I visited Black Bear Resort in Dennis Cove on Feb 12th, 2012. I'm planning a section hike in April from Hot Springs to Dennis Cove area, wanted to check out Black Bear as a possible focal point for the section hike. I immediately reserved the Overlook cabin and shuttle services for my section hike.
Black Bear is planning to Open in May, 2012. Their services include: Lodging, RVing & Camping, Hiker lodging, shuttle service, etc.
They let me be their first informal "guest". The wood stove crackled and popped all night, music to a hikers ears. The Wood stove kept me toasty warm. I watched the snow fall that evening and woke to a nice new snow. In the morning I did a quick day hike to the falls, about 45 minute hike from the cabin i slept in. Then had to say good by and drive back home. A wonderfull short adventure and AT hike planning trip.
for Hikers looking for lodging/support in Hot Springs/North East Tennessee area, recommend you call Big Bear Resort in Dennis Cove. Phone: 423-Seven Two Five-5988. They are located .3 miles east of the AT on Dennis cove Rd. http://blackbearresorttn.com/contact-us.html
