Great stay, we especially loved the basement in the summer

The basement suite was perfect for a family of four with young kids (there was a small step into one of the bedrooms, but no one ever tripped). While the June weather was hot and muggy, the basement was consistently cool and comfortable. The kitchen was easy to cook in, the beds were comfortable, and the location was convenient.

Always Love Staying at the “Bear House”

This was our second return visit to the same apartment in the basement. Great cozy apartment, accessories, clean stocked bathroom. Especially love the covered patio with water fountains and little birds dropping by for a dip and a sip! Very relaxing accommodations and the best hosts we’ve experienced!

Lovely Stay

Came in town for the Hooch and it was a great location to stay outside of right downtown. The location was nice and quiet. Several rooms for groups to stay, but you never heard anyone else. Plenty of parking for all. Came and went as we pleased.

Quaintest little Apartment around Chattanooga

The entire Bear house property is incredibly charming and inviting. The Stinson Suite was as well. The space is incredibly charming and cozy perfect for 1-2 couples or a small family. St Elmo is a lovely town and is perfectly walkable from the property. Beautiful area and so many great options for food, shopping, and experiences nearby.

Lookout mountain stay (July 24')

The Stinson suite at the Bear house is everything advertised. It is large and very welcoming. The owners of the property live on site and are super friendly and helpful. We only stayed 3 nights and it was not long enough. We travel to Tennessee a couple of times a year and we DEFINITELY will return to stay here again.

Great family getaway

We had a great time at Bear House! Such a charming and unique place to stay. We stayed in the Stinson suite and it worked perfectly for our family of 4. Two separate bedrooms and a TV in the master allowed us some time to relax together after our kids went to sleep. The kids loved all the statues to look at in the yard. It's within walking distance of a few restaurants, which was very helpful. We are already planning to come back again!
