Creekside with a relaxing hot tub/fire pit/ grill; close to Casino/GSNP

This is such a great get away spot. Everything we needed was provided. Cabin was clean, beds were comfortable, & everything worked! Will definitely return.

Great place! Very nice, clean and comfortable! Will go back!

We had a great stay Creekside! The cabin is extremely clean and nice. The owner thought of everything I think. It’s cozy and comfortable, with all the amenities of home. It has the best stocked kitchen I have ever seen in a rental. There are also small, but thoughtful touches like power strips on both sides of the bed and usb plugs on the lamps. He also communicates very well and responds quickly. It’s a beautiful and quiet spot. You are close enough to the highway for convenience, but secluded enough for privacy and quiet.

Peaceful mountain cabin! So many nice touches to make you feel at home. Minutes away from Cherokee.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house! So peaceful watching the wildlife from the rocking chairs on the back porch. Super clean and had everything you need. Very convenient to so many different places. Would definitely stay here again! Thank you Greg for sharing your home.

Our recent stay at Climbing Bear Cabin was an extraordinary experience that exceeded all expectations. The property was a stunning retreat that offered unparalleled comfort and tranquility. Every detail, from the meticulously selected furniture to the luxurious hot tub, was designed to provide maximum relaxation and enjoyment. The cabin's strategic location was another highlight, offering convenient proximity to the town and local casino, making it an ideal destination for travelers seeking both serenity and accessibility. I am immensely grateful for choosing this remarkable accommodation, which created memories that will last a lifetime.

Communication with host was excellent and he made sure that our trip was perfect. Cabin clean with wifi. Location was great as it was convenient to the locations in which we were interested .

Very clean,nice property. Large front yard. Creek nice and clean with whimsical sounds. Nice size living room with comfortable couches. Large front porch with hot tube was fabulous. Love love love everything about it. I reached out to the host more than once and he wasted no time getting back to me and answered the phone everytime I called.

Do not hesitate booking this amazing cabin. We wanted a peaceful getaway and that is exactly what we got. It was amazing. Hands down one of the cleanest VRBO’s we have stayed at. The property is beautiful. Book it now!

Loved it it was professionally decorated very very clean. Had everything we needed beautiful we would rent it again.

Great place excellent host would definitely recommend this place

Beautiful property! Owner was very easy to communicate with. We will definitely stay here again if in the area.

Can’t wait to visit again!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.The home was exceptionally clean and tidyOnly 10-15 minutes from Cherokee and the Smoky Mountain National Park.Looking forward to relaxing there again later this yearHost was most helpful with directions Highly recommended !!

We would not have changed a thing. This was our first VRBO experience and the bar has been set very high now!

Exactly what I was looking for. Very quiet area close to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Cabin looked and smelled clean and fresh, and they even went above and beyond with some touches like a TP flower, an animal towel, etc. The owner sent complete check-in instructions beforehand, and the check-in process was smooth. He also left a binder full of useful information at the cabin including instructions for using the hot tub (easier than I expected), TVs, thermostat, etc. The babbling creek sounds are soothing and relaxing, and the creek runs very close to the cabin. Allow yourself plenty of time to just hang out at the cabin to enjoy the peace and the fabulous amenities.Cute towns of Cherokee and Bryson City are close by as are several nice waterfalls. Day trips to Gatlinburg (don't miss the Arts & Crafts loop which, in my opinion, is much better than their congested downtown area), Pigeon Forge, Sevierville, and Asheville are all doable from here. Consider getting up before the crack of dawn to drive up to Kuwohi (formerly Clingman's Dome) to see the sunrise. Pick a morning with light clouds for a prettier sky and allow time to arrive at Kuwohi at least 30 to 40 min before sunrise to see the best sky colors. Remember to dress warmly as it is much cooler up there.This was my third visit to the GSM area but my first at this cabin. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful property and great hosts!

Host was quick to respond to questions. The house was immaculate. Perfect for a relaxing getaway, yet close to things to do.

Return returning customer here! Thank you Greg for another wonderful weekend at your cabin. Parents who have kids in sports. The cabin is very close and easy to navigate to the casino for our volleyball tournament. Highly recommend!

Cute and Cozy. Very clean and communication from the host is spot on. Will certainly rent again.

