Luxury, Spacious, Convenient

This cabin was everything it was marketed to be in the overview and description. Absolutely gorgeous, more than spacious for our group of 9, all the things you need to cook meals and enjoy the kitchen for meals together. Pool room was a hit for the kids, hottub was great for adults. Totally convenient location to everything we wanted to enjoy, national park hiking, Dollywood, Gatlinburg, really perfect.

Water Bear Cabin Is a Fun Place to Stay

The Water Bear cabin is a wonderful place to vacation with your family. The location is close to everything. We used the pool every day. So nice that every guest room has its own private bathroom. The outdoor spaces are pleasant to sit in and enjoy the weather. The kitchen is nice and the great room is very comfortable for families to play games, watch TV or just talk. Perfect place for multi-generational families.

5 Star Cabin

Our entire family had so much fun! It was close enough to the necessities and a short drive to pigeon forge! It was also far enough away to enjoy the peace and sounds of nature! The real star was the outdoor ship! So much time was spent outside playing! I cannot recommend this cabin enough. We will be back!

Great Stay for 2 families

We had 4 adults and 4 young kids 6 and under. It was the perfect cabin to accommodate everyone. The kids had a blast on the pirate ship when it was warmish. We were forecasted to get snow and we did but only an inch at the cabin so we went up the mountain and there was 4 inches, the kids loved it. We really enjoyed the hot tub and pool as well as the outdoor fireplace while the kids were in the hot tub. The kitchen was very well stocked, heck the knife set I want for my house. It would be nice to have a few actual glasses that aren’t plastic. We also found really soft blankets that we also wanted but found out they were discontinued. Overall very happy with the cabin and the property manager was accommodating to our requests. We would recommend this place.

Loved Water Bear!

My family of 4 (2 boys ages 4 and 8) loved this place so much. It was exactly as the listing! The furniture was comfortable. The patio was my favorite place in the whole house. We spent so much time there. The boys were obsessed with the ship. They keep saying how much they miss it. The kitchen was well stocked. The theater and game room were huge hits. We loved the blankets throughout the house. In fact I even bought one for myself after searching online! Communication from the owners was excellent. The surrounding area is quiet. The leaves are beautiful. The pool and hot tub were enjoyed as well. My only complaint at all is the size of the bath towels, but I know this is the management company, not the owners. We will absolutely come back to Water Bear. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Beautiful home

Pros: Beautiful home as shown in the pictures. The owner was responsive. Our group of 12 (6 adults and 6 kids) enjoyed the pool, firepit, grill, indoor games, and 3 king beds. The home is well-made. Considerations: Our group was surprised that this was one of the few vrbo's (we rent atleast 4/year) that had no washroom toiletries. Not even handwashing soap. So alert future renters to bring all toiletries (including toilet paper). We also expected a higher standard of cleaning. The owner was extremely responsive and called the cleaning staff again once we reported on check in. The staff "said" they cleaned it but honestly, they just visited, as we still had dirty floors. We had little crawlers in our group who gathered all the dirt on their clothes and off the floor. This is no fault of the owner, as he offered us to depart asap and leave the accommodation! Where would we go, on Memorial Day weekend last minute with 6 kids!!! So we choose to stay and make most of it.
