Lovely cabin!

Our third stay here. We love the home, love the area. The home is perfectly situated close to all the small towns, yet isolated enough to feel cozy. Great fireplace.

Off the beaten path, find cabin before sun sets, worth it.

Loved the cabin, not easy to get to, charged alot for cleaning but i noticed only surface cleaning was done no deep cleaning definitely no dusting. No baking pans available though, muffin pan definitely needs to be bought. Oh your site said check out was noon i think but note in fridge with list of do’s said 10 am check out. Loved back porch view. Def. foung again. Thankyou

Return stay

This was our 2nd stay at Bear Pause. Updated counters and appliances look good. Cabin is easy to get to and close to Maggie Valley/Waynesville area. Fireplace is nice on the cold mountain days. Bear pause will stay on our November trips to the area.

This cabin is perfect

We recently stayed here as a getaway to experience a bit of Fall. It was our second stay. We love the area, the nearness to small towns around us, as well as being close to Asheville. But the bonus is being so close yet far enough away to feel like we don't have to go anywhere else to enjoy the solitude this cabin provides. Additionally, we love being able to build a fire in the fireplace.

About the host

Hosted by WNC Mini Adventures

We love to escape to our Great Smokey Mountain cabin to get away from the hustle and bustle of our regular schedules as often as we can. We hope our guests enjoy our cabin as much as we do. We added our personal touches in the decor, giving it that authentic cabin feel that we fell in love with when we purchased the property.

Why they chose this property

Owners consider this their second home, a cozy well appointed mountain getaway cabin, not your average cabin rental.

What makes this property unique

Great central location to everything the area has to offer. Only 25 minutes to Asheville; 1 hour to Gatlinburg and about 40 minutes to the Cherokee reservation.
