About this property

A new cabin only 1 mile from the heart of Gatlinburg!

Our new cabin, just completed in 2020, is conveniently located in the city limits of Gatlinburg. You will be in perfect proximity to all the action yet secluded enough to enjoy the privacy of the mountains. Relax on the spacious front porch as you take in the views of Anakeesta with Ober Gatlinburg and the Sky Lift in the distance. You will be surrounded by the breathtaking majesty of the Great Smoky Mountains.

Our cabin features 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths with beds to accommodate 10 people. 1 king, 1 queen, 2 full beds and 1 set of twin bunks in the game room.
There is ample parking in the driveway for 4 vehicles. Enjoy time with your family and friends in the game room as you shoot pool, play games or watch tv together. Spend some time on the upstairs balcony taking in the spectacular views of the mountains.

Our kitchen is fully equipped with all the essentials you need. You will find new stainless steel appliances and the basic small kitchen appliances necessary to allow you to utilize the kitchen to prepare meals. Additionally, there is a charcoal grill outside. You may especially like the coffee bar area in the kitchen.

In our living room, you can relax on the comfy sectional, which offers a recliner on each end. During the winter months, stay warm by the fireplace.

Not only is the inside space cozy and relaxing, but you will find the outdoor space is a perfect spot to spend your evenings making smores by the fire pit or sitting simply in the hot tub.

Time for Adventure is a great place to take in all that the Great Smoky Mountains has to offer. You may even catch a glimpse of the area wildlife - the bears seem to enjoy walking right up the road.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

The cabin was lovely and in a great location. Close to downtown Gatlinburg but far enough to have privacy. Very clean and comfortable. We saw multiple bears everyday at our cabin. One even scratched at the backdoor and looked in the window. This was our favorite visit to Gatlinburg. We will plan to come back soon.

The host was phenomenal to work with and very informative about what to look out for while we were there. The stay in the cabin was nice. We had 5 adults and 2 kids for our stay and we all fit very comfortably. My only real complaint is the beds are pretty hard and the couches were tough to operate and sometimes couldn't operate at all which, at the end of a long day in town, was a bummer to have to fight just for it to potentially not work. Location was awesome. We were a 5 minute drive from the heart of Gatlinburg while still being secluded. All in all a great trip.

Response from VrboOwner on Sep 13, 2026
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear your group had a comfortable stay, enjoyed the location, and appreciated being so close to downtown Gatlinburg while still having that secluded mountain feel. We certainly understand that everyone has a different preference when it comes to mattresses. We chose a firmer mattress for durability and support, and we continually receive positive feedback from guests about the comfort of our beds, though we completely understand that a firmer mattress isn’t everyone’s preference. We also really appreciate you letting us know about the difficulty with the reclining couches. These are newer couches with recliners on each end, so they should be operating properly. We have already contacted the furniture company, and have scheduled some to come out this week for a maintenance check to make sure everything is working as it should. Feedback like yours is very helpful because it gives us the opportunity to address things we may not otherwise know about. We truly appreciate our guests helping us continually improve, and we’re so glad that overall you had a great trip. Thank you for staying with us!

We had an amazing time at the cabin! We saw bears (adults, moms & cubs, teens) every day, starting from day 1! The cabin was perfect for my family's needs - we were able to hang out, watch tv, play pool, and just relax. It was nice to be close to downtown Gatlinburg but also feel secluded/in the woods. Honestly, we came for bears and were beyond thrilled with our daily sightings. Communication with Stephanie was quick and easy, and we appreciated the fast responses. Our family wholeheartedly recommends this cabin/these hosts. We're already looking forward to returning in the future!

Was a very nice cabin. The host was easy to contact and was eager to make sure we had everything we needed. They decorated the cabin for Christmas which was very nice of them. Saw bears the first evening we were there, and even more the last evening we were there. All in all was a great vacation and a great place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Shawn & Stephanie Foley

Host profile image

We live in the beautiful Lake Cumberland Area of South Central Kentucky. Gatlinburg has been a favorite vacation destination for our family. We enjoy adventure and we enjoy relaxing. The Great Smoky Mountains offer our family the best of both worlds.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property in October 2017 - almost a year after the horrible fire of 2016. All the property surrounding us was completely destroyed. Now, new and beautiful properties are beginning to be erected. We took great care and consideration in building our cabin. We have filled it with things that make our stay (and hopefully your stay) comfortable, cozy and fun. We invite you and your family to enjoy some adventure and make memories here at our cabin.

What makes this property unique

One of the things we love is our convenient location to downtown Gatlinburg. It's easy to access downtown without the hassle of a lengthy drive. Yet, we love that even though we're close to town, we feel secluded on the mountain. It's quiet and peaceful - and just what we love!
