Festive Family Cabin! 2BR, 2 Living Rooms, & Scenic Smoky Views

Welcome to "Dream Come True"- your holiday Smoky Mountain escape! Nestled just 12 scenic miles (a quick 15–20-minute drive) from downtown Gatlinburg, this warm and inviting cabin is the perfect place to celebrate the season. Whether you're gathering by the fire with hot cocoa, enjoying a family game night, or stepping outside to admire the crisp mountain air and breathtaking winter views, this retreat brings holiday magic to every moment.

Dream Come True is a 1920 sq.ft. authentic log cabin, which offers a fantastic view of the Smoky Mountain National Park. The moment you enter, you're greeted with a spacious open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and wall-to-wall windows overlooking the National Park. The living room is well furnished, ensuring a comfortable stay. The stacked rock wood-burning fireplace is perfect for those cool nights while watching the flat-screen TV. The kitchen has brand new self-closing cabinets with new countertops and sinks in the kitchen and all baths. Walk out onto the deck, relax in the rockers, and enjoy the view and fresh mountain air. The first-floor master bedroom, with a king bed, has its own private master bath with a double vanity and a shower for two with a mountain view.

It was a warm and cozy cabin, but it was also spacious. Everything was clean and welcoming. It was secluded enough for privacy but not too far away from restaurants and shops. We were there for a family weekend away, and it was the perfect little getaway.

Comfy Vibes in a Smoky Mountain Setting

Fun Family stay

The cabin was well kept and very cute. We loved the balcony and screened porch. It's a good distance away from all the tourism, but not so far that you have to drive forever to get to things.

Great Stay!

My family of four had a fantastic time in this home! The home is spacious, allowing for the kids to have their own hangout space downstairs. If the weather had been a bit warmer and drier, we would have spent more time enjoying the beautiful view on the balcony. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it!

Private Cozy Cabin

Very nice and private cabin. Great views just outside of the busy downtown. Had lots of extra items for use which makes the stay super nice and convenient that you dont need to get all the basics to stay. Very responsive and helpful host.

Best of all the worlds

This home was a perfect balance of being close enough to downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge but also far away enough to really feel like a mountain escape. The home was beautiful and clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this home.

Mountain get away

We stayed at this lovely cabin. We felt tucked away in the mountain. It was serene and the view was pretty. It was an easy drice to local attractions. Very nice size house with comfortable beds and plenty of places to gather or have a quiet moment to yourself. I'm glad we stayed here. nice size house withncomofr

Anniversary Getaway

One of my favorite cabin stays! Adorable & cozy with great layout & amenities! Loved the additional great room downstairs with bookcases and comfy sectional couch. Perfect spot for watching our movie & cuddling up with a good book! Cobbly Knob area is away from the busy tourist traffic, yet a straight shot into Gatlinburg. Property manager was very attentive to any needs & made for an excellent experience. We will definitely be back!!

Quiet but convenient

This was our 2nd time to stay in Dream Come True. We enjoyed it just as much this time as we did last year. Great location on a dead end street, yet close enough to Gatlinburg for convenience. We will be back!

Wonderful stay again

This is our 3rd or 4th stay and it was amazing as usual! This home is comfortable and has everything you could need for your stay. We love that there are limited steps as I have some trouble with my knees/legs. We had a blast this time and tried some places we hadn’t been before. Anakeesta was beautiful, the Bush’s bean museum was quirky and fun. The drive there was amazing. Not to mention, all the great food we had. We love this cabin and will stay again when we come back!

Family get away trip

Little further out away from main area than I realized. About 30 minutes but that was my fault for not really paying attention to where the cabin was located. Beds were a little hard for my liking but overall cabin was really nice.

Relax and enjoy Tenn.

Good contact with owners, plenty of room inside, nice deck with views, covered and enclosed lower level an added plus for those rain days.. 3rd bathroom an added plus. A momma bear and 3 cubs did pay us a visit at the door, so be alert. Only negitives.. It is a little dark inside and parking is tight for 2 SUVs.

They stay was wonderful. We enjoyed the area. It was away from the noise of the city. The fireplace was so cozy. We lit it every night. The bed was very comfortable. We were sad that we didn’t get to see any bears. We hope to be using the cabin next year same time. Thank you for such a smooth check in and out.

About the host

Hosted by Samantha

Host profile image
Ron and Linda Pennington from Irving, TX: Ron and I have been coming to the Smoky Mountain National Park for over 25 years. We fell in love with the area the first time we came and knew that someday we would love to build or buy a home in the area. About 15 years ago we found the community of Cobbly Nob. The Bent Creek Golf Club and the views of the Smoky Mt. National Park convinced us that this was where we wanted to own a home. In October of 2011 we found our Dream Come True, but circumstances didn't allow us to buy. The timing was not right. Two years later in October 2013, we got a call from our Realtor notifying us the estate was going on the market. This time everything seemed to be in order, and we knew the time was right to make our dream come true. God's timing was perfect, as always. We couldn't have been more excited when our realtor said, 'You got it!' So we named our Log Cabin 'Dream Come True'

We want to share our Dream Come True with you, and we hope you will enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed getting it ready for you. We also hope you will go out and explore all that the Smoky Mountains have to offer; from all the water falls and hiking trails, to the beautiful drives and picnic areas. Take your time and enjoy it as we have been for the last 25 years.
