About this property

Pool-Pet Friendly-Mountain Retreat-Game Room-Hot Tub-Hiking

New as of February 2024, we have leveled up in the game room department! There are so many games to play and fun to be had, you will be entertained for days! Let the kids play while you take a relaxing dip in the hot tub off of the back patio- there is something for everyone! Of course your fur family is welcome too! The Hideaway can accommodate a maximum of 2 pets.
You will arrive at the property after a beautiful drive through the mountains. The driveway is steep but don't let that deter you! That allows for the beautiful mountain view from the front of the house! Once inside, you will find an inviting living space made for good conversations around cups of coffee. Off the living room is a full kitchen with all the equipment you need for any meal you would like to make. Step down off the living room into a game room experience like no other! Hours and hours upon entertainment to be had! There is a full sized air hockey table, a foosball table, poker table and stand up arcade game. Not to mention the many board games and large screen TV! Located on the other end of the house you will find the comfortable bedrooms, away from the noise and fun of the game room. Out on the back patio is a dining table for 6 and a separate seating area for quiet mornings or evenings. Also, relax out in the hot tub under the stars! You will enjoy your time away here at the Hideaway!

Perfect Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay here! The home was stocked with pretty much everything we needed. For us, the distance to town was perfect. The driveway is steep but caused us no issue. The hot tub was perfect in the evenings. We would definitely stay here again

Great family getaway!

Stayed here for a family spring break getaway! The property is a nicely updated and cozy. We enjoyed the hot tub and game room and used both each evening. The location is good about 20 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg. Andrea is a wonderful host and responded to any questions I had very timely! The fact that the property is pet friendly is a huge plus and we would stay here again!

Great vacation rental!

The house was very clean. Everything that you could need is provided. The only thing that I can recommend bringing is a few spices, mayo, mustard, etc... Not far from all the attractions and easy access to stores. Will definitely book this property again.

Perfect Vacation at The Hideaway

My family of 6 plus a pup just returned from a week long stay at The Hideaway. We loved this home! The cleanest and most well stocked VRBO we’ve ever had. The host is excellent and checked in with us after our first night to make sure everything was as expected. We cooked, played games, watched movies and had a wonderful phone free week together. Highly recommend this home.

House was beautiful. Kids enjoyed the game room. They love all the big tvs in each room. The dryer went out while we were staying there and the host got it fixed that day. Was so easy to deal with. Great location. Would stay here again.

Wonderful holiday week

Andrea's home is clean and so comfortable. We enjoyed lazy mornings by the fire before a quick drive into town. We always look forward to returning to the hideaway in the evening to unwind. We cooked a full Thanksgiving meal and had everything we needed and the kitchen. Andrea was great about keeping in touch during the week.

Great three day getaway

Everything you need is on property- including hot tub towels. Communication with the host was fast and efficient. We will bring our golf clubs next trip. There is a nice course very close to the property. The driveway was steep but that is true of most properties in the area. Overall we really enjoyed our stay!!

Perfect

The house was perfect! The house had everything we wanted/needed and was very comfortable and clean! My 3 adult children couldn’t wait to get back to the house everyday to enjoy the game room and hot tub! Andrea was a perfect host - there if needed, but not overly “present”. We were just sad we had to leave.

Perfect Family Vacay Home

This home was perfect for our family stay. You can tell the owners were very thoughtful in all the extras they have available, fully stocked kitchen, pool/ jacuzzi, towels, supplies for your furry friends, even a couple different crate for them to stay comfortable in. Our kids also loved the game room. It was where we spent a lot of time when at the home. The area is a quiet escape, which is just what we needed. The landscaping outside is so well done making great space of the outdoors. I also can’t say enough good things about the responsiveness of the owner. You won’t be disappointed in staying here.

Amazing

We loved our stay at this cozy cabin with the family and even our fur baby. The owner pretty much thought of everything to have at the cabin if you needed something. For the fur babies there were towels, beds, bowls, and crates. There were extra blow-up mattress and linens. It was very clean and cozy. Our family loved the game room and the living room, it's where we spent most of our time when we were there at the cabin. The kitchen was also amazing stocked with everything. The owner even provided a huge bowl up different K cups for coffee. We definitely would stay here again had an amazing time loved every minute of it.

