The Neighborhood:
Mountain Getaway

Located in the tranquil mountains of Gatlinburg, Tennessee, Bear Haven offers the perfect escape while keeping you close to all the action. Situated just 2 miles from downtown Gatlinburg, this cabin provides easy access to top local attractions like the Gatlinburg SkyLift Park, Ripley’s Aquarium, and the Ober Gatlinburg Amusement Park and Ski Area. You can enjoy breathtaking mountain views or take a short drive to explore the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

For dining, Gatlinburg has an impressive selection of restaurants. You can savor hand-cut steaks at The Peddler Steakhouse, located by the Little Pigeon River, or enjoy fine dining with a view at The Greenbrier Restaurant, known for its rotating seasonal menu​. If you're in the mood for Tex-Mex, head to Loco Burro for rooftop dining with downtown views​.

Shopping and entertainment are also nearby. Visit The Village Shops, a charming European-inspired shopping area, or explore Mountain Mall for unique local goods. Whether you're dining, shopping, or exploring, Gatlinburg has something for everyone, all within a short drive from your cozy cabin​


As with many cabins in the Smoky Mountains, you may occasionally see ladybugs or other small insects during colder months. This is a normal seasonal occurrence as they seek warmth. The home is regularly maintained and professionally serviced, but in a wooded mountain setting, small insects can still appear from time to time.

Getting Around:
If you’re heading to downtown Gatlinburg, driving is quick and easy—it’s just 4 miles away. However, once you're in town, parking can be limited, so you may want to park in one of the public lots and explore on foot.

For those who prefer not to drive, the Gatlinburg Trolley is an excellent option. The trolley system covers key areas of Gatlinburg and nearby Pigeon Forge, with stops near popular attractions, restaurants, and shopping centers. You can catch the trolley at multiple locations throughout town, making it a great way to get around without the hassle of parking. There’s even a free Parkway Trolley that operates seasonally, taking visitors up and down Gatlinburg’s main strip​. If you’re interested in exploring the nearby Great Smoky Mountains National Park, many trailheads are just a short drive away.

Uber and Lyft is also available.
