Bourbon Bear Lodge

We enjoyed our stay. Upon arrival our toddler kept saying it was “amazing” she loved the games upstairs and the hot tub. It is located in a nice area covered in trees. Other houses are nearby but not too close. The house is near Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge!

We had a great stay! The amenities and activities were just what our family was looking for, it was close to our desired attractions and Justin was very helpful and responsive.

Great house, lots to offer for our family.

We had a fabulous stay and could not have been more happy with the cabin! The location was quiet and away from crowds but still just minutes away from everything we came to see. Amenities were great and our family loved the games and hot tub! Would come back again.

Great location, game room and overall cleanliness. WiFi was spotty and we had to call to get a new gate code, but all in all we loved our time spent at this location. They were very easy to get in contact with.

We booked this beautiful cabin for my daughter’s 13th bday! She and her friend loved it. Lovely location fairly close to activities and shops. The hot tube was their favorite thing to do at the cabin. The host communicated quickly if I had any questions. We also used this opportunity to make some great content for our marketing company! Go check out the video we shot on insta @Luxlinkstrategies. Overall great experience!

We actually got snowed in while we stayed at this cabin but it ended up being okay. All of my kids ranging from 10-16 never was bored with everything you could do in the cabin and I enjoyed the scenery. Definitely would stay again.

The cabin was perfect for our family vacation. Located close to all of the things we wanted to do. Will definitely book through them again.

This was our first vacation with our children where we stayed somewhere besides a hotel for a night. We had high expectations and those were not let down. We spent most of our time at the cabin and enjoyed the views and all the extra amenities. Thank you for having us!

Great cabin in a good location. Bit of a drive to get to downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge but close to Dollywood. The kids really enjoyed the games this cabin had to offer and there was enough room for the 6 people in our group to be comfortable. We had to get a gate code upon arival that wasn't given to us up front but the booking staff was easy to contact and able to immediately provide us with what we needed. I would recomend this cabin to others.

This was a very cozy, comfortable cabin. We enjoyed our weekend stay especially the fireplace in the den. The grill was great and the beds were very comfortable for everyone.

I absolutely recommend this cabin, it was everything we expected and more! Clean, cozy, and the 2nd floor game room was a huge + for my grandson. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

It was awesome

clean and very secluded nice little cabin hood

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It’s checked all of our boxes from convenient location, adequate space for our family and loaded game room. The pics/listing are accurate. Communication with host was great and they made sure our stay met expectations. Our only negative is the cabin does have a smell to it. It’s noticeable when you walk in and definitely consumes your clothes to be noticeable when you leave. This happened with our last cabin rental also… so maybe it’s a log cabin thing? Overall we were satisfied with this property and the price.

My family loved the cabin! It's the perfect location and the cabin is cozy and a lot of fun with the game room!! We saw a black bear our first day right after entering thru the gate. I think that made my son’s whole trip! I’ve sent the link to several friends and we plan to come back in March.

We enjoyed the stay for a few days to get away. Close enough to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge but, still in nature.

- Posted: 9/29/2024

Perfect cabin! Tucked away with privacy in the woods but still close enough to everything we wanted to do!

- Posted: 9/8/2024

Everything was great from the communication to the cabin itself. We had a very fun and relaxing week and would definitely recommend it.

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin! It was clean. Owner was very responsive. Not too far away from everything, but you definitely feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere. Kids loved the pool table. Perfect place to relax between our other adventures!

This was a very lovely place secluded up in the hills outside of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. The neighborhood is gated and very quiet. The cabin was comfortable, the kids loved the air hockey table and the gaming systems, and overall we quite enjoyed our stay. I don't know if we'll ever return to the Smokies, but if we do we will definitely look into staying here again. Also, if you haven't already been warned, black bears are everywhere. We had a mother and three cubs pay us a visit not long after grilling out. As the cabin is in the woods, be very aware of them and that your presence may call them to pay you a visit.

This property is close to town, and easily accessible. It had everything we needed. Highly recommend. As 2 single women with children, we felt very safe. The game room was a hit!