Our Fall Break wont stay here again.

The house itself was good. The cleanliness was not that good. I found a sheet of fried chicken in the oven, left by the last visitors, that was molded! The hot tub was in a whole in the back. it was not easy to get in. The game room was the best part of our stay, we all enjoyed it. The beds were comfy.

First time visiting Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area

The property was very clean and pet friendly. The beds were fairly comfortable. Communication was optimal with the home owner. The area was beautiful, however the driveway is narrow and steep. We were traveling with a full size truck and a midsize truck it was a very tight fit. However, I do believe the driveway would be fine with two average size cars. My husband and I enjoyed the hot tub, we have visited other properties and the hot tub was not very powerful this one was perfect and clean. A word of advise the property may only be a few miles away from your attractions, however because of the speed limit and the terrain of the area it will take longer than expected to get to your destination. This is nothing negative about the property just a word of caution for people that were new to the area as we were. This property worked well for our mostly adult children and ourselves. We greatly enjoyed the game room.

Fantastic location

I am so glad we stayed here. The location was perfect! I had 3 kids with me and the game room was a game changer! After a long day hiking or exploring when I wanted to sit in a comfy chair and relax the arcade, karaoke machine, air hockey etc kept the kids busy while I relaxed by a fire. We allowed the kids to watch some extra TV and it was perfect having kids shows on the game room TV and whatever we wanted to watch in the main living area. The layout is perfect for knowing what the kids were up to while I made meals. The dining area is not as crowded as it looks in the picture. Absolutely planning to book here again in the future. It was so peaceful. One of us worked remote from the bedroom with the bunk beds a few days and the WIFI was fast- lots of meetings and no issues at all with video quality. My only regret is not staying longer.

Tennessee Vacation 2024

Loved our stay here, home was clean and quiet. Very relaxing. Everyone enjoyed the game room, especially the video game machine and air hockey.. Dogs loved it too. Home was equipped with 2 kennels for the dogs, which was very convenient. Home was well furnished, plenty of good coffee supplied but could use more dinner plates and better pans for pancakes, eggs and such. There is a griddle but no power cord so we couldn't use it. Hot tub was nice and relaxing, but patio cushions need to be replaced. Nice grill on covered patio, we used it alot, but bring your own charcoal and fluid. Very steep driveway, but 2 vehicles will fit at the top. We had a medium SUV and full size pickup truck parked. Andrea was in communication with us throughout the week and responded promptly to my emails. Overall we enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend...Thank you...

2023 Spring Break Trip

This property was perfect for our stay in Gaitlinburg. It was close to the downtown area of Gaitlinburg, and just a short drive to the attractions in Pigeon Forge. The home was clean, updated, and offered many things to do if you just wanted to have a relaxing day at the house.The hot tub was a hit with our kids, and the game room was an added bonus. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything you would need to prepare a meal. We were also happy to see a pack n play available when we arrived, as we left ours at home. Our host was responsive and kind throughout our stay! Yes, the driveway is steep, but not unmanageable. Our preference was to back in and drive out of the driveway, rather than drive in and back out. Our only regret was not staying longer, there is so much to do in this area.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Avalos-Froyum

Host profile image
I am a wife, a mother of four small children, a dental hygienist and a Jesus follower! I enjoy staying at home with my kids, I'm learning how to homeschool this year (yikes!), I LOVE the outdoors, camping, fishing and hiking. Hosting has been a unique joy to me- I find I love providing a beautiful place for others to stay and relax!

Why they chose this property

This property will steal your heart. Large common areas encourage family/friend time. A fully stocked kitchen at your disposal. A spacious game room for hours of fun and competition. And all the bedrooms are located away from the heart of the house for rest and relaxation. Beautiful views of the trees out the many windows beg for you to enjoy a cup of coffee and enjoy the mountains.

What makes this property unique

Located in the quiet of the Smokys, this property is ideal for a recharge and reset away from all the bustle of the Parkway! Although is is close enough to the action for a fun day/night out. The Hideaway also welcomes pets as it is a complete family retreat!
