No matter if you're looking for a romantic getaway or a quick weekend away with the family, Lazy Bear Lodge (sleeps 4) is the perfect Smoky Mountain cabin for your vacation.
Located just outside of town on the edge of Wears Valley, Lazy Bear Lodge is a short 10 or 15 minute drive from the action of Pigeon Forge and Sevierville, but still far enough away to actually FEEL the comforting call of the mountains.
And talk about mountains! The cabin is located near the top of a windy road in a quiet little cul de sac. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park lies literally in the back yard, jutting up majestically from the back porch (and private hot tub). And from the wooden rocking chairs on the front porch, you can gaze through the trees and into Wears Valley in the distance.
The cabin itself is appointed just as you'd hope and although it's small in size, it's filled with charm. As you walk into the front door, you're greeted by a soaring 15' ceiling. A sleeper sofa and leather chair face a wood burning fireplace, giving the perfect place to get cozy on a chilly night. (Be sure to pick up some wood on the drive in if you want to use it!) The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need - Keurig and a coffee maker, pots, pans, silverware, glasses, blender, crock pot, microwave, iron and board, washer and dryer. Just bring any food you want and you're all set.
There is a Roku HD TV so you can bring any of your streaming accounts from home. (If you don't have any, just reach out and I can get you set up) There is also a small library of DVDs in case nothing is on! Feel free to use the XBOX 360 with two controllers and games if you want your video game fix while on vacation.
The bedroom features a king bed and extra comfy mattress, which is perfect for getting a great night of sleep. And the bathroom has a Jacuzzi tub and unique waterfall bathtub spout and tree shower head which gives a great country quirky feel.
On the outside, there's a private hot tub on the back porch to warm your muscles and help you relax after a long day exploring the area. And be sure to take advantage of the charcoal BBQ grill when you're ready to cook up some tasty dinner as well. Best of all, there are plenty of chairs on both the front and back porches so you can take in nature - the birds chirping in the mornings, the wind rustling through the trees, or maybe a fox or bear walking by (if you're lucky!).
When you're done relaxing in the hills, the entire area is chock full of things to see and do. Head to Great Smoky Mountains National Park for a long hike and your eyes peeled for wildflowers, white-tailed deer and 60+ species of birds that are there year round. If it happens to be rainy, climb into your car and take a drive through the park for glimpses of historic buildings dating back to the 1800s. In either case, pack a picnic lunch and make a day of it!
Dollywood is the beating heart in the area and has something for all ages, whether it be amusement park rides or fun live entertainment. Gatlinburg Golf Course is there if you have a desire to get in a few holes... But most don't know that there is a Harrah's Casino a short drive away in Cherokee, NC. And of course you can ski at Ober in Gatlinburg as well as Cataloochee Ski Area in North Carolina if you want to get some half decent shredding action.
For a couple seeking a relaxing retreat or a small family looking for a getaway, there's no better place than here in the Smoky Mountains. Don't miss out on Lazy Bear Lodge - book your stay today!
** Please note that for some folks, Apple Maps doesn't give an accurate location.

RING CAMERA
***
We have a Ring security system set up which monitors the outside area. There are no cameras inside the cabin or watching the hot tub area so your privacy is assured.
CLEANING
***
Our team will be following all CDC guidelines on cleaning ; using EPA registered products to thoroughly clean ; disinfect so you can feel more comfortable staying at our cabin.
GETTING AROUND THE AREA
***
The entire Smoky Mountain area is very hilly (After all, it IS the Smoky Mountains!) so do yourself a favor and download an offline map in your Maps program. This will let you navigate to our cabin and around the area even if you don't have cell coverage. Neat, right??!
To do this, it's easy:
1. Open the Maps app and log in.
2. Search for Pigeon Forge. Zoom in/out so that the map you see contains everything from Gatlinburg on the bottom to Sevierville on the top. Don't be afraid to zoom way out because it'll get everything in between.
3.

On Android: Tap the name, select Download, click Download
We strongly recommend you come with your car as that will give you the freedom to explore and enjoy the beautiful Smoky Mountains area. As you already know, we offer free parking spots.
You generally wont need to have 4wd for the cabin as the roads are well maintained.

Loved the cabin and felt right at home after we arrived. Very cozy feeling and the bed was so comfy!
We used Google maps for directions (as suggested) and didn’t have any issues finding the place.
Everything worked and we didn’t need anything extra during our stay.- Posted: 3/27/2025

Peaceful
Great property, very clean, peaceful and serene.The pics you see online is exactly what it looks like. The bed was super comfortable. We saw 3 bears playing behind our cabin and they came up on the back porch. If you go in the winter though i highly highly recommend a 4wd only or you want be able to get back down if it snows. We stayed during the winter storm jan 2025 and if we didn't have a 4wd we would had been stuck up there.And you have great views.- Posted: 1/13/2025

Smoky mountain stay
Great cabin, perfect for just my wife and I. I was pleasantly surprised by the location, far enough off the beaten path, but not to far from all the other things to do, especially getting into the park. Would definitely do it again.- Posted: 10/18/2024

What a great getaway for these grandparents
We loved the cabin. We had a great retreat between family events. Our first visit to the smokies and definitely not the last. We love the hot tub, indoor and out. We saw a lazy bear!- Posted: 9/12/2024

Great Getaway near Great Smoky Mountains
Great location for some privacy close to the national park. Still conveniently located to get to multiple parts of the park, food and shopping options, as well as Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We were very comfortable and greatly enjoyed our stay!- Posted: 9/6/2024

