Short stop in Gatlinburg

A few days in the mountains before our next stop, the property was away from the craziness of Gatlinburg. Nice and quiet, and a short drive to Smoky Mountains for some hiking.

Wonderful and Convenient

We really enjoyed our stay. It was wonderful being so close to Ober and being able to take the tram to Gatlinburg. We got to see bears many times which was very exciting. The property was very comfortable and homey.

Clean, quiet place

The condo was clean and very quiet. We hardly saw another person while we were there. It’s super easy access to Ober Gatlinburg (you could walk) and easy to get to Gatlinburg and the national park. We loved our stay.

For a large family, this option was cheaper than multiple rooms in a hotel. The condo was clean. It was easy to communicate with the property manager.

Hiking and bear siting

Great spot to get away from the craziness of town but close enough to easily access Gatlinburg and hiking, perfectly clean and greatly decorated. We took a wrong turn up near our chalet one morning and ended up crossing paths with a good sized bear.

They need explain what the name of the condo are Elerweis. Also had trouble getting the door opened as we were not told that you had to hold down a lever and a box would open with a key.

Perfect place for a short stay

Everything was great! All amenities were provided. Place was easy to get into. Only problem we had was with the recliner chair, it’s a bit off and if you lean back too far it won’t catch and you will tip over, my step father slept in it and it flipped over and almost hurt him. Other than that everything else was great! Thanks so a clean fun stay!

Our stay at Bearly Ober

It was a cute condo. I do wish there were more chairs at the table and living area seating. It advertises that it accommodates 6, but there’s not enough furniture for six to sit at the dining table or together in the living room.

A Beary Great Time!

Our stay at Beary Ober was great! The unit was exceptionally clean and well stocked. This is an older unit however, it is very spacious and parts of it have been nicely redone. We saw a couple of large bears passing through the parking lot when we arrived which made our day. The pool area was fantastic and close. Property management responded promptly to all of my questions however phone reception was in and out. We would definitely recommend and would love to stay here again.

Bearly Ober

Well needed vacation in a nice quiet relaxing condo. We stayed 2 weeks and in the middle of our stay we drove to Nashville and stayed there for 3 days and came back to our condo easy drive not even 4hrs from Gatlinburg. We did see 2 🐻 bears not far from the condo which last year i stayed here 1 week in July a saw one on the back wall of the condo. Its also a 15/20 minute drive to downtown Gatlinburg and also Pigeon Forge so it makes it great location.
