"Little Fishing Bear" A fun, fishing bear welcomes you to this little cabin right on Douglas Lake. LFB is a one bedroom, one bath cabin that is best suited for lake-loving couples or small families who want a relaxing place to fish, boat, or swim. Great for those who want to go to the less visited areas of the Smoky Mountains, but close enough to all the action of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Peaceful, relaxing scenery! No steep mountainous roads! Dollywood -13 miles Gatlinburg -18 miles The main living area is located on the second floor of the house over the garage (for owner’s use only) and is accessed by an entry door facing the lake. It is a cozy, one room open area with smart TV, Roku, and DVR, comfortable seating, and a porch facing the lake with gorgeous panoramic views of the lake. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need, except a dishwasher, and there is also free internet access and a Keurig. The bedroom is the other main room of the cabin and it features both full-sized and queen-sized beds. The bathroom has a 4’ shower. Starter soaps and paper products are provided. In addition, the cabin is pet-free in order to accommodate anyone with allergies. Outside, we advise you to use the paved drive to access steps to the lake. (There is also a stone path to the lake's edge.) The shared dock has plenty of room for any watercraft you may want to bring or rent. You are invited to use a fire pit and gazebo at the neighboring house ( Little Fishing Bear’s owners live here) for picnics, making s’mores, watching sunsets, or just hanging out. Please note that we have rare occasional visits by foxes and bears. Outdoor security cameras are focused on driveways and stairs to the lake and firepit. (e.g. that is how we see a bear...maybe twice a year.) Since we live on the same property, if needed we can help you with just about anything. Your privacy is respected, and we sincerely want you to use and enjoy our beautiful space! This cabin is located near Marker D on Muddy Creek and there is a seasonal community boat ramp for your use to launch a boat. However, you need to be able to back down a long narrow drive. Please be aware That Douglas Lake is a TVA lake which means lake levels are down in the spring and fall. The cove just in front of Little Fishing Bear goes dry then, but there is always a spectacular water view. We are about 25 minutes to Dollywood and you can be inside the Smokies in about 50 minutes. We can offer suggestions of restaurants and places to see that you may not have thought of otherwise. This cabin is located near Marker D on Muddy Creek and there is a community boat ramp (limited summer accessibility) for your use. Douglas Lake levels fluctuate greatly from winter to summer. We have Wifi but cannot guarantee speed and reliability. (Due to our rural location and being set low in a hollow beside a hill, we do not always get a consistent signal.) While here be sure to visit Bush Beans Museum and Café or Forbidden Caverns. We are 20 minutes to Dollywood and Pigeon Forge, and you can be inside the Great Smoky Mountains in about 45 minutes.
