Secluded Luxury Meets Mountain Serenity at Anxybear Cabin
Where History Meets the Horizon: A Stay at Anxy Bear in Gatlinburg
There is a specific kind of quiet you can only find inside walls that have stood for over two hundred years.
In a world of "cookie-cutter" vacation rentals and plastic mountain decor, Anxy Bear stands as a rare outlier. Rebuilt from authentic 1800s logs, this cabin isn't just a place to sleep; it’s a piece of Smoky Mountain history restored for the modern traveler. Whether you’re driving down from Ohio or flying in for a romantic retreat, here is why Anxy Bear is the soul of Gatlinburg.
The Magic of the 1800s, Refined
Walking into Anxy Bear feels like stepping back in time—if the pioneers had high-speed Wi-Fi and premium linens. The hand-hewn logs tell a story of craftsmanship that you simply can't find in modern construction.
The main living area is anchored by soaring ceilings and large windows that invite the "Blue Hour" glow inside. As the sun dips below the Gatlinburg ridgeline, the cabin transforms. The wood tones deepen, and the space becomes the ultimate "cozy" sanctuary.
Space for the Whole Family (or Just the Two of You)
Finding a cabin that balances historic charm with enough "elbow room" is a challenge, but Anxy Bear hits the sweet spot.
Two King Suites: Each of the two bedrooms is a private retreat with its own bathroom, making it perfect for two couples traveling together or a family of six.
Three Full Baths: No morning traffic jams here. With three bathrooms, everyone has the space to get ready for a day in the National Park at their own pace.
History in the Walls, High-Tech in the Game Room
While the upstairs is all about rustic relaxation, the lower level is built for entertainment. We’ve traded the spinning wheels of the 1800s for a fully-loaded game room.
The Arcade: Relive the classics with the PACMAN multi-game cocktail table.
The Match: Challenge your group to a round of pool.
The "Spa-Like" Outdoor Escape
The true magic of the Smokies happens outside. Anxy Bear features an expansive deck designed for "slow living." Imagine starting your morning on the porch swing with a hot cup of coffee, watching the mist rise off the mountains. After a long day of hiking the Alum Cave Trail or exploring the Gatlinburg Parkway, sink into the hot tub. Under the canopy of the Tennessee stars, the rest of the world feels miles away.
Planning Your Trip: The Midwest Connection
For our guests driving in from the Midwest, Anxy Bear offers the perfect "home base" that feels secluded but remains incredibly accessible.
Pro Tip: Stop at the local grocery on your way in, fire up the grill on the deck, and enjoy a private sunset dinner. There’s no better way to kick off a vacation than skipping the restaurant lines and enjoying the view from your own private ridge.
Ready to Step Into History?
Anxy Bear is more than a rental; it’s an experience. Because of its unique history and prime location, dates tend to fill up fast—especially during the peak fall foliage and summer break seasons.
Golden hour looks good on us. ☀️ Sink into the sofa and let the mountain light do the rest. Whether it’s coffee by the fire or a movie night in, the Great Room is the heart of Anxybear.

Starlit soaks and mountain dreams. ✨ After a day of exploring downtown Gatlinburg, there’s nothing better than the steamy jets of our 5-person hot tub. This is the definition of 'mountain therapy.
Game on! 🕹️ From high scores on the PAC-MAN arcade to a competitive round of pool, our lower-level game room is where the fun happens. Perfect for rainy days or late-night family tournaments.
Dreaming in the treetops. ☁️ Our King suites are designed as private retreats, featuring warm wood accents and windows that frame the forest. It’s the kind of quiet you can only find at the top of a mountain.
Breakfast with a side of Smokies. ☕️ Our modern kitchen and dining area are perfectly set up for slow mornings before a day of hiking—or just a second cup of coffee while watching the mist rise.
