About this property

Lazy Bear Lodge: 6BR, Theater,Spa,Pool,Game room!

Put Family First! Come and make some memories at Lazy Bear Lodge :-)

Memories to last a lifetime are made here in the Great Smoky Mountains, in this luxury mountain cabin. Snuggle in front of a cozy fire or in the private hot tub. Relax on one of four decks, play pool or foosball, take a swim in the community pool or watch a movie in your very own private theater!

We're only a mile from the Pigeon Forge Parkway via good roads, and privately-owned and managed for that personal touch.

Lazy Bear Lodge is nestled in the foothills of the Smokies, less than a mile from the Pigeon Forge parkway. The rustic mountain atmosphere extends inside, where 3,000 square feet of living space filled with natural wood finishes, wood floors, and a classy warm ambiance welcomes you to your home-away-from-home. Enjoy complementary gourmet Coffee, Tea, and Hot Chocolate in the well-equipped kitchen, with all the comforts of home.

Step through the French doors and onto one of the three decks. Spend your days grilling steaks, enjoying a favorite cocktail, or soaking in the private hot tub while keeping an eye out for local wildlife! Bears, Raccoons and other critters are common in the area.

When you're ready to head inside, gather in front of the stone fireplace to keep nice and toasty warm. This home has everything you need to stay entertained, including flat-screen TVs in every room, a real home theater with theater-style seating and a massive 75" Theater TV, a Pool Table, and a Foosball table. EVERY ROOM in the house has a Smart TV with access to all the popular streaming channels such as Netflix, Hulu, Prime, AppleTV, Disney+ and many more (Note: Some channels require your own login credentials). We provide a PAID subscription to YouTubeTV which includes national networks such as ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, CNN as well as many live sports channels such as ESP1/2/3, Fox Sports, CBS Sports and much, much, more. The Living Room and Game Rooms also have DVD/Blu-ray players.

In the kitchen, you'll find stainless steel appliances and all the cooking necessities you expect at home. Whip up a feast for your loved ones and gather around the long wooden dining table to enjoy your meal. A washer and dryer, iron and ironing board, and a hairdryer are also included for your convenience, along with all necessary linens & towels, soaps & detergents -- other than shampoo which we consider a personal item.

And don't forget the pool and the basketball courts! The resort's community pool is only a short 500 ft walk from the cabin and is open 10am-10pm during the warm seasons. In the winter season, stay warm in the private hot tub! Nothing keeps the kids happy like a pool – when you can pry them away from the cabin's pool table, foosball table, and the massive home theater system, that is! Bring your X-Box or Playstation and connect it to the big TV and keep those kiddies entertained!

With Great Smoky Mountain National Park only a short 20-minute drive away, the adventures are endless! Pack your hiking boots and be sure to bring your camera, as some of the country's most remarkable mountain scenery is right at your fingertips. When the snow begins to fall, head over to Ober Gatlinburg Ski Area to spend the day cruising along the slopes, and then end your day at the Smoky Mountain Brewery for a taste of local craft beers before heading home.

Explore everything Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg have to offer. Whether it's a mountain hike, a causal walk, skiing through the Smoky Mountains, or a fun-filled visit to nearby Dollywood!

The cabin is privately owned and managed by me and my wife -- no Property Managers here! If you have a problem you call and I answer the phone personally, not some call center who-knows-where. If you need something, let us know what we can do to make your stay wonderful!

We are close to everything!

Our family had a wonderful stay. All of the beds were comfortable and there were plenty of bathrooms. There was plenty of room across the 3 levels for everyone to spread out and never feel crowded. The location was in the heart of Pigeon Forge with quick access to restaurants and activities. We’d definitely stay here again.

Lovely cabin, great place for our multiple family vacation. Well-appointed kitchen and supplies! Loved the location, cute neighborhood, close to the pool, very relaxing and yet, super close to the parkway and Pigeon Forge. Great location for our day trips to the Smokies, Gatlinburg, Dollywood, and more! Owners are wonderful, very quick response to our emails and texts both before and during our stay. We will cheerfully return!
Our family celebration!
Even the Smokies smile!

The cabin was clean, family friendly, spacious and had plenty of room for everyone - we had 9 adults, 2 teenagers and 1 toddler. The boys and men loved playing pool downstairs. The ladies enjoyed the hot tub. We all enjoyed the wrap around deck that overlooked a marvelous tree line. A new gas grill on the deck was my husband's favorite place to be. I did a lot of cooking in the kitchen that was nicely equipped with a variety of pots and pans and dish wear. The host was very easy to communicate with through the VRBO app; and we are looking forward to hopefully staying there again.

Perfect for our family reunion. Close to all attractions and the kitchen was well stocked. Though we didn’t really use it the game room with the very large TV and pool table would be great if kids came. Since our reunion included very senior adults they stayed on the main and upper floors except for me. I loved the bedroom downstairs as it was very quiet. The host was quick to respond when we noticed that there was only one dishwasher pod. We all gave the place 5 stars!

Perfect place for your vacation!

We had such an awesome time at the Lazy Bear Lodge! We were a group of three families with younger kids and they had so much fun running around the porch, playing in the basement and watching movies in real theater seats. Everything we wanted to do was so conveniently located, from Dollywood to the National Park and Gatlinburg. We would absolutely stay here again!

We had a family reunion with a few staying in a couple of hotels while the rest of us at the cabin. The cabin was in the perfect location for our situation. It is close to everything we wanted to do. Cabin is beautiful and we enjoyed staying there . We had a few minor issues such as the coffee pot wasn't clean but everything else was clean. We used both futons but only found linen for one. The hot tub didn't get hot, just warm ( maybe we didn't do something right). The jetted tub didn't work but again, maybe our fault. We enjoyed the nice size table. We would rate this a 4.6.
