The rooms were clean, and the house was as described. The host was very quick to respond to our messages and willing to send people out to troubleshoot some issues we had, and said they would look into the issues after our departure. While we opted to not have anyone come out and the issues were mostly minimal we did experience a few things; all but one bedroom tv did not stay connected to the internet, making the TV's not functional. The ceiling fan in bedroom 4 wobbled that it ended up disturbing the person sleeping in that room. Bedroom 2 had some old/missing rubber seal on the shower door which made a mess of water on the floor. Again these issues weren't a huge deal and we made due. The views were amazing and couldn't be beat. Enjoyed our morning coffee and evening drinks out on the decks. There are alarms on all the doors on the lower level, while I appreciate the safety, the alarms got really annoying after a short while. It would be nice to have the option to turn them off especially with groups of older kids and adults. Out on the porches we noticed a ton of carpenter bees flying around, not sure if this is the season for them or if they are always out. They didn't bother us and we ended up just watching them fly around. You may want to keep an eye on little ones because the female bees can sting if they are bothered. Overall we had a great stay and would love to come back again!

Extremely clean, great amenities, including pool and hot tub with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for our two families. Very quiet during the week with a livelier crowd over the weekend. Close to Pigeon Forge while at the same time feeling like we were a step away from the hustle and bustle. Excellent communication with host, we enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

We enjoyed our 2nd stay at Black Bear Lodge and loved it! It is the perfect place for our family to reconnect. We love that the bedrooms are on one floor, the common area is on another floor, and the pool/fun area is on a separate floor. This allows "together" time and yet allows everyone to have "private" time. The owner, Karen, was just an email away for anything that we needed. Thank you for allowing us to make another year of memories b sharing your wonderful house and the beautiful views.

This property was amazing! It was beautiful inside with spacious well-decorated rooms, each having an ensuite bathroom. Loved that! My grandsons loved the huge bunk beds. The long farmhouse table was great for meals. The game table was nice so the kids could leave their games out. We cooked 2 meals a day in the kitchen. And the inside pool was a hit, as was the jacuzzi. And the view was gorgeous. We loved this place and highly recommend it.

The location of the property was nice, but we are from way out of town and didnt realize how hilly it was going to be. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean. One member of our party got a piece of glass in her foot near the pool (which happened before we checked in). The kitchen was fully stocked and it was nice that the bedrooms all had bathrooms. The two "pain points" that we had was that we had to take our own trash to the dump and without a truck it would have almost been impossible. The other thing was that the property is advertised as pet friendly but they dont tell you that its an additional 200 until after the contract is signed. All in all it wasnt a bad property for the price.

Spacious property with amazing Mountain View’s!
This is a large home with 4 bedrooms, each with an attached bathroom. The game room kept the teens entertained as well as the adults! Well stocked kitchen with plenty of dishes and cookware. Beautifully decorated. Some areas need a little maintenance (glass door on shower loose, flooring installed poorly, dishwasher top rack broke) but this did not affect the quality of our stay. The front deck is amazing with lovely rocking chairs.

Beautiful property!
We throughly enjoyed our stay - it felt like a splurge! Absolutely beautiful space with nice views and convenient location. Highly recommend. We stayed with extended family (11 total) and the space was perfect. The kids loved the pool. The space was extremely clean other than a moldy shower curtain.
Note that the room with bunk beds does not have 2 queens beds in addition to the bunk beds. There is only the bunk bed which is a queen over queen. The way VRBO showed the room was misleading and we were expecting two extra beds.
Improvements: hot tub was cold at check in. Coffee creamer cups needed to be replaced. Would appreciate k cups Included for the price of this place.
Would definitely stay again!

Great family getaway
We had an excellent family getaway to Pigeon Forge including our first trip to Dollywood. Splashing Bear Lodge was a great fit for us because of its convenient location, perfect size, and of course, the pool. The hosts were easy to communicate with and very responsive when we had difficulty with the hot tub.
