Located on the river and with a rustic flair in the rooms but yet contemporary enough to not be tacky. Well-appointed with a lot of pride in the history of Gatlinburg displayed throughout the building.

We loved our stay at the Bearskin Lodge! The rooms were clean and so spacious! The hard wood floor fit in well with the lodge theme, the fireplace was so nice when coming in from the cold and the balcony overlooking the river was peaceful. The staff was also super friendly and helpful.

Lovely place to stay. Room is roomy, clean, beds are comfy. The balcony overlooking the water is beautiful and peaceful and we got to see a very big black bear walking down the water and rocky areas from our balcony, a safe distance. The hotel safe were very nice, informative and accommodating. The hotel is in the perfect location as well. Highly recommend.

The room and view were amazing. Getting to use the fireplace while watching it snow outside was unbelievably beautiful. The staff were so friendly and helpful. When we returned every evening there was warm apple cider to completely round out the rustic cabin feel. We will definitely stay here again.
