Home away from home!

We stayed at the cabin with our great granddaughter. She said it was the most beautiful place she had ever seen. We three felt the love of the cabin. The weather was exciting and felt like magic around us. The cabin was well equipped and clean. Will stay again!!.

Wonderful!

My cousin and I, both seniors stayed in Black Bear Ridge cabin. It is the 3rd time I have been with you and the 2 nd time in this particular cabin. It was clean and very comfortable. The weather did not cooperate so we did not get to enjoy the back deck, but I loved sitting on the cover front porch listening to the rain. Townsend is a lovely town with interesting shops and within easy driving distance to the best the Smokey Mountains have to offer. We were not interested in night time entertainments and were very content. The satellite TV, and comfortable accommodations wad just what we were looking for on our trip. The Wi-Fi was an added bonus. I hope to be able to return soon. 5 stars

Very Clean cabin, quiet location

We were very happy staying at this cabin. The location was very close to Cades Cove, which is our main focus when we stay in the Smoky’s. The cabin had a fully furnished kitchen, two very nice full bath’s with shower and tub. Hot tub was very relaxing. Beautiful view at the cabin to take a morning walk. We would definitely stay at this cabin again!!!

Great cabin

The Bear Ridge cabin is in a quiet, secluded area that is not too far off the beaten path. The cabin was clean and spacious. We had no problems with anything while we were there. The hot tub was fantastic. I would highly recommend this cabin.

Great location for a fall getaway

The Bear Ridge cabin in Black Bear Hollow was a lovely place for a fall getaway. The cabin was spotlessly clean and obviously well maintained when we arrived. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, private and scenic- everything we had hoped for. The living area was spacious and comfortable and we enjoyed our quiet mornings there, sipping coffee. Having had a great stay in these cabins before and now returned, we definitely recommend the accommodations in Black Bear Hollow.

Relaxing anniversary weekend!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Bear Ridge. It was a great location, gated community but you’re not right beside of 15 other cabins. After a long day of hiking, we enjoyed coming back to the secluded hot tub, and grilling steak for dinner. It was well maintained, and had everything we required for an awesome weekend!

Great place to call home

Our family had a nice time while visiting the Smoky Mountains area. This cabin was a great place to call home during our stay. The owners were attentive to an issue with the hot tub. They had also given thought to what types of things a renter might need during their stay. We all had a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Best Vacation Ever!

We have been coming to the Smoky National Park since I was a little girl. About five years ago we discovered Townsend. It is the perfect location for our many trips into nature. I have regretted having to pay such high amounts for a hotel room that may or may not be clean. So this year I begged my mom to let me just check for a cabin. I fell in love with yours within five minutes of searching. Our cabin was so clean and comfortable! We wanted to live their forever. Your cabin was so welcoming to us while we were here. The only issue we had was pertaining to the hot tub not turning on. WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK…probably sooner than usual now that we have Black Bear Ridge!

Great location, excellent cabin

My family loved staying in our cabin. Any questions we had were answered within minutes by email to the owners. They have excellent communication. The cabins are nearby a lot of activities and restaurants which is nice for families. There is a horseback riding tour and lazy river tubing minutes away. Cades Cove is very close too.

From the moment i spoke to the owners on the phone i was impressed. Very helpful and courteous. Our family had a wonderful time staying in the cabins. they are close enough to town but far enough away to feel secluded. Very clean and beautiful. It was a perfect vacation and we didnt want ti leave. We can’t wait to bring our extended family with us next year to stay even longer! I highly recommend staying at any of the Black Bear Hollow cabins you will not be sorry!

Fall Getaway

We had the most wonderful time. Our family of 6 stayed comfortably for three nights. We have 4 children ages: 9, 7, 4 and 1. The kids had a blast and my husband and I enjoyed a relaxing visit as well. We loved the location being a bit off the beaten path. It was nice and close to Cades Cave and beautiful scenery surrounded us. Pigeon Forge is about 25 minutes away and very touristy but fun for outings. We loved the quiet seclusion but safety of a private entrance. Thanks for providing such a peaceful spot with many comforts of home. We hope to return again.

Thanks so much for the use of your cabin, Bear Ridge! It was the perfect house for my brother and I.

Peaceful Cabin

We all enjoyed our stay at the Bear Ridge very much. The cabin is a one level witch I was looking for and had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting on the front and back porches just talking and we ate out on he back porch a couple of times,it was perfect. We love going to Cades Cove and we got up every morning early to go and it didn’t take us long at all the cabin is in a great location. We saw bears, deer and turkeys in Cades Cove and when we got back we had several walking in the yard by the cabin. Thank You Mark and Debbie for a wonderful place to stay.

Very surprised !

Once we went through the gated entry we were very surprised that the road was paved all the way to the cabin. Not a big thing but I have had rougher drives. The cabin was great and a lot of it had been remodeled. The cabin was large and spacious. The appliances were new and up to date. The location was great, as I am a photographer and traveling to Cades Cove and was not at all a bad drive. This area is great for staying on the Peaceful side of the Smokies.

We spent the weekend at Black Bear Ridge Cabin. We really enjoyed it! Cabin was very nice and very clean.

We recently enjoyed another relaxing, long weekend at Black Bear Hollow. As always we found the cabin clean and well-maintained. Recent paving of the lane up the hollow made access even easier.

Our Home Away From Home

Black Bear Hollow is our most favorite place to stay in the Smokies. It’s secluded, quiet, & inspiring. We are repeat guests (9-10 times), and would not think of staying anywhere else. The cabins are located in Wears Valley in a non-commercial area, but near enough to all the attractions to make it the ideal place to stay. We have had no problems with any of the amenities such as internet, and /or phone service from our provider. Once again, A GREAT PLACE & our home away from home.

When we started renting cabins we had no rental agreement. As time passed and things happened the rental agreement got started and continues to grow. We make every effort to keep things as simple as possible. Unfortunately, some things need to be spelled out and so the rental agreement is necessary. There is no substitute for common sense. So even if something is not detailed here, if you have doubts, please give us a call. Thanks for understanding.
