WE loved the cabin so much ! Everyone had a private place to relax and nap. The game room kept as all busy when we weren't out and about. The view was second to none!

This cabin is beautiful and in a remote location. Anyone that is afraid of heights or gets motion sickness easily should avoid booking this cabin. The views are spectacular.

Very nice Cabin, Great view, Very nice furnishings, I have always been able to go somewhere one time and I knew my way in and out, but not here, a lot of turns, and blind intersections, very treacherous at night, other than that it was perfect !

Awesome cabin!

I loved this cabin...perfect for my husband and I and a separate living area for my two adult sons. I hope to be back again in the future. It was just perfect
- Posted: 10/15/2024

Gorgeous cabin, with lots of room and privacy for adult kids on a separate floor with everything you need! Loved this cabin so much, keeping it in my file for future stays.

Our stay was very nice, as usual. Thanks for all you do to make us comfortable.
- Posted: 9/24/2024

My family and I had a wonderful time. The cabin was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The views are second to none!
- Posted: 8/7/2024

Loved every minute of our stay! The drive up the mountain is intimidating (we refused to stay out past dusk as there are lots of winding roads with no light or guard rails in places) but once you get there, it’s worth it!

Bear & Trout

Wife wanted to see bears and we seen plenty
- Posted: 7/26/2024

Beautiful cabin with a beautiful view
- Posted: 7/20/2024

We loved staying at the bear and the trout! The location is perfect, we saw bears almost every day, and the layout was really nice for our family. My only suggestion would be to add a baby gate for the stairs, and a few more towels. We didn’t really have enough to go around, especially for those using the hot tub. We had a few issues with bugs (worms) and the air conditioner, but those were addressed immediately by the Stonybrook team. It was a great stay, and we will be back.
- Posted: 7/1/2024

Great stay highly recommended. Breath taking views!
- Posted: 5/11/2024

Awesome place and a great value! The view is amazing. They were quick to respond and resolved any issue quickly. We will definitely be back!
- Posted: 4/29/2024

Fantastic! Ronda was awesome and very accommodating! Cabin was clean beautiful and perfect for our trip!
- Posted: 3/25/2024

We loved the cabin! The view was amazing and the location was perfect! Loved the easy parking….flat and right off the road! The cabin is right on top of downtown Gatlinburg so it was nice not having to fight the traffic every time we went out. We would for sure stay here again!
- Posted: 3/11/2024

Great!!
- Posted: 2/15/2024

Beautiful cabin in mountains

This 4 bedroom, 4 private bathroom cabin was absolutely perfect for our group of 8. The view was stunning! The outdoor seating, fireplace and hot tub are the perfect addition to this beautiful home. We couldn't have asked for more, except for maybe a few more days!!! I really appreciated the personalized customer service and follow up once we arrived at the cabin. The staff was so helpful and friendly. I will definitely be looking here first the next time we come to Tennessee.
from Eden - Posted: 2/2/2024

The cabin was beautiful and spacious. Large bedrooms and bathrooms for every guest. Great entertainment option downstairs and the TVs had content to watch. The views were amazing and the hot tub was a nice amenity. The only thing I would be aware of is, when driving in the snowy conditions the roads up to the cabin may be nervy for some, especially at night. Other than that, the parking is very convenient and it is close to downtown Gatlinburg, very close to Ober Mountain, and not far from Pigeon Forge. Highly recommend it for large groups that want a comfortable space and convenience for activities in town.
- Posted: 1/21/2024

We loved staying at the Bear & Trout. The view was amazing! The house was cozy and still large enough to accommodate, comfortably, our extended family. The pool table and arcade game provided hours of entertainment. 100% recommend!
- Posted: 1/7/2024

The view during the morning, afternoon and evening was breathtaking! The cabin was beautiful and clean. The wrap around porch with the hot tub was amazing to sit on/in at night and just relax. It had it all. But more than anything, it was a home away from home.
- Posted: 12/28/2023

Beautiful view

We loved our time at the cabin. Beautiful view and the neighborhood is peaceful. The layout of the cabin was perfect for our group. We had 2 people with disabilities that limit their mobility and the 2 king rooms on the main floor were perfect and easy to access.
- Posted: 12/18/2023

Beautiful views and lovely cabin!
- Posted: 12/8/2023

Great spot, good location, amazing views. The family had a good time, plenty of space, and things to do in the cabin.
- Posted: 11/26/2023

Beautiful cabin and stunning views. Just the cabin we were looking for.
- Posted: 11/14/2023

Outstanding view and excellent cabin!

