New Cabin with great views , creekside on 15 Acres
Newly built log cabin in beautiful Wears Valley. Incredible mountain views with a Spring fed creek that runs next to the cabin. Located on 15 acres of the original family who settled Wears Valley and after over 200 years we are only the second family to own this land. Plenty of room to roam, sit in the creek-side gazebo and take a photo on the 100 year old Antique Sleigh used at Americas First Ski Resort, Sun Valley Utah. When you get home from a long day of hiking, touring or visiting the city relax in the new Hot Tub on our covered deck overlooking the creek and mountains. Check out more pictures , reviews, posts from former guests and Seasonal specials on our FB by the name Christmas Bear Cabins. You will fall in love with this private former mini family farm as you drive down the 1000 foot wooded drive that follows the creek right up to the Cabin. The new cabin not only gives you the privacy you want instead of staying in a tourist cookie cutter development where you pay twice as much to stay within a few feet of the next cabin with nothing but concrete pavement. The privacy and views are worth the stay but you are also just a few miles from one of the main lesser known entrances to the Smokies National Park and the most beautiful Valley and location in the Gatlinburg area. Close to Cades cove, Pigeon forge and only a short drive to Gatlinburg and all the attractions without the traffic and crowded mtns filled with cabins. No steep mtn drives , yet incredible mountain views of the Smokies on all sides of the valley. This cabin built like our last cabin built on Ski Mtn after the wildfires offers all the latest amenities and is sure to exceed your expectations for some of the lowest rates in the Gatlinburg area. We now offer a second Ranch House Cabin on the same property for those who have friends or families who want to visit but want their own place. It is also the same size, 3/2 Cabin but all on one floor and only a few stairs to get inside. Same great property, hot tub and views of the mountains. Go to vrbo and put in Property # 2628467 .

My teen daughters and I loved it so much and we were lucky enough to add 2 extra nights to our stay because we didn't want to leave. Everything was just as described and even better than we expected. It just gave us that feeling of home and happiness. The kitchen is so well stocked right down to a crockpot and a pizza pan. We look forward to staying again because we love the area that it is in as well.
We had a wonderful stay at the Christmas Cabin! It was beautifully decorated and so clean! The location was great. We will definitely stay again in the future.
This is out third time staying at this cabin. We love it and it feels like home. Always immaculately clean and super comfortable! The host was excellent in helping us to add on a day and in responding quickly to us when we had a problem not related to the cabin. Highly recommend this cabin!
Upon arrival the cabin was very clean, had a few questions and communicating with the owners was good. Loved looking at the mountains from the porch and spa. We are hoping to come back next fall and staying at this cabin again.
Second time staying here and it won’t be our last. Guy is wonderful to work with and quickly answers all my questions. Wonderful location….so clean. Can’t wait to go back.
We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Christmas Bear cabin!!! I spent a lot of time reading various cabin rental reviews online, and this cabin lives up to its fantastic reviews! It is immaculately clean and comfortable. The setting & location is very spacious & relaxing. Communication with the hosts was very timely & thorough. The Christmas decor adds to the great experience. We highly recommend!!!
The property was perfect for our needs and the hosts were very accommodating. The cabin was spacious and spotless. We enjoyed being on the outskirts of the major attractions and enjoyed the Mountain views from the front porch. We loved the Christmas theme. I definitely recommend this property and hope to return one day.
Our family really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The cabin was comfortable, clean, and quiet, with a great location that was away from the busy atmosphere of Pigeon Forge but still close enough to get to food, shopping, attractions and the Great Smoky Mountain national park quickly. We would definitely stay here again!
This was the perfect cabin for us. The location was right in the middle of all our scheduled activities. And it was wonderful to not have to worry about the children falling off a mountain when they walked outside.
We’re also Christmas fanatics so everyone loved the theme.
Communicating with the owner was a breeze as this was our first time using a VRBO property (I had lots of questions). The property was clean and comfortable.
The overall accuracy and booking process was very smooth and easy! When arriving, it was a bit confusing because the GPS doesn’t take you directly to the location, but almost. There is a numerical sign by the road and a tiny, narrow driveway that leads to the house. They have it lit with lights and signs and was very cute! The house was exactly as pictured and inside was just as beautiful as the pictures! We saw beavers and deers each day while staying and that was the best part! The hot tub was amazing! The only complaints, if you wanna call them that, because they weren’t such an issue that I wouldn’t go back, but the water pressure is not very strong and the hot water doesn’t last very long. The location was also perfect! I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a cabin retreat.
This cabin was perfect for our family of 5. It was especially cozy given the fact it’s Christmastime and it was all decked out for the holidays! The location was great and the property was super clean and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

About the host
Hosted by Guy and Tonia Melton
Married 46 years and came to Gatlinburg on our Honeymoon. We have visited most every year since. We love the area and 17 years ago bought our first small cabin on Ski Mountain. During the wild fires of 2016 it burned along with 2000 other cabins and buildings in Gatlinburg. In 2017 we rebuilt a beautiful cabin that the new one you now see is an exact replica but 20-25% larger with some great additions. After trying to get our neighbors to sell one of their properties to no avail so we could build another one on Ski Mtn for more family to visit during the same time we decided to sell and buy in Wears Valley which we think is the most beautiful area of the entire Smokies. After trees continuing to fall on ski mtn from the fires of 2016, power lines, steep drives we wanted a safer , less crowded and better views of the mountains. Wears Valley gave us that opportunity and instead of two half acre lots we got 5 lots totaling 15 acres with a stream running through them and beautiful mountain views. But this time with a flat drive way and roads getting there. We fell in love with Wears Valley a beautiful and still unspoiled part of the Smokies and Gatlinburg area. The bonus was we bought from the original family that settled Wears Valley the Crowson family which the valley was named after until about 100 years ago when it was named after a confederate war officer. The Crowson family has owned this land since 1802 and been living here since 1795 when the original family member aaron came to settle and make a home for his young family. The US Govt gave him the first land grant in the valley which was 2000 acres. The family has lived here since then and we bought from the 7th generation Crowson last year. The history is rich here. We now own the largest original piece bought directly from the first family. Their family cemetary is about 1/4 mile away with every generation Crowson buried there beginning with AARON. You can find it by googling it. You are allowed to visit.
Why they chose this property
The Why goes on and on. We have already given a big piece of it. History of over 200 years from the original family. Views of the mountains. The beauty of the Valley is breathe taking in every season . Peaceful and much less crowded than the touristy spots yet just minutes out of Pigeon Forge and the many famous attractions and about 12 miles from Gatlinburg.
What makes this property unique
Less crowded. Unspoiled. Peaceful. 15 acres of beautiful land with woods, creek, open spaces and beautiful views of the Smokey Mountains. Only 2.5 miles from the best kept entrance of the National Park here in Wears Valley. Close to Cades Cove, townsend and tubing and just minutes into Pigeon Forge. Stay in the middle of the History of Wears Valley on the original settlers land.
