The private deck has a stargazing hot tub and outdoor seating, and inside there’s a cozy reading nook. Large windows fill the space with light, the kitchen is fully equipped, and the bathrooms include a rainfall shower and jetted tub. It feels tucked away in nature, but it’s still just a short drive to Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, Gatlinburg, and the national park. Bear Paw Lodge features high cathedral ceilings and large windows that frame peaceful views of trees and distant mountains. From the moment you walk in, there’s a sense of calm and comfort. Located in the Sky Harbor neighborhood between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, it’s just a short drive to both towns and the Great Smoky Mountains trailheads, a perfect setting for a romantic escape or a quiet family getaway.&nbsp;

Hidden Gem Near It All: Bear Paw Lodge

I don't have the words to describe this experience. I have wanted to rent a "cabin in the woods" for a while, and this place did not disappoint. It was "remote" enough to make allow us to enjoy the beauty and privacy of a mountain retreat, but it is close enough to restaurants, shopping, hiking, and a ton of other activities so you can enjoy the best of both worlds. The cabin is very clean and cozy. I couldn't keep my companion out of the game room. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. We were even visited by a few of the wildlife residents. It was truly an experience!!Our host, Ryan, was responsive and helpful. He even checked on us after we experienced an earthquake while we were there. I would highly recommend this cabin. I'll definitely look to book here next time we visit.

This place did not disappoint!

Honestly if I could rate Ryan and his place above 5 stars I would. He went above and beyond to ensure that my family and I had the perfect cabin vacation. I have literally zero regrets about booking this wonderful cabin from this gracious host. I hope I get the opportunity to book this again.
