Seeking a charming cabin with a spectacular view of the Smokies that is actually IN Gatlinburg? You’ve just found it!

Surrounded by forest, looking onto the Great Smoky Mountains, and with delightful amenities such as an outdoor hot tub, an indoor jetted tub, and a stone fireplace, Bear Hugs will have you in the mood for romance—or relaxation.

Yet, while the log cabin feels tucked away from it all, it’s hardly remote. Downtown Gatlinburg, with its entertainment, shopping, and restaurants, is only a five-minute car ride away. The main entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is also just a short drive away, as are golf courses, Dollywood, Rocky Top Sports World, and so much more. You’ll be delighted by Bear Hugs as soon as you pull up into the drive. A true log cabin with a chalet-style cathedral ceiling, it rises on stilts to offer spectacular views of the Smokies from the deck that spans the width of the house.

The deck has a 4 person spa that overlooks the Smoky Mountains!

The interior of Bear Hugs is just as inviting as the exterior. The wood floor, walls, and ceiling cocoon you with warmth and charm. Guests will enjoy the quality leather furnishings, original art, antique persian rug, 50 inch HDTV with cable, and a cozy fire on those chilly days and evenings! Of course Bear Hugs has internet access! The comfortable leather living room sofa converts into a bed for two with a memory foam mattress, so that the house can sleep up to four people in all.

The hand-crafted dining table seats four people as well. You can look out the large windows to the mountains as you enjoy your meal, so that you’ll almost feel as if you’re dining alfresco.

The kitchen is equipped with all new stainless steel appliances, coffee maker, cookware, and tableware. Should you want to barbecue, there’s a charcoal grill outside as well. Among other conveniences, the cabin has its own washer and dryer, so you can both pack light and return home with a suitcase full of clean clothes (isn’t having to do laundry as soon as you get back the worst?).

The master suite is on the main level along with the living/dining area and the kitchen. Decorated in the same comfortably rustic style as the rest of the home, the suite includes a king-size bed, a TV, and a bathroom complete with jetted tub. When you arrive you’ll find the bed freshly made and laundered towels ready and waiting, so if you want to unwind with a bath or a nap as soon as you arrive, you can.

There’s a half bath upstairs on the loft level, convenient if you have overnight guests. Also upstairs is a pool table and commercial arcade that operates without any quarters! Great for rainy days!

Because Bear Hugs is located in the forty-three acre Black Bear Falls Log Home Community, when you stay you can take advantage of the resort’s two heated swimming pools, one of which is a kiddie pool, from Memorial Day to Labor Day. There’s also a poolside lounge area and a clubhouse with free WiFi.

Beautiful and loaded with modern-day amenities and conveniently located close to so many places to explore and enjoy, Bear Hugs is a wonderful base for a getaway you’ll never forget. So reserve your stay today, and get ready to start making memories!

Cute but bare
Nice space and very clean overall. We were a little disappointed to arrive to little to no toiletries or cooking supplies. We've rented at a few places now and this is definitely a first to not even have salt and pepper. Several of the games were missing pieces or had broken parts so not very family friendly if you have smaller kids. Hosts also never responded when we tried to let them know about damages found when we arrived.

Great anniversary!!!
My husband and I booked Bear Hugs for our 18th anniversary, we haven't been many places together alone, this was fantastic! Pretty well stocked kitchen, everything worked good except the Jacuzzi tub 😆, that was an experience all within itself, at least trying to turn it off, as it was shooting water everywhere. Hot tub was nice and well enjoyed. We visited Ripleys aquarium, the island, many shops and all in all had an amazing, very memorable experience! We would definitely come back!

Perfect little getaway
The property is beautiful. We had fun with the arcade game, enjoyed each night in the hot tub and even got to see some bears. It was such an easy check in. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely Family Vacation
We loved staying at Bear Hugs with our family of 4! It was perfect location to everything! The only “complaint” we had was there were lots of spider webs in the bedroom/bathroom. We killed a few spiders, but understand it’s a cabin in the woods. The only other thing was the electronic lock was hard to use to lock up. We didn’t receive instruction on how to lock it, so it was trial and error. One day we thought it locked and came home to an unlocked cabin. The door/lock seemed to not be super compatible and could stand to be upgraded. Would suggest instructions for locking up in check in emails. Otherwise highly recommend! We plan to be back!

A Cozy Cabin
Very nice stay at Bare Hugs cabin. The cabin is very cute with a fireplace and a hot tub. We didn’t use the kitchen, but it is fully equipped and stocked with dishes. All major appliances and a microwave and coffee maker. Bed was comfortable. Cabin was very quiet and in a beautiful area. We were up higher and did have a nice view from the porch. Relaxing place to come home to after long days of hiking. Alamo Steakhouse and Pancake Pantry, both recommends by the landlords, were great places to eat. Would stay here again for sure! Thank you!

from Pittsburgh to Gatlinburg
After driving the 8 hours or so from Pittsburgh we arrived at the Cabin. The directions were brilliant and even us Brits could follow them ! On arrival we were met with a beautiful, secluded clean cabin. After a long drive there was only one thing to do , jump in the hot tub! Once we had rested we started to have a really good look around the cabin. The amenities were outstanding with everything you could possibly need. After long days of driving around the different trails we liked nothing more than to go into the supermarket , pick up some food and drink and go back to the cabin and relax for the evening. I could not recommend this accommodation highly enough and all the photos that I took really do not do it justice. The only thing I would say is that everyone in the UK is quite jealous and that they would love to stay there. Maybe they will but we will definitely be back some time soon. Thank you again for a wonderful stay. Colin Drayson.

Very cute cabin in a cabin community
Very clean, cute cabin in a cabin rental community. Check in and out was easy. There were no interruptions throughout the trip. We went during a slow season so it felt very private, but it may have felt less private if there were families booked at the surrounding rentals. We did purchase unnecessary toiletries and brought towels - but they had both for us, so rest assured they have thought ahead. Would recommend for a cozy getaway!
