Welcome to Sleepy Bear Lodge! No detail has been missed in this luxurious 2-story, brand-new (2019) build with 3 primary suites, 3 ½ bathrooms, and a semi-secluded location. This new log home is opening just in time for December vacationers! From its close proximity to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg attractions, easily accessible entrance with flat driveway and ample parking, and accommodations for up to 10 guests to its well-furnished kitchen, relaxing family room with a view of the mountains, and 11-person swim spa on the lower deck, the Sleepy Bear Lodge experience is sure to make it your ultimate Smoky Mountain vacation destination.
Living Area
On the entry level, Sleepy Bear Lodge has a ½ bath for your convenience, along with the warm and cozy gas fireplace, plush leather furniture, and an open and inviting floorplan. Imagine yourself cuddling up to watch your favorite movie or sporting events on the 65-inch HDTV with Blu-ray player or enjoying the peaceful and relaxing views of the mountains and woods from inside the cabin. You’ll also find the sleeper sofa here for extra guests.
Kitchen
The modern, fully equipped kitchen of Sleepy Bear Lodge features hickory cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of cookware and tableware to provide an inviting space for the chef in your group.

The entry level of the cabin boasts a private primary suite with an incredible king-size bed, dresser, 43-inch flatscreen HDTV with Blu-ray player, and closet. On the covered deck accessible here, find comfortable deck chairs where you can relax.
The lower level has 2 primary suites with awesome king-size beds, dressers, 43-inch flatscreen HDTVs with DVD players, closets, and comfortable deck chairs on the middle deck, immediately accessible from each bedroom.

Head outside to 1 of 3 covered decks with ceiling fans to keep you comfortable as you catch the evening sunsets. The large covered deck features a gas grill and outdoor furniture for those peaceful late afternoon snacks or dinners out on the deck.
Rec Spaces
Travel downstairs where the real fun begins! The lower level features several fun-filled amenities, including a 70-inch HDTV and Blu-ray player with plenty of movies for your viewing pleasure during your stay, a foosball table, air hockey, and a multicade featuring over 60 games to challenge even the most seasoned gamer!
Swim Spa
For those interested in an early swim or just wanting to bubble their stress away, head to the third deck and get in an early swim workout or enjoy a large group relax session in the 11-person swim spa. As you unwind, stargaze or watch your favorite sporting event on the large outdoor TV – all while soaking in the spa.
Other Amenities
Gorgeous tile and wood floors run throughout the all-wood cabin, and an extra sleeper sofa is located on the lower level. Sleepy Bear Lodge also features a washer/dryer (lower level) for your convenience.
How the cabin got its name…
During construction of this cabin, the workers arrived to begin their day and discovered that a black bear had decided to take a nap on the sunny lower deck of the cabin! Apparently, he was in no hurry to leave this paradise cabin, with its view of the mountains, woods, and gentle stream at the base of the hill. Eventually, he sauntered down the property and into the woods to the west of the property.
We hope you too may enjoy this cabin as a place to relax, unwind, and maybe take a nap yourself! The area is a great place to reconnect with both nature and family and friends…a home away from life’s distractions. Who knows – you may get a glimpse of the sleepy bear!

"Beautiful space. It looks way better in person. This place is isolated and right up in the mountains so if you're looking to be alone this is the perfect spot for you. The view is also amazing. I have teenage boys and they thoroughly enjoyed the game room. There were plenty of air hockey tournaments at night. This will be my go to spot from now on!"

"I’ll tell you this.... the pictures does this cabin no justice!!!! This was the best cabin i ever stayed in with dealing with AirBnB everything was clean and the cabin was so spacious. It had everything my family and I needed we didn’t want to go anywhere that’s how much we loved the place !!! I can’t wait to come back again looking to book again as i speak!!"

"This was such a wonderful cabin!!!"

"Wonderful cabin and beautifully decorated and supplied. We had so much fun playing the video games, fuse ball and air hockey after a long day of hiking in the smokies. What a pretty view to look out to in the mornings as well. All appliances are new, kitchen supplies were wonderful and very nice (even nicer than I have in my own house!) Would stay here again in a heart beat and use this company for other cabins as well."

"We stayed at the sleepy bear cabin for 3 wonderful days. The cabin looks exactly like the pictures on the website. It comes equipped with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, and a wonderful game room and family space down stairs. The view is half mountains and half wooded but very nice. The unit is spacious and beautiful. The road to the cabin is curvy and steep but just take your time and it will be fine . The road is totally paved and smooth. I loved being able to go straight to the cabin at check in. No need to go to the office and get keys. The keypad is very convenient. I will most definitely be back."

"My family loved our time at sleep bear cabin. The cabin was very spacious and we enjoyed every bedroom having their own bathroom. The large hot tub was the perfect size for our group of 5. The view from the deck was awesome - especially at sunset. This was in a great location which was secluded but still had a few neighbors and was close to town. On our last night we had a family of bears come visit which ended our vacation on the perfect note! Would love to visit the area again and stay at Sleepy Bear!"
-
"Our family really enjoyed our vacation to this cabin. It was so easy to check in and out, very clean, modern, beds were so roomy and comfortable. The view is amazing. Will come back again in the cool months when we can enjoy that awesome spa!"
