Excellent location, beautiful view, be aware of bears!
Our family of 4 had a lovely stay at 3 Bears. The house was very clean when we arrived. It's close to Pidgeon Forge and Dollywood (~20 min drive), but it still felt secluded and quiet with a beautiful mountain view from the back porch, which also had a hot tub that we all enjoyed. There was plenty of space on 3 levels, and the kids had fun with the pool table on the lower level. The house included a starter kit of paper products and cleaning supplies, and there was plenty of firewood to use in the wood-burning fireplace.
The kitchen was adequate for the basics, but if you plan to make a large meal (ex. Thanksgiving dinner), you should bring your own essentials for meal prep (knives, casserole dishes, large pot). If you tend to be cold, bring extra blankets, and bring pillows and blankets if you plan to use the sleeper sofa in the living room.
Lastly, be aware that there are active bears in the area! During our 5 day stay, we saw a mama bear with 2 cubs and another VERY large bear, at times within 20 yards of the house. Be sure not to go outside alone, particularly in the dawn/dusk/night time, and make plenty of noise when outside. The house has a bear locker for garbage, and don't leave any food/garbage in your car/truck.
