The house was great. We did have a crazy amount of snow and wished there had been a snow shovel available to dig out. I also wish that we knew in advance that you have to pay for all the games. Other than that I was able to communicate with well with the owners and they responded to my questions promptly. I’d stay here again

The cabin was immaculate and absolutely beautiful. However, the kitchen did not have a carafe for the drip side of the Keurig coffee maker, very limited baking dishes, no storage for leftovers, no hot pads for dishes coming out of the oven and no hand mixer per a previous communication. Some of the games were not working. We still had a wonderful visit, but were disappointed that above items were an issue.

I don’t believe the listing does this cabin & the owners justice. It was amazing & so clean. The owners have gone above and beyond providing extras for our use. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a place for a large group. We also had a visiting bear the first day as soon as we arrived. I think he was welcoming us!

Perfect

After reviewing several cabins in Gatlinburg, I chose this cabin. It had everything I was looking for, for a family of 11 with all age groups. The cabin was at the end of the road so plenty of privacy, the game room supplied plenty of evening fun for the entire family. It was well stocked with supplies and there was plenty of room in the cabin, so we were not on top of each other. The hosts responded quickly if we had any questions. Also, the cabin was not far from any place we wanted to go. I would highly recommend this cabin for your next adventure.

Amazing cabin with tons of entertainment!!

We had a great stay at Bear Moon Rising with so much space for our family of 20 guests ranging from 9 months old to 73 years old! The pool was great to have right in the basement, along with the community pool that was a short drive away. The pool table and air hockey table got used a ton too! We wished the second racing game would have worked so we could race against someone else, but we had lots of fun with the one racing game that was working!The owners stocked lots of toilet paper, dishwasher pods, laundry pods, trash bags, etc so we didn’t have to use a lot of our own stuff, if at all!Take the precautions about bears seriously, as we saw bears right by the property 3 times!! One went right to the grill that we had used the night before so clean it well including the grease trap. Lock your doors!!!It was amazing to see them up close though. We would 10/10 book this property again! Jaime replied very quickly when We had questions too. Thanks so much!