Very Clean, Good communication, wonderful house.

We had an amazing experience! The home was stunning, clean, and perfectly located. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful. Highly recommended and we will definitely return!

Excellent Experience! Host was wonderful and property was very well equiped and absolutely lovely! Will stay here again!

The property is quiet, peaceful and private. The home has a well stocked kitchen, which is important to me and uncommon. The beds were comfortable. The place was clean. We enjoyed the creek, the fire pit and the hot tub. It was our first time to visit the area, which we also loved. The host was very easy with communication. We will be back.

Very relaxing time. Great place

Everything was as described. awesome place to stay will definitely stay again.

Second time staying here and I swear it gets better each time! The house is amazing and Greg communicated very well. 10/10 would recommend!

Everything was absolutely perfect. Beautiful creek and cabin! Everything you need in one spot. So relaxing and peaceful. The cabin was beautiful and very clean. The little touches with the towel animals made it even better! Will definitely go back to stay longer!!

This cabin was fabulous!! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! It was very cold outside, but the cabin was nice and cozy!!

The house was very welcoming; wonderful and peaceful. The kids loved the river right by the house and even enjoyed the rocking chairs on the back porch! Mornings were spent with warm chai and rocking. Great experience was had from grandma to the toddler!

The Host was very accommodating. We loved the beautiful home and he has it stocked with everything we needed.

Our first visit in October of 2023 was our 56th anniversarythis visit October 2025 was our 58th anniversary. We returned because of the area, cabin cleanliness, well appointed, neatness and easy access.Owner is available and responsiveAt our age and mobility the future is a ?

Wonderful location and host!

Wonderfully quiet for sleeping. Hanging out creek side in our gravity chairs and listening to the water was so peaceful. Coffee and conversation on the porch was a lovely start to the day. Comfy master bed. Comfy couch. Fantastic location for us, as we traveled to Cherokee every afternoon.

The place was a serene getaway with a beautiful babbling brook next to the house. We greatly enjoyed our stay and only wished we had booked more days there. The proximity to town and to Great Smoky Mountains NP was surprisingly close, given how secluded the house felt. We enjoyed the whole house, but the extra long porch was extra special and perfect for relaxing.

Clean, cozy cabin. Very nice host.

What a great cabin! Clean, 15 minutes to town.

This place was great. Very clean and the location was perfect. Communication with Greg the host was excellent. Could not have asked for a better experience!

The property and location are very good. It’s beautiful. A stream next to the house big open fields. you can see neighbors and houses, but they’re not intrusive until you start hearing gunfire right across the stream, which I don’t have a problem with as long as I’m with my son or my other buddies how we might even join in, but I was with my wife who needed the rest. She’s a caregiver for her father who is 100% disabled veteran doesn’t have use of one side of his body because he’s had two strokes she needed to distress. It was advertise as a quiet cozy, no loud noises after 10 PM at night call the owner which he replied that guy only does this one time a year. I’ll let you decide what you think about that response the next day gunfire again and he told me that if I were willing to pack up and leave at that point that VRBO would reimburse me the days left now who won a five day vacation is gonna do that when you know, it would be extremely difficult to find something and then his response was I cannot control what the neighbors do which I agree so I accept it and decide to leave it alone. We go off puts around antiquing whatever come back and he’s got the landscaper block in the driveway leaf blowing mowing. I’m gonna leave it here and let you people decide about the stay beautiful. Home cleanliness was great, but probably as much as I hate to say it because we didn’t like the location will find a different place next year

Was a perfectly relaxing property and comfortable home.

The cabin was wonderful and relaxing!

This place was great! Very comfortable in a very pretty location. Everything in the cabin was clean and fresh. We have stayed at many places where the linens were clean, but the pillows smelled funky. Not here - everything was truly clean. The location was great for going to GSMNP. 45-50 minutes to Newfound Gap. Ingles grocery is 15-20 minutes away. We enjoyed sitting in the rockers on the porch, listening to the creek as we had our coffee in the morning. Looking forward to coming back.

The cabin was beautiful and very clean. It was comfortable and cozy. I would highly recommend this property.

