About this property

Welcome to Bear's Escape--a true Smoky Mountain log cabin where the forest is part of the décor. Set on 0.37 wooded acres in Sky Harbor, this 1-bedroom, 2-bath retreat offers approximately 1,352 square feet of open, inviting living space. Soaring cathedral ceilings, warm wood interiors, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows fill the cabin with natural light and frame the private wooded setting, while the open kitchen, dining, and living areas make it easy to gather around the stone fireplace. The spacious main-level suite adds its own fireplace and a two-person jetted tub, while two full bathrooms provide added convenience. Head up the spiral staircase to the oversized loft game room, complete with a pool table, foosball, air hockey, television, and plenty of flexible bonus space. Outside, two covered decks with rocking-chair seating and a private hot tub create an easy place to slow down, enjoy the trees, and take in the peaceful mountain surroundings. Although the setting feels tucked away, the location keeps the Smokies close. Bear's Escape is approximately 1.2 miles off the Parkway and conveniently positioned between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, offering easy access to Anakeesta, Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies, Dollywood, area dining and shopping, entertainment attractions, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Bear's Escape also brings a documented rental track record. Seller-provided records show $74,923 in gross rental income for 2025 and $64,561 in 2026 bookings as of July 31. Whether enjoyed as a personal mountain retreat or continued as an established short-term rental, this cabin combines privacy, personality, entertainment, location, and proven performance in one memorable Smokies property.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
