Bears Escape Cabin is a great location to try out Dollywood — rides that go 60 mph through four inversions and a zero-gravity roll. Of course, the 200-foot-high coaster’s cars are built to look like the national bird. Wonderful Country shows and music. Great restaurants and shopping.
Some of our favorite hikes are: Mingo Falls Mingo Falls is on the Cherokee Indian Reservation (Qualla Boundary), just outside Great Smoky Mountains National Park. No special permits are required for access to the reservation. At 120 feet tall, the waterfall is one of the tallest and most spectacular in the southern Appalachians. The hike to the waterfall is only 0.4 miles in length, but is considered moderate in difficulty. Access Trail: Pigeon Creek Trail Trailhead: From Oconaluftee Visitor Center, drive south (toward Cherokee) on US-441 and take the second left onto Big Cove Road. At the first stop sign turn left and drive 4.5 miles to Mingo Falls Campground, where the trail begins. Juney Whank Falls Juney Whank Falls is divided into an upper and lower section. Both can be viewed from the footbridge which crosses Juney Whank Branch at the falls. Together they drop 90 feet from top to bottom. The trail to the waterfall is 0.8 miles roundtrip and is considered moderate in difficulty. Grotto Falls Trillium Gap Trail meanders through an old-growth hemlock forest and actually runs behind the 25 foot high waterfall. The cool, moist environment near the falls is ideal for salamanders and summer hikers. The hike is 3 miles roundtrip and considered moderate Trailhead: From the parkway in Gatlinburg, turn at traffic light #8 and follow Historic Nature Trail into Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Take Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail to stop #5 where there is a large parking area. This one is close and absolutely beautiful. I last hiked it with my 60 year old mother and 4 nieces and nephews ranging in age from 3-11 years old. We saw 3 bears at a distant, swam in the reflective pool of the falls, and had a fun-filled day without over doing it.

Spent an anniversary weekend here and it was amazing! Great location, close to downtown Gatlinburg as well as a lot of hiking trails! Will definitely stay here again!!
Had a great time in Tennessee at this cabin. Private and tucked away while all the conveniences of close to town. Lots and lots of things to do, places to eat, trails in the national park, etc, etc! Thank you for the opportunity to be there!
This is the perfect location for a family weekend get away. It feels seccluded in the woods but is a short drive from Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. It is cute and clean. We had the two of us and two kids. The games down stairs and hot tub were a hit. Host very helpful with getting our reservation done through the site.
Great location and lovely place. Had everything we needed to make it a great stay. Clean, stocked, and tons of fun things to do. Just be ready for a drive up the mountain!
Perfect cabin nestled in the side of the mountain. Conveniently located between Gatlinburg and pigeon forge. The cabin was beautifully decorated and had EVERYTHING we wanted and needed for our getaway! Definitely will be back!
We book this cute cabin and we had a great time! It is quite, close to everything and very cozy. It felt like we are home. Thank you so much! We’ll comeback soon.
Beautiful cabin. Loved it being such a nice size with 2 full baths. We stayed 3 nights. Nice hot tub which we enjoyed a lot. Our only disappointment was the air hockey game wouldn’t work but everything overall was wonderful!
We enjoyed our stay very much! Cabin was very clean, comfortable and quiet. No issues at all, everything was exactly as described. Felt like we were deep in the woods although we were close to downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, just a short drive. We would stay here again!
This home was very beautiful and comfortable. The view from the balcony was awesome too. With snow and ice in the forecast, the road was a little intimidating and we were concerned what would happen in the event we were stuck for longer than our booking. Overall very nice stay.
