Cozy and charming cabin!!
We would like to thank you guys for such a great cabin getaway in the beautiful TN mountains! We were pretty pleased with the amenities. The cabin (Bear Cave) was extremely clean and nice, secluded, yet not far from the town at all. We definitely want to come back. Thanks. Appreciate ya.

What an amazing place!
Love every visit to your cabins. Always clean and ready to enjoy. The Over The Rainbow cabin is the ultimate for a group gathering or a large family. It's truly the best of the best.

Awesome week!!
Great few days of a much needed get away, family time and time to refresh and grow closer to God and family . Over the rainbow cabin made this very easy to accomplish. Accommodations were awesome and the view made it worth the trip. The management are very easy to work with and will definitely come back. God Bless .. Jeff

Great Vacation
We had a great time. We enjoyed Townsend in the (off) season. Sitting in front of the fireplace at night was great. We were able to park right in front of our favorite stores in Pigeon Forge.

Black Bear Cave
My husband and I stayed in Black Bear Cave at Black Bear Hollow Cabins for the week of our 32nd wedding anniversary. It was such a beautiful setting and the cabin was wonderful. I loved the huge king sized bed!! It was so comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub, and the Jacuzzi tub and the gas fireplace was lovely. Everything we needed for a quiet and peaceful week was there!! We will definitely stay there again!!

Lovely Stay In the Smoky Mountains
Hi There, I stayed in one of your cabins with a friend for New Years. The stay was very satisfactory. The house was pleasant, clean, and rose to every expectation I had. I'm really satisfied with the help you provided in booking this cabin for me on very short notice. I didn't think I would be able to find a place in the location I wanted. The only really very small complaint I have is that the master bedroom/bathroom smelled slightly of cigarettes when we arrived. I know you explicitly said no smoking at all, so I just wanted to let you know. Other than that, the cabin was great! I had a lot of fun building fires and cooking meals there. Honestly, I wish I could have stayed there for weeks. Thank you, Mark.

Awesome Cabin
My girlfriend and I came across this cabin with last minute plans for New Years. It could not have worked out better we absolutely loved it! We plan on coming back this summer and spending more time here. It comes completely equipped, clean and picturesque.

Next year
We visited orange beach with our life long friends who are Ohio State grads. We being Alabama fans, (4 children graduated there) watched the semi final college football game together. If not for the excellent surroundings and wonderful beds, my wife and I would have not slept Jan 1st night. we commented more than once to each other how great the bed was. We even stripped the sheets to see who made it! All in all a great time but they sang the fight song every time OSU scored! Next time we go with just those that are in our corner. The jinx lives on!

We had a wonderful time with all of our family in the cabins. The cabins were beautiful, clean, and beautifully decorated. I especially loved the Christmas decorations and tree. Our stay went to quickly and we look forward to returning in the future.

Our family created precious memories this Christmas!
We had a wonderful time with our two sons, their wives and our four grandchildren! We've never had a destination Christmas with all of them and we could not have picked a better location or cabin! We loved the secluded nature of this cabin. The view was spectacular and we loved waking up to that mountain view each morning. We all had plenty of room to spread out play and the kids loved the pool table. We enjoyed exploring the outdoors around the cabin and its proximity to all the activities in Gatlinburg.

Great Stay!
We had a lovely time at the Bear Ridge Cabin. We needed a little time away as a family and this was the perfect place for us. Cozy, Clean & Comfortable. Would love to come back again. I have already recommended to different family members who are considering it in the future.

Another Great Christmas in Black Bear Hollow!
We had such fun staying in the Bear Cave Cabin in Black Bear Hollow last Christmas that we decided to reserve again for this year and invite more famliy along. It did not disappoint. In fact, they had since made some upgrades to the furniture and put in new gas logs for the fireplace. We also enjoyed the firepit outside on one of our milder nights along with the hottub. This year since we stayed a couple of days longer, we were able to check out the general stores and even a Christmas Eve candlelight service just down the road. We love staying in the area, and especially Black Bear Hollow for our holiday. Thanks again!

A must stay
I have no idea where to begin, but here it goes. My wife and I live 45 min from Townsend, so when we just need a great get away we come to Townsend. We have stayed at various cabins through out Townsend, that is until now. Since we have stayed at Black Bear Hollow cabins we will stay no where else. The cabins are absolutely fabulous and the hospitality is incredible. We stayed there last winter and got trapped during a snow storm which was actually great!! But the owners where there right away clearing snow and making our way clear. We like it so much there that we actually book our get aways around there availability because my wife and I will stay no where else. We enjoy it so much that we booked our Daughters Honeymoon for them them there. The owners made sure they had the perfect cabin. I strongly advise you if you are looking for a great place to stay this is it. Thank you Black Bear Hollow!!!!!! I look forward to all of our future visits!!!

Great Getaway
Precious Memories cabin was a wonderful place to stay. The location was beautiful and peaceful. The cabin had plenty of room for our family of five. It was very clean and comfortable. The location to Smokey Mountain National Park, the hikes we wanted to do, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg was ideal for us. This location gives you a quiet mountain getaway within a reasonable distance of the activities in the area. The owners of this home are wonderful to work with. We would highly recommend Precious Memories for your mountain getaway.

