Everything about our stay in this Gatlinburg cabin was fantastic. We have stayed in a number of different cabins in the Ski Mountain area and this one easily is a favorite. We appreciated great communication from the host and easy-to-follow procedures. I liked that our family of four could have plenty of space to longer and relax. The updates to this cabin make for a nice experience. All the little details added up—from having plenty of towels and cookware to having a variety of entertainment options available. The dining area was also a favorite — spacious and could easily seat all of us. We’ve been in a number of cabins in this area where small dining tables are crammed in tight areas. All that to say - thankful for this stay and we’d happily book it again.
We loved the open feeling of the space and beautiful updates.

Great Place to Stay!

We stayed for a week and everything was great about the house. Size was perfect, clean, kitchen was well stocked and so on. We saw a bear on the property on our first day! Access to the pools, Ober Moutain, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge was a plus - although driving the hills could be scary at times .Only thing I didn’t realize was that all the bedrooms were in the basement. My mom was supposed to come with us and she was unable to make it. If she had, it would have been a problem getting up/down stairs. It was a great place and we would stay there again!

Family Trip

This was a great location. In the past we stayed at a property that had a daunting driveway, this was the easiest driveway to get in and out of! We traveled with a 3 yr old and 2 yr old, I was so pleased to see that the property provided a baby gate for the stairs and a safe balcony that only had access from inside the house. This property exceeded all expectations and was just as pictured.

Excellent rental experience!

We had a great stay at this property while visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Being able to use a door code to check in and out was incredibly convenient, and the location had great access to both Gatlinburg and the park. My kids loved all the video games and the hot tub. We will definitely return to this rental if we visit the area again!

Great stay!

Stayed 4 nights near end of May 2022. Liked location - very easy access to GSM National Park for hiking and my husband and I drove down and parked at Galinburg Trail head (maybe a 4 min drive) early most mornings and ran along the river out to the Visitor Center. Cabin was well equipped, very good communication from the owner and she left a nice welcome bag to get our stay started. Would stay here again.

Awesome Trip!

I came here with a group of nine, and we absolutely loved it! The views from the porch are awesome (we saw two bears!), the house is absolutely gorgeous and looks even better in person, and the hot tub and other amenities were great as well. Michelle is a great host and made sure we had everything (and more) that we needed to have an amazing trip. I think this is definitely the place to beat, and if I ever come back to Gatlinburg with a bigger group, I will absolutely be staying here again.

Perfect Christmas Getaway!

We arrived to a beautiful Christmas tree and decor, it was perfect! The house was the perfect size for a family of four adults. It was clean, beds were comfortable and a fully stocked kitchen. The driveway way flat but it is definitely up the mountain to get to the cabin, but perfect location. We loved our stay at Ski'n with The Bears!!❤️
