"Absolutely enjoyed my stay, the scenery was beautiful and it was very peaceful. We already plan to come back in October. I will say tho when we came out to load our stuff in the car and take the garbage out there were 2 cubs and a big mama bear in our backyard. It was honestly very neat to see, I’ve never been that close before lol. We’ll definitely be coming back tho."

"The place was great! Super cute and clean very well priced. It is a deep drive into the mountains on low speed limit roads but not terrible at all, drain plugs were missing for the tubs so we couldn’t use the bath in the room, and the bed/ pillows were a bit stiff. Still 5 stars from me we had our own pillows from the road trip so it all worked out definitely would recommend for an affordable stay to visit gatlinburg/ pigeon forge"

Hi Dylan,<br/>Thank you for the great review. I’m glad Sleeping Bear Hideaway was super cute, clean, and a good value for your Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge visit. Sorry about the missing drain plugs and the firmer pillows — I’ve shared your feedback with the team and we’ll make sure tubs have plugs and offer softer pillow options going forward. We appreciate the recommendation and would love to host you again next time you’re in the area.<br/>Safe travels,<br/>Avada Properties

"This was a beautiful place to stay. It has a calm and relaxing atmosphere. The hot tub was amazing. The neighbors are kinda close and the driveway is very steep, kinda made us nervous as we were in a manual transmission car. But the driveway was definitely worth the stay at this beautiful cabin. We will return for another stay."