The view from the cabin was glorious! The cabin itself could not have been better!! We had four families and it worked perfectly. All king beds, 4 bathrooms and a well equipped kitchen. My grandkids loved the pool table and arcade game. We would highly recommend this cabin. And the property manager was helpful and prompt.
- Posted: 11/5/2023

Awesome long weekend

The perfect cabin for a long weekend with family. The view was absolutely stunning. The cabin was very clean. We loved that there weren’t any steps to get into the cabin, only going to the basement obviously. Plenty of cleaning supplies ( dish soap, dishwasher pods,etc.). We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!
- Posted: 10/24/2023

Cabin was just as described and maybe even better! Super clean and the views were amazing! The GPS was definitely needed as lots of twists and turns, and different ways of getting in - but well worth the drive!
- Posted: 10/23/2023

Love the cabin!! Love the view!!
- Posted: 10/21/2023

We had a great stay at The bear and trout cabin. It was clean and spacious and the views were out of this world!!
- Posted: 10/20/2023

Amazing Views

Awesome Cabin. If you are looking for unlimited mountain views, this is your cabin. Check in was seamless. Had a couple minor issues and Stony Brook was fast to respond. Easy 10 min scenic drive to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Only thing kissing is some family board games and some playing cards, but other than that, the cabin is perfect.
from Satellite Beach FL - Posted: 9/14/2023

Awesome cabin. Perfect for a family getaway. Comfortable king beds in every room with a bathroom attached. The most amazing view of the double decks. House was easy for my handicap grandmother to get it. We also saw a few bears a few days! Will definitely highly recommend.
- Posted: 8/19/2023

The staff at Stony Brook was excellent. They always took their time talking to us throughout the process. The cabin was clean and beautiful.

Wonderful home

Very nice home, beautiful location, plenty of space for four couples. Would be nice if they supplied more toilet paper and paper towels for a one week stay.
- Posted: 5/20/2023

This cabin and staff were great!! Everything from start to finish was wonderful. Would definitely stay there again!

Fantastic cabin for a large family. Beautiful views combined with comfortable rooms and great customer service from Rhonda and her staff made for a wonderful vacation. Already booked for next year!
- Posted: 2/19/2023

Great cabin! We would definitely stay here again.

Very clean, good location between PF and GB. However, the cabin is located on a mountain and you have to travel in a very steep, curvy road. We wouldn’t try to make it there in the snow or ice, but it was easy to get to for our fall break trip. Our parents stayed with us too, so we appreciated the 4 king suites, each with its own bathroom, and two of them were on the main level, which was perfect for our parents who can’t/shouldn’t climb too many stairs. Stony Brook was very reachable for any questions we had and everyone was super nice!
- Posted: 10/27/2022

It was a pleasure to stay here and the response to a small issue was addressed immediately. You couldn't ask for a better experience.
- Posted: 10/21/2022

Check in and check out was a seamless process. Everything was clean and ready at check in.
- Posted: 10/17/2022

Super nice cabin with a great view. Stony Brook’s staff were really nice to talk to. Comfortable mattresses, everyone slept well. Our parents joined us on this trip and a couple of them can’t/ shouldn’t climb stairs, so we really appreciated the main entrance and master suites on the main level. With king rooms and bathrooms on the lower level, we had plenty of room for 9 adults and a toddler. Just need a few more remotes for the TVs, but that didn’t have a negative impact on our stay. Roads to get there are definitely mountain roads, so I wouldn’t want to try to get to the cabin w snow or ice on the roads, but it was fine for our fall break trip. Beautiful area and cabin, and good memories made! Thank you, Stony Brook, we would rent again!
- Posted: 10/12/2022

We had a wonderful time! The staff we worked with was great and answered any questions we had quickly.
- Posted: 6/23/2022

Bear and trout was a great cabin. We stay in cabins every year and this cabin by far is above the rest.
- Posted: 6/17/2022

