Thank you for the great review of Cuddle Shack. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the clean cabin and the beautiful mountain views. The driveway is definitely steep, and we appreciate you mentioning it for future guests. Parking is limited at the front entrance, and while a second vehicle can access the cabin, it would need to back down the driveway since there isn’t space to turn around. We’re glad everything worked out for your stay and would love to host you again.

The cabin was wonderful! But we encountered a momma bear and 3 cubs. The momma bear did slight damage to our jeep, and no, we had no food or drinks in the jeep. We were concerned the she would come back while were asleep so we ended up leaving after 1 night and got a room in town. The drive up to the cabin also gave me a panic attack!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review and for sharing those beautiful photos — the views and the bears really are something special in the Smokies. We’re truly glad you enjoyed the cabin, even though your stay took an unexpected turn. We appreciate you letting us know about the bear encounter and your early departure. Wildlife sightings are common in the area, but we completely understand how surprising it can be to come across a mother bear with cubs. Your safety and comfort are always our top priority, and we’re glad you made the choice that felt right for you. Thank you again for choosing Cuddle Shack and for being such thoughtful guests.
