Quiet cabin near Gatlinburg

Perfect location near Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Near enough to any restaurants and activities, but in a quiet location when you need to relax.

The cabin was super cute! Very cozy. I didn’t know the master was a second floor, but it was a large master. Had some fun playing the video game console. The hot tub was quite large and very relaxing after a long hike! Private parking was a bonus also!!

Great little cabin

We had an awesome stay. We came for a friend’s wedding in Gatlinburg. The cabin was comfortable and cozy with a great view. The hot tub was definitely a plus. My only complaint is that the bed was a little uncomfortable— otherwise it was perfect!

Amazing cabin with a beautiful view!

This was our first time going to Tennessee. We were looking for a quiet place to relax for a few days. The cabin was amazing. The location is perfect, only a few minutes from town but still quiet and serene. The inside of the cabin is immaculate! It has everything you could possibly need. The bed is so comfortable, I wanted to take it home! We had excellent communication from the owner Marc. I definitely recommend this cabin and location for a peaceful getaway.

Driving up to the property we were amazed with the beauty. What a view! This cabin does not disappoint and has all that’s needed for an amazing getaway! We celebrated our 10 Year Anniversary here and we couldn’t have been happier. So close to everything yet so secluded for privacy at the same time! Thanks again!

It is a wonderful property. However, it has a moisture problem everything was damp towels, pillows, bedding, and had a musty mildew smell. This was probably caused by the HVAC not removing the moisture. It was a beautiful property and location and I definitely would come back once repaired.Thanks for allowing us to stay at your lovely property.

Nice cabin

We enjoyed are stay at this cabin. It was close to town and so nice with well kept grounds.Our only issue was when I asked the owner if we could have some more garbage bags, there were 2 for a 4 night stay. As well as one packet of dishwasher soap and a roll and a half of paper towels. I purchased dishwasher soap, more paper towels and a lighter, no big deal!The issue was when the owner jumped to the assumption that we had more than two guests in the cabin which was against their rules. We did not and ate all our meals at the cabin, plus did tons of hiking, drank tons of water and Gatorade)so we used more than two trash bags while we were there. I would suggest to the owner to please post that you are supplying a starter of supplies to your guests so they can purchase what they need at the local grocery before they get there.More supplies were dropped off at our cabin when we inquired about the garbage bags. but again with the question of if we had more than two people in the cabin. Because that would be breaking the rules.We are always perfect guests in every place we stay and I was extremely offended to be questioned in this way for what seemed up be a simple request.

Exactly as advertised. The process was extremely easy through VRBO we didn’t even have to talk with anyone in person, it was truly an escape. The location is prime, outside the hustle and bustle of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, but just minutes away from the fun and excitement. You won’t be spending all of your trip commuting to the fun or escaping into solitude. Very quiet area and beauty right at your doorstep. Surrounded by mountains, woods, ponds, creeks, and wildlife, the retreat felt magical and yet all the creatures comforts of home made it relaxing. I highly recommend this location to book your getaway to the Tennessee mountains!

Great getaway

This was a great place to stay during her little getaway. It was close to the places we wanted to visit, that secluded enough, we were truly escaped from the hustle and bustle of downtown. If we decide to come back, we will stay at the same cabin.

Awesome

We both loved the property. We drank our coffee out on the front porch in the morning. Relaxed in the hot tub at night. The cabin was very homey & had all the amenities that we needed. Would definitely try to stay there again if we are ever in the neighborhood! The host had a great book that had listings for everything you might want to go do. Very helpful since we aren’t from the area.

About the host

Hosted by Marc Lopez

Host profile image
We have been the proud owners of On Smoky Pond since 2012. We loved it the first time we saw it! We had been using a local management company until deciding to go exclusively with VRBO this year. On Smoky Pond actually has 3 bedrooms, but we keep the first floor bedrooms locked and only rent it has a 1 bedroom. The Master Bedroom is large and it makes for a very spacious rental as a 1 bdrm. We absolutely love Gatlinburg and enjoy sharing our cabin with others so that they can experience all that the mountains have to offer!

Why they chose this property

Black Bear Falls Resort is in the perfect location - close to downtown (but out of the "chaos") - close to Food City (amazing grocery store) and easy access to the Park. 12 years later, it's still our favorite Get-A-Way. The community is small, private and our cabin is nestled in a quiet location overlooking the ponds.

What makes this property unique

The things that make our cabin ideal:
-flat/wide parking - any vehicle can park, even on snow/ice!
-private location of hot tub on the side of the cabin
-stream running on side of cabin
-location directly overlooking the ponds
-View of Mt. Le Conte
-Close enough to the pool to walk, far enough away to not see or hear
the guests at the pool
