Pet-friendly retreat with tree-top views, a hot tub + an arcade loft!
Dew South really does have something for everyone. The two-bedroom log cabin, which can sleep up to eight people—and your four-legged best friend too!—includes an outdoor hot tub, an indoor jetted tub, a foosball table, an Xbox, a multi-game arcade, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and a huge porch. One thing’s for sure: When you stay here, you’ll never be bored!
Inside and out, Dew South looks exactly as you’d want a cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains to look. Settle into the rockers on the wraparound covered porch, look out over the treetops and you’ll immediately feel relaxed and reinvigorated. Take advantage of the view and the fresh mountain air by dining on the porch too, at the round wood table. And to truly immerse yourself in nature’s beauty, revel in the singing of the birds and the warmth of the sun while soaking in the porch’s hot tub—it doesn’t get better than this!
Inside, the wood-planked floor, walls, and vaulted ceiling gain extra luster from the sunshine streaming in through the large windows and, in winter, from the warm glow of the gas fireplace. The living area’s seating is plush and well cushioned: Stretch out with a book, or gather with friends and family to watch a movie on the flat-panel TV.
Another inviting gathering spot is the farmhouse dining table, which seats six. It’s located right beside the kitchen, so you can keep the cook company—or if you’re the one cooking, you can keep an eye on the kids in the living area, thanks to the open floor plan. Fully outfitted with appliances, gadgets, pots, pans, and tableware, the kitchen can accommodate just about all your culinary efforts, no matter how elaborate. There’s a dishwasher too, because nobody wants to scrub plates while on vacation.
Dew South makes a dreamy honeymoon cabin, not only because of the privacy and beauty of its environs but also thanks to its spacious bedroom. There’s a king-size bed, of course, along with a private bathroom and a large flat-panel TV. Best of all is the jetted tub. A long, steamy soak is sure to put you in the mood for romance…or at the very least, soothe your tired muscles after a day of hiking, fishing, skiing, or biking.
If you’re vacationing with kids, chances are they’ll spend most of their time upstairs, in the loft bedroom. Of course, you might be there right alongside them! When you’re not playing foosball, you can challenge the others to one of the 60-plus games on the arcade or play on the Xbox; along with 14 games, it has access to Xbox Live. Or, you can stretch out on the game room’s sofa and watch your favorite cable programs on the flat-panel TV, or get nice and comfy on one of the beanbag chairs with your tablet or a book.
The loft bedroom can sleep up to four guests with a set of twin-over-full bunk beds and a sofa that opens into a queen-size bed—you know the kids will be over the moon at the prospect of sleeping up here! There’s a full bathroom upstairs as well. And if you have additional overnight guests, the living room sofa downstairs also converts to a bed for two.
If you like to fish, you’re in luck: When you stay at Dew South, you have access to the community fishing pond. If you’d rather shop or gallery-hop, you’re in luck too, because the cabin is just minutes from the Gatlinburg Arts and Crafts Loop, an eight-mile trail of studios, galleries, and crafts shops. And no matter what your interests, you’ll love being less than 15 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg, with its restaurants and attractions ranging from an aquarium to mini golf.
See what we mean when we say you’ll never be bored at Dew South? There’s so much to see in the immediate vicinity and so much to do right in the cabin! So book your stay today, and get ready for your best vacation yet.

Fabulous! House was perfect. We weren’t in it much and we really aren’t picky. It was clean, it had incredible views and we all had a nice bed to sleep in. Worth it to us.
The cabin was nice with a nice view. Unfortunately the dryer wouldn't work because the lint holder was broken and wouldn't stay inside the lint trap. The upstairs toilet leaked down through the ceiling into the downstairs bed. The fireplace did not work also.
The cabin itself is in alright shape, but its time for some of the furniture to be replaced. The mattress in the main bedroom is old and lumpy. It caused me to have back pain through out the trip. The couch in the living room is also very worn out. If that doesn’t bother you the cabin will work.
really fun and great time with a view and close to everything to do.

Thank you so much for this 5-star review. We really appreciate you being a customer and helping to share the word about us. We’re here for you anytime.
This tiny cabin has everything you need to enjoy a stay in the mountains. We especially enjoyed the kids loft and the beautiful view from the porch. The beds and couch are comfortable and the kitchen is stocked well.
There is a fantastic dog park 1.5 miles away if you need a place to play with your pets.
Absolutely Beautiful and secluded in the mountains. Had a very large bear that scared the heck out of us as we were walking to our car. The bear just walked away like we were not even there. We ran! lol.
This was a pleasant cabin home that provided several amenities. It was close to downtown activities. The host was receptive and checked on us. We loved our experience.
The cabin is beautiful and being able to sit out on the back deck was amazing in the morning and evenings. Beds were comfortable. Kids enjoyed the Hot Tub and the video arcade machine. Great visit to the area and wonderful home to relax in after a busy day.
The children had a blast in the upstairs children’s room! The size was perfect for our family of 5, and the views were incredible! Overall satisfied. The only critique is that it’s in need of a deep clean- more than just a linen change and sweep of the carpets. Otherwise, would book again!

Nice location
Cabin could have been cleaner, door blinds made bad first impression. Carpets need attention. Rusted grill needs to be hauled away, nice location though, craft loop right down the road! This cabin is not for tall people, some lights and bedroom fan hang low. Overall ok but for the cost we’ll be staying elsewhere next time.
Cabin was amazing. Well stocked. View was stunning. Went may1thru5 and was a lil cold. Upset that they had turned propane off to where we couldnt use fireplace for our couples massage. Theyre number is on fridge. Great people
The cabin had a beautiful view. Amenities were great. The jetted tub in the bedroom didn’t work at first, but when we let them know they serviced it the same day and got it working.
There isn’t a fan in the downstairs bathroom, so there was some mold on the walls. I’m not sure about the upstairs bathroom. Overall a great place with a great view.

Enjoyable
My wife and i enjoyed ourselves. Beautiful view and great location. My only negative is with the listing. It says sleeps 8. While yes, it would, but not comfortably. Would be cramped for 4 adults. In my opinion, it is a little deceiving.
This location is about 10 minutes or so from the town of Gatlinburg. The cabin had everything we needed, keep in mind you only get one of everything so for instance, if you need to use the dishwasher more than once, you will have to purchase dishwasher tabs, etc. I would also like to note, if you happen to bring dogs, there is virtually no yard as this location is on the side of the mountain so the terrain is quite steep. There is plenty of games available for the entire family which was a plus. We would definitely stay here again. The morning views are amazing!
Great location and view. Few items need some work. There was no in door trash can except small bathroom one, master bath shower doors wouldn’t stay on track and finally became so stuck could not move them, upstairs shower head needs cleaning or replacing as only a couple of the holes were not clogged creating a “power washer” effect. Correct those and I would rate higher
