All in all a cute cabin
Pro’s were cleanliness, mattress was comfortable, very quiet, somewhat remote but still close to Pigeon Forge, enjoyed sitting on back porch and watching a little deer come visit. Only cons were couch very uncomfortable and needs replacing, tiny coffee pot (only makes 4 cups).

Nice little cabin
Overall this was a good experience. The only criticism of the place was the noisy water filter system that ran a couple of the nights we were there. It is timed to run for a couple of hours during the night and is very loud. Other than that the cabin was great

Thank you for staying with us at Great Cabins in the Smokies. We are happy to hear you had a good experience. We appreciate your feedback on the water system. Your comment is very helpful to us and because of it we will adjust the water filtration system to run at a time when it is not noticeable. We hope you can return again to the Smokies and that we may assist you with another stay in the future. Thanks again!

Dances with Bears
We really enjoyed our stay. The location was private and peaceful away from the busyness Of Pigeon Forge. We liked how easy it was to enter the park from the Townsend entrance. Bed was comfortable and the kitchen had what we needed. The only thing I would change would be a comfortable chair to sit in at night. The loveseat was tight for 2 older adults to share.

Peaceful, Relaxing Cabin with hot tub
We loved this cabin, the home was extremely clean and nicely decorated. We enjoyed the screened in patio with the hot tub. It was nice to relax out there after a day of bike riding. It was our center point going to bakers creek Knoxville to Gaithersburg & Pigeon Forge. So much to see even close to the cabin. We would definitely recommend to couples and I can't forget the master bath was beautiful. Thanks for having us.

Perfect Cabin Getaway for Two
This was our honeymoon and the Dancing with the Bears cabin was absolutely perfect!! Everything was as they said it would be. We ended up staying in one day just to enjoy the cabin and it's amenities. We are getting a group together to stay in one of the bigger cabins since we loved this one so much. But we will also be back to stay at Dancing with the Bears. 10 out of 10 stars :)

Very nice
One of the best rentals I've had. Had no interaction with owner, so limited to emails and check in process. One of the cleanest rentals I've been to. Location is wonderful. Wears Valley is quiet and secluded, but only minutes from town. The pictures are accurate,but don't do the place justice. Would recommend this to any couple looking for the perfect getaway. We will definitely look at renting this place again.

The property was very clean and well maintained, the only issue and it’s small is the bed and couches need a little bit of an update other than that everything was perfect! Wears Valley is definitely the place to stay to be away from the chaos of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg! We will hopefully be able to come back again and book with dancing with the bears again!

Just what we needed!!
If you're looking for a place away from the hustle and bustle, this is it. We spent most of our time hikng/driving in the Smokies and it was a great base camp to come back to each evening and rest and make dinner. If Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are your deal, you're only 20-30 minutes away and there are a lot of neat things along the way that may make you want to stop and check out. We only had one little hiccup but was easily curable. There wasn't enough toilet paper for our stay but there is a Dollar General a few miles away that got our needs taken care of. All in all, many memories made and a great place to relax!

Awesome... Awesome... Awesome!!!
I came down to Pigeon Forge, for Jeep Invasion 2022, I wanted to be close... but not right in the middle of it. I was able to run around shop, see all vendors and all of the Jeeps. I was back and forth between Gatlinburg, Cherokee and Pigeon Forge, plus all the little twisty curvy mountain roads I could find. After running around all day, it was very nice coming back to the cabin and relaxing in the piece and quiet. The hot tub was amazing! The cabin was well stocked, I had plenty of pots and pans, dishes and such. I would definitely recommend this cabin and given the chance, I'd rent this cabin again. We've rented several cabins in the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area, over the last 10+ years through VRBO, ALWAYS satisfied, NEVER a negative experience, we KEEP coming back. We've rented 1 bedroom to 6 bedroom cabins. I'm a true believer in VRBO!!!

Great get away!
The cabin and location were great! Just a drive over the hill and you’re in the National park! Our only complaints were we didn’t have pepper (had the shaker, but it was empty 🙃), and there wasn’t an oven mitt. However, there was a Dollar General up the road where we were able to buy those things that also had fresh produce! Overall, it was a great time!
