What a great home, truly a fantastic place to stay.

There are many pros to this place so I'll name a few: 2 king beds, 1 queen, 2 full, large bunk bed, and loft bed with trundle pull out bed. This place really does sleep a lot of people and lets not forget the amazing view!! Also, there wasn't anything we were looking for that we couldn't find. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds and furniture were very comfortable (no complaints from me or any of my family). I think there's more than 4 large TV's in this place so we never had to worry about someone taking over the TV which was nice. The ping pong table got a lot of use by all the kids (way more than I expected) so thank you for that. It also has a large Jacuzzi tub that we did not have the chance to use. Now for the cons: there's only one, the road. It's paved for the 1st 1/2 mile but the last 1/4-1/3 mile is a pretty steep gravel driveway. I had a 15 passenger 2 wheel drive Ford Transit 350 van. I had to drop it down in 1st gear every time to get up to the house but it got there so that was good. For the 1st 6 days of our stay, the end of the road/driveway closest to the house was pretty wash-boarded and I had to find the "sweet spot" to get to the house. On the last 2 days, it had been smoothed out by some kind of machinery and that made all the difference (thank you for that as well). So that's it, a steep gravel road/driveway that's now been smoothed out. I would definitely stay here again.

Lovely vacation!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Emerald Bear. The house had lots of room for our family and they really enjoyed the hot tub and the firepit. The house is close to everything in Maggie Valley, but still feels secluded. The yard was beautiful and I really enjoyed sitting out on the porch. The locks are tricky, but are okay once you figure them out. You will get lots of exercise going up and down the stairs. The stairs between the first and second floor are bare wood and we did have one person slip and fall down the stairs while wearing socks (she was okay though)... Everything else was perfect!

Great for 3 families

Enjoyable stay 6 adults 4 youth. We had our entire family and house layout was great for 3 families. Only issue was with locks on kitchen and downstairs patio door. These locks require that the handle be rotated CCW before you can lock the deadbolts. Would have been nice if info was included in info package. We do recommend the property.
