Three Little Bears

Beautiful cabin and perfect for our family trip. Our toddler loved the jenga blocks, dominos etc and we had a great time! Little further from Gatlinburg & attractions than we anticipated, but great location in the mountains for a peaceful getaway!

Beautiful cabin, my teenage boys loved the pool table and arcade games. Two king size beds, and plenty of extra space. Beautiful porch with a neat screen porch. We saw two bears behind the cabin!! It was perfect. Our new favorite place. All the pot and pans needed!

We had a great experience at the cabin. Everything was clean and comfortable. As we were driving up we saw a black bear that greeted us to our temporary home. One night we stayed in and enjoyed the hot tub and watched a Netflix movie. Would highly recommended. Hope we can make it back soon.

We had a very nice stay at the cabin. Saw a bear every day we were there! Enjoyed the hot tub and pools. Things to note - pools are quite far from the cabin, need to drive to them. The view is very nice but really mostly of the trees directly in front of the home, definitely not a clear shot of the mountains (the trees cover 75% of the mountains but you can get a small look, which was lovely). Host was communicative and addressed all our (very small) issues.

A beautiful cabin. It was near to town, clean, and it is well equipped, just as described. Justin answered fast to any question we had. I would love to be back!

Loved the place! Very comfortable chairs and a great view! Very helpful host as well. The one king bed on the main level is on a very tall bed frame (different from the photos) so if you’re a little shorter or have some mobility issues it might be tough to get into. We’re 5’7” and 6’, and found it awkward. We have a tall bed in our home, but this was much higher than that. Otherwise we loved it and would stay again (even with the tall bed).

This was a perfect place for our family vacation. Justin was great very responsive! We saw so many bears and other wildlife! We enjoyed the quiet mornings, game room, and hot tub!

Our family had such a wonderful time at the cabin. It was exactly as described and perfect for my little family. Both downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge were close by and there was plenty to do! The cabin itself was clean and had plenty of seating, inside and out. The hot tub was turned on and ready to use when we got there (which was a bonus +) the young adults enjoyed the pool table and arcade games and the community pool. We will definitely be booking another week long stay in the near future and returning for future July 4th vacations!
Thanks Justin for an unforgettable family vacation.

We visited for a birthday trip. The cabin was exactly what we needed. We definitely recommend it.

- Posted: 5/5/2025

Beautiful place! Exactly what you expect from the pictures and Justin was always willing to help if necessary. Saw lots of bears wandering around and it was amazing. Only 30 min from all the major tourist attractions and great hikes nearby.

- Posted: 5/18/2025

We thoroughly enjoyed the cabin, it's impressive view of the mountains, roomy balcony, layout of the cabin and the comfortable bed and roomy shower. The two kinds of coffee makers were perfect for us and we spent a LOT of time in the screened-in porch drinking coffee, listening to birds and relaxing, especially when rainy. We really hope to rent this cabin again in the future.

- Posted: 5/8/2025

Thank you for your kind words, Shelley! It sounds like you had a wonderful time enjoying the cabin and its beautiful views. We're glad the amenities, like the coffee makers and screened-in porch, added to your relaxation. We’d love to welcome you back for another stay in the future!

Everything was just what we were looking for. The home is inviting and comfortable. The view and surroundings are amazing. Justin was friendly and responsive and provided a very thorough guidebook.

Great spot! Highly recommend!

Good place!

The cabin was perfect. Very clean, nicely decorated with great kitchen appliances & amenities galore. The deck with rockers & hot tub was beautiful day & night. The host was fabulous and always polite & responsive.

- Posted: 3/22/2025

We really enjoyed our stay here. Everything was clean, well furnished, and worked (TVs, WiFi, warm water, appliances, heat, etc.). The hot tub was great to have, and we used it several times. The views were beautiful and plentiful. Best of all, Justin was a great host! He was very responsive to all our questions, and he provided good instructions and helpful tips on exploring the area.

- Posted: 3/15/2025

Absolutely beautiful!

the place was beautiful and the views were even more breathtaking. definitely will come back for another visit.

- Posted: 2/25/2025

We had a great stay! Justin was very quick to responding to our couple questions before we stayed and made recommendations for us to check out! If you are looking to be close to the action but still enjoy the views I highly recommend checking out this spot!

