About this property
Premium Cabin retreat with fantastic views of the Great Smoky Mountains
Sleepy Bear Den is a traditional log cabin, comfortably appointed, that is situated on the edge of the Great Smoky Mountains in the Sherwood Forest Resort of Pigeon Forge. This newly purchased and refurnished cabin has a 180 degrees of awe inspiring views of the Smokies, including the famous 6,593 ft. Mt. Le Conte. We purchased this cabin for the views and its location. It is 10 minutes from downtown Pigeon Forge, 15 minutes from Gatlinburg, 15 minutes to Dollywood and 12 minutes from the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It is quiet and relaxing back in the hills and mountains, while you can be back on the busy Parkway in 10 minutes.
Our approach in setting up our cabin was to start fresh and refurnish 90% of the entire cabin. Our goal was to create a peaceful mountain retreat where families or couples could escape the chaos of our modern lives, enjoy the splendid tranquility and restorative beauty of the Smokies, all the while staying connected with the outside world and catching sporting events on TV. Wildlife abounds in our mountain location with black bears, deer, raccoons, gray squirrels and lots of birds found throughout the neighborhood.
The two story cabin has 8 rooms, comfortably sleeps 6 and has a wrap-around deck. There are two King size bedrooms -- one on each level -- and two full bathrooms on each level (upstairs a shower and downstairs a tub/shower combo). The upstairs bedroom has the bathroom en-suite. The dining room and two story great room on the main level overlook the Great Smoky Mountains. The kitchen is fully stocked and has granite countertops with stainless steel appliances. There is a large stone gas fireplace in the great room, with a second fireplace in the upstairs bedroom suite. The full-size washer/dryer are located on the main level. The upstairs loft has window views overlooking the Smokies and contains a EZ-Lounger Queen bed. The traditional log cabin has solid yellow pine flooring, walls, and ceilings throughout.
Sleepy Bear Den has the following amenities:
-- Privacy and location, the cabin overlooks the Great Smoky Mountains, so your views from the cabin and surrounding deck are of trees and mountains. Other than a few neighboring cabins, there is no light pollution at night and stunningly beautiful sunrises over the mountains.

About the host
Hosted by Scott Bone
I have been brining my family to the Great Smoky Mountains for the last decade. These escapes have enabled us to build lasting memories and take a break from our busy day-to-day lifestyle. The Smokies are magical in the sense that you can hike a trail to a waterfall in the morning, enjoy a great BBQ lunch, spend the afternoon at Dollywood, and watch the stars come out at night. (minimal light pollution in the mountains)
Why they chose this property
Sleepy Bear Den is a traditional log cabin located right on the edge of the Great Smoky Mountains. We have unobstructed 180 degree views of several ridges of the Smokies, including the famous 6,593 ft. Mt. Le Conte. Our cabin views show off slow moving mountain mists, gorgeous sun rises, stunning fall foliage, and chilling winter snows. In this peaceful retreat we often see wildlife -- birds, squirrels, raccoons, deer and black bears. It varies over the year, but the cycle of life always continues in the mountains.
What makes this property unique
We purchased this traditional log cabin for it's ideal mountain side location. It is quiet with stunning mountain views and provides a comfortable space -- including a two story Living Room with gas fireplace -- to make lasting memories with family and friends. Sleepy Bear Den is set back 10 mins through a canyon and up a mountain from the hustle of the downtown Pigeon Forge Parkway. We are located 12 minutes from the main Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrance, 15 mins to Dollywood, and 15 mins to Gatlinburg. We have found it an ideal place to relax and recharge, and invite you to join us and do the same.