We loved our stay at Climbing Bear Cabin! Such a great location, with very relaxing vibes. Loved having the hot tub right on the porch, the grill and patio right outside the backdoor and the peaceful babbling brook by the house.Kitchen had a great supply of utensils, pots and plates/mugs etc. A thicker baking sheet would be nice, but otherwise fantastic! Comfy beds, plenty of seating.The cons-The wifi was not consistent. It would be great and then all of a sudden flake out for an hour unless we reset it.We had 5 people in our party, but only 4 towels were provided. There was a pretzel on the floor when we arrived and the kitchen floor looked like it had been sprayed with something but not wiped/mopped over.Bed linens were microfiber.By day 4 the hot tub had a bit of a fishy aroma that kept me out, but the kids still enjoyed it.Overall definitely recommend and will want to go back!

Very quiet and private and clean.

We were there for the weekend, catching a show at Harrah’s. The house was perfect, so clean and close enough to things but also far enough out to be able to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet. Enjoyed the hot tub in the afternoon/evening and also getting to walk in the creek.

We had a family of 5. The home was more spacious than what the pics showed. Kids loved the creek and firepit area. Convenient to many sightseeing places. Beginning of driveway has gravel but not steep.

Such an adorable, peaceful place. We will definitely be back. We loved the bear motif and the relaxing creek. So many small touches really added to our stay. And I always appreciate it when makeup towels are provided. At the risk of sounding like Douglas Adams, I have taken to always carrying a towel; but for more places like this creekside cottage, I might not have to be so careful to avoid the panic ;)

This is a nice 2 bedroom cabin. The porch is a treat. You can sit on the porch and listen to the stream. We loved the rockers on the porch. The house is well maintained. The kitchen is stocked with more pots, pans and utensils than any cabin we have rented before. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms had good storage for your clothes. Having two bathrooms was great. The area is very quiet, but conveniences are not far away. We hated to leave and plan on coming back next summer

This was a last minute trip. This cabin was spot on in every way. The quickest response to a late booking. Cabin last as it say. The only thing I would change if we could is, it would be pet friendly. Great host, fast to responding to questions. We were grateful for this place. Must take the time to sit on the porch and watch the fireflies, I have them where I live, but not that many at one time. Absolutely beautiful!

The place is beautiful and next to a creek, having coffee right next to it, and the sound of the creek was so relaxing. The cabin was lovely and well-maintained. Everything you need in the kitchen and more! We did a lot of hiking, s’mores at night in the fire pit, and relaxing in the jacuzzi, which was terrific after a long day out. Overall, a fantastic place to stay. The communication with Greg was outstanding; he always responded quickly. We love it!!

Was in Cherokee to see a concert and stay for the night. Really enjoyed the stay. Creek was relaxing to sit next to and the hot tub has a nice view . Private . Very clean and plenty of towels for hot tub and shower. Overall a great stay .will book again

Everything was wonderful!

Had a great time and the cabin was perfect for a relaxing day. It was not a problem for us as we left Saturday morning, but the ice maker on refrigerator quit making ice on Friday. Thank you for a wonderful week.

Nice place. Beautiful property and the creek was wonderful. We did a lot while we vacationing in the area and the proximity to everything we wanted to do was great. After full days of running, it was nice to come back to your place for the relaxing evenings we made time for. Thank you!

Our 4th visit to this property...and the view still amazes me each time. We really enjoy how close to town it is, and the size of the gigantic lot. The large field is always neatly mowed, providing a ton of room to play catch with the boys without having to worry if one of us will step in a hole or encounter a hidden, slithering friend. After a fun filled day, nothing beats the quiet, cool nights like lighting the fire pit and listening to the babbling brook running only a few feet away. I look forward to visiting this place for many years to come!

The most awesome 3 days in the awesomest cabin ever!!!! A taste of heaven!!!

We love this cabin everything we needed was here always clean and kept and the host is amazing this is our second visit and we will be back

Perfect for a cozy creekside getaway. The area was private, quiet, and the cabin was wonderfully decorated for the expected ambiance. A notebook was included with information on the surrounding area and it was all inclusive. A perfect and charming place!