The cabin was fantastic. Our group had a great time. A couple of notes for you The outdoor fireplace on the upstairs deck did not work. The door to the room downstairs furthest from the stairs would not latch. Neither item impacted our stay at all. Wonderful place
- Posted: 5/15/2022

20 years of booking cabins and this was the smoothest experience as well as everyone enjoyed the cabin!
- Posted: 3/20/2022

Our cabin was perfect. We had an issue with the outdoor fireplace, which of course we did not know until evening. I called the after hours number to report. It was a little confusing as to who I should have reported this to. The next day I did receive a return call and that evening we were able to enjoy the outdoor fireplace. Pilot light issue. This was the best evening, just relaxing by the fire place. Also, we were all so excited over the number of towels, paper towels and toliet tissue given for our stay. It was great to not have to worry about a store run for these items. OH, and coffee to get us started was so much appreciated.
- Posted: 3/16/2022

Beautiful cabin with everything you need. Loved the deck furniture and hot tub. Awesome view!
- Posted: 2/7/2022

All was good. Appreciated the calls to check on us. Might try to rent it again next year.
- Posted: 11/28/2021

It was awesome! You done excellent ! I would definitely recommend to family and friends.
- Posted: 11/21/2021

We found his cabin an excellent place to stay with one of the premier views of the mountains. Amenities provided were more than adequate and the calls to check if everything was ok were much appreciated. Look forward to next year.
- Posted: 10/22/2021

Our family loved the cabin. Having a bathroom for each bedroom was perfect. We enjoyed the pool table, hot tub and outdoor fireplace on the deck. Having breakfast on the deck with a lovely view was wonderful!
- Posted: 10/15/2021

We were all very happy (eight adults and one teenager) with the cabin. The game room provided hours of entertainment. The cabin was also big enough to allow everyone ample space. Any calls to rental staff were answered with genuine hospitality.

- Posted: 8/22/2021

Stony Brook staff was very welcoming. They checked in often to make sure we did not encounter any issues. They followed up with any questions that we had. The cabin was very clean and well stocked with most items.
- Posted: 8/14/2021

The cabin was beautiful! The view was amazing. It was very clean and packed with extras. We really enjoyed the bear and trout.
- Posted: 7/24/2021

Looking forward to coming back

Definitely recommend this property. The views are completely unobstructed and spectacular. We did have a bear visit the first couple days of out trip, don't worry he was below the decks. The house was exactly what we needed with our party of 11. The downstairs was perfect for the teenager/pre-teen group and the upstairs guests with the baby were unaffected by the noise. The pool is a mile from the house and very nice. This welcome center is down the mountain so the location is great for picking up the trolley. This property is 5* for sure.

No damage to interior just dirt & crumbs.. next day we spot our bear on the road back to our cabin!! Kids loved the experience… GREAT TIME!! We will talk about our bear for many years!

Our family group of 10 had a very pleasant and memorable time at Bear and Trout. The cabin is very well maintained and cleaned. Great mealtime space and kitchen essentials The morning sunrises were awesome slows with the daily Mountain View’s. One evening we had a unforgettable visit by a bear and her 3 cubs. A great stay and will be back. Thank you Stony Brook

The Bear & Trout cabin was the perfect house for our girls week away! The house was immaculate & the staff at Stony Brook was friendly & helpful! We all had an awesome week! I would definitely recommend Stony Brook to anyone looking for a place to rent! Awesome week all the way around!
- Posted: 9/25/2020

This was a much needed getaway! The cabin was beautiful, well kept, clean and THE VIEW!! The view was to die for. I would definitely stay at the Bear and Trout again. This cabin would have been well deserving of a 5 star review but the Wifi signal was a bit weak and 2 of the televisions were not working.
- Posted: 9/13/2020

Everything was beautiful and clean! The views are out of this world and we loved seeing bears each day!

Great Stay at Beautiful New Cabin!

Very nicely equipped and decorated cabin, spacious, clean, great decks with fantastic views, had a wonderful time watching the wildlife and the stars! The drive/parking Is right off the road so no need to worry about windy driveway! Will definitely choose this cabin again when we come back to the Smokey Mountains!
- Posted: 7/28/2020

We enjoyed our stay at Bear and Trout Cabin. The cabin was very well equipped, clean, great decorating and very comfortable beds. It was spacious and uncluttered. The parking was right in front of the house which was nice because you didn't have to navigate any long windy driveways. Decks and Hot Tub allowed us to view all the nature during the day and stars at night!
- Posted: 7/25/2020

fantastic get-a-way

great location, great home.
- Posted: 7/21/2020

The View is absolutely stunning and it changes as the day goes by.

