Public Remarks: Bear's Den is a spacious mountain retreat perfectly designed for large groups, reunions, and special events, renting for $399-$449 per night. Sleeping up to 18 guests, this 6-bedroom lodge features 4 king beds, 5 queen beds, and 4½ baths, providing plenty of room for comfort and privacy. Perched on a hillside overlooking beautiful historic downtown Tellico Plains, Bear's Den offers sweeping views and a peaceful, relaxed setting while keeping you close to the heart of town and the famous Cherohala Skyway—a favorite route for travelers, riders, and driving enthusiasts. Inside, you'll find generous gathering spaces where everyone can be together. The main living area is set up for conversation, games, and movie nights, with ample seating, a warm electric fireplace, and a large TV. The extra-large kitchen is built for groups, offering abundant counter space, multiple appliances, and room to prepare big family-style meals. Just off the kitchen, dining space accommodates large parties so your entire group can sit and eat together. The primary suite on the main floor offers an especially relaxing retreat, with direct porch access and a spacious ensuite bath featuring a walk-in shower and a soothing jacuzzi tub. Additional bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged to comfortably host multiple families, couples, or friends traveling together, with plenty of beds and bathrooms to make mornings and evenings easy. Downstairs, the game room keeps everyone entertained, featuring a pool table, TV, and additional space for cards, board games, and kids to hang out. Step outside to enjoy the expansive yard and outdoor areas. The large grassy lawn is ideal for yard games, picnics, and casual gatherings, and it also works wonderfully for weddings, family reunions, business retreats, and other events. Ample parking makes group logistics simple, whether guests arrive in multiple vehicles, motorcycles, or small trailers. With its combination of size, comfort, and location, Bear's Den is equally suited to a weekend getaway, a multi-family vacation, or a destination celebration. Enjoy stunning views over Tellico Plains, quick access to dining and local shops, and an easy drive to the scenic Cherohala Skyway, waterfalls, hiking, fishing, and outdoor adventures in the surrounding mountains. Bear's Den offers the space, amenities, and setting you need to bring everyone together and make lasting memories in East Tennessee.
