About this property

Rustic Charm | Pet Friendly, Hot Tub, Fireplaces!

Discover the ideal romantic getaway in the Great Smoky Mountains when you stay at Rustic Charm in Gatlinburg’s prestigious Cobbly Nob neighborhood. You’ll feel a million miles apart when you look out your wall-to-ceiling windows onto the woods and listen to the wrens and warblers serenading you on your deck. You can even bring your dog because pets are welcome in the cabin too!

Rustic Charm has it all – two community pools to enjoy in summer, your own private hot tub, and a location that is just a mile from the award-winning Bent Creek Golf Course designed by golfing legend Gary Player. But all that is just the start of what you will love about Rustic Charm.

Rustic Charm can accommodate up to six when the two sleeper sofas are used. When you enter your great room, you’ll be delighted to find large windows onto the deck and the woods beyond. You could sit for hours enjoying a fire in the gas log fireplace. Things get even better when you step out on the deck to sip your morning coffee or an evening cocktail. It’s wonderful to be so close to nature.

Your great room also houses your kitchen, dining table, and king-sized poster bed. When you’re not running around hiking, biking or simply enjoying the mountains, you may want to tune into your TV with cable. You also have a DVD player so you can watch an old favorite as you sit by the fire. You also have free Wi-Fi so you can easily post photos to social media and message friends back home.

Your Rustic Charm kitchen includes everything you need to cook and serve your group. Whether you are cooking a multi-course meal or reheating leftovers from a fancy dinner you had in downtown Gatlinburg the night before, you’ll feel well equipped for the task. You even have a charcoal grill in case you want to cook up some burgers or steaks.

In addition to your main floor great room, you have a second-floor game room with fireplace, TV, and sleeper sofa. There is a pool table and a game table perfect, for a game of checkers. For your added convenience, there’s a mini refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker in the game room along with access to a porch where you can sit and enjoy the view from a comfortable rocking chair. You’ll find a convenient bathroom on the second floor with a vanity with a large sink and a walk-in shower. Guests appreciate the convenience of having their own bathroom.

Back on the first floor, you’ll settle down for the night in your king-sized poster bed and wake up to the breathtaking Great Smoky Mountain view. Your primary bathroom is replete with rustic charm and the luxury of a large, indoor, jetted tub and separate walk-in shower.

Rustic Charm has its own washer and dryer, keeping you from having to visit a laundromat during your vacation. You won’t waste a single minute waiting for your clothes to dry!

You’ll find plenty to do during your stay at Rustic Charm. In fact, your biggest challenge will be finding enough time to take in everything. Be sure to visit Climb Works that’s just two miles from your cabin. There you can enjoy the mountains via zipline or mountain biking. You’ll also want to visit the Great Smoky Arts and Crafts Community that includes eight miles of wonderful galleries, shops, and studios for you to explore. In Gatlinburg, be sure to take the Gatlinburg Tram to the amusement park and ski area. Each day during your stay new and exciting opportunities for fun will unfold.

1st anniversary trip

My husband and I stayed at rustic charm to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. The drive in was a breeze & info was well stated for entry. The cabin itself was beautiful. The floor plan is a little quirky but it kept the upstairs intimate. The view from the upstairs balcony is breathtaking. We were lucky enough to catch the most beautiful view of snow capped mountains. Wonderful place.

*Read the fine print- you cannot check in until 4 pm, but you have to be out by 10 am. I texted that morning to see if we could get in at 2, and they said if it was done being cleaned, they could accommodate us (we had a reservation for an activity at 3pm).We drove by the cabin and the cleaners were there at 1:30 pm. I called at 2:30 and they said that they weren't done cleaning. We sat in the driveway from 3pm until 4pm, while the cabin remained empty, because the cleaners had come and gone. The person at the service center just did not care. So just be aware that they an inflexible.The cabin itself was okay. It could use a deep clean. For what they charge, it should be clean. Which brings me to my next point- the mop, broom, vacuum, and cleaning supplies are just sitting there in the open. It looks cluttered and messy. There are closets downstairs that those items should be stored.The bed was incredibly uncomfortable, but the pillows were decent. The hot tub jets barely worked. Instead of a vigorous massage, the jets provided a sad, sputtering trickle.My biggest issue was the lack of communication, and the apathetic management company. I sent a message through VRBO weeks prior to our trip, which went unanswered. I texted about a week before our trip and that also went unanswered.Don't let you this review put you off of VRBO. I have stayed at a few places, and this is the first time the experience wasn't great.
Dirty steps to the hot tub. All it takes is some hot, soapy water and a scrub daddy.

