Wow! What a perfect trip! Our family had a great time staying at this home while enjoying all the great views and nature. I highly recommend if you want to be away in the mountains but have access to amenities just at mountain base. We loved it so much that members of the family already mentioned a trip next year! It was the best of both worlds for us and the property owners took amazing care of us! We were welcomed with an anniversary gift, had everything we needed, were prepped through calls/emails in advance, and even had a small request while there where they sent someone out to address within a few hours! Can't say enough about this place and how well it is run! Thank you so much from our family for the most wonderful stay!!!!
- Posted: 7/1/2025

Thank you so much for the amazing review! We're thrilled to hear that your family had such a wonderful time during your stay. It's our goal to provide a truly exceptional experience, and we're grateful that we were able to exceed your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back for another memorable visit next year. Thank you again for your kind words and for choosing our property.

We all agree this is the best place! We love everything about it. All six couples have their own room and bathroom which is wonderful! Very clean and welcoming! 🙂
- Posted: 5/18/2025

Our stay was fantastic! We were there with 6 adults and 8 almost adults for a soccer tournament (17-18 yr olds) and the house was perfect! The downstairs was perfect for the boys and there was plenty to do with the games and hot tub. Great space to hang out and eat! The kitchen was also very well stocked-something I’ve found unusual at a rental. Stony Brook was awesome-very accommodating from when I called to inquire through after check out. I would definitely use them again and would be delighted to stay at this cabin again if the opportunity arises. I will reiterate that the road to get there is windy, steep at times, so if you are there with a threat of snow, I would 100% make sure you have an AWD vehicle.

This cabin did not disappoint! Accurately described as in pictures. The kitchen was very well stocked. Compared to others it was exceptional. Loved the separate ice maker and additional frig drawers There were 10 of us 2 couples over 80 so 2 masters on main floor were perfect. Location was great as we well know the area. A couple complaints which I DID NOT report #1 broken drawer on bottom of main fridge. #2 shower head needed maintenance in 2floor right bedroom The beds/mattress were very comfortable. This cabin being pet friendly did NOT have a pet odor. Plenty of flat parking. We definitely will return. A!ready working out summer dates. Even with small complaints would rate a #10. Thank you Stony Brook!

We love the cabin! The size and location is wonderful. The staff at Stony Brook are so pleasant and helpful. If I could make a suggestion, the living room furniture id worn out, the couches and chairs are so uncomfortable. New living room furniture would be a plus. The kitchen table and bedroom furniture is all great ! We stay at this cabin every year on our annual girls trip!
- Posted: 11/12/2024

The cabin has great layout, we had 6 families staying and we are all satisfied with the bedrooms, we enjoyed the cozy cabin as well amazing view from the deck.

We had an amazing stay at dancing bear! 17 people and plenty of room for all! The view was beautiful and we got to see a bear right off the porch! Would defiantly go back!
- Posted: 9/23/2024

Cabin was beautiful with plenty of room for our family reunion before our daughter’s wedding. Just disappointed there was construction going on next door and down the street. And no WiFi or tv for the week, which was out of Stony Brook’s control. The staff was very responsive to our requests and did their best to make our stay enjoyable.
- Posted: 8/6/2024

Wonderful lodge to stay- roomy, not extravagant but comfortable in every way! The view is spectacular.

Mountain Cabin outside of Gatlinburg

Very Comfortable cabin big enough for 16 of us plus 2 dogs. The view is amazing!!! King beds & a bath room for each bedroom were great! The kitchen had a number of dishes and tools as well as a two drawer extra fridge and an ice maker. Needed a space for food storage. All had fun in the game room from 7 to 76 years. We saw bears! One with 3 cubs as we began up the mountain. Another bear & cub decided to join us at the fire pit. Our son in law saw her coming so we all were able to grab smores & run into the cabin! We were close to Gatlinburg & other places. Thanks for everything!
- Posted: 6/28/2024

We had a great time! The house is very comfortable throughout with the king beds & personal bathrooms. The kitchen is great with the extra fridge & ice maker! Perhaps combining more of the tools/dishes/etc. together would allow more space for food items. A mama bear & cub showed up while we were having s’mores!!! Uninvited but exciting! The view is amazing!!!! A stool for the hot tub would be helpful. I guess a patch of grass would be difficult to add for dogs. More soap for the tubs, but lots of other items such as paper towels. Thank you! Your cabin is great! Our kids & grandkids loved it! All had fun in the game room!

