The Big Bear Lodge managed by Hearthside Cabin Rentals was exactly what I wanted for my stay in the mountains with my basketball team. The cabin was very clean and spacious. We had plenty or room to cook and eat together, and the game room was really fun as well. My team and Senior parents made some memories to last a lifetime. I would definitely recommend this property and Hearthside Cabin Rentals to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge.

Great Team Event Location
We recently stayed at Big Bear Lodge for a 3 day team building event. The cabin was clean, and welcoming. Appliances needed repair but maintenance came right away! Lots of fun and would highly recommend!

Large and lots to do!
This was the perfect property for our 38 total guests. There was plenty of sleeping space. The only suggestion I have is to add a garbage disposal in the kitchen. Oh, and chalk for the pool sticks would be great.
