| My wife and I recently spent our 40th anniversary at The Bear's Den and there was no better place we could have stayed. The hospitality of Bill and Jeannie was overwhelming. The directions Bill gave are so accurate, we actually found the place at midnight after leaving work and driving into the night from South Alabama. It was SO wonderful to be able to claim such a beautiful hide-a-away as our place to stay in the mountains. We spent most of out time seeing the sights in nearby Pigeon Forge and enjoying some of the fine restaurants and family variety shows. We even got to see Dolly Parton at Dollywood in her parade. We have great photos of that. Our four days there were all so awesome and special for both of us. The cabin is utterly fantastic with everything you could possibly need. Thanks again for sharing your home in the mountains with us. We sincerely hope to return there soon...maybe on our 41st! Jerry and Frances Barlow, Highland Home, Alabama |

| From the moment you arrive at the front door of the The Bear's Den your time away from "routine" begins to transform to "relaxation." Believe me, you will not be disappointed with the care and attention to comfort Bill & Jeannie have provided. The first words out of our mouths, OH WOW, the last words, PLEASE TELL ME IT ISN'T TIME TO LEAVE ALREADY." Seriously, the mountain top privacy is well worth coming to visit The Bear's Den. These folks are very easy to work with and professional. |

| The Bears Den was a awsome cabin to say the least! Rick and I stayed there from 7-29-06 until 8-2-06 for our 11th wedding anniversary we did not want to leave. Bill and Jeannie go the extra step to make sure you have anything you need communication with them was always so easy just a phone call away. We can't say enough about the cabin it was very clean, very stocked, and the most romantic little place we have ever been to. Much more than we could have imagined, and if you love smooth jazz bill has some wonderful cd's at the cabin we hardly turned on the T.V I have stayed in about 10 cabins in the mountains but we both agree this little cabin is the best yet and we plan on making it our anniversary getaway each year. Thanks again Bill and Jeannie for making our anniversary this year so very special |

We really enjoyed our stay at the Beaushaw's Bear's Den cabin. It was exactly as advertised; very comfortable, nicely maintained and furnished much better than some of our other rentals. It is worth noting that you couldn't ask for nicer owner's than the Beaushaws. They were great on communications, and made sure the accommodations were special to our needs. Thank you so much for your kindness and concern. We wish you both the best for the future, and we thank you for sharing your cabin.

| What a wonderful and relaxing vacation we had. Who would have known that searching for a place on the Internet would turn up such a delightful find. Bill and Jeannie are gracious hosts and are very concerned that their guests find everything to their liking. The cabin was very peaceful and restful and it made it very hard to leave. It is decorated beautifully and you feel at home from the moment you step in the front door. We hope very much to make a return visit next year. Thank you again Bill and Jeannie for allowing us to stay at your beautiful cabin and for treating us like friends instead of just rentors. |

| The Bears Den was a wonderful way for us to spend our first anniversary Bill and Jeannie's cabin is beautiful with their personal touch. We loved every minute we were there. You wake up to the peacefulness of the mountains and your only 10 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg. We can't wait to go back. Bill and Jeannie, we thank you again. |

| The Bears Den is a great place to be if you just want to set back and relax away from everything! We stayed there 4-20-05 thru 4-24-05.We had a great time! the cabin is beautiful,clean and real cozy! Even though we have never met the owners, We feel like we have known them forever.They are real easy to talk to.I have never stayed anywhere else that I felt so at home. No one else has ever called to see if we made it or if we needed anything, but here the owners did! We will return here again! If your looking for a great place to stay this is it!! |

We really enjoyed your place and you gave us such a great deal on it. We are telling all our friends about it and we hope to visit it again in the future.

| My husband and I stayed at the "Bear's Den" February 28 - March 5, 2005. We cannot thank Bill & his wife Jeannie enough for their wonderful hospitality! The cabin was perfect for us & had everything that we needed. We were minutes away from all major attractions & at the end of the day, it was so nice to go "home" & relax in the jacuzzi. Being from Louisiana, it was a treat to see it snow on Tuesday! And even though it is the off-season, we still had plenty to do. We will be sure to recommend the "Bear's Den" to anyone planning a trip to the Gatlinburg area. Thanks again for a wonderful vacation! |

Bill & Jeannie,
We truly enjoyed using your home it was prefect in every way! We cooked our breakfast at the house some mornings and cooked pizza one night; just to stay in and relax. The hot tub was very enjoyable at the end of each evening for all of us. I also enjoyed sitting on the screen porch just watching the birds and squirrels. Our location was great too it wasn't too far out like some cabins. We will return no doubt! Thanks so much for everything.

Hi Bill & Jeannie Kaye,
We throughly enjoyed our 9 night
stay at your cabin. Everything was immaculate & very welcoming. We found your cabin to be nicely appointed & very comfortable. It was great having
a king size bed. Your screened porch is wonderful as well as the hot tub!! We hope to be able to come back again. Thanks for sharing your cabin with us.