Beautiful views from the cabin. Well supplied with everything we needed, except Kleenex. Kitchen was well stocked although needed organization. One sink in downstairs bathroom had no running water.
- Posted: 5/27/2024

Great cabin, every bedroom has its own bathroom, fun game room awesome outside area with fire pit and beautiful view on the back deck! The drive up the mountain is quite windy but totally worth it, driveway isn’t a crazy incline like some others. Bonus we saw multiple bears on the mountain during our stay.

Perfect!

We had such a great time at Deer Path Lodge. Loved the extra refrigerator and the ice maker. We enjoyed that we could all sit at the table together to eat and play games. The beds were very comfy and it was great that we each had our own bedroom. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate with rain and wind. But it was great that we could all be together in one place talking and laughing….. Having a great time.

- Posted: 10/21/2023

Everyone in our group commented that this was the first time after many other stays that they felt like the property was as good as the hype. The views of the porch were breathtaking and the ride up was quite exciting. One reason we rented was for the fire pit which we were never able to get working but they did send a maintenance person to check it out. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to go again next year.
- Posted: 10/1/2023

Incredible

Dancing Bear Lodge was incredible! It was beautifully maintained & comfortable. We had 10 adults & 6 children with plenty of room for all of us. We were impressed with how very comfortable the beds were! The best we've ever encountered in renting vacation homes! The views from the decks are indescribable! Wide open mountain views of the sunrise & sunset. We loved the new firepit & cookout area. It was added after we booked & we used it almost every day! Thank you for your excellent communication & assistance!

Amazing

Absolutely amazing, it was everything I had hoped for and more! The lodge was just awesome. I can’t even imagine the scenic views and the wildlife we were able to take in. We had multiple visitors from the family of bears! That was just the great

Beautiful Mountain Views

The cabin was clean and roomy. It is bigger than it looks in the pictures. It had plenty of space for the 13 of us. Our kids enjoyed the pool table and shuffle board. The adults enjoyed sitting in the rocking chairs on the wrap around deck to have their coffee and reminisce. The views are breathtakingly beautiful. The kitchen is well appointed. We lost count of the number of bears we saw…a mother and her cub walked across the front porch in front of the kitchen table window while we were eating breakfast. What a sight!
- Posted: 1/20/2023

Great stay

Property was as described. Fantastic view. We had power outages due to severe cold weather - rolling black outs. Host stayed in communication throughout. Ended up not being a big deal but the communication was appreciated.

We had an amazing trip with Stony Brook cabins. (Dancing bear Lodge) The staff was quick to respond to our questions and followed up with us the next morning to check to see if we needed anything.
- Posted: 12/11/2022

The cabin was spectacular and just right for our large family Christmas get together. Stony Brooks called to check on us the morning after our arrival and that is a nice touch. The cabin was clean, the beds were comfortable and most all the appliances worked just fine. We have been coming up and staying at cabins for many years and all the group said this was the best one yet. We will return.
- Posted: 11/14/2022

Very friendly staff. I felt very welcome. Any questions issues were promptly addressed in a very professional manner. The Dancing Bear cabin was perfectly located and accommodated our party well! Loved every thing about it.
- Posted: 11/6/2022

Excellent cabin. Especially the fire pit. I called the office to report that the tub wasn’t draining well and they fixed it that afternoon.
- Posted: 10/23/2022

Great for family gathering

Property was perfect for large family gathering. We enjoyed it all...the game room, the comfy sofas, the hot tub, the fire pit. You absolutely have to be bear aware, but the views are amazing

Exceeds Expectations

As a frequent traveler and home share renter, I am sometimes nervous about renting big homes that can be used and abused by large groups of people. While Dancing Bear Lodge is a 6 bed, 6 bath home and can sleep more than 15 people, I was pleasantly surprised at how clean, comfortable and welcoming the home was for our group. From handwritten welcome notes and gifts, to a sparkling clean home, to some of the most comfortable beds I have slept on, the home was just perfect. The outdoor spaces were plentiful and the views were incredible. Our group of 10 adults and 2 children were very at home and enjoyed every minute of the stay. We saw a mama black bear and her 3 cubs each of the 5 days we were there....some days they walked right up on the porch! They were so cute! The grounds were lovely as well. We enjoyed time in the National Park and Dollywood (30 minutes away for each), s'mores by the fire and family dinners/game night at the large table. I also triumped over a few shuffleboard games! We were so impressed with the house overall and highly recommend.
- Posted: 9/24/2022

House was exactly as promised and Stony Brook's people were AMAZING! They handled an issue we had quickly and efficiently, and answered our many questions.
- Posted: 9/24/2022

We (10 of our family from 4 states) loved the cabin and especially the bears that came almost daily. The fire pit was an extra special bonus to us. The Stony Brook crew were excellent, calling to check on us to see if we needed anything. An incident happened and they were there to take care of. Hopefully we can come back to this cabin soon.
- Posted: 9/17/2022

Clean and comfy home. Far exceeded expectations. Saw multiple bears. Stunning
- Posted: 9/6/2022

We had a great time, lots of room and a great gameroom, the beds were very comfortable and big.

