Great Family Cabin!

Our only complaint was the “community pool” and lake was about a 20 minute drive from the cabin. The cabin itself was perfect and as advertised.

Check-in was easy. Wi-Fi was fine. The dishwasher did not work. I had to buy dish soap and a sponge to do the dishes. They only provided a tiny little bottle of dish soap. The kitchen was well stocked, but could use a few plastic cups for the kids.

Wonderful for a large family.

Our second stay in the Playful Bear was great for the whole family, just like the first. With boys aged 5 to 15, there was plenty of amenities to occupy the whole family. It is also very convenient to the Publix and attractions in Pigeon Forge.

Great, Family Friendly Property

This was a great, clean and fun house. Fireside Chalet was wonderful to work with. The location is up in the mountains a little to feel like you were away from the hustle and bustle, but still very close to all in Pigeon Forge.

Great Location and very nice home.

The Home met all expectations. Was clean, had all the necessary items for a comfortable, home away from home stay. The property managers were great and answered all questions there were. Will definitely use them again.
