Summer 2025

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we had a fantastic time at the cabin. The location was up on the mountain, fully paved roads to it. There was a partial view of the mountains, a couple of cabins in the vicinity but secluded enough for privacy. We appreciated the pool table and the hot tub with other regular amenities. We wished they had stocked at least salt and pepper like all other cabins did in which we had stayed before. The cleaners missed cleaning the pull-out couch, the bedsheet on it was absolutely filthy with blood stains, we were disappointed we couldn't use the sofa bed. The cabin is about 10 minutes from downtown Gaitlinsburg and 20 minutes from the visitor entrance to the Smoky mountains.

Family getaway to the Smoky Mountains

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Elk Springs Resorts were recommended by a friend and she was so right! The cabin was ready prior to check in time of 3 pm. It was clean and everything ready for us. The pool table and the hot tub were big hits with my grandchildren. I received a call the next day to make sure everything was ok. We had a toilet that you had to jiggle the handle to stop the water from running. I told them and they offered to immediately send someone out. They stayed in contact during the whole stay. We will definitely rent from Elk Springs again!

HORRIBLE! DO NOT BOOK ELK SPRINGS! WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If you’re idea of a beautiful Smoky Mountain vacation includes a view of asphalt then your in luck, stay at Life’s a Bear....with your stay you’ll also get: dirty, small, cheap couches to cozy up in, a toilet that won’t flush and threatens to overflow every time you use it, beds that make your whole body hurt after sleeping on them (that’s if you can get out of the worn out dip in them to a flat surface) and just in case you may have a complaint, no worries , you will be wrong about everything, they won’t comp ANY of your money for anything, and maintenance will never find anything wrong with the place. We wasted our money! Customer service was terrible and very un- accommodating. Rude rude rude. We left (lost our money) and stayed the rest of our trip at Dollywood Dreammore, where they waited on us hand and foot, had great food inside the hotel with beautiful decor and soft comfortable beds...oh! And it was a lot less money per night!! Don’t waste your time or money at an Elk Springs Resort! You will leave being anything but relaxed!

We contacted Elk Springs Resort and the problem was corrected very quickly! We were slightly disappointed that the view of the mountains wasn’t as good as we anticipated. We would stay here again. The cabin was very well maintained and clean.

Fantastic Cozy Cabin

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful few days of rest and relaxation at Life's A Bear Cabin. This cabin is perfect for two couples, as both bedrooms are King suites. There's a cozy sitting area, with TV and electric fireplace, along with a pool table upstairs and an outdoor Hot Tub on the deck. Since a snow storm hit while we were there, we used the kitchen a good bit for meals, and the City of Gatlinburg did an awesome job of clearing the roads. The location is near the Arts and Crafts Community off of Glades Rd. It is very quiet and peaceful, and during the drive up the mountain, there is a spectacular view of Mt. LeConte. I highly recommend this property!

Living room furniture was a little worn down and not comfortable. Hot tub was nice but difficult to take the cover on and off. Pictures are slightly deceiving, there was NO view of mountains from the cabin. Staff was very quick in replying to email and very helpful and kind! Overall a great experience!

Good location, poor communication

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cabin was clean and as advertised. No extras like salt and pepper or foil to use for cooking. Did have adequate pots and pans. Location was close to Gatlinburg. No mountain views from cabin but they are a short walk away. Biggest issue was our check in kept getting moved back because the cabin wasn’t clean. We drove 10 hours and couldn’t check in until 4 hours past the time. It was a pain with food in a cooler and not being able to go to the grocery store as planned until late at night. When I called at the time of our arrival they kept saying it should be soon but then kept getting pushed back. Furniture in living room very uncomfortable as it is quite old with little to no cushion left in the seats.

Gatlinburg Vacation 2024

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The exterior needs to be stained or painted. The furniture needs to be replaced in sitting room. There was dust on the window treatments and the refrigerator does not fit under the cupboards so it sticks out into the room. Cupboards need to be cut to make it fit. The grill needs to be cleaned.