The back deck is where you'll want to spend most of your time. The place was clean, spacious and did not want for anything. We saw bears on the front porch then walking down our street the morning we were leaving. Awesome animals so read up about how to act around them. The fire history on that ridge is fascinating, humbling and saddening. Some cabin owners haven't rebuilt so you get to see what's left and the engineering involved. The roads to get up and down can be scary and or intimidating to some but the drives are well worth it. Again, the views are gorgeous and so is the cabin and we will be going back for sure!! Thank you awesome management team!!
- Posted: 7/20/2020

The bear and trout cabin has an amazing view!! We had a great time! Definitely will be returning using Stony Brook Cabins. During our stay we seen 6 bear!! We had a minor issue they they came right away and took care of. They were super friendly!!
- Posted: 7/20/2020

Wow! Just wow!

The first words out of ours mouths when we walked in was WOW! This place is gorgeous! From the decorations to the views. We never wanted to leave! The beds were very comfortable. Plenty of towels for everyone. The kitchen had all the dishes we needed, including a crock pot, which we used everyday! There were plenty of dishes for our group of 8. We enjoyed the deck furniture the most. We sat out every night with a glass of wine and enjoyed the view. Even during a rain shower we stayed dry. The kids enjoyed the lower level. They liked having a small fridge for their drinks. The parking is flat right in front of the cabin, no steep driveway. If you’re prone to motion sickness I’d advice taking something for the drive up and down! It’s a long windy road but definitely worth it for the views! The neighborhood pool was great too! We have no complaints about this property! It’s amazing how a short 10 minute drive you’re away from the noise of the city. It’s so peaceful. We saw a bear almost every day along side the road somewhere. Even saw one climb a tree from our deck! Book this cabin now! You won’t regret it!

Awesome views!!

Our cabin was very clean and had all the amenities you could ask for. Furniture and bedding was very comfortable. The view was beautiful despite the trees that were burned by the fire that took place 4 years ago. Many homes are currently being built in this area.

WE loved the cabin so much ! Everyone had a private place to relax and nap. The game room kept as all busy when we weren't out and about. The view was second to none!

This cabin is beautiful and in a remote location. Anyone that is afraid of heights or gets motion sickness easily should avoid booking this cabin. The views are spectacular.

Very nice Cabin, Great view, Very nice furnishings, I have always been able to go somewhere one time and I knew my way in and out, but not here, a lot of turns, and blind intersections, very treacherous at night, other than that it was perfect !

I loved this cabin...perfect for my husband and I and a separate living area for my two adult sons. I hope to be back again in the future. It was just perfect

Gorgeous cabin, with lots of room and privacy for adult kids on a separate floor with everything you need! Loved this cabin so much, keeping it in my file for future stays.

Loved every minute of our stay! The drive up the mountain is intimidating (we refused to stay out past dusk as there are lots of winding roads with no light or guard rails in places) but once you get there, it’s worth it!

We loved staying at the bear and the trout! The location is perfect, we saw bears almost every day, and the layout was really nice for our family. My only suggestion would be to add a baby gate for the stairs, and a few more towels. We didn’t really have enough to go around, especially for those using the hot tub. We had a few issues with bugs (worms) and the air conditioner, but those were addressed immediately by the Stonybrook team. It was a great stay, and we will be back.

We loved the cabin! The view was amazing and the location was perfect! Loved the easy parking….flat and right off the road! The cabin is right on top of downtown Gatlinburg so it was nice not having to fight the traffic every time we went out. We would for sure stay here again!

This 4 bedroom, 4 private bathroom cabin was absolutely perfect for our group of 8. The view was stunning! The outdoor seating, fireplace and hot tub are the perfect addition to this beautiful home. We couldn't have asked for more, except for maybe a few more days!!! I really appreciated the personalized customer service and follow up once we arrived at the cabin. The staff was so helpful and friendly. I will definitely be looking here first the next time we come to Tennessee.

