About this property

Charming Bear Pause is close to everything and offers unlimited parking

This hidden gem is located walking distance to Pigeon Forge, but away from all the commotion. Nested up on a little hill, this cabin is perfect for those that want to be close to the entertainment and fun but want to take a "Bear Pause" at the end of the day. Bear Pause is a two-minute walk to the trolly stop, a one-minute drive to the strip and offers a deck that overlooks the forest. There is unlimited parking available upon request.

Bear Pause is a two-bedroom, two bath cabin that has a KING size bed in each room and the living room has a queen-size pull-out couch. You can make your way to the porch through a large sliding glass door that offers views overlooking the forest. This home is very well equipped, secluded and is a relaxing place to stay that is very close to everything Pigeon Forge has to offer.

This is such a wonderful property. It is very spacious with two bedrooms that have king size beds and plenty of room to move around in the bedrooms. The living space offers great space for relaxing . The kitchen is adequately supplied. The property is extremely clean and very well maintained. The property owner is quick to reply to your questions and is very friendly. If our travels take us back to the area this will be our 1st choice for a place to stay.

Perfect property for family getaway!

We loved our stay at Bear Pause! Everything was accurately described and perfect for our family! We didn’t get a chance to use the grill due to the chilly weather but we are sure next time we will utilize it! Our kids had a blast and we definitely plan to be back! Very close to everything but felt secluded! We even met some of the friendly neighbors!

Great stay

Property was exceptionally clean and quiet, tucked back in off the main road with lots of trees surrounding it but very close and convenient to the strip in Pigeon Forge. The pictures without leaves on the trees don’t do it any justice, it’s a really nice place that we will rent again.

Amazing!

This is such a beautiful home in such a great location! We slept 5 comfortably and the beds are so comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better location. It was only a few minutes away from the strip. This home was also the cleanest home we have ever stayed at on vacation!Thank you so much!!

About the host

Hosted by M & J

Host profile image
We have loved coming to the Smokey Mountains and Pigeon Forge since we were little. Having a cabin so close to the main "Strip" in Pigeon Forge was our dream. We enjoy the fun atmosphere of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, but need a place to relax and chill. This cabin offers exactly that. We are happy to share it with our guests when we are not there. Enjoy!

Why they chose this property

This property is so unique- it is surrounded by trees and and undeveloped nature, yet, it is walking distance to all of the entertainment. You will hardly find combination of best of both world.

What makes this property unique

Trolley stop is a minute walk from the cabin and it will take you few minutes to walk to the entertainment "strip" of Pigeon Forge. All that, while staying in a cabin surrounded by trees, and "wilderness"
