Our family has been visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park for four generations. We were so drawn to the mountains and southern lifestyle that we had to own a cabin to experience it completely.  Goldilocks' Haven is named after our family of three and the bears that visit. ​

Papa Bear has sadly passed away as of November of 2023 after a long cancer battle. His memory lives on in our hearts and throughout the cabin. He worked so hard to update it throughout the years and has created the perfect respite destination. We believe he's working hard in Heaven helping to get our rooms prepared for us when the Father calls the rest of his family Home.

​

Mama Bear now fully runs cabin operations. Our housekeeper is a huge help as well for when she can't be there. We do live up north so it's quite a drive if something major occurs. Mama Bear is always available for any questions before, during, or after your stay. Please feel free to call or text about the cabin anytime.

​

Baby Bear is not so 'baby' anymore! In 2026, she will be 28 years old; very close to Goldilocks' Haven's age as it'll be 22 years old. When she's not doing her full-time job, she helps out with Goldilocks' Instagram from time to time. Even though she grew up in the Zillennium tech era, Social Media has not been a focus or desire so, in many ways, it's still new and unfamiliar (and constant posting is exhausting!).

​

As owners, we strive to be helpful. We will assist with directions, suggest attractions and restaurants, and help with other questions that will make your stay the best possible. We designed this cabin as a family, and we hope that your family and loved ones can enjoy it as much as we do.
