About this cabin rental
Welcome to Running Bears Den, your home away from home. Located in the prestigious community of Chalet Village, Running Bears Den is a 3328 sq ft, 3 level cabin that sleeps up to 10 people comfortably.
It has everything that you would need for a relaxing and memorable vacation. Grab a beverage and relax on one of the double decks while listening to the babbling creek running through the front yard. The upper deck offers a secluded hot tub to soak in to ease tensions and to reach a whole new level of relaxation.
Hang your coat or take off your shoes in the large mudroom. The open concept allows for lots of natural light and is ideal for large family gatherings. The main floor includes a bedroom with a king size bed and a massaging chair for your tired or aching muscles. The oversized main floor bathroom features 2 large vanities with a jacuzzi tub and separate stand up shower. The kitchen is fully equipped and provides all the amenities needed for a home-cooked meal or take out. Cozy up to the unique creek-stone fireplace in the winter while your family watches tv or plays games on the nearby dining room table that seats ten. The sofa in the family room conveniently pulls out to a queen size sleeper.
Overlooking the main living area, is a loft that features a large flat-screened tv with blue-ray player and lots of movies, books, and games for adults as well as kids. The spacious master bedroom on this level has a king-size bed to stretch out on while sleeping. The attached master bathroom includes a large jacuzzi tub to soak all your troubles away.
The basement can be a hang out for families or an area for the guys to watch sports or compete against each other while shooting pool, playing foosball, or playing one of the thousands of games on the arcade system. A second gas fireplace is available to warm up to on chilly nights. A spacious kitchenette provides a refrigerator and microwave for munching on snacks or to keep beverages cold. No need to walk upstairs when you are tired because there is a futon in the gaming area and just around the corner is another large bedroom with a king-size bed. The large bathroom on this level has a tub/shower combo. Also available is a laundry room with a full-sized washing machine, dryer, iron and board. A pack and play is available in this area if needed as well for the little ones.
If this isn’t enough, there are 3 community pools (free admission) and lounge chairs to relax in around the pool. Some of the facilities offer a workout room and tennis courts.

Great family friendly home

Everything was wonderful. Close to gatlinburg and the park. Quiet location. Plenty of room for our family if 6. We love the pool table and basement entertainment area. There are a couple little stores near by for pizza and if you forgot anything. Host was very responsive with any questions we had. Highly recommend.

Cabin was beautiful and nestled amoungst the trees upon the mountainside. The cabin is centrally located to Ober and Downtown Gatlinburg. The rooms were comfortable as well as spacious and the large kitchen was used for all of our meals for 4 and half days. The laundrey room was a plus. The addition to 3 local pools was nice for the kids. We had read where a few past renters had seen bears and was hoping to see at least one. We actually saw 8 on the property. We made sure to keep our vehicle doors locked and free from food ,as we had a bear attempt entry into my vehicle twice. One time we actually saw it and the second must have been through the night. Lock ypur doors and that of the cabin doors...The adults and kids really liked the game room pool table and arcade. This will be#1 on our list for any future vacations to Gatlinburg. Highly recommend. There was only one small CON to the property .Upon arriving to the beautiful cabin we did have a bit of a tight squeeze with parking with one 1 minivan, 1 Ford Escape & 1 Buick Enclave. Just note the last vehicle to drive up the uphill drive way, will be the first one to back out of the downhill drive. Note we were here from the 29th of June to July 5th. So it is clear that we left and returned back to the cabin multiple times without incident, we just planned who was parking first in case they had plans . Fabulous Family Memories Made in a Beautiful Cabin with a Gracious Host!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Dec 2025
My family booked this cabin for a 4-day Thanksgiving stay. Three of the six guests had never been to Gatlinburg, and after comparing several options, we chose this cabin because of its size and location. The host did offer a 200 discount, and the cabin itself is beautiful and very spacious. There is not much of a view other than looking down at surrounding properties. Also, future guests should note that an AWD vehicle is needed to get up the driveway. On Saturday we took an Uber to town. When leaving, my nephew accidentally left the bottom-floor door ajar. That was our mistake. When we returned around 10:30 PM, we found the truck door open (no food inside) and the cabin door was open. Naturally, we were concerned. It took four attempts to reach the host, and when we finally did, she said she thought a bear opened the truck door and stuck its head inside the cabin. For our own peace of mind we requested a picture or video from the security cameras. She questioned why we needed it. She sent us video of my nephew leaving the cabin door ajar, but refused to send any proof of the bear. Throughout this situation, the host was not helpful in giving us any peace of mind about whether this was wildlife or a possible attempted robbery. With food on all three floors and nothing disturbed inside, and considering the truck was parked on an incline, we are still unsure what actually occurred.The cabin itself is nice, but our experience dealing with the host during a concerning situation.
