Fantastic property and owners. Everything was exactly as described. Cabin has everything you could need for a great stay. Close to many places but also tucked away for privacy and peace. More than enough room for 4 people and could easily fit 5-6. Was lucky enough to see bears on 3 different occasions right off the back deck. Would absolutely stay again and recommend to anyone!

Nicely appointed accommodations, very clean
Great cabin! Very clean. Nice touch to have a TV and fireplace in both bedrooms, living room and family room. Liked having ceiling fans in living room and bedrooms, along with standing fans in each room to adjust temperature. Kitchen was nicely set up with all you need, crock pot, smoothie maker, large toaster, coffee & k-cup maker, even cups, plates & bowls for kids. Night lights in bathrooms and other rooms which we’ve never seen. They are good to have when in an unfamiliar home. Bathrooms had nice soap and bath spray. Host was very responsive to all our text. We grilled one evening and enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub (very clean). Pool table and pac-man game was a nice bonus. Would definitely stay here again when returning to the area.

Perfect Getaway
My husband and I stayed at this cabin for a short getaway. When it comes to places to stay, I can get a bit obsessive in finding the perfect place. Well this cabin was it! Bear In Mind is exceptionally clean. It is conveniently located yet feels secluded. The decor is beautiful and you can tell that there was a lot of thought that went into making it comfortable for guests. Richele was quick to respond to any messages and just a pleasure to work with.

Peaceful, quiet, serene, and good location!
We loved that this cabin had privacy! It was so quiet and peaceful here. It also still has a beautiful sneak peek view of the mountains too. We loved sitting on the deck early in the morning listening to the birds and the rustling of leaves as we tried to spot wildlife while enjoying our coffee. I could have read my book on the deck with that view in the background for hours. The cabin itself is charming and was the perfect size for our family of four.

Wonderful property and host
"Bear in Mind" was an ideal place for our family (including two 5yo's and a 10yo) to retreat for some spring break R&R. The home is a beautiful destination in and of itself, and is also a short drive to Gatlinburg, the national park, and other regional destinations. We chose to take it easy, enjoying a couple of half-day adventures while spending the rest of our time enjoying the mountain scenery from the cabin, cooking/grilling meals for the family and having some fun with the arcade console, pool table and spa. We sincerely appreciated the hosts' welcome and excellent communication. We definitely recommend this property to others. Thank you!

Perfect in Every Way
Richele is the most considerate host and her property is perfect in every way. The day prior to check-in, Richele reached out to let me know the cabin was ready for our arrival and we could check-in early! It was such a nice treat to settle in earlier and begin vacationing sooner! The cabin is immaculate and exactly as listed. Having two master suites on separate floors, each with their own walk-out patio, was perfect for me, my husband, daughter and son-in-law. Private space for everyone! Downtown Gatlinburg, Arts & Crafts Communities and the Smoky Mountains National Park is just a short drive away with options for everyone! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