- Posted: 2/17/2025

This cabin was perfect for our trip to the smoky mountains! The view alone was beautiful and being able to relax in the hot tub while looking at the view was perfect. It was such a cozy stay and the host even provided some board games on top of having the pool table and an arcade machine, we didn’t realize this was going to be there so we all spent hours playing Galaga and Pac-Man. The host was very informative and great at responding and giving local recommendations. Next time I come I would love to stay at this cabin again. Had a great trip, I really appreciated the little details about this cabin that made the trip feel so homey.

- Posted: 1/26/2025

Great stay, very clean, easy to get too, great amenities and a great responsive and kind host. Would definitely recommend!

- Posted: 1/5/2025

a very beautiful view, fast communication, and everything close, I loved it

- Posted: 1/1/2025

The cabin was plenty of space for our family of 5. The community and views from the cabin are stunning! We really enjoyed our stay and loved our evenings in the hot tub.

- Posted: 12/27/2024

he was great from the moment we booked felt like our home away from home..auowr clean and he was veey helpful ...very private cozy cabin

- Posted: 12/15/2024

Justin is a great host! The cabin was beautiful & more than we ever expected. I was able to reach out to Justin with a few minor issues & he was quickly responsive & offered resolutions. I would stay at any of Justin’s properties in the future with confidence of safety and comfort!

Great stay, but the linens could be improved - they had an unpleasant smell and didn't appear to be freshly washed."

My husband, and I decided to take our honeymoon as newlyweds in Gatlinburg. We both had never been before. I can tell you hands down that we will most definitely be back! We had such a blast! The cabin truly felt like our home away from home. It was cozy, peaceful, and seeing the mountain view every day was such a treat! Most importantly however, you will not find better hosts than Justin and Kari! They provided a guidebook of all sorts of things to do such as attractions, and restaurants. Whenever we needed anything such as recommendations, or general questions, they always responded quickly! We could have not asked for a better trip, and are sad that our honeymoon has come to an end! Thank you for an amazing stay Justin and Kari, and for allowing us to create memories together as newlyweds that we surely won’t forget!

I was looking for a private getaway with beautiful surroundings and a gorgeous home, and that’s exactly what what I got with Justin’s listing. It had everything we needed, hot tub worked great, we woke up with that beautiful view every morning, king sized beds were super comfy, and Justin was a wonderful host. We will come back in the future

- Posted: 11/11/2024

The view is amazing!! Justin was also very responsive when I messaged him. The only thing that could have been any better for me was the bed. If you are used to a firm mattress then it's great, it just wasn't the most comfortable for me.

- Posted: 11/8/2024

We loved our stay at this little cabin in the mountains! The views were stunning, and the cabin was beautiful! Updated inside and very clean when we arrived. It was the perfect size for our small weekend getaway with 4 people, and the pool table and hot tub added fun activities for us to do without even leaving the cabin! We would stay here again in a heartbeat! Justin was very responsive and helpful with his messages and was a great host!

- Posted: 10/27/2024

Three Little Bears cabin was exactly as pictured and described. Justin was very communicative. We had no problem with finding the cabin and no problem with the keyless entry. The cabin was perfect and we felt very much at home. Hot tub and awesome view on the deck was delightful. A mama bear and her 2 cubs entertained us. The road to the cabin is a mountain road and curvy but easy to navigate. The only reason this host and this property gets 5 stars is because I can’t give it a 10 star rating. We will be back!

So I stood at the cabin this weekend and there’s not much that I can say other than beautiful. That’s exactly what it was. The cabin was charming at first glance. When we went inside, it was impressive how clean it was and a very cute decor. I took my girlfriend there for her birthday. And she could not be happier. The views were stunning. And the house was cozy and warm. The fireplace was a fantastic touch in the evening especially because it rained all weekend. We played pool and watched the stars at night. We sat on the deck and had breakfast in the morning. You could not ask for a more picture ask weekend. Also, one of the features that I really liked was that the owner was very accessible. Every time we reached out to him. He instantly got back to us. Which was pretty impressive.I was so glad that she enjoyed the weekend, as we were away she asked me when can we come back. I would definitely recommend this cabin to anyone looking to get a piece of the mountain life for the weekend

The cabin was beautiful with beautiful scenery. It was very clean and everything at our disposal. The host was very responsive and very helpful. One of the best times we have had in Gatlinburg with staying at such a great place to stay.

