THIS IS A PET-FRIENDLY PROPERTY-- SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THE PET POLICY & FEES
(PLEASE DO NOT send a booking request if your pets are not crate-trained)

Chocolate Moose is located midway between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, nestled in the mountains & only 2 miles off the main road that runs between Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg, making the cabin convenient to all the attractions of this Smoky Mountains area.

This wonderful cabin is tucked back in the woods on a quiet dead-end road and off of another dead-end road. It offers plenty of privacy and relaxation, with no thru-traffic, making it the perfect place for safe dog walking. Only three other cabins on this road allow a sense of security that you are not alone in the woods. The deck is gated for your pets' and kids' safety.

The living room has a 48" TV with a DVD player to enjoy in front of the cozy stone fireplace with remote-operated logs that can be used year-round for heat or romantic ambiance. The moose—and bear-themed couch converts into a queen bed for extra guests to sleep and a matching rocking chair. There is a huge movie library and a ceiling fan.

The kitchen has plenty of counter & cabinet space, as well as cookware & dishes that you will need for stay-in-the-cabin meals. There is a range, microwave, dishwasher & refrigerator with an ice maker, blender, toaster, electric waffle maker, slow cooker, George Forman grill, Keurig & regular coffee maker & more. The dining table seats 4.

The main-level master bedroom has the most comfortable king canopy bed, TV w/DVD/CD player & ceiling fan. At the end of the bedroom is a jetted tub. The Jack n Jill bath with tub & shower combination gives privacy to the bedroom & other parts of the cabin.

The loft area has a full bed, pool table, electronic dartboard, TV, toys, and a ceiling fan. There is also a full-size washer and dryer in the loft closets.

This awesome cabin enables every family member to have their personal space & each family member to choose their entertainment. Kids will love having their own private space from the grown-ups.

Both decks are covered to be enjoyed in any kind of weather. The side deck has a relaxing year-round hot tub, table & 4 chairs & rocker. The front deck has a large porch swing for taking naps & large rocking chairs & is gated to keep kids & pets safe so you can have peace of mind knowing that they can't wander off & go bear-hunting while you are relaxing. There is a park-style charcoal grill in the front yard.

There is plenty of privacy on the private wooded lot that has a paved driveway for 2 vehicles.

Come & enjoy the fun or a romantic getaway in this truly unique, custom-built mountain cabin that is perfect for singles, a couple, honeymooners, or a small family that will comfortably sleep up to 4 people. This is the ULTIMATE in luxury & style. You will not be disappointed with this UNFORGETTABLE FUN & ROMANTIC MOOSEY GETAWAY.

If you don’t like lots of funny moose, then this may not be the cabin for you! But who doesn’t love moose? The kids (& adults) will be amazed at the abundance of moose decor that gives this cabin all the coziness & warmth that you can imagine! You will want to come back again & again. Bring your well-mannered, furry, 4-legged doggy friends as they will be safe on the gated covered deck.

Chocolate Moose impresses again!

Everything was perfectly spot-on regarding the cabin and all of its amenities. A wonderful weeklong honeymoon stay. Geri is a super-responsive property owner who corresponded with us promptly on a few occasions when we had questions. I spent a week at the Chocolate Moose cabin four years ago and the place hasn’t changed an iota. All credit to Geri. Thank you so much!

Cabin Style

Okay, here we go. It is a mountain cabin. If you are prissy butch get a hotel in town. It’s totally a matter of preference and your personality. It’s actually a good adventure. For me it was awesome. The only thing I would suggest is to recap the pool sticks and fix with the darts (super cheap). But I only say that because my autistic son found a new love for the pool table and I thought maybe he would like the darts too. Obviously though most the time is spent outdoors and going to Dollywood (best food ever) and downtown Gatlinburg. Thanks Geri, I had a good stay. I would book your cabin again and I like your spunk..

Great cabin in the woods

Very relaxing stay, close to all the attractions, about a 15 drive to Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg! Loved the swing on the front porch and the big king size bed! Definitely need a four-wheel drive as it is in the mountains. Our jeep did a great job! Would definitely recommend!

We enjoyed the fun moose themed decor. The kitchen was stocked with all essentials. The king size bed was very comfortable. The living room furniture and dining chairs were not super comfortable

Overall great place to stay. The loft was great for my son. The main bedroom was everything I needed. We don’t require much when it’s just me and my son on trips with our dog. Everything worked as intended. We have zero complaints. Host was quick and to the point with all our messages. All info we needed was communicated in a timely manner. I’d recommend this host and cabin for the future.

