The Pinnacle Lodge is a new cabin completed in February of 2018. We work to maintain this cabin as such. And we thank you for your assistance in this endeavor. Again we have another cabin that is more suited for larger parties 12-14 and we do allow events and parties at that cabin. Located very close by as well.
This spaciously designed cabin is situated such that all porches are private and face the Appalachian mountain range. The tremendous My Leconte takes center stage.
The choice lot is a private one as it is the second to the last cabin within this resort. Thus, minimal activity including but not limited to vehicular traffic as well as other guests..
The cabin sleeps 8 comfortably, having 3 large bedrooms with King-size beds. One of the many features unique to this cabin are the top-of-the-line Tempurpedic mattresses selected for each bedroom. See pics. Additionally, there are two large pull out sleepers located on both the main floor and game room floor. Each of the large bedrooms on the third floor provide privacy from the rest of the cabin, yet each is provided with a 40'' smart TV and a Blu-ray/DVD player. Each of the 3 bedrooms have large bathrooms glass shower doors and granite vanities. The bathrooms will have shower towels, hand towels and wash clothes as well as toilet products.
Extra linens are available. Please contact us prior to your stay if you know that you will need extra linens.
We do keep an inventory of the linens and appreciate your assistance.
The kitchen is well thought out with plenty of counter space as well as storage for the pots and pans, glass ware and other cooking items. The center island is a large area where one can prepare food. Three wooden stools decorate the island allowing for family and friends to gather while dinner is cooking.
The layout of this cabin is ideal. The three floor plan allows one family member to be sleeping, reading or watching a different movie on the third floor while others watch a movie on the main floor or cook and the children can be in the game room/theater on the first floor playing one of the many games, watching a movie in the theater or playing Xbox hooked up strategically in the theater. The cabin is incredibly well insulated and is very quiet throughout. Regardless of the various activities that may be taking place at the same time.
The den is situated catty corner to the kitchen and a 55'' Smart TV is located in the Den/Living room. The TV strategically situated so that one can watch tv while cooking etc. The den has a beautiful view of Mt. Leconte from every window and of course the porch on this floor opens out to a breathtaking view of the mountains in total. Where rocking chairs and a table are available for seating.
The dining table sits 8 -10 very comfortably and additional seating is available on the kitchen island.
Two large couches and a love seat adorn this den and there is plenty of room for all. The fire place is completed with river rock and has many different settings, etc.
Downstairs is a large Game/Theater Room. There is an Xbox 360 hooked up to this theater.
We have 4 controllers and a few games. Feel free to bring your own games again as ours are limited. It is quite an experience to play Xbox on a 100” screen with surround sound. Finally there is an additional queen pullout bed in the game room. The game room has its own 50” Smart Samsung tv as well. Visual from all areas of the room as it sits on an adjustable stand.
There is also a multicade arcade that has 60 different games from Frogger to Defender to Galaga and many more. The Black light air hockey table is a lot of fun. And can be played with or without the lights on. The pool table is situated perfectly in the center of the room and in front of the TV. So you can take in a football game while shooting pool looking right out at the gorgeous Smokey Mountains.
The washer and dryer can be found in the closet at the end of the games room.
PLEASE IF TOWELS OR SHEETS NEED TO BE WASHED DO NOT OVERLOAD THE WASHER OR DRYER. Whether clothing or towels this can ruin laundry quickly. The machines are for guests who want to wash a couple of items. They are not used for the cabin laundry. Or large loads.
Overloading the machines will cause snagging of your clothing and linens. It has happened to us on many occasions when guests have overloaded the machines. Thanks for your assistance here as well.
If you would like your beds changed during your stay please tell me which day. And this will be taken care of for you.
Located at the other end of the game room is a sitting area with a queen size pull out sofa. This is a very quiet spot to read in the mornings. However, this cabin has several spots where one can curl up and be very comfortable for sure.
Viewing the sun rising from one of the porches is quite a site. Folks pay money to climb up to and stay at the top of mount leconte so they will be able to have this view. It is so quiet sitting on the porch with a cup of tea or coffee waiting for the sunrise.
The cabin is fully stocked with all you need to feel at home. The beds and bathrooms will have linens, towels and wash clothes. And per above a stocked kitchen. Including a crock pot, pots and pans, 2 coffee pots(a Keurig and mr coffee), toaster, blender, utensils, glass ware, mugs, cooking equipment for the grill, cleaning products and much more.
This is an executive family cabin. We do not allow parties that involve drinking, loud music and the other issues associated with ‘partying.’ We have another cabin available for that purpose.
Again this is done for consistency sake.
The Pinnacle Lodge has a private security system that has been hard wired and is monitored by ADT 24/7. The system includes window and door alarms as well as motion detectors. And we welcome the use of the alarm of course throughout your stay. Whether home or away your family will be safe and secure. Gatlinburg police are awesome and can be at the cabin within minutes. The door and alarm codes are changed upon checkout.
PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME CABINS ARE NOT FULLY STOCKED. HOWEVER THIS CABIN IS FULLY STOCKED AND INVENTORIED BETWEEN GUESTS. This allows us not only the ability to let guests know immediately if something is missing but also to insure all guests will know what to expect upon arrival. All you need are groceries and personal belongings.
I don’t want you to need anything except the items that you have brought with you. And whatever you bring in the way of grocery items.
We ask that if you need anything during your stay please shoot us a text at 813 294-4692. We are Gatlinburg residents and manage our own property.
We appreciate your booking very much and will do all we can to make your stay incredible.
Again we are local residents, manage our own property and therefore you should expect a next level cabin and vacation.
Finally we appreciate your taking care of the cabin as if it were your home throughout your stay.
If there is anything that I should do to improve such please don’t hesitate to let me know as I am always working to make our home feel like yours.
Very Sincerely,
Ms Kathy Shields
