Perfect place to find peace and quiet!
If you want to be away from the noise/crowds of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, then the lake escape is what you want. It is only 30 min. from the main road of shops and restaurants. The cabin was very clean with everything I needed. The back porch would be a perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying the nature around you. The kitchen had everything I needed plus more. The modern bathroom was very nice and stocked with plenty of large, comfy towels. I did not use the hot tub or the lake itself because of the cold weather. There was a fire ban, so the fire pit was out of the question. But, I could imagine spending a great time with friends or family around the quaint fire pit. If you own a truck or SUV, this place would be ideal for your getaway. If not, be aware that the last mile before getting to the cabin might be a little troublesome for a car. The road goes down to a small, single lane that is only paved for half of the last mile. The remainder of the way is gravel road with some pretty large ruts that may cause issues for a small car. My Subaru SUV handled it just fine, but I did not allow my parents (who were supposed to stay with me) to try it in their Camry. They would have gotten stuck or had damage underneath their car for sure. I had them stay with another family member in a different cabin, but I hate that they missed out on the wonderful peace and quiet of the lake escape cabin. I heard nothing from outside at any time during my visit. No cars, people, or noise.
