Perfect Private Getaway!
Our stay was wonderful! Way up on the top of the Smokies! We brought our 2 dogs with us and they had a great time too, especially with the fenced in yard! Great place to stay overall if your looking to be way up in the mountains:)

Weekend Refresh
Our plan was to rest, refresh and enjoy and that is exactly what we did. Loved the cabin, and our dog Cooper loved the fenced in yard because normally he would have had to be on a leash.The cabin was very clean and well maintained. Absolutely loved the view of the mountains.

Christmas Stay
We thoroughly enjoyed the stay during Christmas week. The cabin was small and very cozy. Our two dogs loved it there they had a blast. We really had a hard time wanting to go into pigeon forge because the cabin was so cozy and comfortable. I recommend this highly. The Boyd’s

Perfect spot
This was the perfect spot to get away and enjoy Pigeon Forge. The cabin was clean and cozy, and was only a few miles from the Parkway. It was a nice quiet place to sit and enjoy coffee on the porch before heading into town. Tim was a great host and left clear and simple instructions.

Relaxing & Secluded
Roadways are tight but managed just fine with an Expedition, quiet mountain top cabin perfect for the two of us and our pups. Dollywood & Pigeon Forge about 15-20 minute drive only because of the back roads and having to drive slowly, would highly recommend and book again!

Wonderful Place! Perfect for us!
Our stay was great! It was the first time bringing our pet on vacation and this cabin was perfect for us. It was clean and just what we needed.

Wonderful weekend getaway
My husband and I booked this cabin for a long weekend. It was close enough to Pigeon Forge that we could drive and get dinner yet also far enough to be out in the mountains. This is also the first pet-friendly property we booked and we were immediately impressed with the bowls they left out and treats they provided. The property owner gave clear instructions on the check in and check out process which we always appreciate. Milo loved the outdoor area and would stay outside as long as he could

Quiet/Close proximity
We chose this cabin because of the fenced yard for our dog. The cabin was in a quiet location, yet it was less than 15min to Dollywood, and any other activity you could imagine (aquarium, miniature golf, etc). Views of the Smoky Mountains from the front covered porch.

Nestled at the top of a mountain with a picturesque view lies a quaint up to date modern cabin. With a home feel of comfort and warmth. My puppies and I enjoyed our stay with watching morning sunrises and beautiful sunsets. With a fenced yard and lovely patio equipped with a porch swing and rocking chairs. So perfect.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Kresica

Host profile image
As a lifelong business manager and executive, Tim Kresica has enjoyed success in the building products industry. As a native son of Chicago, IL, his education and career path eventually led him to opportunities in both Florida and North Carolina. In 2014, the majesty of the Great Smoky Mountains beckoned him to Tennessee where he now lives and works as Resident Manager of Havens on the Ridge in Pigeon Forge.
Tim has always founded his work ethic on a dedication to quality products and services, and fulfilling customer needs in an uplifting, positive way. With every undertaking and objective, he applies his belief that details are important.
Personally, Tim enjoys amateur photography….engages the great outdoors…..and embraces faith-based worship.

Why they chose this property

Eastern Tennessee's abundant beauty, tempo, and sense of community are enjoyable throughout four distinct seasons. Prompted by a lifelong affection for the Great Smoky Mountains, my search for solace led to a unique opportunity for developing an existing property into a mountain retreat for adults desiring tranquil and respite on a year-round basis. Havens on the Ridge offers both... while being ideally located a short distance from the majestic Smoky Mountains as well as the entertainment and adventures of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
The property was originally owned by the Blackburn family as their primary residence and boasts a "Gathering House" cabin for special occasions. Their family tree includes Michael Blackburn who achieved notoriety as the World's Greatest Sharpshooter. The property history sparked a special interest within me, and each day I'm thankful to now call Havens on the Ridge my home as caretaker.

What makes this property unique

Beyond the tranquility, privacy, and comfort of Havens on the Ridge, we strive to provide a "home-away-from-home" getaway that also offers an "away from it all" feeling at the same time. Having a Resident Manager onsite ensures any need or issue that might arise during your stay will be dealt with promptly.
