About this property

Conveniently located, family-fun, mountain view, fire pit cabin!

You will notice right away that our cabins are uniquely different. We go out-of-the-way and over-the-top to offer our guests the best vacation experience.

A gorgeous vista of Mt LeConte and a serene setting is what you will find at “Bear in Mind”! Imagine starting your morning on the back deck with a breathtaking mountain view in the distance and the quiet forest floor below. “Bear in Mind” is easily accessible in a cul de sac at the end of a gentle winding road. Conveniently located in the Arts and Crafts Community close to downtown Gatlinburg yet still privately nestled in the trees. You will absolutely love the location of this cabin but “Bear in Mind”.... the cabin’s location is just one of many things you will fall in love with!

The cabin is well appointed with high quality furniture, original paintings and decor! There is high speed internet connection and WiFi at the cabin for your entertainment and convenience. The two King Suites centerpiece beautiful locally hand made beds from reclaimed barn wood. Both King Suites are tastefully appointed with luxury, high quality bedding and King pillow top mattresses. All the makings for a good nights sleep! Each of the spacious King suites provides jetted bathtubs to help you relax after a fun filled day. Both suites have private fireplaces, their own access to separate decks and TV's with access to the Dish Satellite system of over 200 channels.

The game room is equipped to provide ample of entertainment. There is a Sony Brava 65" HD 4k TV with Netflix and over 200 Dish Satellite channels, a full size pool table, a multicade whiskey barrel cocktail table with 60 all time favorite classic arcade games including PacMan, Donkey Kong, Millipede, Galaga and Ms. PacMan. Try your luck at an exciting and challenging game of Hookey. There’s also a great selection of board games and puzzles for all ages. The full sized couch folds out to a queen sleeper with a thick mattress making it possible for “Bear in Mind” to sleep up to six guests comfortably and privately. There is a mini bar with a sink and refrigerator so that beverages and snacks are close at hand. On the deck just outside of the game room is yet another perfect gathering spot. You'll find a cedar swing, rocking chairs and a hot tub. Perfect for an evening of family fun under the Tennessee night sky.

Back upstairs you will love the main floor's vaulted ceiling and open concept. The fifteen foot ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outside mountain view inside. The living, dining and kitchen areas are connected making it perfect for entertaining. The living room is spacious and wonderfully decorated. We know you'll find it a place of rest and relaxation. The kitchen has granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and an amazing rustic hickory dining table that looks out at the beautiful vista. The kitchen is well equipped as we anticipated your every need. The grocery store is just three minutes down the hill if you decide to stay in for a "cabin cooked" meal. The upper deck is just off the living room and is complete with Amish made rocking chairs, a fire pit and covered picnic table for outdoor dining.

We've thought of everything to make your stay convenient and comfortable. If "Bear in Mind" is not available for your vacation dates please check out our brand new cabin, "Bearindipity" VRBO#2725990. It is packed with fun and everything you need for the perfect vacation getaway with family or friends. We hope you will discover something new in the Smoky Mountains and make wonderful memories in your home away from home! “Bear in Mind”.... you’re gonna fall in love with this cabin!

Wonderful property and host
"Bear in Mind" was an ideal place for our family (including two 5yo's and a 10yo) to retreat for some spring break R&R. The home is a beautiful destination in and of itself, and is also a short drive to Gatlinburg, the national park, and other regional destinations. We chose to take it easy, enjoying a couple of half-day adventures while spending the rest of our time enjoying the mountain scenery from the cabin, cooking/grilling meals for the family and having some fun with the arcade console, pool table and spa. We sincerely appreciated the hosts' welcome and excellent communication. We definitely recommend this property to others. Thank you!

Perfect in Every Way
Richele is the most considerate host and her property is perfect in every way. The day prior to check-in, Richele reached out to let me know the cabin was ready for our arrival and we could check-in early! It was such a nice treat to settle in earlier and begin vacationing sooner! The cabin is immaculate and exactly as listed. Having two master suites on separate floors, each with their own walk-out patio, was perfect for me, my husband, daughter and son-in-law. Private space for everyone! Downtown Gatlinburg, Arts & Crafts Communities and the Smoky Mountains National Park is just a short drive away with options for everyone! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

We have dreamed about owning a mountain home. So yes, this is a dream come true! We love exploring the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Every hike is an adventure and new memories are made for our family. We are excited to finally own a mountain cabin and thrilled to share it with you.

We are proud to share with you our second cabin in Tennessee, Bearindipity!
Please check out our newest cabin, "Bearindipity", located in Pigeon Forge VRBO#2725990!

We love our "Bear in Mind" cabin in Gatlinburg so it seemed natural that we would find another mountain cabin to love. Our "Bearindipity" cabin was love at first site and we saw potential around every corner. We have enjoyed every part of working, waiting and watching the renovations come to fruition. We could not be more excited about the finished product and we are thrilled to finally share it with you.

If "Bear in Mind" is unavailable for your vacation dates or if you are looking for a cabin that will accommodate more family and friends, please check out "Bearindipity"!

Why they chose this property

The peaceful mountain view! Sitting on the deck in the quietness of the forest with Mt LeConte in the distance is perfection. We fell in love with the cabin's convenient location and secluded feeling.

What makes this property unique

"Bear in Mind" is conveniently located to everything! The cabin is situated at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park's north side entrance and a short drive to all of the attractions in Gatlinburg and along The Parkway in Pigeon Forge. Hint, hint...make sure to take advantage of the back road "short cut" to the cabin during crowded, heavy traffic times in Gatlingurg!
