Crazy Bear Cove is located about 35 minutes from Pigeon Forge, making it far enough away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to enjoy the attractions of the area. The drive is a beautiful one and you may even see a black bear with her cubs. Other attractions in the area include Clingman’s Dome (the highest point in TN) about 1.5 hours, Cades Cove about 1 hour and 45 minutes and various hiking trials which offer a varying degree of difficulty, some offering paved paths, and view of waterfalls.

This cabin is highly maintained and loaded with amenities. It is the perfect spot anytime of the year! The home is perfect for 2-3 families to share making it extremely affordable! You will make unforgettable memories at Crazy Bear Cove! You’ll enjoy it so much you will want to make this your yearly, home away from home! We are located in a fairly private area with retired couples around us. It is a very quiet neighborhood and the home is best suited for those who enjoy the same atmosphere.

******VERY IMPORTANT*****
THIS PROPERTY HAS SEASONAL WATER. WATER IS ACCESSIBLE AT THE COVE FROM THE END OF APRIL UNTIL MID SEPTEMBER. The property does offer a view of the lake (from the side of the property) for a couple months before and after the seasonal water.
This information is for water months at the Cove….
The Cove seems like your own private playground. Our dock is the only in the cove so there is no need to worry about other boat traffic. You can float, boat, fish, paddle and swim until your heart is content. We do offer three kayaks for your use. You will have your own floating dock with swim ladder and a private pier with comfortable Adirondack chairs to relax and chill! Summer water depth in the Cove is 10 to 15 feet deep. The walk down to the water is mostly stoned and in a zigzag pattern to assist with the steepness of the hill, however, this is a “walk” for some. Bring your boat or rent a boat from one of the local marinas.
