A pleasant peaceful place.
Love the layout of the outdoor kitchen, dining area and hot tub. Unfortunately the decks and landscaping around it needs some TLC. The house layout is poorly designed. The ground floor is one big bedroom, full bath with walk in closet and two exterior doors. The upstairs is the kitchen, living room, dining area and full bathroom. Upper deck has an outdoor dining set. That being said if you want to cook outside. You have to go up & downstairs several times to prepare a meal at the outdoor kitchen. Other than that it was very clean and the views from the decks were beautiful. The location is a short drive to town and there is a lot of activities nearby for both couples and families.

Fantastic location
Secluded property at a dead end road and very private. Cozy and clean. Hot tub was great with a nice Mountain View. Plenty of outdoor area for our two dogs. Nice firepit. I suggest you bring some towels from home as there were few.

Perfect getaway
Property and cabin were clean and organized. Very secluded, good view from both levels, we didn’t have a chance to use the outside kitchen but it was a great setup. It had everything we needed and more. Great central location in case you wanted to travel to Cherokee(30min) or Gatlinburg(1.5hr). We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and stay and we will most likely use this cabin again in the future.

Great Secluded Cabin for Private Getaway
Bear Bottoms Chalet was a great private getaway. The views from the outdoor kitchen while cooking or relaxing in the hot tub were amazing. The cabin had the perfect layout and was perfect for our long weekend getaway. At night when it got a little cold, we were able to put the fireplace on and relax and play a board game or be warm after coming in from the hot tub. Located in a good spot, not too far from town or shops. Would recommend and will return.

Nice cabin for a couples getaway
Easy booking. Easy check in. The cabin is at the TOP of the mountain. It is as secluded and private as you can get. If you don’t want to make multiple trips down the mountain, bring extra food and drinks. The views from the decks and hot tub are awesome. It’s about 15 minutes down to Bryson City and 30 minutes to Harrah’s Cherokee Casino. Thanks for a great stay.
