My 'framily' and I recently stayed at the Playful Bear and had a great experience. The property is well-suited for families and friends with children and teenagers, given its close proximity to numerous attractions.

Nice family vacation
We enjoyed our stay, the cabin was beautiful, clean, spacious, had everything we needed. The only drawback was the back deck with the hot tub, my son in law did not feel it was sturdy enough, therefore, the kids only used it once. The other drawback was the neighborhood, for us, it was not private enough. The houses are very close together. Loved the house and the office people we talked to were fantastic, always ready to answer a question. We would use the company again, maybe just not in that area.

Good location, Fit our large family
The property was as advertised, and shown in the pictures. We have a family of 10, plus 2 boyfriends, with most of us being adult sized. We utilized everything in this cabin, and i can say i was thankful for the variety of things people were able to involve themselves in. We cooked meals, played games, watched movies, etc. We were grateful for the washer and dryer, and ran about 2 loads a day every day, with the size of our crew. I would have liked to play the shuffleboard table more, as it was fun. However, we found that with the cover over it (this was very helpful to have considering the sand) the table made a good "trough" to spread out the laundry in. So it was covered much of the time. The movie area was my personal favorite, to close the curtain and have a little bit of seclusion from the activity was nice. The bedrooms were very nice, and overall, the cabin was very nicely finished and maintained. With that said, i do have a suggestion for the owner, and maybe a heads up to other users. The downstairs room with 6 bunks is good for accomodatting a larger crew, like ours. However, everyone has to go into the one downstairs bath to change...and shower...and use the restroom. This creates quite a bottleneck. With 2 beds and 2 baths upstairs, and 7 beds and 1 bath dowstairs, it doesn't work well. I would recommend a remodel downstairs to add a half bath if possible. This would be immensely helpful. Overall, we loved our stay though. Great cabin!

Convenient Location and Good Value
This is a good house. The interior is clean and great for kids. The game room / theatre in the basement is really cool and our kids loved it. The exterior decks were a bit dirty and in the summer time there is literally zero view of the mountains. Nonetheless, the house is in a great location and a very good value for the money.

Wonderful for a large family.
Our second stay in the Playful Bear was great for the whole family, just like the first. With boys aged 5 to 15, there was plenty of amenities to occupy the whole family. It is also very convenient to the Publix and attractions in Pigeon Forge.

Smaller Cabin with all necessities
This two bedroom cabin met our needs! Beds for 12 people and some arcade games with shuffleboard in basement for entertainment. As mentioned in ad bring your own TP and trash bags. The location of cabin is among new builds so construction sounds/traffic are present during working hours. You will go up and down steep roads. Carpenter Ants are present during the hotter months. The Fireside Chalets office hours are convenient for maintenance issue to be solved the next day.

Perfect space for a family
The cabin was just the right size for our group of 9. The kids had fun hanging downstairs with the movie room and shuffle board in the game room and enjoyed the bunk beds. It was a short drive to Dollywood everyday. We enjoyed our visit. There is currently a lot of nearby cabin construction going on in the area. It was not a big deal to us, but renters should be aware.

Christmas at the Playful Bear
Wonderful experience from start to finish. The Playful Bear was exactly as advertised and our family had a blast staying there for the Christmas holiday. We especially loved the home theater with movie popcorn maker, stadium seats, sound speakers and more. I can’t say enough about the memories we created and look forward to the next time.

Very nice cabin!
My fiancé and I took this vacation with our best friends and this cabin was VERY nice and decorated beautifully! I loved that the owners decorated for Christmas as well! We did have an issue with the Buck Hunter game in the basement not working, and the living room TV remote not working, so I called the office and they offered to send someone out to fix it immediately. We decided that it wasn’t a huge deal to us, so we opted out of having them come fix it, but I loved how ready to help they were! Everyone that I communicated with through the process all the way up until we left was very polite and professional. As far as the neighborhood goes, it was very well put together and nice, but there was construction for some new builds right by us that started very early, so expect the noise from that. My fiancé works in the construction industry so the noise didn’t bother us, but I do know that not everyone is used to those sounds. This cabin is close enough to Parkway (only about 3 minutes) but also far enough to give you the mountain feel. I would definitely recommend this cabin to friends and family, and we will be keeping it in mind for our next vacation!

Nice but needs some fine tuning
The cabin was nicely decorated and and close to all the attractions in Pigeon Forge. The game room downstairs is a great idea but had a few issues. 1. It was cold even with it bring 65 degrees outside. We had to stay bundled up when we were down there. The one unit for the whole cabin could not keep it comfortable. 2. The projector has a big dark spot it in which ruined the theater experience. 3. The shuffle board table didn’t work well. It needed wax and sand and there was none to be found.
