About this property

Modern Rustic Apartment Across from National Park!

Smoky Bear Lodge is a renovated four unit boutique lodge directly across from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Each room is private with no shared spaces. We are located on US-321, which leads directly into downtown Gatlinburg (15-20 min). The Maddron Bald National Park trail is 1 mile from the lodge, and leads to the Appalachian Trail. The lodge is 10 minutes from Cosby Campground - the starting point for many park trails. We welcome dogs, and they MUST BE registered when booking.

*Floorplan and Amenities*

This unit is approximately 485 sq ft, with a luxurious Stearns & Foster king size mattress. All furniture is custom made from wood. Enjoy the 75" smart HDTV which is connected to xfinity cable and has the ability to connect to any of your streaming services. There is also a desk you may use.

This unit has a bathroom including a shower and a small sink. We provide all bath towels, hand towels, washcloths, tissues, toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, and a hairdryer.

The kitchen is equipped with a microwave, two-slice toaster, Keurig coffee maker, two-burner hot plate, and a full size refrigerator. We provide all necessary cooking implements, including silverware, utensils, pots/pans, bowls, plates, cups, and mugs. There is a kitchen table with seating for two.

*Outdoor Space*

You will have a large patio with a two-seat bench in the front of the lodge. You may also access the picnic area near the maintenance cabin, walk the grounds, or use the fenced in backyard.

*Location*

We are located on highway US-321. This is a convenient location with direct access to Gatlinburg, national park trails, and stores. We have added resort-grade soundproofing insulation and drywall between all units.

Visit Donna Jo's Market and Subway across the street, Dollar General next door, or the Tennessee Readiness camping store across the street for convenient access to food and supplies.

Perfect spot for a weekend trip!

The unit was very clean and cutely decorated! The bed and towels were soft and cozy, and the kitchen had anything you might need. The bathroom sink was tiny but very manageable if you’re used to small paces. The location was conveniently located near Gatlinburg and the national park but quiet enough to get good rest after a busy day! I would absolutely enjoy staying here again!

Nice little studio!

This little studio was very nice and perfect for our weekend anniversary trip. It was clean, cozy, and tastefully decorated. Check in and out was easy. It was affordably priced and didn't have the huge fees alot of places have. It was convenient to gatlinburg without being right in the middle of the gatlinburg traffic and busy-ness. We would definitely stay again. The only small negative I could find is the car noise from the road it is on. The owner has taken steps to insulate it from the sounds so even that wasn't that bad. Excellent place to stay! Thanks a bunch!

Very clean.

Bathroom is so small it’s uncomfortable. A huge chore to shower, water would go out into floor and rug stayed soaked the entire time we were there. A lot of wasted space on the right end of room. No where to sit and watch tv except in bed! No ice tray, no dish drainer, no dish rag to wash dishes or clean counter, just a sponge. The furniture and tv were excellent ! Even tho on a busy highway, it was quiet. Easy to book, easy to check in and out.

Nice, but…

So much space except for the bathroom. The shower was way too small, especially for a 6’3” 250 pound man! The bathroom sink was ridiculous! I couldn’t even wash my hands without getting water everywhere! Otherwise, the cabin was nice, just seemed that there was a lot of wasted space that could have been used to make the bathroom bigger!

Very clean and comfortable. Conveniently located to tourist attractions, but not in the middle of the hustle, bustle, and traffic. Even the dog enjoyed the stay!

Adult Vacation

The property was perfect for my husband and I. We enjoyed being close to all the big attractions yet far enough away to enjoy the peace of nature. The place was clean, easy access, and everything we needed for our stay.
