About this cabin rental

Bears Among Us is VERY close to DT Gatlinburg, Ober Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Park Entrances.

My log home is made hand-hewn logs unlike all of the newer homes recently built. The bears actively go by my house and often explore my deck or try to get into guests cars.

I love Chalet Village North and my house which is not on the main road so much more privacy and little traffic. It is conveniently accessible from two of the main roads. We finally choose our name after a mom and her two baby bears visited us several times (actually walking up onto our deck and looking around).

Getting Around is a SNAP. Go down Wiley Oakley to get to Pigeon Forge or down Ski Mountain Road to get to Downtown Gatlinburg. Bears Among Us is on Oak Place which is a road that see's little traffic.

There are only two other homes up our road and both sit behind my house. So you can sit on the front porch looking toward Mt. LeConte with you cup of coffee in your PJs. It looks east toward the mountains with no other houses below us like many other places. We see No Roofs, only nature. We are high enough and away from the road, unlike many homes for rent, so you can jump into the hot tub in your birthday suit if you wish.

Bears Among Us is a true log cabin with a comfortable interior with large couches and chairs, a nice eat in dining table and fully appointed kitchen.

The bathrooms are all done in tile and bling and there are two large king beds. A Full Size Smudge Proof Stainless Steel Refrigerator, Dishwasher, Microwave, Stove and Under Mount Sink is ready for you. And yes we have plenty of dishes so you can cook "at home" if you want. There is a crockpot, mixer, skillets, pots and pans plus some sugar and spice and everything nice.

We often use VRBO when we are travel and do not like going into a totally empty place that doesn't even have the basic daily household amenities.

The home has two bedrooms of which one is located in the loft. At the top of the stairs is a nook with a fold down Futon. It has a 42" TV.

There is a King Size bed along with another full sized bath with a built in cabinet where you can keep all your grooming and beauty supplies while at Bears Among Us.

The downstairs bedroom has a corner juccuzi tub. The tub includes a heater that comes on when the whirlpool is turned on. It is a great experience to be able to lounge in the tub while watching your favorite show on the flat panel TV that is mounted to the wall. This can be articulated to view from the bathtub or the bed, wonderful. Above the tub are some dimmable vintage lights that can be set to just the level you want by sliding a small toggle that is part of the switch.

The Master Suite also has a King Sized Master Bed, a Bose Soundlink (so you can play the music you like by just linking your device to the unit) and an LED light system that you can control to get the perfect atmosphere for you.

When you walk into Bears Among Us you will see a stone wood-burning fireplace in the middle of the room with a a 65" Sony Ultra 4K TV above it.

We are often asked about pets. Our other vacation rental is pet friendly as we love our dogs and they are always with us. We found that there isn't very many pet friendly places in the National Park and when we had some bear visitors we decided that Bears Among Us would not be the best place for pet guests. So although dogs have been in my home before this isn't the place for pet guests.

When you leave Bears Among Us you can get to Pigeon Forge in about 15 minutes and Gatlinburg in 10 minutes or be in the National Park in 8 minutes.

So much to do and what a great home away from home awaits you at Bears Among Us.

We recently stayed at Bears Among Us in Gatlinburg, and our experience was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we booked, our host Pamela was quick to respond, incredibly accommodating, and truly made the entire process smooth and stress-free.The cabin itself was spotlessly clean and beautifully cozy. We especiallly loved the wood-burning fireplace. The photos online truly don’t do it justice—it’s even better in person. The hot tub was perfectly clean and already warm and ready when we arrived, which was such a treat after a long day of traveling. If we had one suggestion, it would be to add a small step to make getting in and out of the hot tub a bit easier. We also loved the in-room jacuzzi, which added a very romantic touch to the cabin and made the stay feel extra special.Overall, our stay was amazing, and we would absolutely stay at Bears Among Us again. Highly recommend!

Loved the location and host was very good; Cleaners didn’t finish till 4:30 so slightly after that when we were able to get in; hot tub had certainly been cleaned as it was still very cool and unable to use till late. Would definitely stay again- lovely spot…
6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
The place itself was amazing. The hot tub was awesome! Supplies were plentiful. Very clean. The drive to the cabin up into the mountain was beautiful during the day. Wouldn’t want to do it in low temps though as the turns were very sharp and a bit scary w/o guard rails in some areas. The only issue that we experienced at the cabin was with the internet. Connection was sketchy so streaming apps proved difficult. However knowing the idea is to unplug it didn’t ruin our time. Every time I reached out to the owner she was responsive and tried to be as helpful as she could.
