Where you'll be
Description
Located in Gatlinburg’s private Cobbly Nob neighborhood—itself set within a 1,000-acre resort—Resting Bears has a back deck that stretches the width of the house and looks out over woodlands toward the Smoky Mountains. Enjoy your morning coffee while kicking back on one of the rocking chairs or sprawled out on a chaise; there’s no better way to start the day. At one end of the deck, a screened enclosure houses a hot tub, where you can luxuriate among the steamy bubbles without the intrusion of insects. The other end of the deck features both a fireplace (so that you can stargaze on chilly autumn evenings) and a ceiling fan (so that you can linger over an alfresco lunch even during the heat of the summer).
You don’t have to be on the deck to revel in the beauty surrounding Resting Bears. The great room’s wall of picture windows floods the space with sunlight and lets you gaze out at the mountains even as you stretch out on one of the leather sofas to watch TV, gather at the card table to play rummy, or sit back on the glider with your tablet to surf the web (Resting Bears has free WiFi). The wood-planked walls, the sloped and beamed ceiling, and the stone-surround fireplace are ideal complements to the majestic beauty on the other side of the windows.
In addition to the card table, which seats four, the great room has a dining table that can accommodate six people. What with the elegant furnishings and the stunning mountain view, you might opt to eat many, if not most, of your meals in. You don’t have to rely on takeout, though; Resting Bears’ kitchen is equipped with appliances, cookware and tableware galore. There’s even a dishwasher because nobody wants to scrub plates while on vacation.
Resting Bears’ three bedrooms can sleep up to eight people, and there’s a full bathroom for each bedroom, which will make everyone’s morning routine stress-free. Each room also includes updated TV boxes for HD/DVR and app capabilities. The spacious primary bedroom includes a king-size bed, flat-screen TV and spacious bathroom with a jetted tub. You’ll really appreciate its massaging jets when you return from a day of hiking, skiing or exploring every inch of Dollywood.
The second bedroom features a queen-size bed, another flat-panel TV, and perhaps best of all, doors that open directly onto the deck. You can slip out at night for a romantic drink in the moonlight or head out first thing in the morning to watch the sunrise without waking the others. The third bedroom sleeps up to four people in two sets of twin-size bunk beds. The kids will love this room: There’s plenty of space for them to spread out with their games and toys, and as with the other bedrooms, there’s a flat-screen TV.
For your convenience, a brand new washer and dryer are now available at Resting Bears.
When you stay at Resting Bears between Memorial Day and Labor Day, you’ll have free access to Cobbly Nob’s two pool areas. What’s more, at the foot of the resort is the award-winning Bent Creek Golf Course, designed by legendary golfer Gary Player. Just slightly farther afield are the restaurants, shops and amusements of downtown Gatlinburg; the Great Smoky Mountains National Park; and the Gatlinburg Arts and Crafts Loop, an eight-mile trail of more than 100 galleries, studios and shops.
No matter how you spend your days, you’ll relish returning to the pleasures of Resting Bears. Experience its calm and beauty for yourself: Make your reservation today!

The cabin was amazing! Fit our family of six perfectly, and the views off the deck were impeccable! A bear walked right through the backyard while we were on the deck. An incredible experience! The only complaint (not really complaint) was I did not realize how much garbage our family of six accumulates, and without being able to put the garbage outside it piled up in the kitchen, we were not provided enough garbage bags and our garbage was piling up. Just like the description states though, toiletries and such are very limited. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend to others! Thank you for having us!

Bring extra washcloths and towels, dishcloths dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, Kleenex. As it says in the description, you only get a start of each of these. The view is extraordinary.
