The Funky Bear was lovely! Great location. You can be in Gatlinburg in about 5 minutes or take the bypass out to Pigeon Forge. The host, Zack, was great in communication. We enjoyed the entire cabin, especially the games and movie rooms downstairs. The cabin decorated for Christmas was the perfect touch to kick off the holiday season!

The property was amazing. The service was top notch too. We had to ask a couple questions and they responded immediately. We had a blast and made great core memories. We were there with our family ranging from mid 70s to 2 years old and it was perfect for everyone. We will definitely be back!

Excellent place, location is perfect between Glatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge. Home is beautiful the views are exactly what you want in the smoky mountains. Could not recommend this place more. Home is exactly as described in the photos. We had a great stay here with plenty of room for all 8 of us with room to spare. Highly recommend if you’re staying in this area. We even saw a bear one morning which was a highlight of our trip!

Absolutely fantastic property - highly, highly recommend! Cabin has a very thoughtful layout that was ideal for 4 couples and up to 4 kids. Saw at least one bear every day. Location was excellent - less than 10 minutes from both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Up in the mountains just enough for spectacular views, but not so far that is was painstaking to get to and from. Property is very well maintained.

A perfect mountain getaway

The Funky Bear Lodge is a beautiful home in a great, accessible location with stunning views and easy access to downtown. The check-in process was seamless, and Zack was incredibly helpful, providing us with great recommendations for our stay. Each bedroom was spacious and featured a fully equipped bathroom with plenty of towels. The kitchen was spotless and had everything we needed, and the furniture throughout the home was super comfortable. We especially loved the game room, relaxing in the hot tub, and the amazing movie theater—it really made our stay special. I highly recommend this home for anyone looking for a fun and comfortable place to stay!
