Great cabin. Spent 4 days in the area exploring the park and Gatlinburg. We really liked the park (GSMNP) but could have done without the amount of people in Gatlinburg. Overall, good location tucked away for the Parkway.

Nice looking Property from the outside. Basic finishes on the inside. Located in a nice community with a pool. Family friendly environment but be sure to get there before dark! It’s extremely hard to find your way through the community at night.

This cabin was sufficient for our needs, and overall we had a good stay. The price was extremely reasonable, and the location was very convenient, which would make us consider booking again. There were a few things we wish had been provided, such as cooking spray and fuller salt and pepper containers. We unfortunately ran out of salt while making dinner. We also wish there had been a light near the hot tub, as it was too dark on the porch at night and we didn’t end up spending much time there after sunset. The cabin itself was generally clean, although we did have a few cockroach sightings throughout our stay. Thankfully, all but one were already dead, so we assumed they may have gotten in while the cabin was being cleaned or prepared before our arrival. There also wasn’t a smart TV, but that wasn’t a major issue for us since we were able to use an iPad when needed. The host was responsive to the questions we had prior to our arrival, and overall, we enjoyed our stay.

So glad you enjoyed your stay and may become one of our many repeat guests. In our listing we describe our kitchen as being supplied with all equipment needed for cooking, but we do not provide ingredients. The TVs are described in our listing as being flat screens with Spectrum cable which includes HBO, Cinemax, and Showtime plus On Demand features. We have a light on the back deck which should provide sufficient light; it was working with our last guest. We will double check to make sure the light bulb is still working, and if not, we will replace it immediately. Our cabin is located in a wooden setting and it is possible that the occasional wood roach could enter the cabin. We are so thankful our pest control company does such a great job. Thank you for staying at Black Bear Cabin.

About the host

Hosted by David & Peggy Russo

Host profile image
We've been coming to the Smoky's since we first met. We married and now have 3 children. Our cabin is a dream come true for us.

Why they chose this property

We have lived in different parts of the United States and feel there is no place that matches the beauty of the Smoky Mountains.

What makes this property unique

Black Bear Falls Resort kept the natural beauty and added ponds and cascading waterfalls. While our kids have enjoyed swimming in the pool, one of their most favorite activities is feeding the fish and ducks. Our whole family enjoys walking around the community keeping track of all the wildlife we see.
