About this property
Breathtaking Sunrises in the Smokies :: A Cabin for Families near Cades Cove
With a stunning view of the Chimney Tops, Mount LeConte and all the glory of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, Sky Haven Lodge overlooks Laurel Valley from atop the foothills of the Smokies.
After a restful night's sleep on one of 5 beds (spread through 3 bedrooms and common spaces), wake up each morning and enjoy coffee on one of 3 decks with views for miles (no, literally -- like, 13+ miles!) and air so fresh your lungs will thank you.
From there, take your time making plans for the day in your spacious 2,700 square foot getaway. With two common areas, a large dining area, game room and a gigantic loft, there's space for everyone to kick back and have fun.
Enjoy breakfast (or lunch or dinner!) in our 10-seat dining area or outside on the screened-in porch.
What to do? Oh, the list is endless! Stay close with a tee time at Wild Laurel Golf course or head over to the clubhouse pool and get refreshed. Just around the corner are numerous outdoor adventures for the entire family, including: Hiking, rock-climbing, tubing, kayaking, fishing and more! If you'd prefer to take it easy, there are several scenic drives nearby, and beautiful Townsend with its local shops, crafts and restaurants is less than 8 minutes away.
Of course, you're also just minutes from Cades Cove, the Tuckaleechee Caverns, and Clingman's Dome, with the Island at Pigeon Forge and Dollywood/Splash Country both just 40 minutes away.
When your day is wrapping up, enjoy the fire in the sky at sunset. If it's cold, cozy up next to your gas fireplace with a cup of hot cocoa. And as the night gets dark, head up to the top deck for unparalleled stargazing.
An exterior security camera monitors the parking area, giving you extra peace of mind. While smart thermostats provide maximum comfort and smart locks so you'll never have to keep track of a set of keys!
Sky Haven Lodge is here for you to get rejuvenated and make memories to last a lifetime.
It would be our delight to host you.

About the host
Hosted by Christopher & Kimberly Rackley
Kimberly and I have spent our lives living in every single state in the Southeastern US, but today we call Philadelphia home. Living in the city is exciting, but this family of ours is a mountain family at heart. We long for trails, rivers and waterfalls -- to venture into the unknown and come back with a tale or two. (Oh, and we *love* Dollywood!) Our children are already asking us if we'll "move to Tennessee one day" so they can bring their children to visit. And well, that settled it. We decided to get our own little dream home. But life's still life and we can't leave Philadelphia right now; so we're opening our dream home up to fine people such as you, to explore and enjoy the very land we love so much. We would be most honored to host you.
Why they chose this property
The very best thing about Sky Haven Lodge is that it can serve two purposes: If you need to get away and clear your mind of all the insanity that is "life" today, this place is for you. Secluded, yet accessible; quiet and spacious with all the amenities you'd need -- the Lodge has it all for you to take a deep breath and RESET.
But if you want adventure? It's got that, too. Refreshingly away from the all the tourist-y stuff, Sky Haven Lodge boasts nearby hiking, tubing, fishing, rafting, golfing and swimming. Oh, and if you want the Dollywood/Island/Ripley's experience (which we often do, too)? No worries, it's just 35-45 minutes away.
And perhaps our favorite in this post-COVID world, this cabin is fully set up for remote work. With a work station (and places to sit in every room), enjoy 300mb WIFI throughout the cabin -- great speeds even out on the decks! And with so much space inside and so much to do outside, it's not hard to bring your family along and keep them active and entertained while you do work, then spend quality time together.
