Bear Hug was a great place!

Very nice place and we had great comunication with the host! Bear Hug was a great place to stay in order to visit Gatlinburg and Dollywood. A little bit of a drive but nice to stay in an area that was not congested at all. It was close to the lake and I'm sure would be a great place to stay in the summer when the lake has not been drained. The place was also good for a dog and very comfortable for the humans as well! Thank you so much, Sonja! It was also great to meet you! If we are in your area again at some point, we would definitely stay at Bear Hug!

Quick Get Away

This was a quick get away for my wife and I. The location was excellent and the view of the lake was nice. We had a couple of issues with getting in the unit and bathroom items but it was handled by the host in short order.

Affordable, charming, amazing view

This was a perfect “base camp” for exploring hikes in the Cherokee and Pisgah National Forrests and visiting family in Morristown. Very clean and comfortable, neighbors were quiet, host was helpful. The view from this hilltop of the water and surrounding mountains is so beautiful. One thing to note, it is a basement unit and there were no windows so it’s not a great place to hang out indoors; however, we were outside the whole time so this was not an issue for us! There’s an outdoor patio overlooking the vista that’s perfect for morning coffee.
