Gatlinburg Family Getaway! 5 Min to PKWY | Hot Tub

Black Bear Retreat — Gatlinburg, TN

The best of the Smokies starts right outside your door. Tucked just five minutes from downtown Gatlinburg and the entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Black Bear Retreat puts you in the perfect spot to explore everything the mountains have to offer — without sacrificing comfort when you come home.

Spacious enough for up to 8 guests, this charming chalet features three well-appointed bedrooms — a king, a queen, and a room with two queens — giving everyone plenty of room to spread out and recharge. With 2.5 bathrooms and a thoughtful layout, mornings are smooth even with a full house.

After a day on the trails or browsing the shops on the Parkway, unwind in the private hot tub or kick back on the spacious deck and soak in that fresh mountain air. When the season's right, the resort's three community pools are just steps away for a family splash down the kids won't stop talking about.

Whether your trip is packed with adventure or you're simply looking to slow down and breathe, Black Bear Retreat delivers the ideal mix of cozy comfort and unbeatable location. Downtown Gatlinburg, the national park, hiking trails, and local dining are all within minutes — making every day here an easy yes.