Great potential, but NOT clean

Everything about the Chocolate Moose was great, except for cleanliness. It is possible that the property owner is unaware of lapses by the cleaning crew. When we first arrived, there was an overpowering smell of gas station disinfectant, which subsided overnight. However, in spite of the place smelling as if it had been cleaned, it was....ewwww. There were area & throw rugs with clumped hair, dried crusting in the coffee maker, thick dust and cobwebs on decor, dead beetles in the dresser drawer, and staining on the bedding. Maintenance was also an issue, although a sign on the fridge made it clear that input regarding these issues was unwelcome. ("...I'm sure your house isn't perfect either..."). Missing/broken knobs to open drawers, deteriorating cover to hot tub that was so waterlogged that it was nearly impossible to remove or put back in place. (Although the hot tub itself was immaculate!) Again, this place has SO much potential and would be 5-star with a good deep cleaning that is then maintained after each guest. Having owned a VRBO in the past, I know how hard it can be to keep up with little things breaking, as "stuff happens" when you host guests, but it seems that most hosts would want to know if something was broken so that they could address it, rather than stating that they didn't want to be bothered with these details. Property itself is great...a small part of the property management team may be the problem.

We found the perfect place for seclusion, yet within 15 minutes we could be in either Gatlinburg, or Pigeon Forge. We really enjoyed ambience of the mountains and the cabin was just perfect. Its just like the photos, but yet they dont even do it justice. We would stay here again without even thinking twice! Make no mistake, this is treasure of a cabin for a family, or a couple like us.

Great location

We had a very nice time. Dealing with Geri the rental agent was great and she was very helpful. The cabin was in a nice location just between both Pegion Forge and Gatlinburg. I liked the cabin, but the decor on the walls was a little much. The cabin really needs a deep cleaning. There was a lot of cobwebs. There was mold and funk in the Keurig (did not use) there was a used coffee filter in the coffee pot with mold on it. Washed this ourselves. I really think a deep cleaning would make this cabin perfect for the next visitors. Photos of the property are spot on.

About the host

Hosted by Geri

Host profile image
As a child, I can remember all the good times that we had when my Daddy would take us to the Smoky Mountains every year. I always had the dream that one day I would love to own a log cabin there and I would make it a 'very special warm & cozy home-away-from-home' and that is what I have done with the Chocolate Moose.

I have always loved animals & they have always been a big part of my life, so I also wanted to make a special place that guests could come with their favorite furry doggy friends like I do when I go there. My favorite traveling buddies, Dusty & Bruiser love going to our special 'home-away-from-home often & hope everyone enjoys it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Before buying this cabin, I searched & searched for the perfect location & one w/ a yard, driveway & close to the main 'drag' (Hwy 441) aka Parkway. So many that I viewed had only a small parking space, just barely large enough to get a car off the road & many were located way far out, in difficult locations, or too far from all the fun & activities.

I was looking for a cabin that was convenient to both Gatlinburg & Pigeon Forge. The Chocolate Moose is located right between Pigeon Forge & Gburg, only 2 miles off the main 'drag' (Hwy 441) aka Parkway.

It is on a short dead-end road with 3 other cabins & off of another dead-end road where there is no thru traffic, a great place to walk dogs. It is tucked away in the woods & offers so much privacy.

It was exactly what I was looking for & with a name like 'CHOCOLATE MOOSE' how could I not fall in love. This was my first cabin purchase. I have decorated it over the past years with moose, moose & more moose & I think that it is just simply the 'cutest and coziest cabin' in the Smokys.

I know you will love Chocolate Moose & make many wonderful memories & will not soon forget it after your visit. Since Chocolate Moose, I realized that this is my passion & have purchased other properties, see them all below:

What makes this property unique

The CHOCOLATE MOOSE has an easy-to-get-to location between Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg. It is located on a short dead-end road with 3 other cabins, giving you the comfort of not being alone in the woods, it is off of another dead-end road where there is no thru traffic, a great place to walk dogs. It is tucked away in the woods & offers so much privacy & allows for a very, quiet & peaceful place to stay. All roads are main roads & paved, just 2 miles off of the Spur (road from Pigeon Forge & Gburg)

The large PRIVATE covered deck off the bedroom has a 4-person hot tub & table & chairs. It also has a covered front porch with rocking chairs, porch swing & breakfast table & chairs that are perfect for morning coffee & fresh mountain air before starting your day. Charcoal grill in the yard.

There is a loft game room with a pool table & electronic dartboard, toys & games & a full bed. The downstairs bedroom has a large jetted whirlpool tub & a king log canopy bed. The bathroom has 2 doors, 1 opening into the master bedroom & the other opening into the kitchen/living areas for maximum convenience. The bath has a shower/tub combination.

With all the extras, coziness, luxuries & super cute moose decor, I KNOW YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED & you will love the Chocolate Moose as much as Dusty, Bruiser, and I do.
