About this property

"A PEACEFUL RETREAT" , 2 miles from entrance of Beautiful " FootHills Parkway",

'A Peaceful Retreat' is a private, peaceful, log cabin that will remind you of days gone by.

It has a charming, cozy interior with nostalgic decor. While relaxing on the deck or in the hot tub, you can enjoy the serenity of the forest and watch the majestic sunset over the mountain tops. In the morning, sit on the cozy front porch with a cup of coffee and listen to the birds sing or play a game of checkers on the checkerboard table.

This private cabin is perfect for that romantic honeymoon or anniversary, yet large enough for that small family. So, leave your troubles behind, come make memories and enjoy a quiet peaceful time at 'A Peaceful Retreat'.

Our peaceful cabin is located in the Beautiful Wear's Valley Area. We are only minutes away from Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Townsend, Cades Cove & The Great Smokey Mountain National Forest.

The cleanest property I’ve ever stayed at. The hot tub was a delight. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. Smaller than it appeared in the photos but quite adequate for our needs. I did end up whacking my head on the staircase as it extends out in to the living space. Enjoyed our stay.

Thank you Margaret, for your wonderful review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at A Peaceful Retreat and appreciated the cleanliness, hot tub, well-stocked kitchen, and comfortable beds. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the staircase. Because of the cabin’s cozy mountain-cabin design, the stairway does extend slightly into the living area, and we will continue looking for ways to make guests more aware of this feature. Thank you for choosing our cabin for your getaway. We were happy to host you and would love to welcome you back anytime you visit the Smoky Mountains.

The cabin was great. Well stocked with full kitchen accessories, washer dryer, jacuzzi, towels, etc. Host was quick to communicate with us about any questions. Location was great, not far from local attractions. Plenty to do and see in the area. Very cozy and peaceful just like the name.The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was the bedding situation. The fitted sheets did not fit the downstairs mattress appropriately and kept coming off. They were too small for the mattress. Host should definitely upgrade the sheet quality and get some deep pocketed sheets to fit the mattress. We ended up just laying the flat sheet over the bed and tucking it in and using our own blankets to cover up with. Otherwise we were sleeping directly on the mattress cover despite our best efforts. The pillows were also incredibly thick and firm. The spares in the trunk were pancake thin.

Thanks for your review, we every effort to accommodate our guest in every situation, however we do supply deep pocket linen. There could have been a mixup with housekeeping, we totally sorry for that. If you would have contacted us, we surely would have corrected that situation quickly. As reference to the pillows, we have provided multiple choices on pillows, we will also add the middle area of pillows to our cabin, thanks for bringing that to our attention. Again we take our guest very serious on any concerns that arise. God Bless and thanks for the review. Ted & Pam

The photos do not do the beauty of this cabin enough justice! The cabin is very well maintained and clean. We were impressed by all the little details. Down to the charging flash lights to the night lights in every room, to the decor, and even the kitchen light made from an antique metal strainer. The hot tub was so relaxing and also well maintained and clean. We found the cabin to be very quiet and although neighbors are near by, you hardly noticed them or anyone else! We would stay again!

About the host

Host profile image
“A Peaceful Place To Visit”
The great Smokey Mountains National Park in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, is a peaceful place to visit. Looking through the eyes of nature the enjoyment and serenity of the forest is like a journey through space before entering the sacred gates of heaven.
Blue hazy smoke drifts lazily over the mountain tops like a blanket protecting a sleepy town. Towards the east, slowly peeking over the horizon, the rising sun views the waking park and unfolds like a majestic answer to an artist’s dream.
Vividly rushing creeks meander along winding mountain roads to form roaring waterfalls that seem to perish like the ends of the earth.
Strolling through lush green forest, sweet chirping sounds float like a choir of angels singing.

This is proof that there is an almighty God and he does give you the desires of your heart. This was a paper I wrote in college in 1991, before we ever thought it was possible to achieve our dream of owning property.
Pam & Ted Ponville

Why they chose this property

We came to the Great Smoky Mountains in 1977 for our honeymoon and fell in love with the area. Most of our family vacations were spent in this area. We always talked and dreamed of owning a log cabin one day and that dream became a reality.

What makes this property unique

Enjoying shopping for local crafts, outlet malls, antiques, & flea markets in the area. Plan a day to go ice skating at Ober in nearby Gatlinburg. We love to picnic in Cades Cove while enjoying nature & wildlife.
