About this property

Charming Bear Pause is close to everything and offers unlimited parking

  • This hidden gem is located walking distance to Pigeon Forge, but away from all the commotion. Nested up on a little hill, this cabin is perfect for those that want to be close to the entertainment and fun but want to take a "Bear Pause" at the end of the day. Bear Pause is a two-minute walk to the trolly stop, a one-minute drive to the strip and offers a deck that overlooks the forest. There is unlimited parking available upon request.

    Bear Pause is a two-bedroom, two bath cabin that has a KING size bed in each room and the living room has a queen-size pull-out couch. You can make your way to the porch through a large sliding glass door that offers views overlooking the forest. This home is very well equipped, secluded and is a relaxing place to stay that is very close to everything Pigeon Forge has to offer.

Amazing!

This is such a beautiful home in such a great location! We slept 5 comfortably and the beds are so comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better location. It was only a few minutes away from the strip. This home was also the cleanest home we have ever stayed at on vacation!Thank you so much!!

The property was great. The proximity to Pigeon was on target. We could be in the strip in less than 3 minutes. The cabin was clean and beautifully decorated. If we have another small group, we will definitely use this property again!!

Good place

Secluded and quiet, good place to stay. This home was clean and adequately equipped with all the necessities. The driveway can be a little tricky, especially the grade and turning around, but we were in Jeeps so there was no problem for us. The only suggestions I would make is to consider fencing in the area outside the back porch for pups to meander in. Thank you.

Sisters Trip

Home was perfect for “senior “ sisters. We had easy access to all the sites. We saw a mama bear with her cubs right outside our door several times. They just came walking up with us outside so use caution. The only negative was the driveway was a little steep so you had to be careful with sliding. Otherwise the cabin was perfect. We would stay here again and would highly recommend it for a small family.

Great location

The cabin is perfectly located close to the main strip. We had everything we needed for a great stay. It was great to be able to bring our elderly dog with us. We brought her kennel so she stayed in there when we were gone or sleeping. The fire pit outside was nice at night. The driveway is challenging if you have front wheel drive. We ended up backing up the driveway or parking at the end of the driveway.

I can see why it was cheap.

Could not get the TV to work . Shower drainage was stopped up. the water almost run over the bottom of shower. The freezer in the fridge would not keep our food frozen. The ice cream was all melted and other food. The place was grown up and we had to get a running start to get up the driveway. Could not get in because VRBO did not send us the code to get in. Finally got the owner to send it. This was an awful experience. The only thing good was the beds were confortable.

Unkept Property!

This was our 5th trip to the area and our first time having issues with a rental. This cabin was a nightmare from the start! The driveway to access it is VERY overgrown with branches sticking out and VERY steep with gravel! The outside of the cabin is also unkept and overgrown with old dry leaves around the stairs where snakes could be! Very unsafe! Once inside, we experienced issues with the TVs not working. The freezer wasn’t working. And the AC wouldn’t stay running and the cabin was up to 78 at one point! The freezer and TV not working are both apparently issues stemming from at least March as there is a review of someone else having the SAME exact issues we did! The owners of this cabin obv do the bare minimum to upkeep it! They were less than friendly about our issues and seemed bothered we were complaining and tried to make it like we were lying but I have video proof of every issue we had! They moved us to a diff cabin they own that was ALSO overgrown outside with high grass for our dogs and kids. This cabin did not have the amenities we paid for with the first one so was essentially a downgrade for our family! The TVs at that cabin didn’t work either and were stuck in Spanish. Overall, the owner of both of the cabins is a slumlord who doesn’t upkeep their properties probably due to the fact they don’t even live in the same country as them and depend on locals to do it for them. I would recommend NOT renting any of their properties unless you want issue after issue!
