This cabin is absolute heaven! Everything was as described and very clean and organized. Everyday necessities were there and ready. The location is perfect if you are looking to be close to downtown but away from it all for peace and quiet! The host was very easy to deal with and very responsive. I recommend It Bears Repeating to anyone looking for a cabin that is welcoming and honestly feels like home! We loved our stay and will be back!

Nice stay in Gatlinburg

Lovely cabin. Very clean, well stocked, comfy beds. Close to grocery store. Had a great time just hanging out playing games, watching movies. Saw a bear 3 times - once right outside the screen door. We think it was the same one- juvenile. If we ever go back to Gatlinburg, I would definitely rent again.

Perfect Destination

This cabin met all of our needs and more. Our daughter loved the game room and the loft bedroom and my wife and I enjoyed the peacefulness and relaxing in the hot tub. The cabin was clean, well organized and comfortably and beautifully decorated. We were located in a quiet area but less than 10 minutes to a grocery store and the attractions in Gatlinburg. My family and I look forward to visiting again soon.

Wonderful stay for New Years!!

We had a great stay at It Bears Repeating. My husband and I stayed with our 2 boys for the New Years week, and we had the best time ever. The home had everything we could have wanted and everything we needed. The boys loved the playroom and were entertained with the arcade games and pool table most. The home is very spacious and yet felt very warm. They even had a Christmas tree and decorations that gave us that holiday feeling even with being away from home. Everything was clean and as promised. We can't wait to visit again and hope this home or one of the host's other 2 homes are available for us. I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed!

The cabin was amazing! Very close to Gatlinburg but still away enough to be quiet. Very clean cabin. We enjoyed to outside fire area and the hot tub. We also loved the games in the game room. All were in new condition and we had a great time. The kitchen was very well stocked with plates, glasses, pot n pans etc. One of the best cabins overall that we have stayed at in our 20 years of visiting the area.

We loved our stay at the cabin and everything about it. The cabin was clean and every room is beautifully decorated. The kitchen wasn't missing a thing either. The media room and game room are awesome. It is a great location very close to the arts & crafts loop, which I loved. And downtown Gatlinburg is minutes away. Our hosts were responsive and kind the couple of times we reached out for minor things.

The house was as described. The house was only able to be cooled to 70, which made for some warm nights for the family. Nice place. Kids enjoyed games and the game room. Nicely stocked kitchen. Checkout was easy. Will return as we come to the area frequently for sporting events.

Family vacation

The property was clean and stocked with everything one may need. The inside stairs were a little tricky/narrow but was fine. Main area is on the second floor and there’s a loft bedroom/bath on third floor. We enjoyed our time.

About the host

Hosted by Richele

Host profile image
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 three beautiful mountain cabins and thrilled to share them with you.

"Bear in Mind" (VRBO#2142098) and "It Bears Repeating" (VRBO#2805434) are located in Gatlinburg in the Arts and Crafts Community. The cabins are close together which makes them perfect for big families or large groups. "Bearindipity" (VRBO#2725990) is located in Pigeon Forge near The Ripken Experience Ballpark. Our cabins are tucked away for privacy yet close to grocery stores and all the tourist attractions located along The Parkway.

All three cabins are loaded with all the amenities needed for the perfect vacation experience. We thought of everything. From fire pits, to cookware, plush towels and the most comfortable beds you can imagine. You will discover why we are a 5-Star vacation experience and why our guest return year after year.

Make sure to check out all three of our cabins when planning your vacation in the Smoky Mountains!

Why they chose this property

This property is magical. The grounds are lush and covered with beautiful hostas, ferns, towering oaks and blooming dogwood trees.

What makes this property unique

We absolutely love the Arts and Crafts Community area of Gatlinburg. The area is tucked away and feels very private yet it is convenient in every way. 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. There is a grocery store, liquor store, clinic, restaurants and fire station just 3 minutes down the hill and the bustling parkway is only 8 minutes away when you're ready to explore the town. Hint, hint...make sure to take advantage of the back road "short cut" to the cabin during crowded, heavy traffic times in Gatlingurg!