The cabin was beautiful and spacious. Large bedrooms and bathrooms for every guest. Great entertainment option downstairs and the TVs had content to watch. The views were amazing and the hot tub was a nice amenity. The only thing I would be aware of is, when driving in the snowy conditions the roads up to the cabin may be nervy for some, especially at night. Other than that, the parking is very convenient and it is close to downtown Gatlinburg, very close to Ober Mountain, and not far from Pigeon Forge. Highly recommend it for large groups that want a comfortable space and convenience for activities in town.

We loved staying at the Bear & Trout. The view was amazing! The house was cozy and still large enough to accommodate, comfortably, our extended family. The pool table and arcade game provided hours of entertainment. 100% recommend!
Adrienne

The view during the morning, afternoon and evening was breathtaking! The cabin was beautiful and clean. The wrap around porch with the hot tub was amazing to sit on/in at night and just relax. It had it all. But more than anything, it was a home away from home.

We loved our time at the cabin. Beautiful view and the neighborhood is peaceful. The layout of the cabin was perfect for our group. We had 2 people with disabilities that limit their mobility and the 2 king rooms on the main floor were perfect and easy to access.

The view from the cabin was glorious! The cabin itself could not have been better!! We had four families and it worked perfectly. All king beds, 4 bathrooms and a well equipped kitchen. My grandkids loved the pool table and arcade game. We would highly recommend this cabin. And the property manager was helpful and prompt.

The perfect cabin for a long weekend with family. The view was absolutely stunning. The cabin was very clean. We loved that there weren’t any steps to get into the cabin, only going to the basement obviously. Plenty of cleaning supplies ( dish soap, dishwasher pods,etc.). We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!

Cabin was just as described and maybe even better! Super clean and the views were amazing! The GPS was definitely needed as lots of twists and turns, and different ways of getting in - but well worth the drive!

Awesome Cabin. If you are looking for unlimited mountain views, this is your cabin. Check in was seamless. Had a couple minor issues and Stony Brook was fast to respond. Easy 10 min scenic drive to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Only thing kissing is some family board games and some playing cards, but other than that, the cabin is perfect.

Awesome cabin. Perfect for a family getaway. Comfortable king beds in every room with a bathroom attached. The most amazing view of the double decks. House was easy for my handicap grandmother to get it. We also saw a few bears a few days! Will definitely highly recommend.

Very clean, good location between PF and GB. However, the cabin is located on a mountain and you have to travel in a very steep, curvy road. We wouldn’t try to make it there in the snow or ice, but it was easy to get to for our fall break trip. Our parents stayed with us too, so we appreciated the 4 king suites, each with its own bathroom, and two of them were on the main level, which was perfect for our parents who can’t/shouldn’t climb too many stairs. Stony Brook was very reachable for any questions we had and everyone was super nice!

Super nice cabin with a great view. Stony Brook’s staff were really nice to talk to. Comfortable mattresses, everyone slept well. Our parents joined us on this trip and a couple of them can’t/ shouldn’t climb stairs, so we really appreciated the main entrance and master suites on the main level. With king rooms and bathrooms on the lower level, we had plenty of room for 9 adults and a toddler. Just need a few more remotes for the TVs, but that didn’t have a negative impact on our stay. Roads to get there are definitely mountain roads, so I wouldn’t want to try to get to the cabin w snow or ice on the roads, but it was fine for our fall break trip. Beautiful area and cabin, and good memories made! Thank you, Stony Brook, we would rent again!

The cabin was fantastic. Our group had a great time. A couple of notes for you The outdoor fireplace on the upstairs deck did not work. The door to the room downstairs furthest from the stairs would not latch. Neither item impacted our stay at all. Wonderful place

Our cabin was perfect. We had an issue with the outdoor fireplace, which of course we did not know until evening. I called the after hours number to report. It was a little confusing as to who I should have reported this to. The next day I did receive a return call and that evening we were able to enjoy the outdoor fireplace. Pilot light issue. This was the best evening, just relaxing by the fire place. Also, we were all so excited over the number of towels, paper towels and toliet tissue given for our stay. It was great to not have to worry about a store run for these items. OH, and coffee to get us started was so much appreciated.

