Apple-achia is a genuine log cabin decorated in an apple theme and pronounced like the mountains where it is located just outside Pigeon Forge, Tennessee overlooking the Smoky Mountains. Designed as a quiet, peaceful getaway where you can relax and refresh your spirit.
You'll enjoy the wrap-around porch with its Amish rockers, swing and relaxing hot tub. The cozy gas fireplace in winter or the charcoal grill and picnic table in summer will draw you into its charm. The pool table, air hockey, book and movie library, over 140 satellite TV channels plus XM satellite radio and movie channels will help you unwind. The huge log king bed in the loft area or the queen bed in the lower bedroom welcome you at the end of the day.
All the excitement you may want is close by in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Dollywood. Most furnishings are Amish built for us, and the cabin is decorated in country decor, cozy and comfortable. Apple-achia is a fully furnished home; all you bring is your food to prepare in the well equipped kitchen. Water quality is a big concern these days and Apple-achia has mountain well water with a state-of-the-art filtration system for pure, sparking clear water.
Think of having your morning coffee on the large porch while listening to the birds in the wooded surroundings and looking out over the Smoky Mountains stretched out before you. Spend a special holiday, vacation, anniversary, honeymoon or just a getaway. You'll want to come back again and again.

Although the drive was steep, we absolutely had a great stay. When we build our house, we'll probably use some of the same building design. The owners were very nice and made our stay feel like we were at home.
Owner response:We receive excellent comments from nearly every guest in Apple-achia. This cabin is set up to provide a peaceful, quiet getaway for couples and small families and even their pets. With the nice mountain view, the wooded acreage, privacy, security, and the immaculate decor make this a place where memories are made and where guests return again and again. Within minutes of all attractions it is ideally located and easily accessible. By comparison with most mountain cabins the drive is not really excessively steep and is paved. When you arrive a welcome gift awaits you. You'll think you are the first to stay there. Deluxe linens, thick towels, Amish built furnishings and the attention to details will make you feel at home immediately.
Recommended for:Sightseeing, families with young children.

Apple-achia is close to everything with good access to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, yet feels secluded. The photos do a good job, but much nicer in person. Very clean, very well equipped. Very comfortable stay. Enjoyed watching the squirrels and birds from the porch rockers while drinking a cup of coffee and reading. Quite relaxing. and exactly what we needed. The owners are an added bonus! We will definitely stay here again. We recommend the Applewood Farmhouse for breakfast and Bennett's BBQ for some great smoked BBQ.

This was my first time at the cabin and I would go back again! The location was perfect, just far enough away from the hustle and bustle to feel the mountain charm but close enough to hop on the bike and go see everything. Gordon and Betty were right there replying to my never ending questions via email and/or telephone. The cabin itself was cozy, comfy and beautiful. Clean and all the basic necessities were there for our use. Thank you again for a wonderful stay. I hope we can make it back again sometime SOON! Cheers, Shel

We spent a weekend with my parents at this lovely cabin. Even though the weather prohibited us from enjoying the wonderful rockers on the front porch, we did enjoy watching a snow shower and wild turkeys while sitting by the fire. The kitchen is well equipped. A thoughtful gift basket was waiting for us when we arrived. The owner cheerfully answered any of our questions as we planned our trip. This weekend was focused on my parent's likes so our location was perfect to visit The Applebarn Restaurant and Cades Cove.

This cabin was a perfect getaway for me and my family. Its very private w/ an awesome wrap around porch. About 15 min. from Pigeon Forge ect... but a nice drive to get there and to Gatlinburg. Very scenic. Nice hot tub and loft that the kids loved. Very clean! Owners were super nice and helpful when we needed it. Loved Cades Cove...we saw a bear!! Would recommend this for families or couples!!! Enjoy :)

We stayed at this property for a long weekend and had a wonderful time. The owners were very nice and the cabin was comfortable and well maintained with all the amenities. I very much enjoyed the Country charm of the interior and our small dog loved sniffin' around outside. The location is close enough to the attractions but secluded enough to allow peace and quiet. We plan to use this property again. Thanks so much, we left relaxed and renewed.
