Cabin vacation rentals in Johnson County

We had a fantastic stay! The cabin had everything we needed. It was very peaceful and private. It made our ski weekend a great trip. Definitely will stay here again!

Our stay at this cabin was absolutely wonderful! The cabin was clean, comfortable, and beautifully designed, making it the perfect getaway. The views outside were stunning, offering a peaceful and private setting to relax and unwind. Everything was exactly as described, with all the listed amenities available and well-maintained. The location was ideal—secluded enough for privacy yet within a 30-45-minute drive to a variety of activities, including snowboarding, skiing, hiking, dining, and local attractions. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a serene and comfortable retreat!

Cabin is beautiful! We had the pleasure of staying during a very snowy cold blast! The mountain and road were covered in snow, I’d highly recommend snow chains if staying in winter months, I was in a 4wd SUV with off road tires and honestly felt like we were pushing the limits. But what a great experience, would love to stay at the dancing bears cabin again and enjoy the cities and other mountains around!

We had a great weekend stay! Just what we wanted. We enjoyed all the amenities - especially the hot tub, grill, and gas fire pit after sunset on the deck. Would love to stay here again in the future. Our FWD RAV4 was totally fine for the drive during dry weather, but I would heed the vehicle/AWD recommendations if you’re coming with the chance of rougher weather (also the NC way up the mountain seemed more paved and less steep than the TN route).

We had a group get together in January and everything was great! The house listing is accurate, the views were beautiful and the trail up the mountain was really fun. The main living area was a great hangout spot. Only real wish was that the hot tub was closer up on the balcony or that the basement was finished so it's not a freezing trek from the hot tub. That's no reason not to rent this place, I will likely be back.

The place looks just like the pictures. The owners were very kind and accommodating. We loved our mini vacation. The kids enjoyed running in the backyard, making smores at the campfire, playing in the creek and relaxing in the hot tub. The views were beautiful and it was very peaceful. The little market is 7 minutes away and has great cheeseburgers and onion rings. For grocery type items I would recommend driving 10 minutes to the Dollar General. Thank you for a lovely stay, we’ll be back!

We loved staying here at the Bear Lodge! We had a short stay but made lasting memories. The pool table was a big hit and we may not have used the fire pit this go around but we definitely will the next time! thank you Carrie for opening your home ❤️

I’d definitely stay here again. Thank you so much for the hospitality Charity. We truly enjoyed ourselves!

When we arrived I was happy with the view on the back porch and how way it was to get into the home. I wasn’t expecting it to be as close to the road as it was but the main attraction in my mind (the back porch) you couldn’t tell. The wildlife was beautiful. My spouse and son caught quite a few rainbow trout for catch and release and they were happy about that. The hosts recommended many places for us food wise as we asked! The space was big and roomy enough that we (four of us) could all have the personal space we needed/wanted. I will definitely be returning in the future!

This cabin is a perfect get away, It is quiet & isolated, but close to the water & trails. It had every necessity & was very clean. If you enjoy the outdoors & want to relax in the mountain air, this is a great place to stay. We prefer to eat in & the kitchen & outdoor grill accommodated our needs perfectly. There is also an outdoor gas fire for ambiance & s'mores. What you see in the pictures is what you get. That is not always true. you can rest assured that what you are renting is what you see. Laura communicated very well & let us know that the internet was down & when it would be available again. Thank you for a stress free & extremely enjoyable stay, Laura!!

We really enjoyed our stay here! The house is pretty and very well maintained. Fit our group of 8 with no problems. Jeremy was an awesome host, very friendly and gave lots of helpful information. Would highly recommend this Airbnb!

We loved our weekend retreat to Cassidy’s cabin. Host was super responsive to any questions we had. We had a great time snow tubing nearby Hawksnest. We also enjoyed several local dining establishments. It was great to see the community was starting to heal from Hurricane Helene. We loved this location are already looking to go back again this fall/winter! Thank you Cassidy for opening up your home to us.

Loved staying at this quiet cabin! Cecil made everything so easy and his friendliness and southern hospitality was exceptional! Thank you for everything! Can’t wait to come back!

Pure magic! We did not know what to expect, delightfully impressive every time. If you are an adventurous soul, this is a great place for you

The house is such a gem!! It was perfect for our family of 9 for Thanksgiving. We could have never left the house our entire trip because the main level is so cozy and comfortable. There is plenty of games and puzzles to keep everyone entertained. My son loved the little nook area with the bean bag. There is plenty of space to spread out with the 3 different living room areas. If you want a good workout - go for a walk! The house is at a higher elevation in the neighborhood, so you will have to walk down and back up. We hiked to Laurel Falls - that was another workout! Be prepared to drive a little ways to the grocery store. We brought most of our groceries but needed a few things and the next town is 25-30 minutes away. (Of course, there is always Dollar General that is closer!) Not many places to eat out. The first night we went to the Trading Post and the food was good and the people were so friendly, we stopped back in on our way out to say goodbye!

The cabin is so pretty and comfy, and dog friendly is a plus! We loved our getaway.

Wonderful time even though we had some personal misfortunes. The place was beautiful!

We enjoyed the cabin and the peaceful ambience it allowed us to experience. Thank you!

Wonderful cabin getaway weekend- driving up to the cabin can be treacherous in winter so 4WD a must. Walking inside the door opens up to a warm cozy cabin, fireplace and sleeping arrangements were super accommodating. Beautiful views and awesome games basement. Make sure you check hot tub temp as soon as you arrive!

Awesome stay! The cabin is full of fun, you really don’t have to leave. Fully equipped kitchen and plenty of linens. I especially loved the fans upstairs since it is warmer. Do let it be noted that the drive up the mountain to the cabin is very scary and I would recommend arriving during the day. Other than that, a great stay.

Wonderful home. Very well kept. It was a very quite and peaceful stay.

Leon was wonderful! Great, quiet place, pleasant hottub, and big comfy beds with soft linens. We left a headlamp there and Leon went above and beyond to get it back to us. Should be arriving in the next couple days. Thanks for everything, Leon! I will stay here again if I'm ever in the area again. Love the ample taxidermy decor!

Absolutely loved the cabin. I would definitely rent again if available. We rented it twice back to back with my family. We enjoyed every moment we were there. Our firat trip was to snow ski and tube with my kids and the second trip was to celebrate my sisters 50th Birthday which she enjoyed. Thank you so much Kimberly for allowing our family to enjoy your home. You have allowed us to create the most beautiful memories!
