Great Getaway in the Great Smokey Mountains

This was our first visit to Gatlinburg and the cabin was perfect for our family of 3 (all adults). It was clean and comfortable with all of the amenities that one can ask for.The owners respond quickly to any questions that you may have. Check in was very easy and the cabin was well stocked with cooking equipment and the washer and drier worked as expected.The cabin is far enough away from downtown Gatlinburg but not too far. There is a nice Food City grocery store a short distance from the cabin as well. Everything was within a reasonable distance including Pigeon Forge. We thoroughly enjoyed eating lunch at the "Split Rail Eats" restaurant on the outskirts of Gatlinburg in the opposite direction of down town. The food was incredible and the staff friendly and accommodating.All in all we had a very pleasant experience with the rental of the cabin and will return in the not too distant future.

We love how we could just go to the cabin without going to an agency for arrival. We had no problem with the entry. The cabin was very clean and neat. We loved the location. We will differently stay there if possible on our next trip.

Family vacation

We wanted to stay away from all the tourist in Gatlinburg & be in a quiet location. This cabin was perfect! It was a short drive from everywhere we wanted to go. Wish we would have booked the cabin longer. We saw a black bear wondering around cabins by us. Made our stay perfect!

About the host

Hosted by David & Peggy Russo

Host profile image
We've been coming to the Smoky's since we first met. We married and now have 3 children. Our cabin is a dream come true for us.

Why they chose this property

We have lived in different parts of the United States and feel there is no place that matches the beauty of the Smoky Mountains.

What makes this property unique

Black Bear Falls Resort kept the natural beauty and added ponds and cascading waterfalls. While our kids have enjoyed swimming in the pool, one of their most favorite activities is feeding the fish and ducks. Our whole family enjoys walking around the community keeping track of all the wildlife we see.
