Wonderful place

The house was clean and so comfortable. After a hectic day with a 2 year old running around Pigeon Forge, it was a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. It was minutes away from anything we wanted to do, and the Bear theme was present throughout the house, which was also fun with a young child. Would definitely stay there again

I would highly recommend Bear Paws. The house is wonderful. It has three floors. There was eight of us, but the house is so roomy you aren’t cramped up. The grandchildren loved the hot tub and all of the downstairs items to play with. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

Excellent Property

We loved our stay at Bear Pause -- the house was clean and comfortable and the views were great. We quickly learned that 2 full days in Pidgeon Forge was not enough but made the most e of the time we had. We would definitely stay at Bear Pause again. Thank you for such a great house!

Smokey Mountain Get Away

Loved the location, cute house, well stocked kitchen, charming bear decor. Cleaning service needs to be reviewed, washer/dryer needs a bigger area & the A/C isn't quite cool enough.

A Wonderful Stay at Bear Pause

The cabin was clean and cozy and beautiful. It had 4 nice bedrooms and it was comfortable and roomy for all of us- 6 adults, a 9-month old and a 19-month old. Everything worked well. Communications with the owners was prompt and seamless. We enjoyed our stay and have zero negative opinions about the stay at Bear Pause, all was fantastic.
