A Perfect Vacation Home Base

This is the 4th time we have stayed at this beautiful cabin. Needless to say, we love it! The cabin is perfect, with everything that you can want to be comfortable such as comfy furniture, comfy pillows and beds, snuggly blankets, and a fully equipped kitchen. The kids loved the pool and ping pong tables and game machine. We all loved the decks with the breath taking views of the Smoky Mountains.

Amazing views

The proximity to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge was so convenient even though we could have spent the entire stay enjoying the breathtaking views from the cabin. We enjoyed the daily visits from the black bears walking by the cabin. Everything was perfect and it was an ideal cabin for our trip. Will definitely stay again.

Fabulous Christmas Vacation in the Mountains!!

This vacation rental was perfect for our family! Gorgeous cabin and breathtaking views! We loved watching movies by the fireplace in the living room, cooking/eating meals together in the nice kitchen and dining area, and playing all the games (pool, ping pong, cornhole, etc). The Christmas decorations were the perfect touch. Hope to come back soon!

Beautiful cabin with amazing views.

My family enjoyed the cabin. We thoroughly enjoyed the view and took advantage of the outdoor space. We had a little bear visitor one morning which the kids were excited to see. The cabin is centrally located and very easy to get to. I look forward to visiting again soon.

Great extended weekend retreat

The cabin was as described: clean, stocked with almost anything you would need, plenty of space inside and outside. The outside upper deck has wonderful views while the inside has areas for relaxation, game-time, and group meals. We did see a family of bears which was adorable. The location is between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge so both are easy to get to. We really enjoyed the deck space and the game area downstairs. It was nice that some supplies such as toilet paper, soaps, detergent, etc were supplied which got our group of 8 through a 3 night stay without needing to buy extra supplies. Extra blankets, towels and robes were available. Plenty of space for everyone to be together or spread out and do different activities within the space. Communication with host was effective and we really didn't have any issues with our stay. Wonderful!

Best Cabin in Gatlinburg

Every year for the past 30 years we have stayed in Gatlinburg at least once a year. Sometimes we go twice. This cabin and that view is the best I’ve ever seen. We have stayed in some nice cabins too. This tops them all! Also, the owners are excellent! Can’t say enough about our experience! Go and enjoy! We will be returning!

Splendor in the Cove was beautiful!

We were absolutely blown away by this property! It totally exceeded my expectations, even after seeing all the pictures and reading all the other reviews. My family and I were traveling with my elderly parents so staying somewhere safe and clean during Covid was so important to us. Splendor in the Cove was immaculate. All the furnishings and amenities were top notch. Great communication with the owners, who are so thoughtful and considerate. This was our 1st VRBO experience and it couldn't have been any easier. We will 100% be returning to this property again! Thank you Gail for your extreme kindness!

Fabulous!

The property was fabulous! Amazing view, large bedrooms and bathrooms! This vacation was one we will remember for a long time! The property owner and her daughter were very helpful and responded quickly when we needed anything! I would suggest manuals for the appliances (we had an issue with the dishwasher and hot tub, they were not broken, just needed to know what buttons to press to reset and what the lights on the dishwasher meant) and fans on the fireplaces would make them more efficient (the living room is big and you cannot feel the heat unless you stand right in front of it) Thank you for sharing your house with us!

Vacay Splendor

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful home. The owners spared no attention to detail when designing and building this home. Very accommodating in every aspect. We love the privacy and close proximity to Ober (we love to ski). It was a perfect layout for three different families and our kids. The hot tub was in a beautiful spot with an amazing view - unlike what we have had in the past. We were more than impressed with the communication with hosts before, during and after our stay. There was a snowstorm before our stay and the morning we checked out and they were in touch with us constantly about driving conditions etc. My family and I highly recommend Splendor in the Cove!!

The absolute BEST!

This cabin gives you literally the best experience, all around. The location is under 10 min to both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Close to the entrance of the National Park, you almost feel like youre staying inside the park! We saw 9 bears durning our stay and all but one was seen in the yard of the cabin or near the roads coming in and out. It was quiet and created the most perfect relaxation on the beautiful deck. The view is breathtaking, we spent hours getting lost in the view. The cabin is perfectly set up for multiple families to stay together. Each bedroom has its own private bathroom which was so comfortable for our 3 families coming together for this vacation and not having to share over top of eachother. The common areas upstairs and down stairs have so much room for everyone. Communication and response with the owner is above and beyond. She was a quick text/call away. I will recommend this cabin 100 times over, and we’ll be back! I already can’t wait.

