All of the rooms feature beautiful wooden furniture and nature-inspired decor that blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings. Fresh towels, Ginger Lily Farms toiletries, and hair dryers are provided for your convenience.

On the lower level:
* There is one bedroom downstairs with a comfortable queen-sized bed, a stone electric fireplace and a private bathroom with a standing shower.
* Home theater, sauna and laundry facility are on this level.
* There’s a half bath on both the main level and downstairs to cater to the common areas.

On the upper level:
*The remaining three bedrooms are on the upper level. The first of these is the perfect slumber party room, with two twin beds, two full beds, and two custom-built queen-sized beds. Each bed has its own storage space and dimmable reading lights. Anyone who needs to get some work done during their stay can do so on the desk in this room, which seats two people.

* The second bedroom on the top floor has a plush king-sized bed and access to a private deck that offers breathtaking views of Mt. LeConte.

* Finally, the third bedroom contains a full bed and a twin bed. There is a full bathroom shared between this room and the king room next door.

☆☆ KITCHEN & LOUNGE ☆☆

The spacious kitchen is perfect for creating decadent feasts while socializing with friends and family. You’ll find everything you’ll need to whip up some food, including stainless steel appliances, spacious countertops, and plenty of cabinet space.

The kitchen is shared with the elegant dining area which receives plenty of natural light from the large windows. Enjoy stunning views while eating a delicious meal with friends and family.

Make your way to the comfortable lounge which features comfortable seating for your group on the sofa and armchairs. Sit back, relax, and watch a movie on the flat-screen TV or get some work done using the free wifi.


☆☆ MOVIE ROOM + GAME ROOM ☆☆

The cabin boasts its own movie theater and game room, complete with foosball, arcade games, and even a putt-putt course. Whether you're unwinding in the sauna or challenging friends in the game room, there's fun for everyone. Younger children will love the indoor playhouse.


☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆

Step outside to enjoy the Smokies' fresh air from one of three decks. Relax in the hot tub, fire up the grill, or gather around the fire pit for s'mores. With panoramic views of Mt. LeConte, this is the perfect place to reconnect with nature.

Downstairs, you’ll find another deck with plenty of seating, and a portable putting green. If you don’t feel like playing games, enjoy swaying on the porch swing and watching the action, or just breathe the fresh air while enjoying being immersed in nature.

☆☆ ROAD TO CABIN & PARKING☆☆

The roads leading to the cabin are mostly two-way and not too steep, except for the last 100 meters, which are one-way and slightly inclined. Although the 2-mile drive up Ski Mountain from the Gatlinburg Welcome Center is winding, 4WD is generally not required, though we recommend it during snowy winter months. Once you reach the cabin, you’ll be rewarded with the best scenic views.

Free parking for up to 5-7 cars is available at the front of the property.


☆☆ ACCESS TO CLUBHOUSE ☆☆

Our guests get access to the North Clubhouse which offers 3 swimming pools, tennis courts, a walking trail, ping pong, foosball, and assorted yard games. The pool is open from 9:00am - 9:00pm between Memorial Day weekend and Labor day. The North Clubhouse is closed Wednesdays for maintenance.

The North clubhouse also has a private banquet room available at an additional charge for family reunions, meetings, wedding receptions, and other events. Please contact us for additional information.


☆☆ Optional services (additional cost) ☆☆

☀ Grill & firepit: the grill and firepit (on the main porch) are free to use. However, no propane provided. No refund for unused propane.

☀ Pets: we welcome pets of all sizes as long as they are house-trained, recently groomed/cleaned, and up to date on their flea and tick medicines. Basic pet fee is $150 which covers up to 2 pets. After that it is $50 per additional pet. Please contact host if you plan on bringing more than 2 pets.

☀ Early check-in / late check-out: may be available for $50 per hour. Please ask the host at least 24 hours in advance.

DISCLAIMER
In case of inclement weather, unexpected events, or necessary repairs, certain amenities may be closed and unavailable during your stay. We cannot guarantee the availability of each amenity.

We do our best to make all visits as enjoyable as possible by having regular pest control services, but we can't guarantee that you won't see any insects. We are close to nature so there may also be some animals around and we can't control where they play!

*It's ladybug season in the mountains from now until about the 3rd week of November! This means you'll likely see them around (and sometimes maybe inside) the cabin.

Because the above situations are out of our control, we do not provide refunds for them.

Perfect family getaway!

We really enjoyed our stay here! It was our first trip with a large group of our family and this house was the perfect place for it. We had 16 people and there was plenty of room for everyone to have their space. The game room was amazing…I think the adults enjoyed it as much as the kids! The view of the mountains was breathtaking and the outside was set up perfectly to soak it all in. The owner was very quick to respond to messages and she even had a muffin tin delivered to make sure I had what I needed to celebrate our family members birthdays. We would definitely stay here again!

Family Reunion

Our stay was nothing short of wonderful! We had 20 people (adults down to a 2 yo) and there was plenty of space for everyone to sleep and enjoy the house. I will say that even the fridge is big, for a party our size, we had some spacing isuses with the fridge, but that's not on the host - that's more so large families are take into consideration. We had great weather and primarily used the outside space for dining so eating space wasn't an issue for us - just be mindful if you're eating inside, you can seat about up to 10 people in the same area. The views are spectacular and the kids all loved the arcade area and the room with the bunk beds. They had space to play, hang out, watch movies - we couldn't have asked for a better house for kids 2-15! We had a wonderful stay and would definitely return if we're in the area!

