Photo gallery for Wooded Cabin · Private Hot Tub · Pet-Friendly · Near Pigeon Forge

Hot tub after dark — string lights on, jets running, wooded mountain air. This is the reason most guests book.
Log cabin tucked into the fall foliage. Private, wooded- exactly what you pictured.
King bed with reclaimed barn wood headboard. Log walls on every side, ceiling fan overhead, full bath steps away.
Daybed and trundle — sleeps up to 2 more guests. Good for families or couples who bring the kids.
Open living room with electric fireplace and DirecTV. Log walls throughout. Nowhere you need to be.

We booked this cabin last minute for a spontaneous stay near pigeon forge. It’s off the beaten path and the driveway is steep with little to no room to turn around a large vehicle so be prepared to back down a steep driveway if you have a large truck, etc. Also make sure the front door is locked as it doesn’t latch shut. Overall a great and clean stay! We would stay again. Host is very kind and quick to reply to any questions

Beautiful Cabin

3 of us stayed at Permanent Vacation home, two adults and a toddler. It was the perfect amount of space. Not too much to be overwhelmed but plenty to not feel like we are walking on top of each other. The property was well maintained. Drive way is a bit steep so take caution on what car you pick to get there. If we didn't have 4 wheel drive, I don't think we would have been able to get up to the cabin! We will definitely be back.

Peaceful spot to stay

We stayed here for the Memorial Day weekend and used it as a quiet respite from the incredibly busy but fantastic Smoky Mountains National Park. After a day of hiking and fly fishing, coming back to the quiet cabin and relaxing in the hot tub was a great way to end each day.

About the host

Hosted by Stacia and Larry Morand

Host profile image
Hello! We are your hosts, Stacia and Larry Morand, and we warmly welcome you to our family's cabin, Permanent Vacation. In 2018, after an unforgettable anniversary trip to the Smoky Mountains, we were so captivated by the beauty and tranquility that we decided to establish Over the Mountain Cabin Rentals. The breathtaking scenery and serenity of the area inspired us to share this experience with others, and we hope that you will love the area as much as we do!

Over the Mountain offers a range of cabins, from cozy 1-bedroom retreats to spacious 5-bedroom accommodations, across the Tennessee Smoky Mountains.
