Big Bear Hideaway

Stunning view await you at this well-appointed two-story cabin overlooking the Great Smoky Mountains.
Located near the top of the mountain in a gated community.
Have a relaxing stay along with plenty of outdoor activities close by! Historic downtown Franklin is a short drive with local shops, museums, restaurants and craft breweries. Take a stroll along the Greenway bordering the Little Tennessee River. Do not miss the local thrift and consignment antique shops with unique and rare finds.

Enter the cabin from the wrap around deck above the driveway to a spacious living area. Two large bedrooms downstairs with a queen-sized bed in one and two extra-long twin beds in the other. There is also a full bath on the first floor.
The second story has a bedroom with a king-sized bed and a full bath in the hall.
The living room has a fireplace, beautiful windows and sliding glass doors that lead out to the large deck overlooking the mountains.
There is a fully equipped kitchen with stove, oven and microwave and a full-sized refrigerator. Gas grill on the deck outside the kitchen door. Full-sized washer and dryer on the main floor.
Sorry no pets allowed.

*You will have to bring your own firewood but that can be bought at Lowes or most convenience stores.

Highly recommend this mountain cabin!!! We rented this lovely cabin for four nights so my daughters (ages 1, 7, and 9), mom, and I could visit family, and I am so glad we did. The location was perfect, the community was safe and quiet, and the house was well stocked, organized, and cozy! Everything is exactly as advertised on the website, and the owner communicated quickly whenever I had questions. We loved it, and plan to book again next time we go to visit.

Stayed 4 nights in May 2025
