Bear Paw Bridge is our personal family owned vacation retreat — a home we've poured care into and love sharing with guests like you. To keep it that way, all bookings require a signed renter agreement within 24 hours of booking, sent via link, to confirm your reservation. A minimum age 25 to book, driver's license copy, matching profile photo and name, full guest list details, and a $200 security deposit hold are required. Guests must meet all of our stated booking and house requirements, and refunds will not be provided for broken house rules or bookings that do not meet these requirements. For same-day last-minute bookings, 4pm check-in cannot be guaranteed and will depend on the cabin's readiness, though we'll always do our best to get guests in as soon as possible.

We keep the cabin in great shape and items may occasionally be refreshed or updated between stays. We maintain everything to the highest standard, but like any home, occasional and unpredictable issues can arise with appliances, utilities, or systems, and we can't offer refunds for circumstances outside our control. Bear Paw Bridge is located in a wooded natural setting with wildlife, so seasonal bugs, spiders, webbing, and some dust in areas of the cabin may be present despite regular pest control and maintenance. If anything ever comes up during your stay, just reach out and we'll do everything we can to make it right. For the safety of our guests and our home, a security camera with audio/video capabilities is installed on the exterior near the driveway and front porch of the property.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Beautiful property that had everything we needed for our stay. We particularly enjoyed the private and peaceful setting. Rooms were large, clean, and comfortable. The coffee bar was perfect for our varying tastes, and the hot tub was very relaxing. The host was pleasant, accommodating, and attentive. We even had a visit from a mama bear and her three cubs. Would stay here again!

The cabin was gorgeous and Spacious. Everything we needed for a long comfortable stay was available. Close to downtown and all the stores you could possibly imagine but also far enough away from everything that is quiet and relaxing. The host was very helpful and very attentive. Highly recommended!

House and views were fantastic. Loved the hot tub. We got to see a bear walk across the bridge and up on the deck one day when returning from Pigeon Forge. Great location, close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. All activities we did were within a 30 minute drive. Neil is a great host, he checked in a couple of times during our stay to make sure everything was going well and that we hadn't had any problems.We absolutely loved this cabin and we would stay again in a heartbeat!

The cabin is absolutely beautiful! Everything was clean, comfortable, and perfect for our stay. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed to cook and having the gas grill was a great bonus. The beds and furniture were very comfortable, too!We cooked out, made s’mores around the fire and had such a relaxing time. The highlight was seeing bears! Our first bear visit happened while we were sitting on the porch and it was playing under the bridge right in front of us! Then the next morning as we were getting ready to leave, a bear started making its way across the walkway toward the cabin. We turned around and went back inside while he checked things out before eventually wandering off.We had an absolutely amazing visit and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will definitely be back!

Neil was great, allowed us to easily change our booking dates, quick to response, and seems like a genuinely nice guy! We enjoyed our stay, the drive up the mountain was a bit more than we had anticipated and with some rain we actually had spinning tires getting up to the cabin at some points. Otherwise, middle of nowhere, silence and minimal traffic! It was a peaceful stay and I dont believe we had any issues while we were there. Even had a mama bear and her cubs up on the porch at one point! Neat experience and I see they have some other properties I would likely want to check out next time!
