About this property
Hickory Ridge by AvantStay | Incredible Private Elevated Cabin | Sleeps 20!
Welcome to Hickory Ridge, an AvantStay home!
Hidden amongst the pine trees, this rustic yet elevated retreat is the perfect place to get away for a while. Surrounded by nature with scenic views from every corner, this large, cabin-style property invites you and your favorite people to embark on an epic trip to the mountains. With 8 bedrooms, 3 large balconies, a hot tub, and a pool table, your group will have plenty of space to spread out and plenty of entertainment to create lasting memories. We can also have s’mores ready for when you arrive!
Nearby Attractions: Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee Jed’s (American), Mountain Moonshine Tastings, Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, Sugarlands Distilling Company, Ole Smoky Distilleries, Bent Creek Golf Course, Pancake Pantry, Hofbrauhaus Restaurant, Cade’s Cove (75 min drive).
If you love spending time in nature, staying active, and celebrating wildlife like us, a trip to Gatlinburg in the Smoky Mountains is a special treat. Located along the Tennessee/North Carolina border and home to the country's most visited national park, the Smokies provide over 800 miles of hiking trails, rivers, waterfalls, and a good chance at a black bear sighting. Over 200 million years old, the ancient mountains allow visitors the unique opportunity to connect with one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world and walk among century-old trees. Talk about a step back in time!
