Fun time!!

This cabin was a huge hit with my adult children and my young ones too. We really didn’t go anywhere as our goal was to spend quality time, and the cabin with games and indoor pool made it fun and possible to just hang and relax. We will be back!! :)

Nice weekend in the Smokies

The cabin was beautiful and cozy. It was nice and quiet and very close to town. The pool was great! We loved the air hockey table and arcade games. The road up to the cabin is a bit of an adventure, definitely didn't want to drive it at night. Parking was very tight with two SUVs but we felt accomplished getting them both in the spots, and grateful that the other cabin only had one car so that we could turn around and back in. The host was super friendly and helpful and quick to respond when we had questions. This is the first pet friendly cabin experience Ive had, it made me wish I had a dog with all the fun amenities for them around the cabin! Thank you for a fun weekend!

Cousins and siblings from NC Iowa were reunited and a great time was had by all. Kids loved the pool and air hockey, just wish there were space for adult supervision in the pool area. Beautiful property with seclusion but not too far away from entertainment. Great and unique location and cabin. Would definitely recommend!!!

Why they chose this property

It was love at first sight with these cabins! Traveling with a multi-generational crew the layout of these cabins allows for us to travel together and have space privacy for each family. We love the fact that these cabins are on nearly 5 acres, with plenty to explore, and can be rented together or separately.
These cabins hold sentimental value in that the logs that are in this cabin came from the sawmill that my grandfather and uncle ran when Jaime was a child. Once we learned this fact, we knew it was meant to be!

What makes this property unique

This property is secluded and private, yet 5 minutes from the parkway and the outlet mall!
