The perfect couple getaway

The location was absolutely perfect for our little getaway. The jacuzzi was so nice and loved that it was private. The cabin had everything we needed. The local artisan touches was a nice touch.

We enjoyed our stay at Bear Hugs cabin. It was close in proximity to all the attractions but far enough off the parkway to be relaxing.

Anniversary getaway

Short getaway for myself and my wife for our anniversary, cabin is perfect for 2 close to most everything you need but far enough from the congestion. Community entrance looks a little ruff almost looks abandoned.

Nice romantic cabin

The cabin was clean and everything in order. Hot tub was clean and warm. Appliances are a bit dated but work without issue and had enough pots and pans to cook dinner with. The location is easy to get to but tucked far enough away from the main road to be quite and peaceful. Would certainly stay again next time I'm visiting the smokies.

Time Alone

Property was great!!! Everything was dreamy and wonderful for a 2 night stay for us Loved the fireplace and the bed was incredibly comfortable Only thing was the 21 steps up to the cabin from the ground level parking place As much as we loved the way it was done up the steps were daunting for me at this stage of life

Wonderful get-away cabin

Wonderful place to stay. Our 3rd time there, we consider it our home away from home. There is a mud dauber nest over the hot tub. A Virginia creeper coming through lattice by hot tub( some people are allergic). Other than that we saw nothing that needed fixing. Love the bed, it's so comfortable! And I have had back surgery so that's very important to me. We look forward to coming bsck in the fall

The cabin was as described .

The location was near everything as it was a very busy area once leaving the cabin complex . The cabin was just the right size for two and the outdoor hot tub was great ! The bed was not very comfortable and the blue ray player we couldn’t get to work after going to Walmart and purchasing a few movies to watch, it was a let down but otherwise it was a nice stay . You do have other cabins near you .

To the point.

This is a great place to stay if you’re not planning on going into the city and or do you need a quick pitstop. The Wi-Fi is complete trash. Which is understandable because you’re in the mountains and you should enjoy being in the mountains. The TV had no channels. We tried to turn on Netflix one night and it wouldn’t turn on, so we left it up there to see how long it would take for it to load up it took two days for it to load up. Which again you’re in the mountains so it’s not about the TV. The bathroom is very outdated so is the kitchen. The kitchen faucet was leaking all over the floor, and most of the dishes were not clean they had a grime on them that I could rub with my finger. Starting at 8 o’clock until about 4 o’clock every 30 minutes there is a helicopter that flies over the cabin, really the whole neighborhood because there is a helicopter tour right next to the neighborhood. The neighborhood is a sweet spot though, the view however, there is none. If you are going to be snowed in perfect spot, because you won’t be able to see the view either way. Hot tub, is also very nice but it would not refill with water for some reason. I probably won’t be coming back to this cabin, but if you’re looking for a night or two to rent out it’s the perfect place. Otherwise I really did not have a great experience at all especially for the price I paid.

Location was perfect for our stay and while there were neighbors close you still felt like you were in the woods. We enjoyed the hot tub and it was on the opposite side of the closest neighbor. The cabin was very charming.