It was everything we expected and more. We also had bear visitors almost every day.
- Posted: 8/15/2022

We enjoyed our stay at Dancing Bear Lodge very much. The house was perfect for our large family. We had bears visit almost every day and even got to see 3 cubs right in the backyard while we were on our porch. The beds were very comfortable and having bathrooms and a tv in each room was also perfect. We would definitely stay there again if we come back. Customer service at Stony Brook was excellent as well. They were very responsive with anything that we needed. Overall excellent experience!!

Everything about this cabin was amazing. The rental management was also amazing!!
- Posted: 7/9/2022

Stony Brook was fantastic to work with. They were helpful from my first phone call asking about the location of the cabin prior to booking, where they answered all my questions and gave me advice. During the visit they called twice to make sure everything was going well and that we didn’t need anything. We have stayed in multiple cabins in the area, but will always look at Stony Brook first now. It was a great experience and we loved this Dancing Bear Lodge!
- Posted: 6/28/2022

Wonderful view. Plenty of room. Plenty of parking. Quiet, away from the noise…able to enjoy views, birds singing and just sitting. Ease of checking in and out.

Wonderful and very well equipped kitchen.

We all had a great time. The beds were very comfortable. The fire pit was awesome and so nice to turn on with a switch. No smoke or firewood to deal with. The only complaint was the downstairs was cold. The owners should have a space heater or an additional unit to control the downstairs. Would be nice to have a bit more cabinet space in the kitchen Crowe our condiments and food. Overall, great house!!

Overall, our stay was very nice. We enjoyed seeing a mama and 2 cubs before we left. The firepit was a nice feature and the view was great.

We have rented in Gatlinburg from other companies but stony brook was the most professional, organized, communicative company I’ve ever dealt with. Their employees were kind, caring and met all of our needs and answered all of our questions. I want to rent from them always in the future. What a fabulous trip from start to finish!

This is by far the best cabin view we ever had. The cabin itself was beautiful. Easy to find parking was great. And bears everyday.

We had an amazing stay! The house is stunning and the view can only be described as a million dollar view of the beautiful mountain ranges. We are looking forward to making this our families annual getaway. The people at Stoney Brook were amazing as well! 10+ for customer service! We didn't have any bear visitors, but we will hope for next time. Very peaceful and serene!

Dancing Bear Lodge was incredible! It was beautifully maintained & comfortable. We had 10 adults & 6 children with plenty of room for all of us. We were impressed with how very comfortable the beds were! The best we've ever encountered in renting vacation homes! The views from the decks are indescribable! Wide open mountain views of the sunrise & sunset. We loved the new firepit & cookout area. It was added after we booked & we used it almost every day!

Snow, Beautiful view, spacious cabin.

We rented this cabin after searching tirelessly for a cabin to have a small wedding celebration. We wanted enough bedrooms to have our closest family and friends stay in, a great view, and also a floor plan that was spacious enough for everyone to feel comfortable up moving around. Me and my husband got married on 10/10/20 but due to covid and our schedules, we weren't able to have a wedding ceremony or any type of celebration. So that's why we wanted to take this trip. The beds were super comfortable, the kitchen was stocked fairly well with dishes and utensils, bathrooms had plenty of towels, and the cabin was very clean. My only complaints were the dishwasher that didn't clean very well and there was only one trash bag provided for such a large cabin and 3-4 day stay. It snowed the day we arrived and into the night, making for a beautiful weekend. The pool table was a big hit for the adults and the kids loved the shuffle board! If we ever need a cabin this size again, we will definitely be booking another stay here!

The cabin we stayed in was very well equipped, it had everything that you need in the kitchen. Everything was cleaned and good kept. Is close to town and easy to access. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back again.

I even received a personal birthday card signed by the staff with a cute bear. I didn't realize the bear was a gift until I left, but the thought was very nice. I would definitely stay again.

