🐾 HoneyBear Hideaways Pet Policy ($350 Pet Fee per pet)

We’re happy to welcome pets at our designated pet-friendly cabins. To ensure a safe and enjoyable stay for everyone, please review and follow the guidelines below:

• Up to two house-trained dogs or cats are permitted per stay, each under 75 lbs (no exotic pets). • Proof of current vaccinations is required at the time of booking for all pets. • Property-specific pet fees apply. These fees do not cover excessive cleaning or any pet-related damages. • Pets must remain off furniture and beds and be crated when left unattended inside the cabin. Closing a pet in a room is not a substitute for crating. • Pets must be kept on a leash and supervised at all times outdoors, in compliance with Tennessee’s state leash law and for their safety, as wildlife is common in the Smokies. • No pets are allowed in pools, hot tubs, or on outdoor furniture. • All pets must be healthy, flea-free, and parasite-free before arrival.

By bringing a pet, guests agree to uphold these standards. These policies help us preserve the comfort, cleanliness, and elevated experience that HoneyBear Hideaways is known for.

✅ This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and security deposit. We know security deposits are annoying, so to make it easier on you we have 2 options that you can choose between:

Option 1: Damage Waiver ($47) - Have a worry-free stay with coverage for up to $1500 for accidental damage (spills, breaks, mishaps) with no surprise charges. Just relax and enjoy your stay. Coverage up to 10 nights, +$2/day for longer stays, and provided by a third-party insurance company.

Option 2: Security Deposit ($1,000) - Refundable temporary hold that releases after your stay.

To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it's a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of our favorite local spots.

If you have any questions, just message us anytime!

Happy to help!
