About this property

Family Favorite! Arcade Games, Hot Tub, Rooftop Views, Great Gatlinburg Location

  • Welcome to Magnolia Bear Hideaway!

    From family vacations and couples' getaways to girls' trips and weekend escapes, Magnolia Bear Hideaway is the perfect place to relax, reconnect, and make lasting Smoky Mountain memories.

    Our beautifully updated three-level cabin gives everyone space to spread out while offering inviting places to gather together. Enjoy a private hot tub, rooftop deck, theater room, two arcade games, and a peaceful location in Gatlinburg's Arts and Crafts District. Best of all, you're just minutes from downtown while surrounded by the beauty of the Smokies.

    We're a Mississippi family who fell in love with the Smokies, and we're excited to share a little Magnolia State hospitality with you.

    Our location truly offers the best of both worlds. Spend the day exploring downtown Gatlinburg, riding mountain coasters, hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, or browsing the unique shops throughout the Arts and Crafts District. Then return to the cabin to unwind away from the crowds.

    You'll be:
    • 10–12 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg
    • 20–25 minutes from Pigeon Forge
    • 20–25 minutes from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Sugarlands entrance)
    • Less than 10 minutes from beautiful Greenbrier, one of our favorite hidden gems in the Smokies
    • About 10 minutes from Bent Creek Golf Course

    Mills Park is within walking distance and offers a playground, picnic areas, walking trails, disc golf, and a Gatlinburg trolley stop. The nearby Gatlinburg Community Center features an indoor swimming pool, bowling alley, and fitness center, all available to guests for a small daily fee.

    When you're ready to slow down, Magnolia Bear Hideaway has everything you need to enjoy quality time together.

    Gather for movie night in the theater room featuring an oversized sectional, cozy electric fireplace, and a 75-inch TV. Challenge each other to the arcade games, play board games around the table, or slip into the private hot tub after a day of exploring. With three spacious levels, everyone can enjoy their own space while still coming together to make unforgettable memories.

    Whether you're grilling dinner after a full day in the mountains or gathering around the table for a relaxed family meal, you'll find everything you need in the kitchen to make mealtime easy.

    One of our favorite places to unwind is on one of our deck spaces. Start your morning with a cup of coffee while the mountains wake up around you, or end the day on our rooftop observation deck beneath a sky full of stars. With very little light pollution, it's the perfect spot for stargazing, quiet conversation, or simply soaking in the peaceful mountain atmosphere.

    Whether it's your first trip to Gatlinburg or your tenth, we hope Magnolia Bear Hideaway becomes a place your family returns to year after year.

Wonderful Cabin for a Family Getaway

We had an incredible stay at this cabin! The location was perfect, close to everything we wanted to do but still peaceful and secluded. The cabin itself was spotless and exactly as advertised. It was cozy, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a great getaway. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a relaxing retreat in a fantastic location! Would definitely stay again.

Cabin was in a great location with peaceful surroundings. The rooftop deck was great to star gaze and some additional privacy. Inside, the rooms were all nice. Plenty of living space for the six of us. Close proximity to Gatlinburg made it easy.

We had a great time. I really like the extra touches with the fall decorations. The hot tub was perfect. We went to cades cove and hike laurel falls. It was super busy in town so was really nice coming back to the house to relax. Definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Quiet getaway

We had a wonderful week in Gatlinburg! The goal was a quiet getaway to meet up with family. We got exactly that at the cabin. It was also easily within 30 minutes of other attractions that we were able to take advantage of! The owners were incredibly responsive to any questions or needs we had. Wonderful stay!

Spring Break 2025

We loved our stay at Magnolia Den! The kitchen was very well stocked, which is not usually the case with vacation rentals. Our kids had a great time in the basement with the arcade and board games. The ability to sign in to our streaming accounts and having the TV automatically sign us out at checkout was great. Everything exceeded our expectations.

Fantastic vacation

The property was perfect, very clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings. Was a perfect location for us. We didn’t want something downtown but we didn’t want to go way up in the mountain due to possible curvier roads and car full of people with motion sickness. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back to the home if we come back to the area.

This cabin was absolutely adorable! There was space for the adults and our boys. I wasn't sure how I would feel about the kids sleeping downstairs by themselves but it was so cozy and not scary at all! We didn't want to leave! May book again soon for a little fall get away!

Beautiful cabin with everything you need. Easy to drive to where you want to go. Our Girl Scout troop loved the game room. It took us a minute to figure out how to lock up when we went somewhere but we figured it out. Great hot water and plenty of blankets. Loved it!

Perfect Fall Getaway

For the first time in years our family was able to go on a vacation together. This cabin was perfect for all of us! My brother, Sister-in-law and niece were able to have the downstairs. My parents were able to have the bedroom on the main level which was a HUGE bonus! My husband, daughter and myself were able to have the top floor. We spent a lot of time here and cooked and enjoyed one another’s company. My mother and daughter enjoyed the hot tub one night. The weather was perfect and despite where the location is this area we’ve stayed at now three times and it’s a super quick drive to downtown Gatlinburg. Jodi was great to communicate with throughout the entire time. This was by far one of the easiest checkouts we’ve had. It was clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen was stocked. For that many people too, there was enough TP and Towels. But if you needed more there was extra downstairs in the laundry area. Thank you for memories made! It meant so much to our family!! Blessings!
