Welcome to Friar’s Fifth, a charming log cabin nestled on Ski Mountain in Gatlinburg, TN. This two-bedroom vacation rental property oozes Appalachian charm, and it boasts convenience to downtown Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

The living area offers an open-concept plan, and tall ceilings make the already spacious room feel open and airy. Warm wood tones bring a cozy feel to this cabin, and lovely finishes make it truly feel like home. The gathering area features a sofa and armchairs that surround a fireplace and a large TV. A multi-cade arcade table adds to the charm, offering the perfect place to perch for some friendly competition.

The adjacent dining area offers seating for four, and a fully equipped kitchen lies just beyond, providing the perfect place to enjoy home-cooked meals (just bring groceries). A king bedroom suite is also available on the main level, and its bathroom is home to a shower/tub combo.

Outside, the deck is shrouded in the lush greenery of the Smokies. It’s home to rocking chairs and a large hot tub, perfect for soaking away your stress at the end of a day out and about.

Upstairs, guests will find a second king bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, complete with a shower/tub combo. A separate jetted jacuzzi tub is also located upstairs, adding to the home’s long list of amenities.

Our week at Friar’s Fifth

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was very clean. We liked the location and really enjoyed the front porch rocking chairs. The beds were comfortable . Our only suggestion would be better living room furniture. The couch was very uncomfortable. The chairs weren’t much better. The living room tv was too complicated to use.We saw a mother bear and 2 cubs. They tried to get into our suburban but it was locked.

Smoky mountain house

The house was nice and comfortable. The photo didn’t match what the house actually looked like. Other than that great stay :)
