1549 Bears Den Way
About This Property
1549 Bears Den Way has delivered multiple six-figure gross income years, including annual revenue exceeding $140,000 with occupancy approaching 280 nights in peak performance years. This is a demonstrated, income-producing cabin -- not a projection.
Located extremely close to Dollywood, one of the Smokies' most powerful year-round tourism drivers, the property benefits from consistent family demand, multi-generational travel, and repeat bookings in a high-visibility corridor.
Thoughtfully designed for group appeal, this 5-bedroom cabin (including three king bedrooms) spans three levels with intentional separation of entertainment and sleeping areas. The main level features an open-concept kitchen and great room flowing onto an expansive main view deck overlooking the Smoky Mountains. Guests repeatedly describe the setting as ''breathtaking'' and the cabin as ''immaculate, comfortable, and absolutely beautiful.''
The lower level provides built-in booking security with a dedicated theater room and game room, ensuring year-round appeal regardless of weather. Additional features include a private hot tub, access to a shared indoor resort pool, pet-friendly accommodations, nearly 500 Mbps high-speed WiFi, multiple outdoor living areas, and a fully equipped kitchen that guests call ''fully stocked with everything you need.''
Recent guest feedback includes:
''The best Airbnb we've stayed at.''
''The views were amazing.''
''Perfect for multiple couples and families.''
The combination of prime location near Dollywood, mountain views, strong bedroom count, and entertainment-driven amenities positions this property in the upper tier of Smoky Mountain short-term rental inventory.