The cabin was absolutely beautiful. The view was just breathtaking!! The cabin was very well stocked in all areas. Bathroom supplies , kitchen supplies, etc. Everything was wonderful and would highly recommend this cabin and this company to others!! AND WE SAW BEARS!!

The Dancing Bear Lodge was everything that was advertised and more. This was the first time that me and my brothers have all been together under one roof since we were kids. It truly was a beautiful experience and with the mountains and seeing bears made it all surreal. If my mother was alive she would've been truly excited and proud. Thank you Stony Brook Cabins for being courteous host.

After being on quarantine, this property was just what we needed, an amazing place to be with family and friends! Thank you!

Everything within the cabin and grounds were beautiful. The lower level mattresses do not appear new ( only a comment not anything more) Also to warn about the Mama Bear that visited us quit frequently. As beautiful as it is to see them she suck up on us quit a bit. We definitely will visit again, the overall experience, cabin and views were beautiful!

The whole process was great...making the reservations online and communicating with the ladies over the phone and via email. Very helpful. The house was very clean and beautiful.

Everything and More

The beds are spectacular. The kitchen is so well equipped I won’t have to move my kitchen next year. The only thing I would change is larger TV in den because we are football fans and like to be together and light over kitchen sink. This is a 5 Star cabin & then some. BEAUTIFUL VIEW. Best we’ve had in 12 years.

Wow! What a perfect trip! Our family had a great time staying at this home while enjoying all the great views and nature. I highly recommend if you want to be away in the mountains but have access to amenities just at mountain base. We loved it so much that members of the family already mentioned a trip next year! It was the best of both worlds for us and the property owners took amazing care of us! We were welcomed with an anniversary gift, had everything we needed, were prepped through calls/emails in advance, and even had a small request while there where they sent someone out to address within a few hours! Can't say enough about this place and how well it is run! Thank you so much from our family for the most wonderful stay!!!!

Our stay was fantastic! We were there with 6 adults and 8 almost adults for a soccer tournament (17-18 yr olds) and the house was perfect! The downstairs was perfect for the boys and there was plenty to do with the games and hot tub. Great space to hang out and eat! The kitchen was also very well stocked-something I’ve found unusual at a rental. Stony Brook was awesome-very accommodating from when I called to inquire through after check out. I would definitely use them again and would be delighted to stay at this cabin again if the opportunity arises. I will reiterate that the road to get there is windy, steep at times, so if you are there with a threat of snow, I would 100% make sure you have an AWD vehicle.

This cabin did not disappoint! Accurately described as in pictures. The kitchen was very well stocked. Compared to others it was exceptional. Loved the separate ice maker and additional frig drawers There were 10 of us 2 couples over 80 so 2 masters on main floor were perfect. Location was great as we well know the area. A couple complaints which I DID NOT report #1 broken drawer on bottom of main fridge. #2 shower head needed maintenance in 2floor right bedroom The beds/mattress were very comfortable. This cabin being pet friendly did NOT have a pet odor. Plenty of flat parking. We definitely will return. A!ready working out summer dates. Even with small complaints would rate a #10. Thank you Stony Brook!

We love the cabin! The size and location is wonderful. The staff at Stony Brook are so pleasant and helpful. If I could make a suggestion, the living room furniture id worn out, the couches and chairs are so uncomfortable. New living room furniture would be a plus. The kitchen table and bedroom furniture is all great ! We stay at this cabin every year on our annual girls trip!

Cabin was beautiful with plenty of room for our family reunion before our daughter’s wedding. Just disappointed there was construction going on next door and down the street. And no WiFi or tv for the week, which was out of Stony Brook’s control. The staff was very responsive to our requests and did their best to make our stay enjoyable.

Very Comfortable cabin big enough for 16 of us plus 2 dogs. The view is amazing!!! King beds & a bath room for each bedroom were great! The kitchen had a number of dishes and tools as well as a two drawer extra fridge and an ice maker. Needed a space for food storage. All had fun in the game room from 7 to 76 years. We saw bears! One with 3 cubs as we began up the mountain. Another bear & cub decided to join us at the fire pit. Our son in law saw her coming so we all were able to grab smores & run into the cabin! We were close to Gatlinburg & other places. Thanks for everything!
Mary

Posted: 6/28/2024

We had a great time! The house is very comfortable throughout with the king beds & personal bathrooms. The kitchen is great with the extra fridge & ice maker! Perhaps combining more of the tools/dishes/etc. together would allow more space for food items. A mama bear & cub showed up while we were having s’mores!!! Uninvited but exciting! The view is amazing!!!! A stool for the hot tub would be helpful. I guess a patch of grass would be difficult to add for dogs. More soap for the tubs, but lots of other items such as paper towels. Thank you! Your cabin is great! Our kids & grandkids loved it! All had fun in the game room!

