About this property

Lake Front Cabin Quiet Cove Private Dock nr Smoky Mtn dates available

This log cabin is located on beautiful Douglas Lake and close to the Great Smoky Mountains. We are conveniently located 6 miles off the interstate. This cabin is ideal for couples or active families that enjoy the water and the mountains. This cabin has seasonal water early April to late Sept. depending on rainfall. We have a floating dock as long as we have water in the cove.

New pergola deck near the water with picnic table and adirondack chairs. New walkway from the lower deck transitions the hill to the pergola. Also, newly added firepit!

The main bedroom has a king size memory foam mattress, the 2nd bedroom has a queen and the 3rd has two XL twins. The cabin is two levels with the 3rd bedroom, family room, laundry room and one bath on the lower level.

The upscale kitchen comes fully stocked. The dining table has a self-storing leaf that effortlessly converts the table to seating for eight. The spacious family room on the lower level has a 65" smart TV, foosball table and a gas fireplace. The upstairs living room also has a 55" flat screen TV and wood burning stove. The cabin has a gas grill, two decks with one covered and screened and another that is covered in the front.

We have a private dock and there are ski boat, jet ski, pontoon boat, kayak, and paddle board rentals available nearby on the lake. There is a public boat launch 4 minutes from the cabin. The cove offers protection from winds and storms, but gives easy access to the main channel.

The cabin has a front loading washer and dryer. Bath towels, wash cloths and bed linens are provided. Please BRING your own BEACH TOWELS for the lake.

We have tried to make it easy for you so we have provided things like coffee & filters, dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, and toilet paper. Also provided are basic kitchen items such as zip lock bags, aluminum foil, plastic wrap, paper towels, and garbage bags.

We have installed combination deadbolts on both levels to make it easy and hassle free for you to checkin at your convenience. This also eliminates the need for everyone in your party to have a key.

The cabin has cable TV and wifi/internet.

We do want you to know that the cabin is two levels and the driveway is on the lower level. There is space for a vehicle to park just off the road on the upper level to make loading and unloading easier.

This property is conveniently located close to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Cades Cove. There are many activities including white water rafting, hiking, mountain biking, zip lines, Dollywood, Dixie Stampede, Splash Country, Tanger Outlet Mall, The Island, The Titanic Museum, laser tag, miniature golf, go carts, Forbidden Caverns underground cave and many more. Of course that's only if you decide you can leave the beauty of the lake for a little while.

Great Stay on the Lake

We were taking our oldest son to the lake for his 14th birthday for fishing and nearby Pigeon Forge attractions. The house was very clean and organized upon our arrival. Bill and Sonja were very informative and communicated very well! We loved the floor plan and the screened in porches both top and bottom. Easy access to the dock and lake made easy work for fishing and utilizing the canoe! Many thanks for a great weekend. Will definitely be back

Family Vacation

This property was perfect for our family. It is close to town to get supplies and groceries. It is also close to the marina to rent boats. We love to swim and water access was easier than many properties on the lake. The owners were friendly and attentive. We plan on staying here again.

Great Place to stay

Overall the stay was exactly as we hoped. Close enough to get to the busy areas in 30 min of driving but far enough away to not be stuck in traffic everywhere you went. We stayed in Dec and they drain the lake so lake area is completely dry during this time of the year. Everything worked as expected and my son loved his "Apartment" which was really the basement where one of the bedrooms and bathrooms is.

I think the property would be a lot more fun in the summer, we went in November and it was nice and quiet, but I imagine the summer would be both fun and relaxing because of the lake.

Relaxation with Beautiful Views!

Our stay was fantastic. The two of us decided on a last minute trip for labor day weekend. We were lucky to have found the perfect place. The house was very clean and was well stocked with anything we needed! We stayed for 3 nights and only ate out one time. We cooked and grilled and had no desire to leave as it was peaceful and beautiful. We kayaked and used the canoe provided by the owners! Douglas lake is beautiful, with many coves to explore. We will definitely return!

The best stay ever!!!!!

We felt welcomed from the moment we opened the front door. We had read the reviews, and were expecting a great place. But, all the reviews paled in comparison to what we experienced. All the little details that went along with this house made it a home. The thoughtful decor, and all the amenities made us want for nothing. It seemed as if everything we needed was right here within the cabin. From the well stocked kitchen and rooms, to the little extras: like the games, fire pit, grill, dock, and chairs & tables, which made our time blissful, while living on lake time. The views were incredible from every location in and outside the house. We made sure to enjoy them all each day from the many available decks strategically located around the cabin. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and making our honeymoon so wonderfully special! Tony & Diana Ages 69 & 65

We enjoyed our stay. The cabin was clean and nice. The owners went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The owners answered all questions with prompt responses and gave us lots of suggestions such as where to put our boat in and restaurants that you could get to by water. Lake was great and our kids enjoyed skiing and tubing. Would highly recommend

First Visit to Douglas Lake

This log cabin on Douglas Lake could not have been more perfect for our family vacation. The cabin was spacious, comfortable, and immaculately clean. Every need has been considered. The outdoor spaces were relaxing and fun, even with some rain during our stay. We saw lots of wildlife and loved taking canoe rides on the lake. Our son loved fishing in the cove. The property owners were fantastic to work with and so welcoming. We would not have a changed a thing! I would give more than 5 Stars!

Relaxing retreat at the end of the day

My wife, mother-in-law and I rented the property for a place to stay while here for a family event. The cabin was clean, comfortable, and had all the amenities you would want for a relaxing getaway. The property is a about 35 - 40 minutes from the hustle and bustle that is Gatlinburg / Pigeon Forge. So it’s close enough to head out and spend the day there or just stay at the cabin and enjoy the peace and quiet. Either way it was an enjoyable visit and we plan on renting the unit again in the future.

Douglas Lake Log Cabin

A great place to stay. The location with its floating dock on the lake was perfect. The neighborhood was great and well kept. The home itself was very, very clean...wish my own house was as clean. The decor was very nice and they had everything there for use. Douglas lake is situated close to hiking, whitewater rafting, fishing, kayaking, distilleries, etc. Always something to do within a short drive. Lots of restaurants in Sevierville and Dandridge. Oh, and the owners were communicative and responsive to any questions we had.

About the host

Hosted by Bill and Sonja Von Ohlen

Host profile image
We both grew up spending many weekends at the lake, Sonja on this lake just around the corner and Bill on a lake in WI. We have continued this tradition with our own kids and wanted to be able to share this wonderful experience with others. We know you will enjoy all the activity this lake and the area have to offer as well as the peaceful serenity of the evening sunsets.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because we have spent the last 25 years of weekends, holidays and summers at a cabin very close to this one. We knew for years that we would one day buy a rental property close by and this became available. We know this lake and this area so it was a perfect choice.

This property has it's own private dock and is close to several public boat launches.
