About this property
Perfect Family Friendly Cabin w/ privacy/arcade games/yard space in Townsend, TN
Welcome to Bear Rock Cabin! We offer an incredibly unique setting nestled in the Great Smoky Mountains in Townsend, TN! We are a short 10-minute drive to the entrance of the park and the heart of our quaint town of Townsend.
The cabin is surrounded in the woods offering tons of privacy for your stay and plenty of space in the yard for the kids to play. We can easily accommodate those traveling with a pull behind motorcycle trailer.
Walk up the steps to the front porch and sit for a bit on the old church pew that dates to the 1950's. The church pew came from a small country church pastored by the cabin owner’s grandfather. While relaxing on the porch, take in those unique and big bold rocks on the property that helped inspire the name of this adorable and cozy cabin.
This cabin was built by a direct descendant of the Sparks family from Cades Cove (one of the many families that comprised the old Cades Cove community prior to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park acquisition). The cabin owners have captured a variety of unique and interesting decor and placed throughout the cabin, and we are excited for you to reminisce about the park history with us! Several of the original postcards date back to the 1930's.
Enter in the front door to find an open concept living/dining/kitchen area. The living room is centered around a gorgeous stone wood burning fireplace that promises to deliver pure relaxation - Smoky Mountain Style! A large smart TV is positioned in the living room to allow you to enjoy watching from the living room or dining room. The dining room offers a large table with plenty of extra seating available for family meals or game night! The kitchen provides full size appliances, microwave, drip style coffee pot and dishes/utensils/cookware for preparing meals.
The bedroom on the main floor offers a king-size bed and a private desk area for those that need to check in at work. The large bathroom on the main floor houses the full-size washer and dryer and a tub/shower combo.
Going upstairs you will find an oversized sleeping loft with a King Size bed, a large smart TV and two arcade games. Additionally, we offer several board and card games for your enjoyment. The private second bedroom upstairs has a king-size bed and large smart TV. The upstairs bathroom has a large jetted soaking bathtub.
You can enter the oversized covered back deck out the dining room doors and enjoy nature and peace and quiet resting in one of our rocking chairs. We do have a dining table and chairs on the deck as well to expand those fabulous family meals.
Bear Rock Cabin is new to the overnight rental market as of February 2024 and we cannot wait for you to be one of the first families to come stay with us and experience the charm and comfort of this rustic cabin in the woods!

About the host

Hi!
My name is Jo Carpenter, and I am so happy to meet you! I have been managing properties since 2015 and absolutely love it and my customers! I sorta stumbled into this profession after leaving "corporate America" and venturing out into the unknown with my wonderful husband and business partner - but I must say I wouldn't trade it for a minute! A good day for me is a satisfied and happy guest! A great day for me is a return guest! I will do anything I possibly can to help you make your stay with us one for the memory books! If you are celebrating something special - please reach out and let me know how I can help you make it fabulous!
I want to earn your business and your trust. I am local and very responsive - I can be reached anytime by phone/text/email or the VRBO/Airbnb app. I am a short 20-minute drive to the cabin and I am typically in the area every single day. I hope you have an incredible stay with us and I look forward to hearing how much you loved the cabin. Please sign our guest book for our owners as they LOVE reading all about your exciting adventures and your time here at the cabin. Also, if you don’t mind, please leave us a review via the platform you booked to help us continue to be recognized as a wonderful place to stay in Townsend.
Have fun!