Great Experience
We had a great time at the Black Bear Cave Cabin. Nice and secluded. Nicely furnished and it had everything we needed except for the food. And the price was great too. We drove around and looked at some of the other Black Bear Hollow Cabins while we were there and they all looked great. We will definitely be staying there again when we go back to the Smokies. I sure wish I had that 1960 Thunderbird that was sitting under the shed.

Beautiful Stay in the Smokies
I would like to say this was a great choice staying with Black Bear Cabins. Everything was as it should be. The wife and I had a great time hanging out on our mini getaway. We only left the cabin once to visit Cades Cove for about 4 hours. I would recommend them to anyone!

Black bear mountain
I stayed at Black Bear Mountain with my mother, uncle, two sisters and their husbands and my two nephews. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep comfortably and the cabin was clean and reasonably priced. We had a wonderful time! It was in a quieter area than Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg and the drive to either town wasn't bad. We will definitely stay again next time we come to the Smokies!

Great Place to Stay!!!
Black Bear Falls is a gorgeous cabin! The house is well decorated and the fireplace was wonderful. We cooked our meals almost every night in the beautiful, well-stocked kitchen and enjoyed game after game of pool, air hockey, and fooseball in the upstairs loft and downstairs game room. It was great that the linens were provided (less packing for us) and the beds were very comfortable. The owners were very easy to work with, even when we had some surprise guests come and stay with us for one night. Since it was winter time and the chance of snow was very likely, we were concerned with snow; however, there was no need because the house is easily accessible with a paved driveway and only a few hundred feet off of the main road. The cabin is only a little drive away from downtown Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and also Cades Cove (where we seen some HUGE bucks and a black bear) which was fantastic because we went to several attractions and shopping there. Black bear falls is a perfect place to stay for anyone going on a family vacation to the Great Smoky Mountains. Might I also add that the picnic area with the fire pit and the cave were also really cool features to this property.

Perfect Family Getaway
Precious Memories is exactly what you imagine when you think of a secluded, luxurious, log cabin in the Smokies. 4 adults and two teens had a perfect 3 day weekend. Cabin is in Gated property with large lots and no other homes in the community visible. It is meticulously maintained, everything in great condition. Balconies offer amazing views. Birds and wildlife can viewed from the porch. Location is central to everything we wanted to do: hike in the Smokies, drive cades cove, Rocky Mountain Blue Grass in Walland, and shop in PF and Gatlinburg. Hosts are most gracious and accommodating with our schedule and requests.

Vacation of a Lifetime
My girlfriend and I drove up from Florida for a weekend getaway. We stayed in the Black Bear Creek cabin and were extremely impressed with every aspect of this cabin. All of the amenities were great, from the fireplace to the hot tub. The breathtaking mountainous views, amazing local restaurants, and the quietness of the fresh mountain air is the perfect recipe for a relaxing weekend. The cabin is perfectly located about 15 minutes from Pigeon Forge, far enough to avoid the traffic but close enough to not miss out on anything. I highly recommend Black Bear Hallow cabins for anyone that's looking for a nice getaway or family vacation,you wont be disappointed.

Memorable family vacation!
Our second family vacation at Over the Rainbow in early November was wonderful! We enjoyed our days in Townsend, Cades Cove, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge or just resting in the cabin. Most evenings were spent all joining together for a home cooked dinner, playing games and enjoying your beautiful home. The views from the cabin are simply gorgeous. This year, our son and his girlfriend got engaged while enjoying a picnic in Cades Cove. When they returned to the cabin later that afternoon, all 12 of us celebrated their engagement with a toast and a great dinner. That same night, we were fortunate enough to see a bear from the deck and watched him for several minutes wandering around below. We all hope to return next year!

Feeling Rested!
We really enjoyed our stay at Bear Falls Cabin. We wanted to use our vacation as an opportunity to relax and this cabin helped us to do just that. I loved sitting on the porch and listening to the rain, soaking in the awesome jacuzzi, and curling up in front of the fireplace. We will definitely be back!

Black Bear Hollow is a wonderful place to stay. The cabins are always clean and well maintained with comfortable furnishings. Great location too: peaceful away- from - it-all feel yet just minutes away from restaurants, shops and, of course, the natural beauty of the park.

cozy cabin for two
A very cozy cabin for two that has everything you need for a weekend getaway, or a weeks vacation. Decorated in a warm and inviting atmosphere that you'll want to spends a lot of time at. Secluded from the busyness of life, but close enough to enjoy all the attractions in the area. We'll definitely be back!

Black Bear Falls made our vacation!!!
Our family vacationed in the Pigeon Forge area last week. This was our fourth time to visit the area, but our first time to stay in a cabin. We are a family of six with teenagers and a couple younger children. This cabin was wonderful!!! The kids loved the hot tub and the game tables. We ate our meals each night at the cabin, and took advantage of the wonderful kitchen and grill. Almost every night my husband thanked me for picking this cabin. I also was happy to take clean laundry home. ( a washer and dryer are in the basement.) I can't say enough about this cabin. We have told all of our friends and family. My only concern is that the word will get out about how great it is, and we won't be able to book it for next year. I give this cabin 5+ stars.
