About this property

Bear-rific View - Unplug, unwind and enjoy creation’s beauty in your cozy cabin.

If your looking for a place to rest and unwind, you’ve found it. People say the cabin is cozy and feels like home away from home. The cabin has expansive views of the Smoky Mountains and of famous Mt Leconte. The cabin is just a little ways up and tucked away amongst the trees giving you excellent privacy and opportunities to see wildlife and the occasional black bear that makes its way along the ridge. The pics don’t do it justice.

When you’re home, the mountains are visible from most places in the cabin as natural light comes flooding in from the expansive windows. The real wood fireplace can keep you warm on winter days and adds to a cozy evening after dark. You can enjoy a book on an oversized chair in the bedrooms or on the balcony with your favorite beverage. After a hike in the park or a night on the town you can come home and slip into the hot tub or hang out on the large deck to unwind.

If solitude is not what you crave, you can be in Pigeon Forge in about10 minutes to enjoy your favorite restaurants and activities. If the kids are in tow, we have a game room with a pool table and vintage arcade games. Dollywood is nearby and is a family favorite. NOTE: There is three sets stairways and about 20 steps to reach the cabin and a narrow sidewalk between the first and second set. Please take this into account before you book.

Family Spring Break Trip

The road to the house was a little sketchy the first time driving it. But the higher up the Mountain you travel, the prettier the view, and the view was absolutely worth it!! The cabin was perfect for our family! My husband and I really enjoyed the master loft bedroom and my daughter enjoyed her private bedroom on the main floor. The windows were perfect, allowing you to see the mountain views from the majority of inside the home. Thank you so much for your hospitality! We will be returning on future trips!

Perfect getaway

The bear-rific cabin was exactly as expected. Mr. John was fantastic with communication. My husband, son, and I wanted a quiet weekend getaway and that’s exactly what we got. Loved that we could bring our dog. The drive up to the cabin is very scenic and steep! The views from basically any spot in the cabin were fantastic. Enjoyed making memories and left behind an ornament for their tree.

Beautiful cabin with gorgeous view from the mountain top. I especially loved the tradition of families leaving an ornament on the Christmas tree. The check in and out process was smooth. Everything is labeled for your convenience but John was always available for questions.

Anniversary Stay at Bear-rific

Being from the coast of NC Bear-rific offered a perfect getaway for our recent anniversary. John was a great host and the cabin was in an excellent location close to all attractions but isolated enough to offer wonderful mountain views and privacy to enjoy our morning coffee on one of the multiple decks.

Thanksgiving Trip 2024

We love to visit the Gatlinburg area at least once a year. We just love the scenic views and Dollywood! John and Lisa’s cabin was so much more than we expected! The view from the main window is breathtaking and was our favorite part to enjoy while drinking our coffee in the mornings! The road and driveway you have to drive to get to their cabin is a thrill ride in itself. Being from Louisiana where it’s flat, driving the mountain roads is a highlight for me. This did not disappoint! We hope we can enjoy your cabin again on our next visit! Thank you John for everything!

Clean and pet friendly

Nice cabin with a beautiful view. Conveniently located near Dollywood and other attractions. Driveway is a bit narrow and steep, but to be expected to get the lovely view. The cabin was clean. Hot tub was great after a day out and about. There are steps to get from the parking pad and then more up to the home. I would not recommend for anyone who has Issues with carrying luggage and supplies up steps, this wasn’t a problem for us but might be for others. No wifi but great 5g signal that allowed for tethering to my phone.

About the host

Hosted by John Thompson

Host profile image
We really enjoy sharing are cabin with others. It’s a very special place we are blessed to be its stewards. Our favorite thing to do when we’re there is go into the National Park to hike and experience the natural beauty of God’s creation and when we get back at the cabin, we like to watch the clouds and sun cast shadow across the the mountains as we decompress from modern life.

Why they chose this property

Fox Run is an early development and the lots are spacious with lots of natural landscape and trees playing host to the many birds and animals.

What makes this property unique

The location is on the point of a ridge facing directly at the Great Smoky Mountain NP. It offer unprecedented privacy while only being 7 minutes from Pigeon Forge. It sits on the ridge like a normal home, not hanging out over a steep terrain like most of the cabins that offer a view. It’s home away from home and we maintain it for ourselves and guest. It’s a special place that you will have to experience for yourself to truly understand.