Family Wedding Venue

The home is lovely but very small kitchen and living area on main floor to accommodate up to 25 guests. We had nine adults and were unable to all be together on the main floor. The bottom level could accommodate more but steep stairs kept the older family members from being able to go down. That being said, everything else was fantastic. The views at sunrise were spectacular, napping on the porch bed was so relaxing, and the over-sized hot tub was a favorite. The trip up To the chalet is curvy and a little challenging but that’s what the adventure is about and part of the memories you make. Thank you to the owners for making communication so effortless and keeping up informed every step of the way. Our week at Morning Star was a joyful time…. even with tornado watches and crazy storms…the majority of the guests were professional photographers and loved all that nature provided. Loved our stay!

Looks bigger in the photos!

The kitchen and living look bigger in the photos than they actually are. It’s advertised for sleeping 24 but it’s realistically more like 20, especially if your group is mostly adults and teens. For example two of the bunk beds are for kids under 9 (about 4 x3 feet in dimensions ). Also the kitchen is too small if you’re preparing food for 20+ people. The living can maximally sit 7 people. The balcony kind of makes up for it with the outside chairs if the weather is nice. One of the beds was broken when we arrived. It was fixed the second night but two people slept on the floor. The owner did not entertain a partial refund!

Amazing views

The location of this home offers views that are truly spectacular. Mountain views in all directions, every bedroom had great views as well. The back decks were a big hit with everyone in the group and we spent most of the time out there, enjoying the hot tub, fire pit, comfy lounge areas. Plenty of room for our group of 13. Great game room for the kids too! When we arrived there were no propane tanks for the firepit or grill, owner was responsive in getting some delivered to us by the time we wanted a fire at night. A pipe was leaking in a bathroom upstairs so we couldn't use the sink for a day or so until that got fixed, so some inconveniences on the short trip. Wasn't the cleanest property we've been to. A lot of dust inside and out, cob webs, and dirty windows.... but other than that the house was a great place to stay. Kitchen had plenty of dishes and pans for meals.

Perfect place for a large family.

We chose this cabin mainly because there was plenty of room for our large family to stay comfortably. We had a surprise 50th birthday party for my husband and having the whole family there was a priority. Then you add the game room for the kids, who were in heaven, the large decks with the fire pit, hot tub and plenty of seating for our big group to just hang out and enjoy our time together. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook whatever we wanted. We brought paper plates and plastic utensils but they was no need, this cabin had it covered. I brought extra towels thinking there is never enough. There was an abundance of those too. Very clean and just a beautiful cabin. We were fortunate enough the get the best experience when the 3 bears showed up and wanted to check things out. We were actually cooking bacon on the Blackstone at the time but they didn’t seem to care about that. One had climbed into the back of one of the trucks parked there. We were able to get lots of pictures and videos safely from inside. Speaking of parking. We had enough for everyone to park. I can say that the majority of the large cabins in the area didn’t have that. You'd be lucky to get 2. Pet friendly was a huge plus as well. Did I mention the view. We were early for the fall colors but WOW. Cool mornings and evenings just topped it off. I would highly recommend this cabin for anyone. The price was not out of range. Just bring your food, everything else is covered.

The cabin was in excellent shape and the kitchen well stocked. The bedrooms were the perfect layout for our family of 3 couples, 2 single adults and 6 grands. The only issue, which is an important one, is that the cage around the trash was NOT SECURED IN THE GROUND in the parking area. Two of our vehicles received long scratches and dents from a bear throwing the cage around in the designated parking area. The only response was that the cage was moved. There was no further discussion or follow up by the host.

We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary with a week in the Great Smoky Mountains with all our children and grandchildren. Our Chalet Village North home comfortably accommodated all 13 of us. We especially enjoyed the spectacular views from the upper deck, the fire pit, and the hot tub. A well-equipped kitchen and large dining table and a bar top allowed us to cook and eat some of our meals together at home. The house is conveniently located near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and all the local Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge attractions. Some in our family also enjoyed the game room and the nearby Village North Clubhouse pool.

Amazing views and plenty of places to sit outside. We had four families ranging in ages from 5 to 82, and everyone had a great time. The enormous decks made the house feel larger than it was and the AC was strong enough that we did not feel the scorching 95 degree heat at all inside. The kids loved the large bunk room and arcade room, while the adults appreciated the comfortable beds and ample bathrooms. There were several empty propane tanks left behind by prior guests, so getting one recharged was easy - 2 mile drive to ACE Hardware store, and 25 for a refill. Separate gas grill and Blackstone flattop made it easy to feed a large group. But two things: (1) the road is steep and windy, so beware in winter months and (2) the bears aren't shy...I was cavalier about it and left the windows down when we pulled in and two bears stole a few bags from my Jeep when i was doing the initial walk-thru of the house, and they opened the door to another car that was left unlocked. But an amazing trip and house rental overall. Everyone wanted to return for another week in the future.
