The cabin is very nice and spacious for our family of 6. Good location and not too far off the main road which is nice. We used the community pool many times and also the onsite hot tub daily. We would choose this cabin again if we were to return. Wears valley is a quieter area as well making it feel like a true cabin/mountain experience. Many bears! Keep your car doors locked! They know how to get in!

Cabin was very clean on on a mountain hillside. Loved seeing the black bears from the cabin. The cabin was in close distance to Pigeon forge, Gatlinburg and the great smoky mountain national park. Communication with the host was a breeze and he replied back quickly. The wife and I really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin in Wears Valley! The location was perfect for our family—close enough to Pigeon Forge and Dollywood to be convenient, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and beauty of the mountains. We especially appreciated the easy access to some of the less crowded entrances to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.The cabin was very comfortable and had plenty to keep everyone entertained. Our kids loved making s’mores around the fire pit, relaxing in the hot tub, and spending time in the game room playing the arcade games. My wife and I particularly enjoyed sitting on the porch each morning and evening, taking in the scenery and quiet surroundings.One of the highlights of our trip was watching a family of black bears walk right by the cabin—an unforgettable Smoky Mountain experience!The owner was responsive and easy to work with throughout the process, and we felt the cabin was an excellent value for everything it offered. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to other families visiting the area.

We come to the mountains at least once a year for a vacation but this is the first time staying at this cabin. It’s about 10 miles out down wears valley rd. away from the hustle and bustle of pigeon forge. The road up is paved and large enough for 2 lanes. The cabin is equipped with everything you need. I was sick the whole week so we spent a lot of time at the cabin. I’ve stayed at lots of cabins but this one was stocked with several card games, board games, dominoes, puzzles we never got bored. They have an old arcade game with several games on it, fun for kids and adults. The pool table was phenomaemal. The whole downstairs is full of fun and games with plenty of seating and a small fridge and microwave. The 2 back porches have rockers and you really feel secluded from everyone else. My favorite seats were the 2 hammock swings. The hot tub has lights around it and very relaxing. We stayed in July and had a couple of cool nights so we were able to enjoy the gas fire pit. Our last night there we were sitting at the fire pit when a bear came out of the woods and came right up to the cabin. Of course we went inside and watched but he sat down on the roadway and entertained us for a while. This cabin was just perfect and the host was the best host I’ve ever had. He frequently checked in with us just to make sure everything was ok and ask if we have any questions about anything in the area. I have nothing negative to say about this cabin. 10/10

Thank you for the amazing review, Missy! We're sorry you weren't feeling well, but we're so glad the cabin made for a relaxing and fun stay. It sounds like you got to enjoy everything from the game room and hot tub to the hammock swings and even a memorable bear sighting! Your kind words mean so much, and we'd love to host you again on your next Smoky Mountain vacation.

The cabin was beautiful! The setup was extremely suitable for the 4 of us. Two bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs and a huge bedroom and bathroom downstairs with a game room for our teenager. It was very clean and exactly what was listed on VRBO. Our host was very responsive when an issue arrived that was of no fault of theirs! We will definitely try to rent this cabin again when we return to Tennessee next summer!

About the host

Hosted by Cody Levi

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Cody! I love the Smoky Mountains and everything that makes this area such a special place to visit. As a host, my goal is simple: I want guests to feel comfortable, welcomed, and at home from the moment they arrive. I enjoy helping families and friends make the most of their time here, whether that means relaxing at the cabin, exploring the mountains, or discovering some of the local favorites. There’s something really rewarding about knowing our place can be part of someone’s vacation memories.

Why they chose this property

We chose this area because it gives guests the best of both worlds. You’re close enough to enjoy everything the Smoky Mountains have to offer, including hiking, attractions, restaurants, and entertainment, while still having a peaceful place to come back to at the end of the day. I especially love the mountain atmosphere here. It’s quiet, scenic, and gives you that feeling of getting away from the everyday hustle while still being close to everything you need.

What makes this property unique

What makes this property special is the experience it offers. It’s a place where you can slow down, spend time together, and really enjoy being in the mountains. Whether you’re starting the morning with a cup of coffee, relaxing after a day of exploring, or gathering together in the evening, the property is designed to feel comfortable and inviting. We want guests to leave feeling like they didn’t just have a place to stay, but had a memorable Smoky Mountain experience.
