bearded bear lodge

My family of 6, thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Elks Lodge!
The check-in process was seamless, since the door code was provided prior to our arrival.
The home was spacious enough for us and was equipped with things needed to make our stay comfortable. The upstairs loft area was great!
The cabin was about a 10 mile distance from downtown Gatlinburg and was also conveniently located to Pigeon Forge (Dollywood).
The day before we were leaving, we did spot a bear from our kitchen window. He sniffed around the truck for a moment, roamed around for a minute or so, and moved on back into the woods.
We knew to not leave any food in the car and the outside trash cans were bear proof.
I was thrilled to see the bear and get a video of it!. It was one of the highlights of our stay!
Thank you to Elks Spring Resort Cabin Rentals for your part in helping my family to have such a memorable experience!!

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The views from the deck were beautiful and we spent a lot of time just sitting outside and taking in the mountains. The cabin was clean when we arrived and had everything we needed. We did see one bear in the area during our stay, which was exciting to experience (from a safe distance!).

I am a wheelchair user, so accessibility is important to me. The zero-entry shower and step-free layout inside the cabin worked really well. There is one small step up to the front door, but my chair was able to roll over it without an issue. It made the stay easy and comfortable for me.

The cabin is tucked away in a very peaceful, quiet area, but still just a short drive to the downtown Gatlinburg area, which we really appreciated.

I reached out to the resort staff a couple of times with questions and requests, and they responded quickly and were genuinely helpful each time. They made everything very easy.

We would definitely stay here again.

This cabin was amazing!The mountain view from the cabin was amazing especially the evening sunset view pictures just cannot do justice! Will definitely come back to this cabin.

Our Bearded Bear cabin was excellent. The cabin had spectacular views, was very clean and the two king bedrooms were perfect for our two couple group. The cabin was exceptionally clean and the bathrooms were spacious and very nice. The front porch and back deck were spacious and had plenty of room. The rocking chairs and swing were great. We will definitely plan on going back sometime.

Was an amazing stay! We enjoyed the views. Eating breakfast outside, the hot tub and the entire home. We even saw some bears and wolves in the backyard! Would stay again 10/10

The cabin was beautiful! The view of the mountains in the mornings was our favorite part. Well maintained cabin, every time I had a question I would just contact them and within minutes I had a response. My family and I really enjoyed our stay (:
