Nice cabin! The reason I gave 4 stars is the towels and linens didn’t smell fresh. I would suggest printing directions out prior to leaving. I lost my signal and therefore lost Maps.

The cabin was cozy, great location, and as expected. It was a quick drive to anything we wanted to do and a fairly private feel. Beautiful view and of course we were ecstatic to see bears walking up the road. Our only complaint was the terrible TP and the old drip coffee maker instead of a Keurig :)

The chalet was beautiful, but not as clean as it should’ve been and definitely needed more paper products we had to purchase our own toilet paper and there were six of us staying and we got exactly 6 towels and six washcloths. We were there for four days. We had to do laundry a few times.

We had a great time at this cabin. As flat-land prairie dwellers, we were mostly intimidated by the steep roads and turns, as it is decently high on the mountain. But the lovely views make up for it. It was peaceful and quiet. We chose this location partly because Ober Mountain is less than a mile away. And the other reviewers were NOT kidding about the bears. We saw bears every morning and evening. Lock your doors, and have someone watching your car as you carry things in and out....a bear got in our car within 30 min of arriving. Thankfully only left muddy footprints! The loft area was perfect for our 4 teens to hang out, and the kitchen table easily sat all 7 of us. I second the advice about approaching the driveway from only 1 direction due to the angle with the road. We loved staying at the Honey Bear!

Sisters trip to Gatlinburg!

My 3 sisters and I meet everyone year for a weekend trip. We chose Gatlinburg and the Honey bear Chalet for this year's trip. The Honey Bear was perfect for us. Very comfortable beds. A great kitchen. And a beautiful porch with a beautiful mountain view. We had a couple of bear visitors two mornings. We loved watching them meander down the mountain. The location of the cabin was perfect! 10 minutes from the Grest Smoky Mountains and 5 minutes from Gatlinburg! We spent a lot of time hiking in the park and then enjoyed delicious dinners in town.I highly recommend the Honey Bear cabin!

Quiet, spacious, good location for the park.

As title suggests, overall it was a positive experience and we had a decent stay.Excellent location to access the National Park as you don’t have to deal with downtown Gatlinburg. Quiet neighborhood so we slept peacefully. There was plenty of space for the family in all aspects.The listing description is accurate, however, I’m not sure how long ago the refresh happened, but the place needs more love…again.