Beautiful property
Overall, our stay was great. The property was clean, check in was easy, and the bed was comfortable. We had an issue with the water our first day there but Justin was quick to respond and solve the issue (the HOA replacing a water filter at the time) We saw a lot of bears- 17 to be exact. (14 of them were right at the property) They were cool to see, but my car was broken into twice by the bears and we were left with some damage on my jeep. Of course we know that’s not Justin’s fault, it’s the area and the bears are to be expected in the smoky mountains. Bear spray at the property would probably be a good idea. Everything else was great and we enjoyed our stay.- Posted: 8/10/2024

Stunning and Cozy
I had never been to the area before and I wanted a space for me and my two pups to really enjoy. Although we only spent one night, I absolutely loved it. Everything was so clean and just gorgeous. I fully intend on coming back, and definitely for a longer stay!- Posted: 7/8/2024

Love this cabin!
This cabin is beautiful inside and out. It's in a quiet, wooded area with just a few other cabins around at the end of a fairly long road, so there's no traffic. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are planning to return again.- Posted: 7/12/2024
Colleen Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your stay at my Lazy Bear Lodge. I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful and secluded location of the cabin. I would love to have you back for another visit in the future. Thanks again for choosing my property for your vacation.Smoky Mountain Holiday staff

Great getaway!
Cozy and well-equipped cabin with an extremely comfortable king size bed. We brought our dog who was right at home, although a bit traumatized by a mama bear who appeared 10 feet from the front door as we started a walk. We decided to forgo any more walks and found dog parks instead. Justin was great at communicating with us.- Posted: 6/8/2024
Thanks for the review, Pam! I'm so happy you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Bear Lodge and found the cabin cozy and well-equipped.

Relaxing and great get a way
Very welcoming, cozy and relaxing vibes all around. The hot tub was great and just what the doctor ordered to relax even more. Centrally located to Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Very quiet. Leaving for a show in Pigeon Forge at 11:30 am on Thursday morning. Had just backed out of the parking space and looked up to see Momma Bear and 5 cubs just ambling down the street. We were very cautious and watched as they strolled to our neighbor’s back porch and sat for a brief time while Momma groomed the cubs. The sighting made a great time even better. We would highly recommend for a stay and we intend to return.- Posted: 5/31/2024

Nice place to stay
We had a great stay. The place was very clean but you need more forks and towels. One towel set per person for four night stay does not work well. It was fine since we brought some towels ourself but one more big towel would have been great. We only had two forks but we made it work. We would stay here again. It was in a great location. We hiked all day and sat in the hot tub every night. Thanks for sharing your home with us.- Posted: 5/25/2024
Hi Barbara! Thanks for the review! Glad you had a great stay and enjoyed the location and amenities, especially the hot tub.

Best regards, Justin at Lazy Bear Lodge.Smoky Mountain Holiday staff

Peaceful Getaway
Loved the location at the end of a cul-de-sac. Very peaceful and quiet. Backed to Smokey Mountain National Park with no neighbors behind you. Cabin was clean and had basic supplies and amenities. Communication and check-in was easy. We would love to go back again. Easy short drive to the park. Bed was comfortable.- Posted: 4/29/2024

Lovely, Cozy, Convenient
My husband and I stayed with our dog, and the home was great. The bed was comfortable (this is huge!), and we had everything we needed. We had one hiccup, contacted Justin, and problem resolved! Happy with the prompt response. This location is close to the Park without going into Gatlinburg and the masses of people, but should you want Gatlinburg it's close and easy to get to. While the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, knives etc. there were no additional amenities - salt, pepper, storage bags, etc. so be sure to bring your own (we always do!) WiFi connection was solid. And the home is at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there is no thru traffic and things are quiet. We enjoyed our stay!- Posted: 4/20/2024
Hello, Sonja. Your getaway sounds absolutely lovely! It's awesome that the home had everything you needed, and kudos for that comfy bed - definitely a game-changer! So glad to hear I was quick to help out with any hiccups. And how great is it to have the best of both worlds: close to the park and a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle? Thanks for sharing your wonderful experience!Smoky Mountain Holiday staff

Much Needed
Don’t even know where to start… When we first pulled up the cabin looked nicer than the pics online. First thing when we walked in the cabin was in EXCELLENT shape!! You would never know that it was a pet friendly cabin. The cleaners deserve and huge pat on the back and wish would have had more cash on hand for tip then we left. The cabin looked nice online but was so much better in person, was surprised to see a 55” tv in living room and a 50” in bedroom. I was curious about the shower but it was actually pretty cool and can say we have never stayed in a cabin with a shower like that before lol Was really cool to have a real wood burning fireplace. The cabin was great with absolutely everything you would need for a great stay! The hot tub was perfect and really peaceful and private. We loved the location of the cabin at the top of that mountain with nothing above you looking down and was so peaceful that you didn’t hear traffic running up and down the roads. The area was amazing From “hillbilly’s restaurant” delicious breakfast and “Heavenly Roast” great frappe’s and a real coffee shop!! If you are looking for some of the most breath taking views while never leaving your vehicle the entrance is literally right down the road. We headed out to the foothills parkway and enjoyed the missing link then onto the tail of the dragon and on to Fontana dam. From there we followed the road to Cherokee and over the mountain back to gatlinburg. We even saw elk crossing the road!- Posted: 3/25/2024
