    We really enjoy watching you. Many times we just watch you on the tv, so we can’t comment. I need to remember to come back on my phone and “like” what we’ve seen.

    Great video again folks 👍! We saw the story about the bears breaking in the cabin there on our local news. What a hoot! Said they got away with several pounds of candy and even some sodas and beer. Not sure how they managed to carry all that loot. "Hey Boo-boo, pitch me one of those Cokes"! 😹🐹 Be safe!

    Hi gang , so good to see yal been having fun with family and friends. Dawn's breakfast made the bear hungry and me too . As many times that we have been up there for vacation, only one time have we seen a bear. The cabin is just amazing, who wouldn't love it . Thanks for the share . Have a blessed one.

    Dear Dawn We are an older couple from Indiana. We have been coming to the Smokies for over 40 years. We have photos with children and Grand children. We had rented a cabin in April but had to reschedule for September. My spouse and I watch you every night. You won't believe this but our poodle - Peggy watches you to. She sits on the couch and watches your videos. If you are feeling safe we would love to meet you in September. We would be very careful to keep distance. I would love to show you some of our old photos. We are staying in Wears Valley. It is our favorite place. On May 7th Peggy the poodle was 1 year old. Could you sing Happy Belated Birthday to her. Happy Birthday to you also.

    Will and Dawn, it's interesting to think that the wildlife in the Smokies has to sense that no one is around. I wonder if the black bears will come closer to the cabins. One year, the cabin we always stay at in Mountain Shadows, a bear climbed the stilts, got into the trash can and had a feast! Next year, the cabin owners had the heavy metal trashcans that had a spring lid that was bolted down!😂

    Nice videos of the cabin and location. Loved the décor of the Smokerise Lodge. Thanks for making us feel like we were there with you. I feel so sorry for those bears; they will probably be relocated or euthanized for being nuisance bears. The trash cans did not look bear resistant. I wish the owners of the cabins in that area would be more bear aware and get solid, bear resistant dumpsters. Human trash is not good food for bears.
