The views are breath taking from the very moment you unlock the door. This is a beautiful,Thoughtfully appointed home built with TLC. We were so comfortable here and all of our four kids had plenty of their own space. The owner was each to reach and provided quick assistance. The house is clean and well appointed, especially in the kitchen. We will definitely be back!

Gorgeous Cabin with Beautiful Views!

This is a 10 plain and simple. Spent Christmas week there. The house has huge porches with views of the Smokys from each room! The kitchen is huge with EVERYTHING you need to cook and eat like a BOSS. The house is well stocked and the hot tub is a great plus! Making s’more s in front of the fire was also amazing! I wouldn’t hesitate to book this place in the future!

Beautiful mountain home

Our family of eight enjoyed a wonderful 5-night stay at this amazing property. The owner's pride in their home and consideration for their guests is evident throughout. The kitchen, bedrooms, and living room are all well-outfitted and decorated. Everyone said their beds were comfortable. The views from the cabin are stunning! We were in Townsend for our son's wedding, and Bear's Den made the perfect base for us. The newlyweds loved having their own studio bedroom and private balcony. We had an amazing time and can't wait to come back!

Exceeds all expectations!

This cabin was even better than the amazing photos can capture! The attention to detail in decor, cleanliness, maintenance, and guest convenience are truly unparalleled among all the vacation homes I’ve encountered. The home is magnificent and views majestic. The thought put into creating an enjoyable experience for guests really sets this experience apart. From ease of entry, to inviting aroma as you arrive. The kitchen was fully stocked with good cookware and appliances, welcoming seasonal decor, and amenities like soap, shampoo, marshmallow roasting sticks, s'more's making kit and a set of binoculars. Comfortable beds and bedding, a wine cooler, quality towels, awesome lighting-there are no corners cut. The hosts’ attention to detail, luxurious furnishings and commitment to excellence truly made this retreat feel like home.

Sweet!

The Bear's Den is absolutely stunning. Great mountain views from every room. It is very well appointed and feels like home. Close to the golf course club house so it's easy to get to the pool or have a cocktail close by. There is plenty of space for family activities, which we took full advantage of. Great place to unwind and spend quality time with loved ones. The owners are VERY responsive and accommodating. I was impressed with their communication and sincere efforts to make it an amazing stay with good memories to take with us.

If you were to look up the words perfect experience in the dictionary you would find a picture of Bear Den Cabin. Everything about it was perfect! The views were perfect, the accommodations were perfect, the location was perfect, the communication with the owner was perfect, the upkeep of the property was perfect and the memories we made as a family were perfect. Kurt and his wife really do go out of their way to produce a wonderful experience for those that rent their beautiful property. If you’re thinking of this as a vacation destination I promise you won’t find anything better.

Best view of the smokies

I rented this beautiful home for our annual moto trip this is by far the best house we have stayed in yet. Kurt was a wonderful host. Super nice guy. Townsend is a wonderful community. It has everything you need in this town. Great little places to eat and things to do. The view from the house is gorgeous. We had a black bear that visits early in the morning, just about every morning actually. The house is super clean with everything you need to stay for a day or a month. Kurt even had us a fresh baked apple pie, still hot when we got there. Plus snacks. I will definitely be renting this house next year.

Beautiful Home, Amazing Views

We had a group of young children, parents, and grandparents stay at the Bear's Den in late March. The communication with Kurt was easy and we were able to check in a little early since we arrived earlier than anticipated. The kids loved exploring the massive space, playing in the game room, driveway basketball, and the climbing wall was a surprise hit with all ages (4-9). The adults loved the sprawling porches, hot tub, and constantly changing views of the Smokies. I think their VRBO pictures are very professional and nice, which sometimes can be misleading, but in this case the space was bigger than we imagined and the views were even better. The drive up to the house is steep but well paved, and there are only a few other houses on the street so you have plenty of privacy. There was a bad storm one night and we lost power due to downed trees all over the mountain, but with the backup generator and seemingly soundproof windows, none of us even noticed until we woke up for breakfast. When we left in the morning, crews had already cleaned up all of the trees blocking the roads in this neighborhood and power was quickly restored. We would recommend this place to anyone looking to visit the area and plan on returning.

Outstanding family holiday in beautiful location

The good experience started from the initial booking, Kurt and Jill immediately made us feel welcomed with a personal note, and remained available during our stay if we needed anything. The property itself was also great, beautiful views overlooking the mountains, designed to maximize the view. The floor plan worked very well for us, with our two married children and two grandchildren A nice blend of private bedroom and bath space, with common family living areas. The balconies were perhaps my favorite, where grandsons could safely play while we enjoyed the view. The fire pit and s’mores were also a great hit. We would definitely stay here again.

