Load and start the dishwasher

Check-out is by 10 AM. Please start the dishwasher and double-check the cabin for any personal items.

Our family enjoyed this spacious cabin and location. The cabin was well kept, clean, and felt like a home. The only negatives were the small size of the televisions in the bedrooms, and that we were not able to access any streaming apps on them.

Why they chose this property

One of the best things about staying at Cardinal’s Nest is having so many different places to explore. Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Great Smoky Mountains each have their own personality.

Explore Gatlinburg: Walk downtown, pop into candy shops, browse local stores, grab a bite to eat, and enjoy all the fun along the Parkway. Just outside downtown, explore the Great Smoky Arts & Crafts Community, where local artisans create pottery, paintings, woodwork, jewelry, leather goods, candles, and other handmade treasures.

Discover Sevierville: Spend some time exploring local shops, antique stores, boutiques, and places like The Apple Barn. Downtown Sevierville is also fun for a casual stroll and a photo with the Dolly Parton statue.

Play in Pigeon Forge: This is where you can really pack in the family fun. Dollywood, The Island, shows, mini golf, go-karts, arcades, dinner attractions, and plenty of places to eat can easily fill an entire day.

Escape Into the Smokies: When you are ready for a change of pace, head into Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Hike to a waterfall, look for wildlife, take a scenic drive, pack a picnic, or simply find a beautiful spot and enjoy the mountains.

Whether your perfect day means handmade crafts, mountain trails, family attractions, shopping, or discovering a little place you did not plan on finding, there is always something new to explore around Cardinal’s Nest.
