The Gatlinburg Trolley Station with parking is down the road and available for car-free shopping, dining, and entertainment in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. It also goes into the park for hiking on a paved trail to Laurel Falls and to the Visitor Center. If you like to explore on foot, the park offers everything from short nature trails to longer back country hikes. The park is filled with trails, waterfalls and an abundance of wildlife. Horseback riding and trout fishing are also favorite outdoor activities in the Smoky Mountains.

The main level has a wall of windows and deck rockers to take in the views. Kitchen, dining, living room with wood burning fireplace and king master bedroom are also located on the main level. The spacious kitchen is stocked with everything you would expect in a normal kitchen, including blender, toaster, slow cooker, various size pots & pans, wine glasses, a Keurig, and a regular coffee pot.

Upstairs consists of 2 king bedrooms with and bathroom with a tub/shower. Access to the top deck thru the catwalk for additional rockers to enjoy the awesome views.

Merry Christmas!!!
Beautiful, spacious, well appointed property nestled 15 entertaining minutes by a very circuitous route (I hope you don't get motion sickness or vertigo) above downtown Gatlinburg. The owners had decorated the property in the Christmas spirit with a tree and various lights and tinsel (a much appreciated touch). Full kitchen (with plenty of serving, cooking and cleaning supplies), large dining area, multiple decks and chairs, 4 large bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, hot-tub (in good condition), and a combined theater and game room (with attached laundry and included supplies). Very clean, with great amenities (with a caveat I will get to shortly). Unfortunately I have to deduct a star for a missing lanyard & keycard for access to the community centers (I was planning on using the fitness facility) and a broken pinball machine.Otherwise highly recommend! Thanks!!!!

Fantastic and Breathtaking
Wonderful cabin in the mountains. Bears in the morning and beautiful vistas always. The road to the house is a fun vertical twisty turny route. Their is so much to do in the area and things for family makes for a great centralized location to head out from. House is great and clean and everything is basically perfect to make for a great place to rest your head and enjoy your evenings after a long day at Dollywood or doing the wonderful outdoor adventures available to you in the area. Horseback riding, Fishing, Animal Watching, Go Kart Racing, Zip Lines etc. Just magnificent.

Great stay with a few cons
Overall, my family & I had a great stay here. The bears were frequent visitors which made the stay even better. Although, you should lock your doors on the cars at all times because we had a mamma bear & her 3 cubs get inside of our cars & scratch the doors. On the first day, the owner waited until arrival to let us know the main level sink was leaking & a plumber would be out Monday to repair it. Monday we never received an update stating the sink was fixed & we came back to the cabinets under the sink wide open towels everywhere. There is a house next door being worked on & the workers often blocked the driveway & they turned the power off in the morning from the pole which reset the central air in the cabin. The central air stopped working & blew out hot air. I had to reach out to the owners & they had a technician come to repair the system which resulted in a new thermostat. So, that was an inconvenience after the cabin reached 82 degrees. Also, you have to have approval for visitors at the cabin from the owners even if it’s for them to come over for dinner. We had family vacationing in Tennessee with us. & another major thing was having our privacy invaded. The owners have cameras in the backside of the cabin, & out front. They have numerous 360 rotating ones with audio. They will check the cameras as they did for us. They have ones right by the hot tub on the lower deck that are 360 rotating which is kind of eerie. We felt like our privacy was invaded a few times

Best Stay Ever!!!
I couldn’t have picked a better place! The owners are amazing. The cabin was spacious and very clean, fully stocked with all the basics and more. This cabin is beautiful inside and out. We saw a mama bear and her 3 cute cubs. Saw other bears just playing outside. We used the hot tub even though it’s July, so relaxing at night! Pools are so close in a car ride. Best trip hands down! Thinking about making this an annual vacation. Check the website bc they have many things already like bath towels, blow dryer etc..

Amazing!
The house is incredible! The beds were comfortable, the decks had top-notch views and the driveway was a horseshoe and fit 4 cars (a major plus for this area). All 8 of us loved the movie theater set-up and video games. And a mama bear and cubs welcomed us (from a safe distance) on our first day and made another appearance on our last. Definitely would stay here again!

Clean cabin in a great location
The cabin was clean and comfortable. The kids loved the movie room, corn hole boards and the pool table. The view was amazing. We enjoyed coffee on the deck every morning. We saw several bears in the evenings which was really cool. The only suggestions I would have for a more comfortable stay would be to have more chairs with backs by the fire pit. There were only 2. There were also benches but those are not nearly as comfortable. And more bath towels. We had to wash towels to have enough for everyone. Overall a great cabin. I would stay here again.

Family vacation
Great place to stay! It was just my family of four, so we had plenty of room. It was nice for all of us to have our own space and bathrooms. Location was perfect. Was able to park our vehicle at the bottom of the mountain, which was about a 8 minute drive from house, and take the trolley in to town. Would definitely stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Vivian & Frank

Host profile image
We fell in love with the location and purchased a cabin in 2007. This has become our home away from home and look forward to relaxing with family and enjoying nature. We purchased this second property in Gatlinburg in 2016 to accommodate our growing family. We make every effort to have all the amenities to make our guests feel at home. The Aguiar Family.

Why they chose this property

We love the location of the cabin. It also has a flat circular driveway and a yard in the back, which are both difficult to find on Ski Mountain.

What makes this property unique

The main things we enjoy at the cabin is the peace and quiet. We enjoy the frequent visitors that are seen around the cabin, such as bears, deer, wild turkeys, rabbits, fox.... We also enjoy sitting in the hot tub and enjoying the peaceful scenery.
