Smoky Mountains
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!

Amazing!
This was our first time out of Wisconsin for a family vacation. We had such a blast! The cabin was beyond amazing it worked perfect for our family of 5. The cabin was very clean and the location was perfect! We will definitely be returning! The only negative thing would be that we didn’t book to stay longer!

Cute rustic cabin in the hills :-)
We loved almost everything about the cabin ! There were 4 adults and we loved having 2 separate bedrooms and 2 separate bathrooms :-) we also loved having the King size beds :-) The only thing that was not my favorite was the fact that the top floor bedroom/bathroom seemed to be more for kids...not necessarily the bedroom decor but the bathroom didn't have things for adults...like a hair dryer. The master bedroom seemed to be more equipped for adults. Otherwise, we had a great time and loved the amenities. It was also a great location from the places we wanted to go. Thank you for your hospitality. The Riggs family

Comfortable place to stay
Owner is extremely easy to communicate with and very accessible when questions arise. The house was pretty clean overall, but we noticed crumbs on the rug in the living room when we checked in. Overall, we had an enjoyable stay and the house was centrally located to the national park and to downtown Gatlinburg.

Visiting Gatlinburg Convention Center
We enjoyed our stay at Black Bear Cabin. The cabin is a bit remote if you are visiting the Convention Center, but it is in a quiet area away from the crowds. AC works great if you are on the first floor, but difficult to cool the upstairs bedroom without overcooling the first floor. Towels need to be replaced. Would be convenient to have a few dishwasher pods available on check-in.

Cozy dream cabin
Very clean, well-organized cabin! For the three of us it was spacious & cozy at the same time for family bonding. The view of the smoky mountains is breathtaking especially during sunrise in the back porch. It was a dream cabin with all the amenities we needed. Peggy the owner answered our questions promptly. Safe place to walk for our exercise in this little community of Black Bear lodge. So accessible to any routes to downtown with scenic drive. Coming from a flat landscape Houston I will definitely recommend this place to friends. Thank you Peggy❤️

Perfect location!
Property was just as described in the listing. Plenty of room for our family and we enjoyed how close the cabin was to all of the area attractions and Pigeon Forge. The hot tub was a fabulous perk to use after a long day of exploring and doing activities. 10/10 experience and would definitely stay here again.

Great cabin and location
We loved our stay this past weekend and had such a nice getaway. The cabin was very clean and well represented in the pictures. There are quite a few roads that wind to get to the cabin and some of our night drives were a little scary, but we managed it! We were hoping to see some bears, but weren’t lucky! Would love to come back again!

Love you blackbear!!! Accommodations are very comfortable, and out of the way of the hectic Gatlinberg. We love the spa after long days of hiking. Accommodations offer everything you need during your stay. Hope to be back soon!!

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.
