Exterior:
Little Bear Chalet is a beautiful log cabin in a peaceful setting. A few cabins can be seen from the deck, but you still have plenty of privacy to enjoy your stay. Paved roads bring you all the way to the cabin, but the parking area is gravel. Two steps up and your own the covered part of the deck that leads to the entrance. The deck continues on around to the front where you can take in the amazing mountain view along the way. Several rocking chairs line the front, providing a place to sit back and enjoy all this area has to offer. A whimsical wooded area out front will leave you smiling, as you notice faces on the trees smiling back at you. The long range views of the Smoky Mountains here are ever changing, as the blue sky fills with clouds and then fades away again, the sunlight casts a wide spectrum of colors and shadows across the mountains, giving a different look to the view all through out the day. The far side of the deck has a hot tub. Sitting in the warm massaging waters and sipping a glass of wine make this a special place to retreat. The deck also has a gas grill, ideal for grilling juicy steaks for dinner. The side yard has a swing that sits near the fire pit. Roasting marshmallows over a crackling fire and listening to the crickets in the evening will add to the calmness this cabin brings.
