Neighborhood & additional information:
The cabin is in the premier community of Chalet Village, Gatlinburg, Tennessee and our property is adjacent to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. The views from cabin of the Great Smoky Mountains are breathtaking and we are only 2.5 miles from downtown Gatlinburg and the entrance to the Smoky Mountains National Park!

Our close proximity to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park means there is lots of wildlife in our area - black bears, deer, wild turkeys, raccoons, coyotes, fox, and more! Black bears visit the cabin often in Spring, Summer and Fall. You may get lucky and catch a glimpse of one of these residents while enjoying the view from the deck. We also contract regular monthly pest services which treat for all pests from multiple types of bugs, mice, etc. Despite our regular treatments, given the proximity of the cabin to the park, it is possible these pests can temporarily enter the cabin. We immediately respond and treat if anything comes up and have found it is rare to come across anything like this.

When you've had enough relaxation, look forward to endless entertainment in the surrounding area; you'll be in the perfect spot to explore through winding hiking trails and world-class ski slopes in the Great Smoky Mountains. Other local attractions can be found in downtown Gatlinburg, including delectable restaurants, intriguing shops, the always-entertaining alpine slides, and even a moonshine distillery! During your time here, make sure to visit the Ober Gatlinburg Amusement Park & Ski Area, which offers terrific skiing in the colder months, a ski mountain coaster, an aerial tramway, and many other thrilling attractions!

The cabin is located on a mountain road. We strongly recommend trip insurance, especially during the winter since there are no refunds for snow and ice. In difficult winter or storm related weather situations there can be delays in cleaning and check-in pending road conditions which can be outside of our control.

True to the Bearadise name! Fantastic cabin.
The place is very clean, the beds are comfy, the kitchen is fully stocked, and the VIBE is amazing. Sit on the porch with a cup of coffee and wave at the tram riders as they float by in front of you. We had 9 individual bears visit frequently in the yard and the porches. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Views!
Mountain Bearadise was amazing! Great views (including bears in the yard) and amenities (washer/dryer, hot tub, fire pit, swimming pools, etc). The bedrooms are on 3 different floors, which worked for our group, and we liked that the children's bedrooms did not have TVs. The cabin was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. The kitchen supported cooking for large crowds. The location is close to many hiking trails and the parkway, but the neighborhood was quiet with minimal traffic. Internet was fast and reliable. Hosts are informative about the area and very responsive. Requested duties at checkout are minimal. Cons: the AC took some time to cool the large space to our liking. We wish there were ceiling fans in all the bedrooms. The stairs are a bit steep for the young children. Two of the showers are small, thus hard to maneuver in, according to the 6'5" guest.

A week with the bears
My family and I had a great week. We saw a total of ten bears in five days. We found it very relaxing to sit on the back deck and wave back to the folks riding the Ober. The view of Gatlinburg was awesome and at night the lights in the valley and quietness of the towering mountains provide an atmosphere nothing short of a spiritual experience. Our host had everything laid out nicely and very well organized. I found the property to be exactly what was represented on line based on information provided. My family will definitely be returning. Thanks for a great week.

Gatlinburg Getaway
Perfect! We planned to stay as close to Gatlinburg as possible while still having the cabin experience. The location of this property was perfect! Only a 5-10 minute drive from the "strip" AND an amazing view of Gatlinburg!! The Cabin was everything we hoped it would be! The photos represent it very well. It has a 3 tier deck! It also has a backyard with a firepit! This is very rare for a cabin with such an amazing view. Plenty of room and activities inside as well. This cabin had everything we needed for our stay. It already has ALL of the basic necessities. The check in was so simple. The same with checking out. The hosts communicated everything you would need to know, not only by email, but there is also the most clever book inside the cabin with everything listed as well as information regarding restaurants and activities in the area. Be prepared, with a view like that you are on the top of a mountain. The roads are narrow and curvy and the driveway is tight but very sufficient. Such a great experience! We were hoping to see bears, but did not. We will definitely return!

The views were unbeatable and we had everything we needed during the stay. The hills as stated are very steep but after a few trips up and down not so bad. The firepit and gathering spots were beautiful but with all the bear activity we didn’t take the children off the decks lol. We had multiple sightings daily on the property beneath us and in the driveway but no issues and welcomed the experience! We enjoyed the cabin and family time!

Great mountain place
The checkin process was very easy and we could have checked in earlier, which was nice to know. Chris reached out to us to see if we needed anything, but we were good. I contacted Chris before we left so I had our questions answered earlier. There was an awesome view from the cabin and we saw bears there, even in the yard. We had fun watching the cubs play. I would highly recommend staying at this place.

Be aware but have fun.
This was a lovely well kept chalet. The roads are steep and narrow so do take that into account, but on days I didn't want to drive all the way down we just bought tram tickets from Ober which is right around the corner. Uber eats does deliver here too. I recommend bringing bear spray and definitely be aware. I encountered one on our first morning while checking out the property so we stuck with the buddy system after that. Over all great location, home, and amenities.

Truly Bearadise
We LOVED everything about this place. It rained quite a bit during our stay and the pool table, poker table, foosball, arcade games and hot tub provided plenty of fun. Despite ample warning to keep our car doors locked, we left them unlocked briefly while cleaning out the car and found a bear inside! A very nice police officer came to our rescue. I was able to get to the chalet in my little two wheel drive Kia Soul and park with no problem. The location is great. It was super clean and had plenty of starter items. Hosts very responsive. Clear documentation. We wanted for nothing. We were sad to leave!

Loving the view!
The view of Gatlinburg & the Great Smoky Mountains cannot be beat! The drive up is a little intimidating at first but you quickly acclimate-the directions from the host are the best approach. Their were some small issues but the host was very responsive. Plenty of indoor activities & we loved soaking in the jacuzzi every night-it was easy to use & access. The kitchen had plenty of dishes & cookware but we missed the email about bringing our own coffee. Be very bear aware. We saw bears EVERY DAY. They were easily diverted but surprisingly everywhere! You’ll want to keep the gates closed. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Nice mountain get-away
The view from the cabin is lovely and we enjoyed sitting on the balconies, grilling, soaking in the hot tub, etc. We did have to keep a close watch for bears though. We had at least one, sometimes two bear sightings each day very close to the cabin. We were glad we took bear spray but happily didn’t have to use it. The cabin met our needs and had ample space for 6 adults (3 couples) and 3 small children. We cooked most of our meals at the cabin and there were plenty of dishes, pans, utensils etc for our needs. We enjoyed using the game rooms, including billiards, arcade games, etc. The host was very responsive to all of our questions and needs. I would consider this nice overall, (more like cozy/ rustic rather than luxury). Overall, we had a wonderful time, and also enjoyed our time exploring Gatlinsburg & Pigeon Forge.
