    Wonderful Hosts and Property. Home is a bit dated, but it makes the experience feel like a 70s cottage experience. The dock, property and swimming are excellent. They have a Canoe and Kayaks to use. Mike and Mark were fantastic hosts.

    We stayed at Red Bear cabin for 8 days and had a great time. The cabin is lake-front on beautiful Lake Glenville with a great view of the lake. The cabin is a bit older...but is perfect for a lake get-away. Plenty of bedrooms and baths for our family of six. The owners have lived in the area for many years and were helpful with anything we needed...Mike even help us line up a boat rental for the week. The cabin is about 5 miles from Cashiers and close to groceries, restaurants, marina, small shops, hiking trails, etc. In summary, we had a great relaxing week at Red Bear cabin and look forward to returning next summer.

    We made the best memories here. The setting is majestic, the house is perfect. Views to lake unmatched. The house comfortable, and it is vintage. Sort of a time piece. Board games from the 70's, VHS tapes, cassette player and tapes. Loved every minute of it, and the house is super clean too. Mikee and Mark are the best hosts. They genuinely care. We had access to their friends' pontoon boat- the kids went tubing and had the time of their lives. Smores at the fire pit every night, grilled out day and night. Cannot recommend this place enough. Privacy, comfortable, and all around great time! Just minutes from downtown Cashiers too. Book it!!

    Lake Glenville is a beautiful lake. The location of this property is excellent..enjoyed being on the lake…however, the house is in need of an update along with the photos online. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.

    After being cancelled from 2 properties because of a major snow storm and being stranded in Gatlinburg we tried to rent this one for a last minute check-in. Property owner called us within 10 min of reserving stating that he had someone else in the property who couldn't leave due to the storm and wasn't sure if we could accommodate us at all but would let me know. In addition, I filtered my search for homes with hot tubs and this one was included in the search. After not seeing one in the photos I inquired if it had one and he said they had to remove it a while back. Given this and the fact that he wasn't sure he could move the other people to even accommodate us at all, I sent him a text 30 min later telling him to cancel our reservation. After being very responsive to the reservation he suddenly became very unresponsive to the cancellation request and ignored my texts...most likely because he already had our money and knew if he ignored it long enough he could take advantage of a situation where a family was trying to make the best of a ruined vacation. It was the most blatant unethical, immoral, dishonest and despicable actions I've experienced in a long time by a business owner. The very small refund they did provide in no way makes up for the fact that we never stayed in the house and cancelled within 30 min of the owner not being able to definitively confirm the reservation. I would say you should be ashamed of yourself but you clearly have no conscience.

    We love the mountains and the lake. Hard to find a place that delivers both AND is pet friendly. Red Bear Cabin delivers! It’s a fantastic location! It’s on the lake and within 25 minutes (or less) of numerous hiking trails and gorgeous waterfalls. Had beautiful lake views (as advertised). We used the kayaks and the chimnea pot. Also, just a 10-minute drive to Cashiers and roughly 30 to Highlands. Enjoyed the eclectic and vintage decor. Kitchen and bathrooms are updated (as advertised). The best stocked kitchen we’ve encountered. Owner Mike was very responsive and helpful. Already planning a return trip!
