We have personally created or restored the furniture and decor pieces to add a unique touch. We hope that you will enjoy your stay at Appalachian Escape Cabin just as much as we do and take care of the cabin with the respect it deserves.

Great home in the mountains

This home was great for our family. We had 7 total guests ranging from 1 to 65. The kids enjoyed the games while at the house. The kitchen is stocked well for cooking. Plenty of towels in the bathrooms. The drive way is steep so be cautious. The only downside was you could hear everything so once the baby went to bed we all had to be very quiet- down to hearing phones vibrate from different floors. Otherwise though it was great and we would return!

Long weekend

Peaceful and quiet! Short mountain drive into Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge ,if the hustle and bustle is your thing. Driveway turn was pretty tight for our F-150 pickup. The kitchen was spacious and nicely stocked for cooking in, with large dining table and“overflow counter seating. We enjoyed the hot tub, cozy for 4 adults. Plenty of sleeping space for large family, though we found the mattresses to be a little firm for our liking. Wifi spotty depending on your carrier- half the group had no trouble the other half wasn’t as lucky.Hoat was attentive and communicated clearly. Would stay again if planning a trip to the area.

Great Cabin

We comfortably slept 10 people. The kids loved the arcade and pool table. The Kitchen was perfect and well stocked for all our needs. Lots of space and nice chairs on the porch for rocking and just listening to nature. We even had a bear visitor but it was fine. Was a wonderful experience and would definitely go again.

About the host

Hosted by Victoria and Todd H

Host profile image
We are a couple who loves being "away from it all", the mountains, and the nature of East Tennessee and Western North Carolina. We are avid DIYers, and our cabin is our passion. You will be dealing directly with us, the owners! We know the area, we know our cabins, we love staying in them, and, admittedly, a little proud of them too. We hope that our guests will appreciate the cabin and make wonderful memories in the Smokies for years to come. Log cabin living all the way!

Why they chose this property

Our search for a secluded and private cabin was initially unsuccessful as most places were located in resorts where privacy was limited and the cabins looked identical. However, we finally found what we were looking for in 'Appalachian Escape Cabin'. The cabin's serene surroundings captured our hearts. Although the previous owners had built the exterior, the interior was incomplete with no walls, flooring, power, or proper plumbing. We spent over a year renovating and installing everything including walls, doors, trim, stairs and new hardwood floors, insulation, HVAC, furniture, appliances, lighting, cabinetry...and...and...and... It was a lot of work, but the result is a fantastic, top-of-the-line mountain cabin that your family and friends will love to come home to and won't ever want to leave! This is anything but a cookie-cutter log home! Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge have lots to do, from hiking to white water rafting to fine dining and live shows, to horseback riding and Go-Karts. We know that this area can entertain virtually any family for years to come.

What makes this property unique

Appalachian Escape Cabin exudes a tranquil vibe with its natural setting and secluded "cabin in the woods" feel, while still being conveniently located near all the area attractions via paved roads. The spacious indoor and outdoor areas can comfortably accommodate families or groups while maintaining an intimate atmosphere. Situated in the vicinity of the Arts & Crafts District, guests can enjoy browsing the charming family-run artisan shops and chatting with the welcoming locals. Pigeon Forge is also easily accessible. We take pride in helping families create unforgettable memories during their stay at Appalachian Escape Cabin and will do our best to ensure a fantastic vacation in the Smokies!
