Twin Bear I, Une Cabane Confortable dans les Bois, avec Chargeur EV Niveau 2 !

Welcome to Twin Bear I, a cozy one bedroom, 1-1/2 bath cabin nestled on the side of Bluff Mountain, about 5 miles, or 12 minutes, from downtown Pigeon Forge, 6 miles (15 minutes) from The Island and 8 miles from Dollywood. It's located away from the high traffic areas, while still convenient to everything you would want to visit in the area. Completely renovated in 2021, this cabin offers all of the comforts of home in a unique setting. From mid-November through mid-January, the towns are decorated for Christmas, and so is Twin Bear I! Celebrate with a cozy fire while you enjoy our lights and decorations.

We have installed a Level 2, NEMA-14 220V, 50 amp Electric Vehicle Charging Outlet for the use of our guests while you're here! Please be sure to bring your travel charging cord if you'd like to use it.

As soon as you enter Twin Bear I, you'll be amazed at how spacious, beautiful and comfortable this cabin is. This is a true log cabin, with chinking between the logs inside and out, giving it a charm and character not found in every cabin. There is a cathedral ceiling in the living room, with large windows, giving the cabin an open, airy feeling.

The main floor has a living room with a stacked stone, wood burning fireplace, which is seasonally available and comfortable seating. Windows on either side of the fireplace bring lots of natural light into the cabin! Cable TV and WiFi are included. The kitchen was updated in the spring of 2021 and now has new granite countertops. It includes a refrigerator, full sized stove and microwave/stove hood combination, and is full of the dishes and cooking necessities to keep you happy through your stay. We even have a Tennessee cookbook, so if you want to try cooking some local specialties, you have a place to start! There's a dining table for 4, perfect for a quick breakfast or a lingering, romantic dinner. The full bath is on this floor, and includes a tub with integrated shower, along with a new, granite topped vanity. This cabin also has a washer/dryer, so if you want to do a quick load of laundry, it's very convenient. We do provide a couple of laundry pods, but if you're going to do a lot of laundry, you might want to bring more.

Upstairs, you'll find the loft bedroom with a cabin style log king sized bed, made up with luxurious linens and a warm quilt. There is a bright and cheery window, and the bench at the foot of the bed holds your luggage. Off the bedroom is a half bath, completely remodeled in the spring of 2021, with a new granite topped vanity and toilet, and soft towels. The bedroom is carpeted for warmth, and is open to the living room below.

We do have a new, state of the art water filtration system in this cabin, which assures you that you are drinking and bathing in the cleanest possible water, without any of the trace odors sometimes noted in country wells.

On the covered back deck you'll find seating, along with a private hot tub. We have placed a basket of towels near the hot tub for your enjoyment. It's very secluded and quiet, with a nice wooded view. Relax on the deck swing if you're not using the hot tub. In the side yard, you'll find a state park style charcoal grill and picnic area. A fire pit with Adirondack chairs completes your beautiful surroundings. We do try to keep firewood fully stocked. This picnic area is private, intended only for use by Twin Bear I. Whaley's is a small store down on Walden's Creek Road, just past the turn off to get here; they have some groceries, bundles of firewood, and are just a charming store!

If you like to ski, check out Ober Gatlinburg in downtown Gatlinburg! Cades Cove is about 30 miles away, so if you're a nature lover or like old historical places, it's a nice way to spend a day. It is an 11 mile loop through a well preserved old settlement, with log homes, barns, and churches, along with an abundance of wildlife. If you're a fisherman, the Pigeon River is about 20 minutes away, and the National Park is about 30 minutes away. Enjoy mountain air on an easy hike along Boulevard Trail or check out Rainbow Falls Trail and be rewarded with a remarkable view of the highest single-drop waterfall in the Smokies. The National Parks app will help you find trails if you're interested.

Some of the other many attractions include: Dollywood and The Island in Pigeon Forge, Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg, Tanger Outlet Mall, Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Walking the Gatlinburg strip is nice, especially during Tunes and Tales. The Biltmore House in Asheville is a fun day trip, as is Harrah's Casino in Cherokee.

This is a great cabin for a romantic getaway; there's lots to do in the area, and it's a nice spot if you just want a little down time.
