My wife and I stayed at the Dancing Bear for a couple of nights in March '08 as part of a US road trip to celebrate our 50th birthdays. We did enjoy our stay, and returned to the UK with good memories. However, nine months later, I discovered that the Lodge decided to charge my credit card $260 for a... more

We have just returned from a wonderful couple of days at the beautiful Dancing Bear Lodge in Townsend, TN. This is truly the quiet side of the mountain, and if you're planning a trip to the Smokies, I recommend that you consider this Lodge as your base camp. Whether you choose to spend your time on the property or visit... more

We had the rehearsal dinner, the wedding and the reception at the Dancing Bear. The setting was beautiful, accommodations were excellent and the staff went above and beyond to make everything perfect. The food was also excellent. The... more

You really don't want to leave to go to the Lodge, except that the restaurant... more

My wife and I just returned from a 3 night stay in one of the 1 Bedroom cabins at the Dancing Bear Lodge and this was one of our most romantic vacations ever.

Everyone... more

We stayed at The Dancing Bear on 10/22/07. It was the best nights sleep we've had on a vacation. The feather bed was amazing! I have to say that was probably the best thing about the lodge. It's a very nice place and our lodge room was clean. The staff wasn't too impressive. They need to hire some help with... more