Great Family Holiday Trip

We all had a great time at The Bear’s Den. The home was comfortable, beautiful, and well-appointed. The Christmas decorations were lovely as well as it was a late celebration for us. The kids were obsessed with the air hockey table. The view was truly magnificent and we got some great sunrise shots. Of particular interest was the album Kurt and Jill put together showing the entire building process from empty lot to present structure. Incredible and impressive. Thanks for your attentive hospitality and personalized gifts. Cheers -

Incredible Mountain Home - 5+ stars!

Very comfortable luxury home. We loved everything about this mountain home. The roads wind up to the top of the mountain where you find a beautiful view from the living room as soon as you walk in. The home has everything you’ll need from all kitchen equipment to cook just about anything at home. We were happy to find an instant pot and an air fryer. They have a full coffee bar with everything imaginable. The home is very tastefully decorated and has plenty of space. The owners provide a lot of personal items, kitchen supplies, and even snacks to make things easy. The beds were comfortable and there’s even a fan to help you sleep with a little background noise. They’ve really thought of everything and we’re also very easy to talk to throughout our visit. They checked in to make sure we were comfortable and had everything and more! We were lucky enough to see for baby bears and a momma on our way back to the cabin one night. Luxury, cleanliness, games, hot tub, views, gourmet kitchen, and within driving distance to the best hiking in the smoky mountains. We would definitely recommend booking this home and we hope to return for another visit. Definitely a 5 star rating!

Perfect place for making memories with your family

Our extended family had a small weekend family reunion in this beautiful home. It is the perfect setting for spending time with people you care about and would like to just sit and talk with while looking out at the amazing mountain views. Or cooking a meal with, or playing board games, or planning a hike in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It is the ideal gathering spot for making memories. A few things we particularly liked about this home: The kitchen is set up well for cooking and entertaining. The apartment above the garage is very well designed and allows for some privacy for a couple. The master bedroom and bathroom are conveniently located right off the great room. The master bed was extremely comfortable, not too firm, and had a foam mattress topper on it to ensure a good night's sleep. The master bath is spacious and pretty. We enjoyed the hot tub. Our nieces/nephews spent a lot of time in the game room -- a super fun place for them to hang out. The adults enjoyed sitting out on the decks for morning coffee, afternoon visits and, after dinner, watching the stars light up the night. There are large sliding glass doors that allow you to open up the great room to the main deck. It's important to note that you have unobstructed views of the woods and the mountains -- the view is really breathtaking and helps to make this a spectacular place to stay. All in all, this place deserves the 5-star reviews it consistently gets. I highly recommend it.

Bears Den beauty

Absolutely the most impressive mountain home we’ve stayed in. The moment you walk in the door you’re amazed by the attention to detail and awesome views. The house was comfortable and well stocked to meet our every need. The view from every deck was breathtaking making morning coffee perfect. We were blown away with the special touches done just for our family. We are already planning a return stay for next winter.

We would like to personally welcome you to our family's log cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains. We are very excited for you to stay in our dream home with amazing views and hope that you and your family have a wonderful vacation and enjoy it as much as our family does.

We are pretty unique hosts because we actually built this cabin as our dream home in late 2021. As the coffee table photo album will show, we did a lot of the work ourselves: all the stonework for the kitchen island, floor to ceiling fireplace and mantle; all the railings on the two-60-foot decks; the knotty pine tongue and groove in the lower level; the tile flooring; all the painting and landscaping, and so-so much more.

My wife Jill and I will be your hosts and are available to answer any questions you have prior to or during your stay at The Bear's Den, but we will leave you alone to relax once you have checked in and are all settled so you can enjoy your vacation.

Jill has thought of everything when it comes to stocking the house for you, so you are as comfortable in our cabin as you are in your own home.

We hope your family will enjoy The Bear's Den as much as ours does.

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft

We started looking at the Knoxville area because we wanted to be near our Daughter and Son-in law just over the border in NC, and the low cost of living (no state income taxes:)) and then we fell in love with the mountains! Equally, we were amazed at how friendly and genuine the people were. We were looking at water front property to build, but when we saw all the log cabins we decided on a log cabin with a great view of the mountains. Every time we drove up the Bear Den road we felt we really had a unique location and reminded of the incredible views we will have when we are finished. The build took the better part of two years. Constructing a home in the mountains is quite different than if you are a low-lander. Jill and I and our two son's Troy and Adam took on several projects our selves (see pictures on coffee table book). Lastly, every time we visited the lot we would stand still and noticed how quiet it was. No traffic or city 'noise'. It is rare in this world we live in to be able to sit outside at most all hours of the day and hear only the sounds of nature. And maybe you too will know the answer to the age old question: "Does a Bear fart in the woods?"
