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.

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.
