With breathtaking, panoramic views of Mt. LeConte, Gatlinburg, and the Great Smoky Mountains, this gorgeous, four-season, five-bedroom rustic mountain lodge sleeps 16. It is tucked into the trees above the Ober Mountain ski resort, just a five-minute drive away.
Recently repainted in a combination of exciting and restful colors, "Bears on Skis" is the ideal destination for those who want the full Smoky Mountain experience when it comes to spectacular views from high above Gatlinburg but who also want to be close both to the National Park and to all the area's fun attractions. Gatlinburg and the park entrance are just short drives away; you can hike, play, come home, and go out again.
In winter, enjoy epic views of the skiers on the slopes of Ober Mountain. In spring, summer, and fall, "Bears on Skis" offers amazing views of Mount Le Conte and beyond, acres of glorious trees (a stunning sight in the fall), and even a cable car in the distance. Two lovely, family-friendly pools, tennis courts, and clubhouses for summer use are only a five-minute drive away. Wildlife on Ski Mountain is abundant and part of the fun of renting this home. There is a huge deck with a Charcoal grill in the driveway. On the deck you will find a dining table; you rarely have eaten or spent time with family and friends in such a beautiful setting.
Bears on Skis has ultra high-speed internet and 7 Roku smart TVs allowing access to your favorite streaming services. The cabin also provides Spectrum cable with local and news channels that you can stream through every TV.
Accommodations include five bedrooms, each with a private bathroom with shower and bathtub, smart TV, and decorated in mountain style.
Four bedrooms have king beds, dressers, and their own stunning views; the fifth has a queen-over-queen bunk and is right next to one of the king rooms. All four main rooms are of roughly equal size and have comparably stunning mountain views.
The living room features recliner couches, rustic decor (including custom wooden carvings of bears in the woods), and a wood-burning fireplace. There also is a second living room with swivel couches for maximum enjoyment of the view and to ensure your group has enough space for everyone.
The well-equipped kitchen includes a huge fridge/freezer, stove with smooth cooktop, new microwave, new dishwasher, toaster, slow cooker, and both pod and standard coffeemakers with a grinder for your beans.
The game room features pro-quality air hockey, a multicade arcade game set to free play, board games, and a sound table with a charging station and a high-quality speaker to stream your music.
Outside, you'll find the huge deck overlooking the mountains, complete with rockers, loungers, outdoor dining, and coffee tables. A well-placed hot tub allows you to enjoy the view as you soak amid twinkling lights.
Please note, Bears on Skis is located on a well-paved and city-maintained road. With that said it there will be curves and steep sections as we are in the mountains. The driveway can accommodate 4-5 cars and you will need to reverse out of the driveway.
This beautiful lodge is ideal for anyone who truly wants to experience the heart of Gatlinburg and the glories of the Great Smoky Mountains!
