Bear Pause was the perfect cabin for our family! It’s just off the main road on a quiet dead end by the woods. It was peaceful and private without steep drives or being too far from town.The cabin itself was cozy and comfortable for our group of six. While the gathering areas were a bit smaller than they appeared in photos, it worked just fine for us. We especially loved spending time in the basement playing pool and the arcade game. The multiple decks were a great for privacy and enjoying your morning coffee.It was too hot to use the hot tub this trip, but we’ll look forward to it next time! The cabin was also very family-friendly. We greatly appreciated the pack n play for my 20 month old so we didn't have to bring one. We did bring our own baby gate because there's no door to the upstairs staircase and we wanted to keep her from climbing up the stairs.We also recommend bringing coffee or K Cups (only decaf was provided), travel blackout curtains (helpful for naps and sleeping in), and extra trash bags. The only trash bags there were those already in the bins when we arrived.Everything in the cabin worked as expected (the AC was wonderful during the heat!), and check-in was smooth. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to others looking for a cozy mountain getaway close to town.

Wonderful place

The house was clean and so comfortable. After a hectic day with a 2 year old running around Pigeon Forge, it was a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. It was minutes away from anything we wanted to do, and the Bear theme was present throughout the house, which was also fun with a young child. Would definitely stay there again

We loved our stay at Bear Pause -- the house was clean and comfortable and the views were great. We quickly learned that 2 full days in Pidgeon Forge was not enough but made the most e of the time we had. We would definitely stay at Bear Pause again. Thank you for such a great house!

Bear Pause House

It was decorated beautifully for Christmas inside and out! We love the 3 separate floors for each set of families with 3 bathrooms. The location was fantastic for being close to downtown and attractions. This house has plenty of room for 3 cars to park. This is the second year in a row we have used this house for our Christmas vacation.
