Cabin Name: Higher Ground

Come and enjoy this beautiful, rustic cabin where you can relax and enjoy nature. Tastefully decorated, Higher Ground looks like it stepped right out of Southern Living magazine. The country mountain décor gives you the feeling that you want in a mountain vacation home.
 
Higher Ground is a great place for 2 couples to getaway. With each bedroom having a king sized bed, everyone will be comfortable. Sink down in comfort and luxury in the Master bathroom with it's own whirlpool bathtub.
 
Play Air Hockey in the loft or just sit in front of the gas fireplace for the evening.
 
Conveniently located just outside of the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Only 10 minutes to Pigeon Forge and 20 minutes to fun filled Gatlinburg.

FEES: The management company of this cabin charges a $20 per stay Damage Waiver Fee to every customer. It is automatically included in your rate. This covers our guests for up to $350 worth of accidental damage should damage occur during their stay. If damage occurs to the cabin, furnishings, etc, please report it to management as soon as possible so that the damage can be repaired. You may opt out of paying the $20 damage waiver fee by putting down a $350 REFUNDABLE damage deposit.

Common Concerns:
*Road Conditions: Some of our cabins are on steep, narrow, curvy, mountain roads. If you are concerned about road conditions to get to a cabin, please feel free to ask us! None of our cabins require a 4 wheel drive under normal weather conditions but some do in inclement weather.
*TV & WiFi: We do have TV's and WiFi in most all of our cabins. There are times when heavy cloud cover, weather systems, mountains, or trees will cause problems with the signals. We always want our guests to have the comforts they want on vacation, but there are times we cannot control this problem.
*Pests & Wildlife: Here in the Smoky Mountains, we have lots of native bugs and wildlife. All of our cabins are treated for pests, but there are times you will find bugs or even have trouble with bugs. Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin and you'll probably see them alive/dead on windowsills, in vents, etc. Rest assured that your cabin has regular pest control and is professionally cleaned, including bug removal, before and after your stay. However, these bugs come back right away and unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about them until the season passes. Please never feed, taunt or approach any wildlife. This is their home and we are the visitors.
*There are no refunds for storms or power outages. If there is a power outage, there will be no water and potentially no heat. Storms can also make roads impassable, so if a storm is in the forecast during your reservation, come prepared with water and non-perishable food, etc.

Higher Ground is perfect for anyone needing easy access into the cabin.

There is only one short step up onto the porch, which worked great for my elderly Dad. This was our 2nd time staying and we love everything about it. Spacious, quiet, all the amenities like home, and close to Cade's Cove. Will definitely stay again!

Wonderful Mountain Cabin

We had a GREAT time! The cabin was clean, welcoming and we felt at home while we were there. It is a great location to all the local sites (we were there for hiking.) I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone who would like to visit the area. A plus - the neighbors were very nice also.

Extended weekend stay

Very nice and clean. Located near where we wanted to be. Excellent communication from property manager. As former owners of vacation rental properties, mountain and beach, we disagree with the requested additional tipping for cleaning. We have already paid for that service. If you have a great cleaning team, then the owners and or property managers should give out bonuses as appropriate.

Everything as advertised.

House was very nice...very peaceful setting, bed was a bit stiff for our liking. There was a Jeep Invasion going on which caused traffic issues (no fault of hosts). Perfect place to stay if you are attending. Would definitely stay again, just different weekend. I hear the annual Rod Run (car show) can be similar in traffic issues.
