This is a new listing
Welcome to Rustic Retreat, an adventure-ready cabin perfectly positioned between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, with easy, non-steep roads and flat parking for a stress-free arrival. Guests traveling with an electric vehicle can also enjoy the convenience of an on-site EV charger during their stay.
This cozy mountain hideaway sleeps six comfortably, featuring a king bedroom, a queen bedroom, a sleeper sofa, and two full bathrooms with walk-in showers, giving everyone plenty of space to settle in after a day of exploring.
Rustic Retreat is designed for guests who want to spend the day out in the Smokies and return to comfort, warmth, and fun. After hiking or visiting Dollywood, unwind in the private hot tub surrounded by trees, or settle into the plush reclining couches for a relaxing evening. The cabin includes an arcade with more than 14,000 games, plus board and card games for laid-back nights around the table.
Outside, the wood-burning fire pit offers the perfect place to end the day—roasting marshmallows, sharing stories, or simply watching the flames as the stars come out. The location is peaceful, quiet, and close to nature, yet only minutes from restaurants, shopping, and major attractions.
A fully stocked kitchen and in-cabin washer and dryer make longer stays easy, and the cabin is dog-friendly, so you can bring your four-legged family member along for the adventure.
Whether you're planning a couples' escape, a small family getaway, or a mountain retreat with your dog, Rustic Retreat provides the perfect balance of convenience, comfort, and Smoky Mountain charm. Come explore, unwind, and make memories in a place that feels like your own home in the mountains.
**Dog Fee: $75 per dog plus tax, up to a maximum of 3 dogs. All dogs must be crated when left unattended.**
Please note: The cabin is supplied with linens and bath towels. We only supply a starter set of paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, dish soap & liquid, and bath bar soap. You are then responsible for said items during the remainder of your stay.

Wonderful stay for myself and my husband. Perfectly located right in between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Private, clean and had everything we needed to feel like we were in our "home away from home." Hottub was an added bonus and loved being able to grill and have a fire. Will definitely be back.
Great property near Gatlinburg and pigon forge only downfall could use a couple of recliners more comfortable than the straight back chairs

Thank you for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed the property's convenient location near both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. It's wonderful to hear that the cabin served as a great home base for your Smoky Mountain getaway.
We also appreciate your feedback regarding the seating. Guest suggestions are always valuable, and we'll be happy to share your recommendation for additional recliners with the property owner for consideration.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!
The location was very accessible to town and the national park. The property is very clean and well decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked. The master bed was very comfortable. The property is very quiet.

Thank you for your kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the convenient location, peaceful setting, and the comfort of the home. It’s great to hear the kitchen and cleanliness met your expectations as well. We’d love to host you again!
I almost don't want to leave a review...Because I selfishly want to keep the cabin all to myself for future rentals upon my return to Pigeon Forge. :-) What a hidden gem!This cabin was awesome! The interior is more spacious than the pictures depict. Check in and out was a breeze. VERY spacious property. Plenty of room for outdoor activities. FULLY stocked kitchen...all you need to do is bring food. FLAT ample parking with pull through driveway. Convenient location to all things Pigeon Forge! No place is perfect, but this one nearly is. If I HAD to list a 'negative', it would be that there's no front porch for sitting to enjoy morning coffee, however there is an amazing firepit area with chairs. Also, the back deck space is taken up with the hot tub...but again, not necessarily a bad thing. (By the way, the back deck is private...so ENJOY that hot tub!We will definitely book this cabin again!

Thank you for such a wonderful and thoughtful review! We had to laugh at your opening comment—we promise we'll do our best not to let too many people in on the secret! We're thrilled to hear that the cabin exceeded your expectations and that you found it even more spacious than the photos suggest. It's great to know you enjoyed the easy check-in process, fully stocked kitchen, ample parking, convenient location, and outdoor spaces.
We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the porch and deck layout. While every cabin has its own unique design, we're glad the firepit area and private hot tub helped make up for it. Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation. We look forward to welcoming you back for another stay the next time you're in Pigeon Forge!
This was the perfect place for my family for the week. It was conveniently located between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg so we could easily get to everything we wanted to do. It's quite secluded (almost thought we weren't going to find it the first day!), but that was such a great thing. We felt tucked away from everything else and enjoyed the quiet and the bear-watching.The house was clean, the kitchen was well-stocked with supplies, and the arcade game was fun for the whole family. My only "issue" is there was nowhere to store our clothes - no dresser, nothing with drawers. There's a closet in each bedroom with a few hangers, but that was it. We ended up using open suitcases on the floor all week.That said, we would definitely stay there again. The pros far outweighed the small con.

It's wonderful to hear that you found the home clean, the kitchen well-stocked, and that the arcade game provided fun for the whole family.