Peaceful Retreat

We had a wonderful time at Rustic Charm! The property was so well cared for and we loved they had everything you need for a longer stay (dishwasher/ washer and dryer). The location was breathtaking and I loved being just outside of town so everything was an easy drive! Highly recommend this place!!

Beautiful view!

Cleanest cabin we have ever stayed in. We have been coming to the Smokies for 16 years, never staying in the same place and this one WINS! All the comforts of home, cute as pie, comfortable, all the amenities you could think of. There is an outside entrance to the rec room downstairs which is actually a plus if there is more than one couple or even teenagers. Thank you owners of Rustic Charm!

Nice place

This cabin is really nice and cozy with a great view of the mountains. Clean, and everything worked. Nicely equipped kitchen. We took our little dog and we didn't realize how steep the area around the cabin was. We kept her on her leash the whole time. A little scary. Backing into the driveway or out was a little scary too with blind, steep curves in the road. Fortunately, people drove slowly, and I rolled down the windows to listen for cars before backing in. Lots to see and do around the area, with nice restaurants nearby.

Do Not Recommend Jackson Mountain rental company -owners of this property

Had an absolutely terrible experience with this rental company. Was provided two incorrect door codes upon arrival. The unit was never cleaned prior to arrival, and the previous guests left an absolute disgusting mess (pictures documented and available upon request)- dirt on bedding as though someone stepped on sheets wearing shoes, dirty beds, dirty dishes left about the cabin, old food products left out in kitchen and in fridge, garbage not taken out and full, dirty, wet towels about the cabin and bathrooms, dryer lint not cleaned. Management was immediately contacted, and we were told nothing was going to be done. We requested to speak with a property manager and were told we could not. This was all occurring the night before our wedding (after 7pm at night). The groom and best man spent several hours the night before our wedding doing laundry, dishes and taking out trash from the previous renters as the company refused to do anything. Several hours later, two workers arrived after nearly all of the work had already been completed by us. The company did not offer any compensation - when we requested compensation, we were offered a $40 refund for our troubles. Not an appropriate compensation for the troubles this company chose to cause. We will absolutely tell everyone we know never to use Jackson Mountain rentals.

Highly recommend. The cabin was lovely. The views were extraordinary. Had a bit of a snafu with our door # to get into the cabin, but through text we were able to reach the guest service and they provided us what we needed right away. Be sure to look for the Rustic Charm Guest Book if it's not out. We found it on our last day and what a joy to read as well as add too. The hot tub was such a blessing. The large indoor tub on the main floor, don't be in a rush to get in as for whatever reason the water pressure is not the best and very time consuming to fill. And please be careful, we found the service to be very slippery. But in hindsight, with the the outdoor hot tub, we really didn't need it. So definitely not a show stopper. As others have said, the layout is a bit wonky since you have to go outside to get into the lower portion. But well worth it. So comfortable. You can tell it has been updated recently. New Couches, I believe they are both pull out bed couches. The bathtub/shower was very nice with plenty of water pressure. And best of all, we did get a visit from a bear. So please enjoy, but remember to be cautious. The picture attached was outside at the Trash station.If there was anything i could suggest to Jackson rentals - the couch in the main living space is extremely soft to sit on and not the most comfortable. We would definitely return. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Good overall!

Allows pets but small potty area with a *sharp* downgrade down the hill makes pottying and picking up after them dangerous for both of us. Clean and relaxing overrall! Our main goal was the hottub which was sufficient but lots of broken/floating jets and rusty. There was no dish soap or any soap at the kitchen sink to handwash things or even your hands. Otherwise, it was adequately stocked for a stort trip

Just what was needed

My wife and I took advantage of a weekend where we did not have our two children. This doesn’t happen very often for us and rustic charm was exactly what we needed. The view was spectacular and the cabin was the perfect size for just the two of us. The downstairs looked very new and we played some pool while watching some basketball. Overall, it was just very relaxing. We plan on saving this listing and hopefully get to use again in the future.Thanks,Jim.

Very private, cozy cabin on the hillside. Amazing view of those gorgeous mountains. It was clean, comfortable and had all the amenities you expect from a cabin. The driveway may prove difficult for some, at a slight incline. Would recommend!

Cute Spot with a Beautiful View!

My fiance stayed here and we loved it! The cabin itself was cozy and well kept, the kitchen was stocked with anything we needed, the views were nice, and it was just a short drive into Gatlinburg. We were even fortunate enough to get a couple inches of snow on the last night here, which was a bit concerning with the small hill you drive up to get here but the roads were perfect on the way out. Overall 5/5, would recommend!

Cute Little Cabin in the Smokies

We had a wonderful time! Our code didn't work for the lower floor, but the company was quick to respond and help, which was great! A minor thing is that it was weird to be asked to bring our own toiletpaper and dish soap. However, overall the cabin was wonderful!
