Welcome to the Appalachian Dream Lodge, a hand-cut and hand-built mountain retreat in the heart of the Smoky Mountains. This Gatlinburg cabin rental combines rustic charm with modern amenities for an unforgettable stay, located less than half a mile from Ober Mountain ski resort.
Inside the cabin, the main floor features exposed wood beams and tongue-and-groove walls, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The cozy living room offers leather sofas and a ceiling-mounted Sony TV with cable TV (including HBO movie channels) and high-speed internet. You can also enjoy the wood burning fireplace for relaxation.
The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals, including a Keurig and drip coffee maker. A handmade wooden dry bar near the stairs provides a great spot to enjoy drinks and entertainment. There is a private queen-size bedroom with a full bathroom on this level, along with an additional room featuring a twin over full bunk bed set and a foosball table.
Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other with a queen bed. They share a large bathroom with a shower, ensuring space and privacy for all guests.
Step outside to the covered porch and enjoy the breathtaking views and sounds of nature. Keep an eye out for the local family of bears (remember to lock your car doors). The four-person hot tub on the private covered porch allows for relaxation in any weather. In the evening, gather around the outdoor fire pit for some s'mores and a cozy campfire experience. The cabin also offers flat parking for up to four vehicles.
Guests of this Gatlinburg chalet rental have access to three clubhouses, the closest to Appalachian Dream Lodge being the S. Baden Clubhouse, which has a large outdoor pool, changing rooms/showers, shuffleboard, horseshoes, a playground, tennis courts, a gym, and a game room with billiards, ping pong, foosball, checkers/chess, and video games.
