There are no other cameras and nothing that would impede on your privacy. IMPORTANT: Out of respect for the holidays and our employees, we do NOT allow ANY check-ins or outs on Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Day NO PETS ALLOWED OF ANY KIND IN THIS CABIN. Check-In: \*3 pm - there is NO check-in office, you go straight to the cabin Check-Out: \*10 am - Please follow our checkout guidelines. Fireplaces: \*On During: October 1st - April 1st Common Concerns: \*Road Conditions: Some of our cabins are on steep, narrow, curvy, mountain roads. If you are concerned about road conditions to get to a cabin, please feel free to ask us! None of our cabins requires a 4-wheel drive under normal weather conditions, but some do in inclement weather. \*TV & WiFi: We do have TVs and WiFi in most of our cabins. There are times when heavy cloud cover, weather systems, mountains, or trees will cause problems with the signals. We always want our guests to have the comforts they want on vacation, but there are times we cannot control this problem. \*Pests & Wildlife: Here in the Smoky Mountains, we have lots of native bugs and wildlife. All of our cabins are treated for pests, but there are times you will find bugs or even have trouble with bugs. Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies, and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin, and you'll probably see them alive/dead on windowsills, in vents, etc. Rest assured that your cabin has regular pest control and is professionally cleaned, including bug removal, before and after your stay. However, these bugs come back right away, and unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done about them until the season passes. Please never feed, taunt, or approach any wildlife. This is their home, and we are the visitors. \*There are no refunds for storms or power outages. If there is a power outage, there will be no water and potentially no heat. Storms can also make roads impassable, so if a storm is in the forecast during your reservation, come prepared with water and non-perishable food, etc. THE LOCATION: OUTDOORS: Great Smoky Mountains (surrounding), Swinging Bridge (2.7 miles), Wild Laurel Golf Course (4.0 miles), Next to Heaven Ranch/Ziplining (7.0 miles), Spruce Flat Falls (9.0 miles), Meigs Falls (10.4 miles), The Sinks Falls (11.5 miles), Cades Cove Riding Stables (13.4 miles) EAT & DRINK: Smokin Joes (2.4 miles), Trailhead Steak & Trout (2.7 miles), Apple Valley Mountain Village & Cafe (2.8 miles), Brianna's Italian Restaurant And Cuisine (3.2 miles), Misty Morning Cafe (3.5 miles), Cades Cove Cellars (3.5 miles) Burger Master Drive In (4.3 miles), The Riverstone Restaurant (4.4 miles), Elvira's Cafe (8.1 miles) NEARBY CITIES: Downtown Townsend (2.0 miles), Cades Cove (18.7 miles), Pigeon Forge (20.1 miles), Sevierville (23.1 miles), Gatlinburg (25.0 miles), Knoxville (32.1 miles) AIRPORT: McGhee Tyson Airport (25.2 miles) FEES: The management company of this cabin charges a $20 per stay Damage Waiver Fee to every customer.

The Bear Meade Cabin was absolutely perfect! The cabin was very clean and well cared for. The decor was very "cabin in the woods". The upstairs family room had big comfy chairs for reading or TV watching. We absolutely loved the hot tub. It is set back in the woods and the driveway is VERY steep but the setting is beautiful and worth the steep drive. It is located in Townsend so it took 40-45 minutes to get to Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge but the drive through the park was stunning so we didn't mind it. ##### Cherri A.

One family 2 adults and two kids, we had a great time. Cabin was clean and comfortable. We were not able to make upstairs big TV work, appeared to be some problem with cable service, but the downstairs TV worked fine. In regards to previous comments about driveway: it is not very steep and there is enough parking space for a couple of SUVs. ##### Michael Y.

We do not and even sitting on porch gives no sun. So for us we want something different next time ##### Melanie S.

Unfortunately the hot tub was broken when we arrived. The property manager quickly offered two other properties where we could move that also had hot tubs. The responsiveness of the property manager was excellent. While we did not sleep in this location, it was very clean when we arrived. The cabin is nicely configured with everything you could need. I would recommend. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Bill C. 16 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Had a wonderful time! I could stay in a pig sty and be happy but my wife is a bit more discerning than I. She was very impressed with the cleanliness of the cabin and also with kitchen. She had everything she needed to do her magic in the magic. Even I noticed we had "real" plates and "real" silverware, not just the cheap stuff you find in so many rental places. The chairs in the downstairs living area were also very comfortable; I noticed that immediately as I have a bad back yet I was very comfortable. The only area of improvement I can really think of is if the TV had been in the living area instead of the bedroom so you could sit and watch. Yes, we could have gone upstairs and sat and watched the TV up there, but the sitting up there wasn't as comfortable as downstairs. All in all, we had a great time and really appreciated the beauty of the area. ##### Bill C. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ruth G. 12 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful cabin We loved our stay at a Bear Meade cabin. There were four of us - my husband and I in the downstairs room and our twin 5 year old in the upstairs room. Plenty of space for us. Nice kitchen with a variety of dishes/pots/utensils/etc. so we could cook some of our meals. Good size table for meals and games. Also an outside table in the porch for picnics. The girls loved the porch swing, having their own living room upstairs, the stuffed bears, and the hot tub for warming up after cold swims. My husband and I loved the quiet (close to neighbors but in the woods so you feel a nice sense of seclusion), the door in our bedroom out to the porch/hot tub, the overall setup etc. We only had one problem while we were there - a leak from the upstairs bathtub into the downstairs bathroom, but management came out and fixed it the next day. Very timely and helpful. Overall, we loved it, and we would definitely come again! Be aware that the driveway is fairly steep, but our van was able to manage it just fine. ##### Ruth G.

Pictures used for the website must be very old. The cabin needs more through cleaning. Large roach bugs in cabin. Roach bug crawled across my foot during shower. Another roach bug in vanity sink after shower. A spider was crawling across the bath towel. Lots of mildew on outside porch furniture. Shot bulbs in several light fixtures. No window covering on front door half window. We have been coming to the Smokies for over 30 years and this is the worst lodging experience that we have ever had. We will not return to this cabin. It is listed as a resort. This is no resort! ##### Katherine J.

The appliances and items provided were high quality. ##### Jesse W. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ---
