If you crave a private haven for your family and friends, then Apple Dumpling is for you! This gorgeous log home, just minutes from the heart of Pigeon Forge, offers a true Smoky Mountain experience with nature all around you. Soak in the fresh mountain air from your hot tub on the deck, or relax in the indoor whirlpool tub. Enjoy the mountain scenery (with no other cabins in view) while grilling out on the deck.

A perfect cabin for families or couples. It has a large yard surrounded by mature pines and hardwoods, a regulation pool table, 3 satellite TVs(that also include the Knoxville channels), queen size beds in each bedroom and 2 twin beds in the loft.

Apple Dumpling is nestled on a ridge, above Walden's Creek, surrounded by forests and mountains that rise more than 1000 feet. It is far enough "out in the country" to hear the roosters crow and the Whip-poor-wills whistle, yet only minutes from the heart of Pigeon Forge.

Tastefully decorated with an American Apple "Pie"triotic touch...Apple Dumpling will have you dreaming about the Smokies for years to come!

Year Purchased: 2001

Why the Owner Chose Pigeon Forge

We've lived in New York, Arkansas, California, Florida and Indiana, and have traveled extensively - including more than 50 trips to the Smokies. We agree with Dolly - there's no place like our Tennessee mountain home.
When we purchased Apple Dumpling, we looked at nearly 50 cabins, new and not-so-new, from Cobbly Nob and Ski Mountain to Sky Harbor and Wears Valley. However, with Apple Dumpling, it was love at first sight. We loved the unspoiled mountains surrounding Walden's Creek; the privacy of Apple Dumpling Ridge; and the simple beauty of Apple Dumpling cabin. Apple Dumpling is our home away from home and we visit it 5-6 times each year. No matter what the season, the mountains are always beautiful and there are always more things to do than there is time to do them.

The Unique Benefits at this Log Home

Nearly every guest that we've had has written very nice comments in our guest book, and everyone seems to mention different things that were special to them. Everyone loves the location, surrounding natural beauty, and privacy. The hot tub, pool table, table games, DVD's, etc., make for great family experiences.

    • We loved it, my family said it was the best vacation ever. The place is beautiful, it makes you feel so relaxed and comfortable the moment you arrive. We stayed a week and hated to leave.

    • My husband, son, daughter-in-law, grandson, dog and myself stayed at the Apple Dumpling over Memorial Day weekend. It was just far enough away to have the peace, quiet, and seclusion we enjoy, yet close enough to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Great Smoky Mountain National Park that all were an easy trip. The cabin is beautifully decorated and felt like a home away from home. Dennis and Bonnye were very helpful and made us feel even more welcomed. We look forward to using their cabin again in the future.

    • We stayed at Apple Dumpling from 5/11- 5/16 of this year. We absolutely LOVED this cabin. There was plenty of room for our family, plus our dog. The pool table and hot tub were a hit with everyone, and the cabin is located just far enough away from downtown pigeon forge, to really feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. Thank you so much, we will definitely be back!

    • We spent MLK, Jr weekend at the cabin with three other couples. It was an adult weekend, and a WONDERFUL one at that! Apple Dumpling is the perfect getaway with plenty of opportunities to rest, relax and feel pampered. This was our 2nd year in a row to stay there. We love the hot tub, pool table, games and comfy furniture!! It's very clean and perfectly kept. The cabin is perfect with a full kitchen because we never had to leave. However, it is so close to Cumberland Gap that we just had to spend some time at the outlet mall! We absolutely loved our getaway to Apple Dumpling and can't wait to do it again next year!!

    • We have visited Apple Dumpling numerous times with and without children. Our most recent visit was this past January 2009. This past time we went with 3 other couples and left the kids behind. We had a great time, as always. We turned on the gas fire during cold evenings, played some pool and relaxed in the hot tub with some wine. On Saturday the gals hit the outlet malls for the day while the men hiked in the Smoky Mountains. Sometimes we eat out at one of the restaurants in Pigeon Forge, but our best meals are grilling steaks that the cabin with the football game on in the background. Nothing is lacking and the cabin has always been very clean. We have much privacy and it feels like we are safely secluded in the middle of the woods. We look forward to more good times!

    • We, myself, my son, my daughter in law, my grandson and my sons mother in law stayed at your wonderful "Apple Dumpling" cabin from 4/3/09 to 4/10/09. We loved every minute we were there. In one weeks time we have all 4 seasons. We had rain, shine, sleet and snow!!! The cabin was very comfortable and located just far enough away from town for some peace and quite. We "Thank You" for allowing us to stay in such a great place. We will be back!!

    • Bonnye and Dennis, Thanks so much for sharing your cabin with us, especially on such short notice. Our evacuation for Hurricane Gustave was much more tolerable because we had such a wonderful place to stay. Apple Dumpling is a delightful cabin, secluded and quiet - just what we needed!! The cabin was clean, neat, beautifully decorated, and felt like home when we arrived! Thanks again for your hospitality and hope to return to Apple Dumpling soon (under much different circumstances)!!

    • You couldn't ask for a better place to stay for a Mountain vacation. The home is very comfortable with many games and movies to keep the little ones entertained. The kids probably played 50 games of pool in the five days that we were there. The beds were very comfortable, everyone sleep well. Many a good meal was cooked in the fully equiped kitchen during our stay. The home is very close to every thing (20 minutes from Pidgeon Forge) and the drive to the cabins is an easy and pretty drive. We are planning on coming back again next year. Mike, Emily, Frank, Dustin, Niki, and Jack. (Tampa, FL.

    • How do you make four women (all sisters) happy? Send them to the beautiful Smoky Mountains to stay in the lovely Apple Dumpling cabin. My sisters and I thoroughly enjoyed our fantastic weekend together enjoying marathon shopping, stuffing ourselves at the great restaurants in Pigeon Forge, namely The Old Mill Restaurant and Mel's Diner, then spending recoup time at the cabin. Three of us girls are local from the Maryville and Knoxville area and one sister is from Texas. We rent a cabin when she comes home for a visit, and we will certainly rent this cabin again. We created wonderful memories at the Apple Dumpling - and it will forever be a part of our memories as sisters and friends. The words satisfactory, or even good, cannot be used to describe our stay at The Apple Dumpling cabin. It was nothing short of fantastic! Dennis & Bonnye Feiock are to be complimented on their attention to extras...the movies, music, decor, kitchen utensils and appliances, great beds, and an abundance of light switches! Finally, when we left we had them memorized! The rooms were beautiful, the beds were exceptionally comfortable! We were overwhelmed at what an awesome home the Feiocks have created! Plus, the weather was perfect. I would gladly stay there again and look anxiously for the opportunity to do so again! Thanks again for making your beautiful home available to the public!
