Mama Bear and her cubs in our driveway




This summer several times we had bear sightings in our yard. One time they came up on our porch and the little cubs were playing. It was great!!!
Please dont feed the bears if you see them. Not good for them or You!!!

“Wow!! What a wonderful place you have. Just what we needed!! Our vacation included : Dollywood, Splash Country, White water rafting, shopping and of course eating. Climbed Clingmans Dome/ found out how out of shape we were, walked the creek beds, and picked up lots of rocks. We took a little of TN back to Florida. “
P.S. Didn’t see any bears.

“We were so pleased when we drove up to the Cottage Saturday Night and saw all Lighted up with Twinkle Lights. What a perfect welcome to such a beautiful mountain get away!! We loved everything about it. The design and décor, the Jacuzzi tub and Hot Tub, the location- everything!! We went everywhere, mountains, town, but the best part was coming back to the Cottage to relax and sped time doing nothing. We spent one full day here just doing nothing. Just hopping in and out of the Hot tub and Jacuzzi playing games and grilling out We definitely will be recommending your cottage to all our family and friends. It was everything we hoped for and more. We didn’t see any live bears in the wild but we sure loved the Bear Motif in the Cottage. We will look forward to when we can come back again and stay even longer!! Thank you, thank you , for sharing your little peace of heaven with us. . “
Christine, Alan and Jessica, Palm Harbor, Florida
P.S. Did I say we LOVED THE HEART SHAPED JACUZZI??? We had so much fun in it. The candles and the fireplace were a really nice touch as well.
