Gatlinburg Cabins, Pigeon Forge Pet Friendly Cabins

There’s nothing quite like a cozy cabin getaway in November. The air is crisp, the trees are bursting with color, and the Smoky Mountains make the perfect backdrop for a relaxing retreat. Whether you’re planning a romantic weekend or a quiet escape with friends, here’s how to make the most of your cozy cabin stay this fall.

1. Settle In and Get Cozy

Start by creating that classic cabin atmosphere. Light a fire in the fireplace, curl up with a blanket, and enjoy a good book or conversation by the glow. Make use of the cabin’s amenities, play a round of pool or board games, watch a movie on the big screen, or soak in the private hot tub while taking in the cool autumn air. With a fully equipped kitchen and outdoor grill, you can cook up a hearty dinner and enjoy your meal on the deck surrounded by the beauty of fall.

2. Explore the Great Outdoors

When you’re ready to venture outside, take advantage of the season’s stunning scenery. Drive along scenic routes like Cades Cove Loop Road or the Blue Ridge Parkway for breathtaking views of fall foliage. Go for a hike in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, just start early to avoid crowds. You can also visit a local pumpkin patch, explore Gatlinburg’s charming downtown, or stop by the Smoky Mountain Harvest Festival for crafts and seasonal fun.

3. Plan Ahead for a Perfect Trip

November is a busy month in the Smokies, so book your cabin and activities early. For a quieter experience, try visiting midweek instead of the weekend. And don’t forget to plan your meals and stock up on groceries before you arrive so you can focus on relaxing and enjoying your autumn escape.

When it comes to Gatlinburg Cabins or Pigeon Forge cabins, one of the best things to come out of humanity in the last generation or so is the increased social empathy and camaraderie we've had with our four (or sometimes more) legged friends. Today, you'll see people of nearly all generations treat their pets as if they really are fellow humans - they become brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, even niece, nephew and grandchildren for some families and for good reason!

Even some of our most difficult animal wards truly love us the same way we love them, and at Bear Camp Cabins, we want you to have the opportunity to include them on your family vacation to the Smokies. After all, they are family, aren't they?

Whereas most cabin companies in Sevier County only have a few accommodations available for pets, Bear Camp has more than 25 pet-friendly cabins. These cabins offer the same full amenities as our regular cabins and quality is not sacrificed to offer these special accommodations.

These cabins range from 1 bedroom honeymoon cabins to 5 bedroom cabins fit for larger families or reunions! They feature all the amenities you came to the Smokies to seek: hot tubs, jacuzzis, cable/satellite TV, convenience to attractions and views, views, views!

Our pet policy is as follows:

Max 40 Pounds and must be crated if left alone on property

"There is a non-refundable $75+tax per pet fee. Pets are only allowed in pet friendly cabins. This fee does not cover any damages to cabin or excess clean up in the form of carpet cleaning or spraying. If your pet sheds excessively, leaves behind fleas or damages to the property, you will be responsible for the cost of cleaning, spraying, repair or replacement.

It is recommended that pets left alone in the cabin be crated. If a pet is found in a non pet friendly cabin a fine of up to $1000 cleaning fee will be charged to guest and guest will be escorted from the property immediately. All money paid by guest will be forfeited."

If that works for you, your pet is more than welcome to have fun with us at Bear Camp Cabins! We look forward to serving you and your group to the fullest extent of our customer service, whether you're human or not!
