ABOUT YOU
We're Mark and Amanda, Tennessee locals and the owners of GSM Family Vacations. We have two properties: Bear's Wilderness Lodge in Gatlinburg and Papaya Paradise in Destin. Amanda is a travel writer at VeraVise Outdoor Living, and between the two of us we've spent years exploring the Smokies — the trails, the hidden breakfast spots, the drives worth taking and the ones to skip. We're available Monday through Saturday 10am to 6pm EST and genuinely enjoy helping guests make the most of their time here. Ask us anything about the area.

Why they chose this property

We built Bear's Wilderness Lodge around one idea: a big family should be able to vacation together without anyone drawing the short straw on their bedroom. Every bed is a king. Every bathroom is full. The main-level bedroom means grandparents or guests with mobility needs aren't stuck navigating stairs. The lower-level bedroom puts the teenagers next to the game room and theater where they want to be anyway.
The location inside Gatlinburg city limits is something we're genuinely proud of. You're close to everything — Arts & Crafts District, Rocky Top Sports World, downtown, the national park — without the steep mountain roads that make some Gatlinburg cabins stressful to arrive at and leave. City water with no sulfur smell is a bonus most guests don't expect until they experience it.
We're small on purpose. It's just our two properties — this cabin and our beach house in Destin. That means when you message us, you get us.

What makes this property unique

Five things that set Bear's Wilderness Lodge apart from other 5-bedroom cabins in Gatlinburg:
Inside city limits with no steep mountain roads — straightforward arrival for any vehicle, any time of year
Every bedroom is a king — no one gets the bunk bed or the pull-out, five king beds and five full bathrooms
Main-level bedroom with nearby full bath — ideal for guests who prefer or require single-level living
City water — no sulfur smell, more common in hotels than cabins in this area
Direct owner contact — you're communicating with Mark and Amanda, not a ticketing system
