A 3,000-square-foot, three-story log home, Apple Bear Lodge can sleep
up to 18 people. But sleep may be the last thing on your mind once you
take note of all the lodge's amenities, which include a hot tub, a pool
table, foosball and free Wi-Fi.
Set atop a steep driveway, Apple Bear Lodge looks out over woodlands
toward the Great Smoky Mountains. Its two covered rear decks, which
span the width of the home, offer plenty of space for the whole group

"The cabin was excellent for large family crowds. We had 9 adults and 4 kids. The description fit it perfectly. Our only wish is that they have more than 2 trash cans for that large of a crowd. We loved hiking and the comforts of a home cabin afterwards. Five stars all around. "

Traveler Reviews
Apple Bear = a must
The property was well maintained and very clean! Also provided lots of entertainment inside of the cabin.
GREAT

Cozy home
The property is overall very cozy and has great space!
Comfortable, High Quality, Family-Friendly Cabin
The Good: Cabin was sturdy and clean. Beds and couches were very comfortable. Other than a few minor inconveniences (more on that in a second) everything was in working order. Internet and cable service was fantastic without any slowdowns or service interruptions. Cable included HBO, which was unexpected. Location was extremely convenient to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Smoky Mountain National Park. The arcade machine was a really great touch, especially for families with kids.
The Inconvenient: The driveway is extraordinarily steep. Our mini-van made it to the top okay, but I can easily see some less powerful vehicles having a lot of trouble. Some TVs were zoomed in or out without any way to fix because the original remote was missing. One couch has a busted spring, so we didn't use it. Bring some silverware (spoons especially) or buy some plasticware for the kitchen. Some showers/baths were dripping.
Overall, we had a really great stay and would absolutely come here again. Those "inconveniences" were just that. With the exception of the driveway, there was nothing really serious to complain about, which is why we give it five stars. Kudos to the rental agency for a really great experience. Thank you!
