Big Bear Lodge | Smoky Mountain Views, Hot Tub, Theater & Game Room

Welcome to Big Bear Lodge by AvantStay!

Perched high in the rolling hills of Sevierville and overlooking the misty peaks of the Great Smoky Mountains, Big Bear Lodge is a classic log-style cabin designed for elevated group escapes. With expansive decks, a bubbling hot tub, and panoramic mountain views at every turn, this is your home base for serenity, celebration, or a bit of both.

Inside, the warmth of rustic timber blends with modern comforts across three spacious levels. The main floor’s open-concept layout invites everyone to gather in the fireside living room, cook in the gourmet kitchen with double ovens and stainless-steel appliances, or share meals around a grand dining table built for memory-making. A second prep kitchen adds extra convenience for large groups and special occasions.

Upstairs and down, entertainment flows freely—whether you're hosting movie night in the private theater with reclining leather seats, battling it out over billiards and foosball in the game room, or simply enjoying a board game marathon. Seven bedrooms—each thoughtfully appointed with plush bedding, ensuite bathrooms, and plenty of space to unwind—offer private havens for rest and relaxation, including a bunk-style room ideal for kids or teens.

Step outside and the magic continues. The top-level balcony is the crown jewel of the home, stretching the full width of the lodge and offering unobstructed Smoky Mountain views that feel endless. Soak in the private hot tub as the sun melts into the ridgelines, or settle into a rocking chair with your morning coffee and let the mist roll in. A full outdoor dining table invites you to share meals under open skies—no string lights needed when the stars do all the work. With its elevated vantage point and natural ambiance, this space feels both expansive and deeply peaceful, perfect for everything from group hangouts to quiet solo moments.

On the main and lower decks, you'll find even more room to unwind, with additional lounge seating, shaded spaces, and forest views that surround you in green.

Located just minutes from Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, and Gatlinburg, Big Bear Lodge keeps you close to iconic Appalachian adventures—without ever sacrificing peace and privacy. Whether you're hiking, horseback riding, tasting moonshine, or simply lounging with your favorite people, this is where unforgettable Smoky Mountain moments begin.

Located along the Tennessee/North Carolina border and home to the country's most visited national park, the Smokies provide over 800 miles of hiking trails, rivers, and a good chance at a black bear sighting. The ancient mountains invite you to connect with one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world and walk among century-old trees. Talk about a step back in time!