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION

Where to start? From the moment we opened the front door, we were all overwhelmed with the beauty, design, and decor of this cabin. One amazing room lead to another, and the attention to detail was impeccable. The upper living room was comfortable for all six of our adult party, and the flow into the kitchen, dining area, and upper deck was perfect. How do I even begin to describe the view from the deck? The pure peacefulness we felt sitting in the rockers every morning drinking coffee, and every evening by the fireplace sharing stories was enjoyed more than we can every express. The cabin was spotless, beds were more than comfortable, and the private bathroom for each room a welcomed plus. Every time i walked into a different room I would see something new in the decor that showed such attention to detail it was obvious a lot of love went into designing and decorating this home. Thank you to Gail, Phil, and Lisa. We can't wait to come back for another piece of heaven.

Great place to gather family with areas for everyone to spread out! Teenagers loved the downstairs bunks and tv room and mom close by. Beautiful large deck for views and yes we saw 2 bears, one on the downstairs porch and one in the side yard. We bear watched around 5:00 every afternoon from the tv chairs down stairs. Close to all the attractions and restaurants. Kitchen just needs a little more silverware. Spoons were huge for 4 year old! Would stay again!

Ray's Retirement Getaway

My family and I recently stayed in Splendor in the Cove in the Smoky Mountains (Gatlinburg, TN)...and it was an incredible experience! The cabin was very spacious and had a deck with a view of God's creation. The outdoor area extended from one side of the house to the other with enough space to even play Corn Hole.The kitchen was fully stocked with every pot, pan, dish, and drinking glass you could think of... which all came in handy since we cooked the majority of our meals at the cabin.Each bedroom and bathroom were roomy...not to mention the king size beds were very comfortable.My family and I used every inch of this amazing cabin...hot tub, game room and game table (we love board games).Well, I can't end this review without mentioning some unexpected visits from a family of black bears, which added a thrilling touch to the trip!Lastly, I personally spoke with the owner of this property and he is too kind. Bless him for sharing such a beautiful space to connect with family and nature.

About the host

Hosted by Splendor in the Cove

Host profile image
Our family has vacationed in Gatlinburg for more than 40 years, and we have stayed in at least 30 different cabins over that time. Even though we have been fortunate to travel all over the country, we find that one of our most favorite places to repeatedly visit is the Smoky's. So, in 2018 we decided to fulfill a life-long dream to build our own cabin. We then set out on our quest to find the perfect property.

Why they chose this property

Because we have stayed in so many different places in the Gatlinburg area, we sat down as a family and listed everything we have loved about properties and cabins we have stayed in.

Our favorite cabins have always been the ones with breathtaking views of the mountains and no further than 2 miles from the city limits of Gatlinburg. So, that became a must for any property we considered. And then, in the Spring of 2018 we found exactly what we were looking for. We purchased a 2-acre lot with one of the most exquisite views of Mt. LeConte that we have ever seen. Then, we turned our attention to the cabin.

For the cabin, we wanted a place for family and friends to experience the simplicity and beauty of nature while enjoying the modern conveniences one would expect of a luxury resort. Leaving none of that to chance, we came up with our own custom design for the cabin. Every detail of the cabin has been considered with our guests in mind, as we took great care to think about what features people are really looking for.

In the end, we feel that Splendor in the Cove has turned out to be precisely what we intended for it to be...a sanctuary where no stay ever feels long enough. As such, it is our sincere hope that guests will stay with us repeatedly. And, as time passes and guests provide feedback, we will look to make ongoing improvements to the cabin's accommodations.

What makes this property unique

The views at Splendor in the Cove are the most spectacular we’ve ever seen anywhere in the Gatlinburg area - hands down. Until we came upon this land, we had never seen specific views of the Mt. LeConte range quite like this before. And, we’ve definitely tried.

The true unobstructed view of it & the way it sits from the perspective of the cabin is as if Mt. LeConte was positioned right there just for you. It’s a truly breathtaking experience to witness from almost every room in the cabin - and, especially from the upper back deck while next to the fire.
