Great place for a couples getaway. Close to the strip for anything you’d want to do, just far enough away to feel you’re in the woods to enjoy the peace and quiet.
Great location. Very easy access to restaurants and activities. The cabin was clean and well stocked. We loved the screened in deck with hot tub, picnic table and grill!
This cabin was perfect for us and close to everything. We enjoyed our time there so much! Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us! We will stay again!
We've been staying at the Bear's Den for close to fifteen years. it is just off the parkway which gives easy access to everything in Pigeon Forge in minutes. The cabin is clean, comfortable, and has all the necessities in the kitchen. There is no better location or cabin ad far as my wife and I are concerned. We'll be returning again next year.

Thank you for always staying with us! We are honored to have you year after year!
This was our first VRBO experience! The location of the property was perfect! Close to everything that we wanted to do. The hot tub was great! We were a little disappointed that the arcade game didn't work correctly...player #1's controls didn't work. Very cute bear motif throughout the cozy cabin, which I know is hard to keep totally dust and cobweb free. We still very much enjoyed our three day stay! So much better than a hotel room!

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay! I was not aware about the arcade game so I will look into getting this repaired. It’s quite a vintage machine so I going to be optimistic that it can be repaired. I guess people get excited when playing and must have pulled too much on the joystick. Thank you for staying with us!
Everything was great! We celebrated our 49th anniversary and could not have asked for a better place. Now on to 50 years together. Thanks for sharing your precious cabin with us.
Great location. Close to everything but with a mountainous feel. Hot tub was an added bonus my girls loved. It’s a cozy cabin. It’s not huge but we managed with 4 for our 3 night stay just fine. My girls used the pull out sofa sleeper and didn’t complain so it must be comfy. Would definitely book here again if we come back to the area.
Perfect place for a couples get away. Online pictures do not do it justice you have to see this place in person. Its definitely bigger than the photos show. Hot tub was absolutely perfect. Very quiet area. Very lovely place we will definitely be booking it again in the future

About the host
Hosted by Jenaffer Stevenson
My name is Jenaffer Pitt and I am honored that you are considering my rental property. I decorated and equipped The Bear's Den with everything you need to have an enjoyable and relaxing vacation. Pigeon Forge has been one of my favorite places to visit over the last 25 years which is why I chose to purchase a cabin here. Some of mine and my son's most memorable times while visiting here is going to Dollywood and Splash Country, seeing the wildlife at Cade's Cove (a must see), Trick-or-Treating at the outlets, Seeing all of the lights at Christmas, the numerous car shows, shopping til you drop (literally) oh and my son loves the go-carts and the live shows. We have created priceless memories here and hope that we can do that for you too! Don't miss out on the Island...there is tons to do there too!
Why they chose this property
I chose this location because of how convenient it is to everything but yet far enough away to enjoy being in the mountains.
What makes this property unique
Our cozy cabin is truly home away from home.
