemble and invite any gourmet to create to his or her heart’s content. Any "grill master" will also appreciate the Weber gas grill where he or she can prepare steaks, burgers, chicken, and more! The grill is just a few steps from the kitchen, on the grilling area of the rear porch that can be used even during inclement weather. In addition, there is also a "park-style" outdoor, charcoal grill with charcoal provided! Enjoy outdoor dining at a rustic table with 6 chairs on the SCREENED back porch located right off the kitchen or eat at the indoor dining area!

UPPER LEVEL:
The upper level has a spacious, private king suite with a private shower-bath, plus a nice reading loft / alcove area and a "work from home" area with a computer desk, chair, and monitor. Not many cabins have a 55" flat-screen, 4-K TV in a bedroom, or a deluxe memory foam mattress! Well, Mama Bear Retreat has these and more!

MAIN LEVEL:
Three reclining seats, two in a sectional sofa and one in the single chair makes the great room with a direct-vent, gas fireplace (available during cold months) with floor to ceiling stone and a high-vaulted ceiling quite inviting. This easy access, main level also has a well-equipped deluxe kitchen, dining area with table and chairs, bar stools, a wheelchair-friendly bedroom with private bath, another bedroom and bath, a laundry alcove with full-size washer and dryer, wide hallway and doors, two porches and a deck.
A 5-6 person hot tub is conveniently located on the main level in a SCREENED enclosed 50' x 12' rear porch. The porch has direct access to a "cabana bath" via a door directly into the bath from the porch!

LOWER LEVEL:
The lower level features a combo "games and sleeping" room where twin bunk-beds and two pull-out queen sofa beds provide sleeping for 6 guests. This area also has a direct-vent fireplace, a game/card table with chairs, and a foosball table. Guests of all ages can also enjoy a plethora of board games or relax while watching a 75" 4-k Smart TV. Down the hallway is a separate room with a pool table, plus a chess & checkers table.
There is also an adjacent bathroom with a small shower.