- Posted: 9/28/2024

Justin was very friendly and responsive with any question we had. The cabin was clean and peaceful. Was in the perfection location for either relaxing or getting busy in town.

- Posted: 9/22/2024

Beautiful home, felt right at home. Will definitely come back to this place in the future.

- Posted: 9/2/2024

Was a wonderful place to stay and great for families. The whole cabin was super clean, and well stocked! We made dinner here multiple nights and we enjoyed having everything we needed. The screened in porch was a nice touch. We will definitely be back!

- Posted: 8/25/2024

We had an amazing stay. The hosts were incredibly responsive and friendly and easy to work with. The cabin was great and well stocked with everything we might need. The kids enjoyed the neighborhood pools and my husband and I loved the views. One thing worth noting – there are many bears in the neighborhood, so it is of the upmost importance that you secure your trash well.

- Posted: 8/16/2024

We really enjoyed the cabin and the views from the hot tub were amazing!

- Posted: 8/10/2024

Quaint and beautiful place. It was nestled just high enough to see the mountains and close enough to flat land for an escape into downtown. With a pool table and some video games, our 9-year-old was entertained. The back deck seating area had a gorgeous view.
The only suggestions I would make are cleaning the deck area, kitchen, and making sure all pictures were hung straight. That was all minor stuff compared to the beauty we experienced. Thanks Justin!

- Posted: 8/7/2024

Great experience, host was very kind and helpful.

- Posted: 8/4/2024

Justins place was awesome for our family of four, our kiddos loved the games and we loved the mountain views! We even saw a mama bear with three cubs on our last day, quite the treat!

Would definitely return

From the beginning to the end Justin was very responsive, helpful and friendly with whatever questions and needs I had. The cabin was beautiful as was the view. Very quiet, peaceful. I would definitely recommend Justin and his property to anyone who is thinking of staying in the Gatlinburg area. One of the nicest people I have dealt with.

We had an amazing time at the cabin. It had a beautiful view of the Smokey Mountains. Seeing a momma bear and her cub was outside the window made this a trip that we won’t forget anytime soon

This cabin has phenomenal views!!! We loved waking up and having breakfast looking at the view first thing..sitting on the back porch just relaxing.. the hot tub was a must after a long day of adventures! The driveway way flat which was a hard find to have when you're staying in a mountain top cabin! The cabin is VERY easy to find, we've stayed in many in the mtns over the years and this was one of the easiest to get too. There were less towels than expected and toiletries so def bring your own, we road trip alot so we know to always bring our own but other families may not..thats about the only thing you'll need to bring..the cabin has everything a family needs! Would love to visit again!! Book your stay here..you won't regret it! we
We are already missing the views!

Thank you for your kind words about our cabin and for choosing to stay with me for your mountain getaway. I'm glad you enjoyed the hot tub and found the cabin easy to access. Your feedback about the towels and toiletries is noted, and I appreciate your input. It was a pleasure hosting you, Christina, and I hope to welcome you back for another relaxing stay soon.

We absolutely loved our time in this beautiful, cozy cabin! We loved relaxing in the hot tub after our busy days and enjoying the breathtaking view of the mountains! We loved that it was tucked up in the mountains but close to town. The cabin was comfortable with everything you might need in the kitchen and we really enjoyed the family games & pool table. Justin was a wonderful host! Very helpful, friendly, kind & responsive and his guide book was 10/10!!! So helpful and thorough. Only thing I would suggest is to bring your own soap/shampoo/conditioner. Overall, it was the perfect getaway for our family!

- Posted: 6/18/2024

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Paige! I'm thrilled to hear that you and your family had such a fantastic time at the cabin and that you enjoyed the hot tub, the breathtaking mountain views, and the proximity to town. It's great to know that the cabin amenities, family games, and pool table added to your experience.
I appreciate your kind words about my hosting. It was a pleasure to assist you, and I'm glad my guidebook was helpful. Thank you for the suggestion regarding soap, shampoo, and conditioner – I'll certainly take that into consideration.

From the booking process to checkout Justin was very friendly and very responsive. The cabin is very clean and so beautiful. The views are so breathtaking . The cabin is in a great location . We were able to see lots of wildlife . We had a short drive to many fun things to do.
