Bear-rific View - Unplug, unwind and enjoy creation’s beauty in your cozy cabin.
If your looking for a place to rest and unwind, you’ve found it. People say the cabin is cozy and feels like home away from home. The cabin has expansive views of the Smoky Mountains and of famous Mt Leconte. The cabin is just a little ways up and tucked away amongst the trees giving you excellent privacy and opportunities to see wildlife and the occasional black bear that makes its way along the ridge. The pics don’t do it justice.
When you’re home, the mountains are visible from most places in the cabin as natural light comes flooding in from the expansive windows. The real wood fireplace can keep you warm on winter days and adds to a cozy evening after dark. You can enjoy a book on an oversized chair in the bedrooms or on the balcony with your favorite beverage. After a hike in the park or a night on the town you can come home and slip into the hot tub or hang out on the large deck to unwind.
If solitude is not what you crave, you can be in Pigeon Forge in about 10 minutes to enjoy your favorite restaurants and activities. If the kids are in tow, we have a game room with a pool table and vintage arcade games. Dollywood is nearby and is a family favorite. NOTE: There are three sets stairways and about 20 steps to reach the cabin and a narrow sidewalk between the first and second set. Please take this into account before you book.

Great location, views were top notch. Hot tub was clean and communication with the host was perfect. We found the cabin as described in the listing with everything we needed on hand. Really enjoyed our stay and looking forward to next time!
The view is wonderful!! Extremely charming cabin! Very quiet and relaxing. We will be staying there again the next time we are in the area. We highly recommend this cabin!!
Our stay at the Cabin was amazing as usual! This was our second stay here and it is beautiful. The view is amazing. The cabin is cozy and clean and well equipped, perfect for a wonderful getaway. Location is perfect for a quiet, peaceful and restful experience but only 10 to 15 minutes or so from the main attractions.
This is a great property! It has a wonderful view, is conveniently located to all the popular attractions, and is also quiet and secluded. I would definitely recommend this cabin to others!
What a great spot for a great little weekend getaway. The cabin was nestled down a gravel drive, with PLENTY of privacy and an expansive view of the beautiful mountains. The location was perfect to drop into Dollywood and Pigeon Forge, but still feel like you are out in the woods. The cabin was immaculate, well stocked and such a great home base for the weekend activities. Check in was a breeze and the hosts were incredibly communicative, but also let us enjoy our stay without interruption. My pup LOVED the massive windows and basically stared off the porch all day. We’ll definitely be back!
Our family of four with two teen daughters had a really terrific time at the Bear-rific cabin. The cabin was clean, had a wonderful view, and we enjoyed watching it from the hot tub and while drinking coffee on the deck. John was incredibly responsive and helpful. Thanks for everything!
Beautiful views from this cozy cabin! The drive up was well worth the view and privacy of the location. Cabin had all the essentials which made the trip comfortable. Hot tub was clean and relaxing. Very pleased that our dog was welcome, too! Close to town and quick response from the owner. Thanks for a great stay!
Nice and peaceful location. View was good but would definitely be great with no leaves on the trees. It is seasonal. The decks were very nice. It would be nice if the lower deck had a gate that could be closed, so furbabies and kids could not go off of it. Hot tub was great! No grill on sight. Kitchen was stocked but there really wasn't any 9x13 pans and some important utensils. We bring a lot of kitchen items from home. Beds were comfortable. The TV in the living room area is extremely small. The bedroom TV's were bigger. The upstairs loft area with chairs needed cleaned. The floors were pretty dirty up there. The upstairs bathroom is pretty small and the toilet had issues flushing at times. The refrigerator was leaking, so we had to keep wiping up the water from it. All and all not a bad place. Just needed a little TLC here and there. Would recommend and would stay again.
Absolutely breathtaking views from the deck and hot tub! Everything was clean and updated. The secluded cabin was even more beautiful than the photos portrayed. It was nice to have the pool table for some extra fun. Check in was easy and John was a great host. Note that it is probably a good idea to have a 4 wheel drive to get up to the cabin. We rode a Harley and did have to park at the bottom of the driveway because of the loose gravel on the drive and parking area.
We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It was spotless, comfortable, and ready for us when we arrived. The views are absolutely breathtaking—you truly can’t beat waking up to that scenery each morning, and the deck is perfect for soaking it all in. The hot tub was sparkling clean and so relaxing, and our kids loved every inch of the cabin, especially the game room.The cabin is in bear country, so be mindful and use the bear-proof trash cans conveniently located near the parking area. During our stay, we even had the wild experience of a bear wandering close by while we were in the hot tub! Thankfully, we were safe and able to step inside quickly, but it was definitely a reminder that this is their natural habitat. Just take normal precautions, stay aware, and you’ll be fine—it’s part of the mountain charm.We were especially grateful to find a pet-friendly cabin this nice, and we hope future guests help keep it that way by treating it with care. The host was responsive, kind, and made the whole process easy. We’d absolutely recommend booking this cabin for a beautiful, memorable getaway!
We stayed at John’s mountaintop cabin in June.While there we had a small issue and he was very responsive and helpfulSeeing a small bear right beside the house was fun and exciting. The hot tub was great. And, the view out the front door? Absolutely beautiful!
The cabin was nice and in a good location to what we were visiting in town. I thought it was odd that there was no handsoap in the whole house. It may just be me, but I don't travel with hand soap, we had to use our body wash to wash our hands after using the bathroom. I will pay better attention to amenities in the future. The upstairs toilet didn't flush so we couldn't use it, which was inconvenient in the middle of the night, but the owner was very nice about it and I understand that things break or don't work all the time. The hot tub was nice and the view was beautiful. Overall, we had a nice stay.
This cabin was beautiful and exactly as described! Lots of steps getting from the driveway to the front door, so just make sure you are not handicapped if you stay here. The views were stunning! Cabin was very clean and accommodating other than not having a grill but we just ordered out instead of grilling.
This Cabin was great! The location, The View was awesome, and perfect for our family and even our puppy as well!! Wish we could have stayed longer. Definitely would stay here again!
First stay at Bear-rific and we weren’t disappointed!!! Beautiful view and amenities were great!! Our Host, John, was in contact from the time I booked and made sure we had all the information we needed. John even provided a picture of the drive entrance to help.Would definitely recommend and would book again!!
Very happy with our stay. Beautiful views, very comfortable cabin with a great location. We also had the pleasure to see some bear cubs

About the host
Hosted by John Thompson
We really enjoy sharing are cabin with others. It’s a very special place we are blessed to be its stewards. Our favorite thing to do when we’re there is go into the National Park to hike and experience the natural beauty of God’s creation and when we get back at the cabin, we like to watch the clouds and sun cast shadow across the the mountains as we decompress from modern life.
Why they chose this property
Fox Run is an early development and the lots are spacious with lots of natural landscape and trees playing host to the many birds and animals.
What makes this property unique
The location is on the point of a ridge facing directly at the Great Smoky Mountain NP. It offer unprecedented privacy while only being 7 minutes from Pigeon Forge. It sits on the ridge like a normal home, not hanging out over a steep terrain like most of the cabins that offer a view. It’s home away from home and we maintain it for ourselves and guest. It’s a special place that you will have to experience for yourself to truly understand.
