Welcome to Country Bears Hall! We are a handicap accessible home in Wears Valley. We do not have steps to get in our home and provide a wider door frame to help accomdate wheel chairs and walkers! (We are not ADA approved) We pride ourselves in offering a hot tub, free wifi, and cable tv! Come enjoy a view off the 60 ft. front porch and relax in peace and quiet of the smokies. Our cabin is on a lot of just over an acre, so let the kids run through the yard while you enjoy the view! Bears have been known to be in our area and you could be one of the lucky ones to see them! We can accommodate up to 4 cars in our driveway. We offer a 3 bedroom with King size beds in each room, which are all on the main floor. We have a loft upstairs that has 2 twin size beds and a pool table. Enjoy the back deck that has a propane grill and a 6 person hot tub! On those cold winter nights you can enjoy the fireplace and sit together in the living room as a family that has seating for 9 people! Down the street we have a pond that is catch and release (fishing supplies not provided) and at the front of our subdivision is the Honeysuckle Pool where you can go enjoy with your family when its open! Our home is located within an HOA so you never have to worry about the neighborhood not being to your expectations! We look forward to you staying with us!

Fit our family needs very well. It was absolutely beautiful and extremely clean. Surrounding area was lovely and nicely secluded but not too far from things to do. Loved seeing bear in the backyard. Only needed a few things to make the stay just a bit better for a group of 6 adults. But overall, my favorite place to stay this far.

Perfect weekend getaway

This is now our favorite cabin and we’ve stayed in quite a few over the years! Perfect setup with plenty of seating. Super clean! Great location, close enough to all the things but far enough out to feel nature-y. We will definitely be returning!

Stunning well stocked cabin

We absolutely loved our stay in this cabin. It is beautiful, comfortable and well stocked. The decor is very tasteful with lots of seating and comforts of home. We had a few housekeeping issues upon check in (most likely forgotten by housekeeper since rest of cabin was very clean) but the manager was very quick to respond and offer a resolution. We didn't see any bears but we did see some wild turkeys in the front yard and enjoyed catching some bass in the nearby pond. We would definitely consider staying here again, hopefully with less rain!

We were extremely pleased when we arrived at the cabin to find it just as the VRBO listing described! Actually it was better! The spacious living area made it great for our family to enjoy the time together! We made great use of the kitchen island everyday preparing our meals. The hot tub was very nice! Thank you for the cleanliness and hospitality! We will be back!

Great great place to stay

This was our third year to stay here and plan on going back next year. Need I say more. The minute you pull in you start to relax. We have looked around in this area and other area and none compare to this fantastic place. The owner spared no expense in furnishing this home. Great great host !!!

Long weekend

Beautiful home in the mountains. While you do have some minor traffic around the property it’s very tranquil. Enjoyed the short drives to town, hiking trails and eateries. Hot tub after a long hike was greatly appreciated. Wonderful time!

Smoky Mountain Paradise!

My wife & I have rented many properties over the past 20 years of our travels to Hawaii, Mexico, Florida, Wyoming, North Carolina, etc., but the Country Bears Hall cabin in Sevierville, TN is by far the BEST property we've rented! This cabin is absolutely stunning! Everything from the beautiful rustic mountain design to all of the thoughtful amentities implemented by the owner ensures a totally enjoyable & memorable stay by you, your friends, loved ones, etc.!!

We will be back

We absolutely loved this place. It’s exactly as described in the photos. It’s far enough away from all the businesses, but less than 30 minutes from it all. We spent New Years weekend here and played lots of pool and spent time in the hot tub. I can see a trip back for us in the future.

Amazing Cabin!!!

Exactly as described. Super easy getting in and everything you need is there! Be ready for some curves getting there because it’s super curvy. 😁. I loved that the cabin is big enough that you’re not falling over each other. Most definitely plan on staying here again.

Exceeded our expectations

Pictures don't do this cabin justice. We stayed here for a baseball tournament with 2 families and had plenty of room. The cabin is much larger than it appears in the pictures. We enjoyed relaxing on the front porch, cooking in the kitchen, and playing board games at the dining room table. The host responded promptly with any questions we had. The location in Wears Valley was perfect for us. Would definitely stay again.

Great Cabin.

We had a great time. Location is a little far from all of the attractions and stuff. It’s about 25 minutes from the parkway. Got charged an excessive cleaning fee after leaving. So make sure to go beyond the check out list. Christmas tree was great.

Amazing Smokey Mountain Cabin Rental

We spent the week at this beautiful, spacious cabin in Wear Valley. The pictures don't do it justice. Everything was perfectly decorated and comfortable. We spent every morning on the front porch drinking our tea and enjoying each others company. Evenings were spent cooking and playing games with the family. We had a wonderful time. Our grandsons loved fishing in the pond. Our age group ranged from 4 years old to 80. Hopefully, we can visit again.

First VRBO experience and it was amazing.

This was our first time with a VRBO and it exceeded our expectations. The cabin was immaculate and has easy access. It’s far enough away from the hubbub to be peaceful but close enough that you can get to tourist attractions easily and quickly. The kitchen is relatively well stocked. (No whisk, no BBQ tools) No hot pads for the table. The porch is amazing! We loved to sit out there and relax after our adventures. This cabin is perfect for someone with disabilities as it is open and no steps. Carla (owner) is very responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend this VRBO!

BEAUTIFUL Cabin in Wears Valley!!

We've stayed at a LOT of cabins in Wears Valley. This one is probably one of the best, if not THE best. It being new is very helpful for that of course. But the small things... Slightly larger bedrooms so it doesn't seem super cramped (enough room for nightstands, etc). Walk in tile showers. Nice size kitchen and dining area. All the bedrooms on 1 level. NICELY stocked kitchen, including things like tupperwear for leftovers. There was a very minor issue the first day, but Carla (property owner) responded promptly, and handyman was on site within an hour (on Fathers day no less!!!). The house being pretty new still, there were a couple of truly minor issues that we let Carla know about, but NOTHING that would prevent us from returning!
