Tucked into the woods along West Prong Bird Creek, 'Black Bear Retreat' is a Gatlinburg vacation rental where the top priority is unwinding. Spread out in the open living space, challenge the crew to pool, and soak in the peaceful wooded surroundings from the private deck.

    5/5

    No issues with anything and everything was as advertised. Perfect distance from pigeon forge and Gatlinburg. Pet friendly and plenty of room to walk the dogs.

    Kevin; so glad to hear that you and your wife had a delightful experience. Please come and visit us again. We have kicked around having a grill, the main concern is that they can be "bear magnets". But, we will think on it. Again Thank you for staying at Black Bear Retreat.

  • 5/5

    We had the most enjoyable stay. It was very clean, well stocked with essentials and extremely quiet. Even though there was no WiFi and the TV was spotty, we were able to unplug and relax. We saw a couple bears. One even came to the back door to take a peak. I would definitely recommend this cabin and we look forward to staying again.

    Thank You for staying with us, we try to make the home as "homey" as possible. We know the WIFI and T.V. are not the best but we hope the chance to "unplug" makes up for the inconvenience. Glad you were able to see some of the wildlife.

  • Quiet and Secluded!

    5/5

    This was our first stay at Bear Den. We absolutely love this property! Quiet, clean, and well stocked with spices and everything you need for your stay. Will be staying again!!! Close to all the shops, but far enough for the peace and quiet you'd want from the mountains. 🖤

    We are so excited that you enjoyed your stay, and that you had a chance to witness nature. Yes the T.V. is not the best it does come and go. We are working on trying to improve the reception. Thank you for staying with us and please come on back again.

  • Great stay in a great location

    5/5

    Well kept home, the pool table was a big hit with all of us. Gracious with supplies for the place. Overall, great expectations.