Great cabin, every bedroom has its own bathroom, fun game room awesome outside area with fire pit and beautiful view on the back deck! The drive up the mountain is quite windy but totally worth it, driveway isn’t a crazy incline like some others. Bonus we saw multiple bears on the mountain during our stay.

We had such a great time at Deer Path Lodge. Loved the extra refrigerator and the ice maker. We enjoyed that we could all sit at the table together to eat and play games. The beds were very comfy and it was great that we each had our own bedroom. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate with rain and wind. But it was great that we could all be together in one place talking and laughing….. Having a great time.

Everyone in our group commented that this was the first time after many other stays that they felt like the property was as good as the hype. The views of the porch were breathtaking and the ride up was quite exciting. One reason we rented was for the fire pit which we were never able to get working but they did send a maintenance person to check it out. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to go again next year.

The cabin was clean and roomy. It is bigger than it looks in the pictures. It had plenty of space for the 13 of us. Our kids enjoyed the pool table and shuffle board. The adults enjoyed sitting in the rocking chairs on the wrap around deck to have their coffee and reminisce. The views are breathtakingly beautiful. The kitchen is well appointed. We lost count of the number of bears we saw…a mother and her cub walked across the front porch in front of the kitchen table window while we were eating breakfast. What a sight!

As a frequent traveler and home share renter, I am sometimes nervous about renting big homes that can be used and abused by large groups of people. While Dancing Bear Lodge is a 6 bed, 6 bath home and can sleep more than 15 people, I was pleasantly surprised at how clean, comfortable and welcoming the home was for our group. From handwritten welcome notes and gifts, to a sparkling clean home, to some of the most comfortable beds I have slept on, the home was just perfect. The outdoor spaces were plentiful and the views were incredible. Our group of 10 adults and 2 children were very at home and enjoyed every minute of the stay. We saw a mama black bear and her 3 cubs each of the 5 days we were there....some days they walked right up on the porch! They were so cute! The grounds were lovely as well. We enjoyed time in the National Park and Dollywood (30 minutes away for each), s'mores by the fire and family dinners/game night at the large table. I also triumped over a few shuffleboard games! We were so impressed with the house overall and highly recommend.

We (10 of our family from 4 states) loved the cabin and especially the bears that came almost daily. The fire pit was an extra special bonus to us. The Stony Brook crew were excellent, calling to check on us to see if we needed anything. An incident happened and they were there to take care of. Hopefully we can come back to this cabin soon.

Stony Brook was fantastic to work with. They were helpful from my first phone call asking about the location of the cabin prior to booking, where they answered all my questions and gave me advice. During the visit they called twice to make sure everything was going well and that we didn’t need anything. We have stayed in multiple cabins in the area, but will always look at Stony Brook first now. It was a great experience and we loved this Dancing Bear Lodge!

I even received a personal birthday card signed by the staff with a cute bear. I didn't realize the bear was a gift until I left, but the thought was very nice. I would definitely stay again.

I loved the fact that you called us the morning after our arrival to see if we needed anything. You were very responsive when we needed a trash pick up. The house was beautiful and spacious for our six family units. I absolutely recommend Stony Brook Cabins!

The Dancing Bear Lodge was everything that was advertised and more. This was the first time that me and my brothers have all been together under one roof since we were kids. It truly was a beautiful experience and with the mountains and seeing bears made it all surreal. If my mother was alive she would've been truly excited and proud. Thank you Stony Brook Cabins for being courteous host.

Everything within the cabin and grounds were beautiful. The lower level mattresses do not appear new ( only a comment not anything more) Also to warn about the Mama Bear that visited us quit frequently. As beautiful as it is to see them she suck up on us quit a bit. We definitely will visit again, the overall experience, cabin and views were beautiful!

The whole process was great...making the reservations online and communicating with the ladies over the phone and via email. Very helpful. The house was very clean and beautiful.

The beds are spectacular. The kitchen is so well equipped I won’t have to move my kitchen next year. The only thing I would change is larger TV in den because we are football fans and like to be together and light over kitchen sink. This is a 5 Star cabin & then some. BEAUTIFUL VIEW. Best we’ve had in 12 years.
