Honey Bear Treehouse

The house was perfect for our trip! It was very clean and spacious for everyone in our group. Justin was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions I had. The pool amenity was an awesome way to wind down our kids after a long day of walking. We saw a bear every day which was also pretty neat. Beautiful house and would love to bring family and friends back!

We had an amazing stay! We even had a Friendly Bear Visitor that gave us memories we will remember forever. He just walked around the house said hello tried to open the car and went on his way. He was no trouble and the kids named him Henry lol. The kids said this was the best vacation ever! Beds were comfortable and all the comforts of home! We will definitely be back.

Great place, steep roads up and great views with privacy and comfort. Bring the basics like garbage bags, aluminum foil, and charcoal for the bbq. Justin was responsive and there were plenty of instructions for set up and clean up.

Beautiful location and Cabin. The cabin was clean and had a lot of rooms. Really enjoyed the hot tub. Can’t wait to go back again next year. The whole family enjoyed it! We celebrated my daughter’s birthday and we had a great time. Thanks!

Great use of the space for multiple guests

Great place to stay!

Really enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of activities at the home. The location is very close to the area we wanted to explore. Justin was quick to respond to an inquiry I had. There were a lot of details that were provided and he checked in to see if we needed anything else that would make our trip better.

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. Everything was just as described and the cabin was close to downtown. We saw many bears during the trip as well! Overall, a great stay!

I loved the house, it was adorable. The property manager was difficult to get a hold of, I’ve got many messages that were never answered and had a few calls not returned, but they were minor questions. Do be prepared, the bears will visit multiple times a day. I was terrified of going outside with my toddler. I blocked off the deck with chairs and a baby bear and momma still snuck up on us in the AM and terrified and traumatized both of us. No aggression in them, but it’s terrifying to have your 2 year old 2 ft from a baby bear and momma right behind, I don’t care who you are!

The cabin was as pictured!! It was perfect! The host was very communicative and was helpful to any questions we had. Definitely will be coming back !

Came up here for a bachelor trip and we loved the cabin! Very private, very spacious especially for 9 guys. The stay was comfortable and we had a great time, really enjoyed it!

It is a great cabin - it offers parking, an open layout for entertaining and the master suite is tucked away with seperate fireplace. We would recommend!!

We had a wonderful family vacation in this cabin. We loved the location and how easy was the drive up the cabin. The views are gorgeous. We were a family of 14 and we all slept comfortably. The cabin had everything we needed. The host was very attentive and responded quickly to any question we had. This is our second time in Gatlinburg and our favorite so far. We would love to come back in the future.

Our stay at as nothing short of wonderful. The love the owners have put into this cabin is truly evident. I don’t know if my kids have ever loved a cabin more. Everything in the cabin is so organized and clean, and it is geared towards ease, comfort, and fun for all. The owner was very responsive and willing to help whenever needed. Looking forward to future stays at this same cabin!

- Posted: 10/17/2024

The cabin was well maintained and very relaxing. I was very appreciative of the parking as some of the other cabins had very steep driveways. The host was very responsive to any questions I had.

Enjoy our stay . Has all the necessities.

Check in was seamless. Location was just perfect. Clean house. Responsive owners. Now, let’s talk about how this place functioned for our family of 4 with 2 younger kids. The games were a big hit. This cabin is a 2 bedroom with a loft which serves as a 3rd bedroom and game room but has no door for privacy. At first, when we got there, our kids were fighting over who would sleep in the loft. However, when nighttime came and they realized there were lots of windows in the loft and no curtains or shades, they both got a little scared to be in the loft alone, so they both slept in the second bedroom together in the king bed. Worked out perfectly. I didn’t really want them in the loft anyway. They probably would have played games all night! Lol. The beds were quite squeaky/loud, but comfortable with comfy pillows. Now, let’s talk about the Bears! The morning after we arrived, we discovered wet dirt bear smudges on all four doors and handles of our car. Thankfully, we left no food in the car. No damage to the car, which was nice. The third morning as we were loading up the car to go on a hiking adventure, my wife and daughter were standing at the car and as I walked out the front door, I was 5 feet away from Mama bear and a cub who were just standing there looking at us. A little startling, but cool. I made some noise as mama bear tried to open the car door with my wife and daughter inside, then she went away and her cub followed. All things considered, 5 star experience.

My family & I stayed at the honey tree bear air bnb & I have to say everything is as pictured. Location, fairly easy to find but very curvy roads, sharp turns & steep hills okay for a small car during summertime. It’s a plus with it being so close to downtown Gatlinburg & pigeon forge. As many times as I’ve stayed around Gatlinburg/pigeon forge areas I haven’t seen this many black bears as I have this time go around. Mind you, me and my family we cooked the whole time we stayed so that must’ve been what attracted a lot of mama bear and baby bear. As we were loading during checkout day a mama bear did get into my car while we were taking our time loading things one at a time. Just be careful. I made a small mistake by leaving it unlocked. Couldn’t find the pool area so we just did without, which is fine. Beds & sleeping areas were more than enough provided for my family and I do appreciate that very much. And my host was awesome at communicating & making sure our stay was great!

We travelled from Houston by road with family and cannot be more happier with this centrally connected and excellent property with everything you need. Though some of the views are covered due to springtime, if you need to relax with family, have fun and love to cook, look no further. I stayed during my earlier visit in Pigeon Forge but I liked this location as its 5 mins from Ober mountain for all fun activities as well drive to Ziplines and other activities or drive to Clingman dome. We had bears visit on all days of our stay as this property is on bear pass route. I cannot thank enough the owner Justin for his excellent communication and response for any questions I had. I will def. come back here when I plan Smoky trip again in future.

I went down for my birthday and the cabin stood out instantly. We loved the place and enjoyed the amenities provided for us. It has lots of beds for a group. What also made the trip smoother is if we had any questions for anything justin responded right away and made sure our trip was going great. We will definitely be booking another one of his properties again in the future! We had a wonderful weekend.
