A Passionate View" is a unique Log Cabin, located in Gatlinburg with lots of large picture windows to view breathtaking and ever changing, unrestricted, open mountain views of the Smokies from every room. Great location, Long private, paved & gated driveway, to a private, beautifully maintained hunk of the Smokies with easy access to both towns of Gatlinburg & Pigeon Forge or the Great Smokies National Park!

Truly a quality everything, high end cabin that I clean, with professional disinfecting products, personally myself, I wash everything between guests (including mattress pad, sheets, blankets, quilt & shams), prepare & make the cabin perfect, myself, for you, in a professional manner with a detailed touch, including nice outside decks with clean, quality composite outside furniture, an outside, Pottery Chimenea fireplace that always works (connected to the main large propane tank that will never run out) & operational year round, a perfectly cleaned Hot Tub (I'm a retired, certified spa/pool operator) safe & extremely comfortable soaks await you, with the view! Couple getaways are special and often rare, come experience a great getaway property furnished with everything quality! I'm also just a text away should you need assistance or want recommendations on food, hiking, activities, etc, I've been living in Gatlinburg 46 years now.

No pets stay here, no children stay here, only 2 people stay here, keeps things really nice for you & me! Check out the reviews! Owner maintained makes a big difference & is rare here, I love being an Inn Keeper! You will never see me unless you need me, I believe in setting the perfect stage and letting you make your own adventures & memories in private freedom!

"A Passionate View" is Located 6 miles east of the downtown Gatlinburg Parkway and both entrances of The Great Smoky National Park (traveling through the historic Arts & Crafts Community) where you'll find a large lot on "Big Ridge" surround by the vast forest, huge trees and majestic Smoky Mountain Views. “A Passionate View” is also the last house on dead end, paved road offering lots of privacy including a long, gated driveway, you can not see or hear the lightly traveled road from the cabin! This is really a great cabin for a romantic retreat, honeymoon, anniversary or to simply escape into the mountains & away from people, in luxury! Easy to get to all the surrounding attractions and restaurants in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville or in the National Park. Within 3 miles of the cabin, lots of Food, Pubs, arts & craft shops, Trolley service and even the grocery store "Food City". The, highest speed limit is 35mph, vacation speed. The towns can get quite crowded and it is so nice to be able to retreat back to the cabin and a serine atmosphere, surrounded by nature. Some guests never leave the cabin and enjoy alone time in the mountains with the views, nature and all it brings!

paved and very ample, making it easy to park flat and turn around.

* Car wash area , has a nice sprayer, sponge, tire brush & soap all provided for you

* Picnic table in the side yard too

Location:
You might want to click onto the 'map' tab to see the location, then click 'satellite' in the upper right corner of the map & zoom in (see the huge paved parking area, pin is slightly off). This will show you the vast forest that this cabin is in & the distance of neighbor roofs. Then Zoom out until you see both towns to get an idea of the location, the two towns (Gatlinburg & Pigeon Forge) are 5 miles apart from each other, nice location! The whole area is very "action packed" with adventure and fun things to do & see year round, each season is so different here, you will not run out of fun activities to choose from or have enough time to do them all!

The booking and check in process is easy.
Half the total amount is requested at time of booking, the other half is due 2 weeks before your arrival date. This website will send you a payment request - reminder, 1 week before the 2nd payment is due, makes it easy! (I also do not charge or add on a "cleaning fee") I will then send you a confirmation and a list of items the cabin is supplied with so you will know what you don't need to pack!

I will send you directions to the cabin + door & alarm codes after the 2nd payment. Door code is the last 4 of your cell. I will also email you on check in day when I have the cabin ready for you, before 3pm, wander in whenever you choose. I'm available if you need assistance , silent if you don't! (I live a few cabins away)

Perfect getaway spot in the beautiful mountains

Planned a surprise getaway weekend for my husband and I, as a break from our crazy busy life. This cabin was perfect. We love the mountains, and the view we got to enjoy from the balcony (and the loft bedroom!) did not disappoint. Cabin was clean, location was perfect for our needs (day hikes) host was incredibly accommodating and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend and already looking at our calendar to plan our next stay!

Honeymoon in heaven!

We were so glad to have found this cabin! The cleanliness is beyond impressive; not a single detail was overlooked by the owner. From the kitchen, which has every appliance one could possibly need, to the plethora of bath towels (a rarity, in my experience with other VRBO's), to the pool table and hot tub, we thoroughly enjoyed our honeymoon weekend here. Thank you, Valerie, for sharing your amazing cabin with us!

Cabin is perfect! Location isn’t too far from town but far enough to obtain the peace and quiet.

About the host

Hosted by Valerie

Host profile image
I moved to Gatlinburg 44 years ago, as a teen (folks bought a campground, moved from Chicago!) & now, after a life of hosting vacationers in many types of tourism here, I'm now retired, other than offering this one cabin for rent! I live on the same road as the cabin, booking, cleaning. landscaping (with wonderful native plants, we have a ton!) & overseeing preventive maintenance, to make sure everything is first class for your comfort. I’m also a certified spa/pool operator so you are in for nice safe soaks with a view! I’m always available should you need assistance, silent if you don’t. I’m finally retired & living my simple mountain dream life among nature! I'm a hiker if you need info about the 900 miles of maintained trails in the Smokies. The Smokies offer some of the best hiking in the world! Very few trails will give you the views & comfort you have from this cabin, with no hiking work required! :)

Why they chose this property

“Hemlock Falls” area in Gatlinburg, known for it’s large lots/privacy, 48 cabins (only 5 are residences) on 75 acres of vast forest, all the cabins are different styles & designs where good roads and nature prevails. “A Passionate View” is on the best lot with the best view of the 48! (Yep, nicer than my cabin, ha!)

What makes this property unique

Personally owner maintained makes a big difference, I am the "cleaning crew" and this is rare in this area! Everything is well maintained & I make the accommodation perfect for your daylight or dark arrival plus all good roads which, can be rare in this area too!
