🏔️ Life's A Bear 🐻 Smoky Mountain Views, Fireplace, Pool Table + Hot Tub
Why You'll Love this Mountain Escape: * Ridge top view with a fifty mile sightline across the Smoky Mountains * Nearly 30 foot stone fireplace under cathedral ceilings * Game loft with a pool table, arcade machine, and dart board * Primary king suite with a two person jetted tub, plus a queen bedroom upstairs * Hot tub above, fire pit below, both facing the same view * Professionally managed with local support throughout your stay.
Fifty miles of the Smoky Mountains fall away past the deck rail, with Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge tucked into the valley below. Life's A Bear wraps a two story wall of glass around that view, so the fireplace and the mountains share the same room from sunrise on. This 1,440 square foot log cabin sleeps 4 across a main level primary suite and an upper level guest room, built for a couple or two couples after a private ridge top escape close to town.
Bed Setup: Primary Bedroom (main level): King Bed Guest Bedroom 1 (upper level): Queen Bed
Setting & Neighborhood: Set high on a private ridge just minutes from downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, this cabin trades a crowded resort strip for total quiet and an open Smoky Mountain view. The wraparound decks and top level hot tub all face the same sky, with dark, secluded nights once the sun goes down.
Disclaimers: Pets are not allowed at this cabin. This property is not available to adults under the age of 21.
Area Attractions: Ober Gatlinburg, the Arts and Crafts Community, and Anakeesta are all nearby in Gatlinburg for mountain adventure and local makers. Dollywood and Splash Country anchor the Pigeon Forge side, with The Island close by for dinner and the nightly light show.

The cabin was great with great views and amenities. Loved the balcony and the fire pit and the kids loved the jacuzzi and pool table. The place was conveniently located about 20-30 min to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge and 60 min drives to Cades Cove and whitewater rafting in the Pigeon River.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful stay with us and we are so glad you and your family loved all of the amenities Lifes A Bear has to offer. We hope you will visit us again soon!
Amazing views from mountains! It was decorated For Christmas on the inside which made the cabin even more enchanting. Could use a really good dusting and there were cob webs about, but was overall pretty clean.
