I started off alone in the one of the other cabins and my husband joined me and we extended our stay to the Raven's Nest and it was just fantastic! It was chilly by the time we made it to the second cabin and the fire place was a great addition. It ran out if propane at some point which was ok because it did the job beforehand and then without asking maintenance came around while we were out exploring the day away and refilled it! Please take the leap and rent from them! This was just a great time and we literally reconnected and saved our marriage because of this place and the peace and privacy! Don't forget the peace pagoda at the top of the mountain!!

Beautiful, peaceful and cozy. Enjoyed our stay very much!
We wanted something that was seemingly secluded away from the hustle and bustle of the busy city, and this met those expectations.
It was absolutely perfect for myself and my significant other. We were able to reset our minds, bodies and souls!
The stairs are steep to the upper loft however, with caution they are managable. Hottub was perfect and the front porch allowed us to enjoy the sunsets.
We loved the view from the front porch. Looking out over the fall foliage was amazing. The place was nice too, but the views and remoteness were the best. And of course, the hot tub was nice and clean!
Our stay was wonderful. The cabin was exactly what we were looking for. The views were picture perfect. The hot tub was also perfect. We will definitely stay again!
We loved it! The cabin was well maintained and clean (it is a true log cabin). We spent hours reading and looking at the beautiful view. The hot tub was great. We are both 60 and had no problem climbing the narrow stairs to the lofted bedroom. The hot tub was very nice, and I can’t say enough great things about the staff. Very friendly and helpful.
Great cabin. Very nice atmosphere. Owners were super nice and gave us a tour of the whole property! Very dog friendly and it’s very hidden and peaceful! I would definitely recommend!

Not what you think, description is deceiving
We arrived 25 minutes before checking. We walked up to the door with the key already in the lock. No one was around so we brought our luggage in. As we come out a lady came up to the door saying that she had a few more things to get done. I did advisor that looked like the bed was made upstairs so someone could have already cleaned. She asked if we have bath towels there was only two in there she gave me more and asked if there was a bath mat on the floor which there was. After she left we looked at the bathroom and the bed and noticed that they had not been cleaned the linens were dirty from the people before but they must have made up the bed before they left. I noticed there wasn't a girl so before the lady left I did ask for a grill. We never got one on our stay. We were not able to use the hot tub as we could not take the top fully off of it. There was no where to place it. There should definitely be a warning on the road up to the cabin, it's not the best of terrain. The walls definitely need to be dusted from the fans and the AC unit needs to be cleaned. Not much of a parking spot but we were able to manage. Also they say there is a walking trail there but there is no walking trail, it is very short-lived. It is a cute cabin but where the location is and the uncleanessness of the place we would not visit again.

Dinghy and old
The property needs cleaned and a lot of TLC. The sheets and pillows are so old it was disgusting. We had to go buy sheets and pillows. The shower door had mold and they were falling out of the track. The towels and wash cloths were very old also and stained. The hot tb cover is all torn and falling apart. Cushions on the porch rocking chairs were stained and dirty. The pictures on lune must have been taken several years ago.
This cabin was perfect for me and my wife. Never had a cabin before but enjoyed every minute of this one. Nice and cozy in the mountains with a beautiful view
Check in was easy. Beautiful views. Hot tub was very relaxing. Wish cabin could have been a bit bigger, but overall ok. Enjoyed our stay. Would recommend for a couple only. Not for anyone up in age, due to having to climb a ladder to get to the bed in loft. Maintenance man was very helpful when we accidentally locked ourselves out.
We liked being away from commercial and busy side of Smoky Mtns. and this was a nice location near Newport, Tn and the Cosby Park with hiking and waterfalls. It's the farthest east in the Smokies. Ten minutes away in Newport was all the dining and grocery you need. Owner-Mgt is nearby and ready to assist. Hot tub worked great, views were wonderful, and place was good and clean. We did drive over to the Arts & Crafts Village loop for the day and it was a scenic 30 plus minute drive. Don't miss the Foothills Parkway overlooks nearby.

No privacy
The cabin was nice. The owner or whoever I talked too said we could check in at 1pm instead of 4pm. When we got there we could not check in the cabin until 330. The cleaning people were there. Owner did not notify us about that. And also during the day during our stay maintenance was sitting in front of the cabin and talking. So NO privacy at all. Alot of traffic on that small dangerous road. Again the cabin was nice but VERY pricey.
Had a great experience staying at the Ravens nest with my wife for a few nights. Property was clean and we'll maintained, had everything we needed. Thanks!
Check in was easy! The cabin is super clean, nice quiet location and the views at sunset are gorgeous 😍 I'd definitely recommend this cabin, but I will say if you have any trouble walking or are disabled the steps to the loft bedroom will definitely be a challenge but other than that it was great!

Not private
Good 50 minute drive to Gatlinburg and or piegon forge. Steps very steep to climb to get to loft. Not really private. It's a road to more cabins in front of the cabin. Small spot to park a car off of drive. Drive wave leading back to cabin needs some gravel. Very uneven ground. Electric tape on upstairs lamp. Some of the cook ware needs thrown away. Coating was peeling off. Despite cleaning fee there was Dead bugs on window sill along with some trash left behind from the previous renter.
Perfect cabin. Everything we wanted and more. Great location, beautiful views, private and quiet, and super cozy. Thank you💗

Please allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Sam and Tammy ; We ourselves were once visitors to The Great Smoky Mountains. Sam is a native Swiss/German and had always the idea to offer and operate a “back to the basics” or Vacation retreat “holiday on a family owned and operated Farm”. We traveled all over the US to see where we want to settle. It took only one visit to realize that this is where we wanted to live, work and raise our children. We went back and forward , sold our home/company and moved to what we think is a most extraordinary place. We are extremely proud to own and operate Stuetz Mountain Retreat, where you will receive top notch personal attention to make your stay a memorable one.
Each of the cabins we build from a kit or from scratch. All measures have been taken to provide all the comforts of home to make your stay as comfortable and authentic as possible. Click on the Cabins tab and take a tour of the available cabins. Each cabin has a list of amenities sure to please any vacationer and adventure seeker. We hope you enjoy The Great Smoky Mountains and this peace of paradise alone or with your family as much as we have.
In our life, it has been clear that nothing comes easily. We are happy that we took the hard road in many areas to develop and maintain our land, knowing that this efforts will eventually produce better results. Since we are family owned and operated we also maintain a self-sustainable lifestyle. Instead of using disposable products constantly, Sam and Tammy aims to use recyclable and reusable alternatives, even though they often require more effort. Enjoy your stay with us!