We found his cabin an excellent place to stay with one of the premier views of the mountains. Amenities provided were more than adequate and the calls to check if everything was ok were much appreciated. Look forward to next year.

Our family loved the cabin. Having a bathroom for each bedroom was perfect. We enjoyed the pool table, hot tub and outdoor fireplace on the deck. Having breakfast on the deck with a lovely view was wonderful!

We were all very happy (eight adults and one teenager) with the cabin. The game room provided hours of entertainment. The cabin was also big enough to allow everyone ample space. Any calls to rental staff were answered with genuine hospitality.

Definitely recommend this property. The views are completely unobstructed and spectacular. We did have a bear visit the first couple days of out trip, don't worry he was below the decks. The house was exactly what we needed with our party of 11. The downstairs was perfect for the teenager/pre-teen group and the upstairs guests with the baby were unaffected by the noise. The pool is a mile from the house and very nice. This welcome center is down the mountain so the location is great for picking up the trolley. This property is 5* for sure.

Wonderful stay & cabin.. very impressed!! The views were spectacular! Lots of room for 10 people..very spacious! We had a bear open our Tahoe door & eat the snacks we accidentally left in car..it was quite exciting! No damage to interior just dirt & crumbs.. next day we spot our bear on the road back to our cabin!! Kids loved the experience… GREAT TIME!! We will talk about our bear for many years!

Cabin was prepared for our arrival and check-in easy offering door code for entry. The Bear and Trout was very comfortable. 8 adults easily enjoyed the thoughtful accommodations. The views from the decks were wonderful to enjoy at different times of the day. A perfect place to enjoy friends and meals.

Our family group of 10 had a very pleasant and memorable time at Bear and Trout. The cabin is very well maintained and cleaned. Great mealtime space and kitchen essentials The morning sunrises were awesome slows with the daily Mountain View’s. One evening we had a unforgettable visit by a bear and her 3 cubs. A great stay and will be back. Thank you Stony Brook

This was a much needed getaway! The cabin was beautiful, well kept, clean and THE VIEW!! The view was to die for. I would definitely stay at the Bear and Trout again. This cabin would have been well deserving of a 5 star review but the Wifi signal was a bit weak and 2 of the televisions were not working.

Very nicely equipped and decorated cabin, spacious, clean, great decks with fantastic views, had a wonderful time watching the wildlife and the stars! The drive/parking Is right off the road so no need to worry about windy driveway! Will definitely choose this cabin again when we come back to the Smokey Mountains!

We enjoyed our stay at Bear and Trout Cabin. The cabin was very well equipped, clean, great decorating and very comfortable beds. It was spacious and uncluttered. The parking was right in front of the house which was nice because you didn't have to navigate any long windy driveways. Decks and Hot Tub allowed us to view all the nature during the day and stars at night!

The back deck is where you'll want to spend most of your time. The place was clean, spacious and did not want for anything. We saw bears on the front porch then walking down our street the morning we were leaving. Awesome animals so read up about how to act around them. The fire history on that ridge is fascinating, humbling and saddening. Some cabin owners haven't rebuilt so you get to see what's left and the engineering involved. The roads to get up and down can be scary and or intimidating to some but the drives are well worth it. Again, the views are gorgeous and so is the cabin and we will be going back for sure!! Thank you awesome management team!!

The first words out of ours mouths when we walked in was WOW! This place is gorgeous! From the decorations to the views. We never wanted to leave! The beds were very comfortable. Plenty of towels for everyone. The kitchen had all the dishes we needed, including a crock pot, which we used everyday! There were plenty of dishes for our group of 8. We enjoyed the deck furniture the most. We sat out every night with a glass of wine and enjoyed the view. Even during a rain shower we stayed dry. The kids enjoyed the lower level. They liked having a small fridge for their drinks. The parking is flat right in front of the cabin, no steep driveway. If you’re prone to motion sickness I’d advice taking something for the drive up and down! It’s a long windy road but definitely worth it for the views! The neighborhood pool was great too! We have no complaints about this property! It’s amazing how a short 10 minute drive you’re away from the noise of the city. It’s so peaceful. We saw a bear almost every day along side the road somewhere. Even saw one climb a tree from our deck! Book this cabin now! You won’t regret it!