If I could give 100 of 100 I would. We have been impressed with this home since I found it. From the speedy communication to the wow factor we got when we drove into drive way. Beautiful yard, well kept, wood pile for fire pit, clean gas grill on back porch, then entry to home is as instructed with ease!!! If you want a clean, comfortable, well stocked home this is it!! The front porch is amazing with hot tub and the creek beside home is clean and kept up so it is ease to see and walk in. Rooms and beautifully done, comfortable beds, and for those it matters to the shower has great water pressure. We hosted our youngest sons proposal by the creek and had his father, step mother and future in-laws over and everyone loved it as well. Honestly I would buy this house as is for my family!!! Hope you get a chance to experience this home away from home. Greg thank you and we will be back and also recommend to everyone!!!

This felt much more like a home than a short term rental. It’s nice to stay somewhere where the online pictures are completely accurate. The kitchen is completely stocked, grill worked, beds were comfortable, and the home was a 5 minute drive to downtown Cherokee… the trout fishing on the other hand was absolutely terrible. I’m sure the temporary loss of the fish hatchery had something to do with the poor fishing, but I can’t wait to stay here again.

Great location (close to casino). Best stocked kitchen we’ve ever seen in a rental. The bed was super comfortable. Best of all….the host is incredibly accommodating. We are in our 80’s and enjoyed the hot tub!!

Very clean, felt just like at home, cozy, and the kids loved it. We enjoyed the hot tub and the peaceful sound of the creek too.

House was very clean, and the location was great!

We stayed at the cabin due to its proximity to the casino. The cabin is literally minutes away from the casino. The cabin has everything you need and more. The property was very clean and well taken care of we especially enjoyed the hot tub on the back porch. Greg was very responsive and we would definitely come back.

Its very peaceful, and has lots of privacy.

The hosts messages with info was very detailed and accurate, quick response as well. Cabin was perfect location, seclusion, had all the necessities, clean, beautiful scenery with the creek right beside the cabin and fire pit. Will definitely stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful property, nearby to everything we wanted to do. House was very clean and well appointed. Fireplace and hot tub were a special touch. Owner very quick to respond to our inquiries. Would definitely recommend!

My daughter's and I had a great weekend in this cabin. Despite the Internet outage in the area, which was not any fault of the owner, this was a great find! Greg was responsive when we had any issues or questions. We hope to return to this cabin the next time we are in Cherokee! I highly recommend this cabin for you Cherokee getaway!

Clean comfy and just what we needed.

Perfect little cabin for a weekend stay!

The cabin and property are absolutely lovely. My kids (5 & 12) had so much fun playing outside, exploring the creek, having bonfires in the fire pit. We were able to relax on the back porch or in the hot tub and still be able to keep an eye on them. The cabin was really spacious for our group of 4, and had all the amenities we needed! It’s also perfectly located between BC and Cherokee for hitting all the sights. (And 5 mins to the grocery store!)It was incredibly clean, beds were very comfortable, and Greg quickly responded the one time I needed to reach out. Would love to come back and visit again sometime!

This was a great stay. I got no complaints on this property and would go again.

The cabin was perfect for our family's trip to the area. We spent time in Byson City, Cherokee, and a few stops in the Smokeys. It was close to ask 3 locations which made travel easy. We loved the huge yard where we threw a football and played some soccer, and also spending time by the creek that runs along the property. The inside was clean and also perfect for the four of us. Electric fireplace and a heater in the bathrooms for after the shower was a nice touch.

Very comfortable and reasonable home as a home base to explore the area. Convenient to Bryson City, Cherokee, and many hiking trails. In two days we were able to explore the area. Greatsstay for

The cabin was even more beautiful in person. Very very clean. They had plenty of instructions about how to work things, check out process, etc. The bed and couch are very comfortable. We loved listening to the creek right beside the cabin. Definitely a wonderful stay.

It was pretty much perfect!! The house was clean and comfortable. Was a perfect location. The owner was excellent with communicating all information and any questions that were asked, he answered them all very quickly. We loved our stay!

Great place to stay! Close to everything but in the country.

Very clean cabin.

PEACEFUL @ RESTFULL. .EVERYTHING WORKED . THE PLACE. WAS EXTREMELY CLEAN..WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ANYONE.

This place is great! With beautiful scenery and the creek is so peaceful to listen to! The cabin is great! Loved staying here!

We loved this cabin! Such a quiet, serene location by the creek. Inside is so nice, clean and updated. You will not be disappointed!
