I wanted to thank Curtis at Standing Bear for the services he provides. We stayed at Standing Bear the second day of our section hike last week and the cabin was really comfortable. Standing Bear has a hiker pantry with quite a bit of stuff, a kitchen, mouldering privy (best I saw along our section hike), laundry and bunkhouse. Did I mention hot showers? Curtis shuttled us to the local convienence store the next morning for some breakfast, then gave us some info on the upcoming days hike. We happened to run into Curtis later in our travels when he dropped some hikers off at Newfound Gap. We were hitching out of Gatlingburg and he stopped and gave us a ride to Clingman Dome where we left the trail the night before. Check his place out if you're in the area, you won't regret it.
