Escape From Reality - Deluxe 7 person hot tub and large wrap around deck

The “to dream about” kitchen is complete with all stainless steel appliances, a huge island, and granite throughout the cabin. All rooms are huge in this cabin, including 2 spacious master bathrooms with stone dual showers. This cabin sleeps 12 people with a King, 2 Queen beds and 3 Queen sofa beds. Many guests have commented on how comfortable the beds are. There are 5 smart HD TVs, one in each bedroom, the game room and a 4K TV in the great room.

The large deck includes a swing set, a 9 foot picnic table with end seats and a gas grill. A unique mountain amenity is that this cabin has clean city water. Note that all inside surfaces are wiped down with a disinfectant after each stay. Child friendly with games and a high chair.

The game room includes a new Foosball game, pool table, dart board, a large fireplace, and corn hole on the deck. After competing, relax in the new 7 person deluxe hot tub, complete with a waterfall jet and watch the amazing wildlife nearby. My favorite thing to do is sit on the deck and listen to the calming sound of strong rapids of a stream right behind the property.

Mini Spring Break

We had an amazing Mini Vacation with our Family! The property is tucked back on a mountaintop with great views and we were provided with everything we needed. We were even entertained by a mama bear and her 3 cubs while we were there :) We will be making a trip back in the near future! Highly Recommend!

Excellent stay

What a great property to get away! This was our 1st time to the Smokey Mountains and we did not want to leave. The drive up the mountain was a bit intimidating but we tackled with no problems! We had one small issue with the master shower draining, but the property manager jumped right on it and had it fixed by the time we returned from our adventures the next day. We could not have asked for more!

Great cabin

This cabin was gorgeous. It was perfect for our family of 5 getaway. Upon pulling onto the road the cabin is on we were greeted by a momma bear and her 2 cubs! Check in was seamless. The cabin has everything you need. The kitchen was well stocked. I would only recommend adding some glass cookware that is microwavable such as corningware as the stove gets full when making a big meal. We arrived about 2 weeks after Hurricane Helene and the area was under a boil water advisory. John was great at giving us updates and provided gallons of drinking water. There were also empty 5-gallon buckets which we filled with water just in case the water was shut off for more repair work while we were there. Thankfully, the advisory was lifted just a couple days after arrival. We were very impressed with the cleanliness of the cabin and loved the overall layout. The cabin is a little loud due to its openness and all wood floors (which were gorgeous!) We enjoyed the cornhole on the deck on the nice days. The owner was quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Check out was easy and there wasn't a mile long list of check out instructions as there are with other properties we have used. The kids enjoyed playing pool, darts, and the hot tub. I would recommend bringing your own extra plastic dart tips as we could not find any in the Gatlinburg area. The showers on the main and third level are amazing. The beds were very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Oct 2024 post hurricane vacation

Our stay was awesome. A lot of anxiety a week after the hurricane but John was the best host in keeping us informed about water issues after the hurricane and made extra accommodations for us to meet our needs. He provided a large supply of bottled water for us that he didn’t have to do. It was so greatly appreciated. In the end water was no issue. The cabin is beautiful and was perfect for us-the layout provided great common areas along with privacy. All the extra incidentals provided were a bonus! Hot tub great! Beds very comfortable. Location was away from the business of tourism but peaceful and not too far to get into Gatlinburg regularly. We highly recommend the cabin and will definitely be back. We saw several bear and the aurora borealis. Beautiful!! The host is the best we’ve had. Thank you John!

Beautiful cabin in the woods

We loved this property. The wrap around deck with the checkerboard was my favorite space! My kids all loved the game room. This was far enough away from the tourism crowds but close enough to enjoy Gatlinburg. We saw bears 4 out of our 8 days here. We would definitely recommend this property to friends and family.

The Perfect Stay

This was for a last minute trip to go watch the Eclipse with the family. I was just looking for a place to sleep between hikes and waterfall adventures. The home was so beautiful that we found ourselves looking forward to getting back to the cabin after a long day of hiking. The views were amazing and we spent a lot of time out on the decks.The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could possible need. i was a little worried about the fact that this was in a "development" but being that the cabin was at the top of the mountain it was very secluded. We saw bears ever day and night . they do keep their distance so as long as you keep yours they will continue on. The beds were great . You could tell that this place has an owner who uses it on occasion and cares about having everything available for his family and yours. the check in was a breeze. No problems or concerns at all . The owner was always a text away with very quick responses. We used to rent in Helen, Georgia every summer but this amazing area and cabin have convinced me that the extra few hours drive from Florida is well worth it. Can't wait to come back.
