"We love your cabin Tom it was by far the best cabin for what we paid a night that we have ever stayed in.We loved that the kitchen is fully equipped as we do most of cooking instead of eating out saves our family so much money(we have 4 teenagers)..We loved all the movies that you have in the cabin for your guest to enjoy...the kids played pool and soaked in the hot tub all night LOL good thing the cabin has different levels and they was put on the very lower level!!!We went to Dixie Stampede for the dinner and show if was wonderful...thats another we loved about Bears Den the location so close to everthing...no spending our vacation time driving everywhere.It was the perfect vacation for my family..We will be back" - Mark, Juliet,Tn, 02/18/10(HomeAwayConnect Guestbook Entry)

"We stayed at Bears Den in Pigeon Forge Tn and had an absolutely wonderful vacation.Of course Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg and all they offer was great...but i would have to say the thing that put our vacation over the top was Bears Den Cabin..The cabin has the wonderful country charm of beautiful Tenn and just about everything you needed except a stocked fridge but Food City is only about 2 miles from the cabin so we had no problem there....Bears Den has a wonderful hot tub on the lower deck and a large jacuzzi in the loft bedroom which we used every day!!!It has Sat HDTV in all bedrooms plus a 42 in HDTV in the living room.The Viars have thought of pretty much of everthing when it comes to stocking with the necessities to stay very comfortably and happily..The cabin has a handicap ramp into it that i really appericated ...i had my 81 year old grandmother with me..Its so nice to find a cabin that has easy access for the elderly and still have enough room for the children to hang out and play pool and enjoy the hot tub ETC without driving granny insane...LOL...We loves this place and have already made our reservations for next year ....
