• "The views are truly breathtaking!! Beautiful cabin - would highly recommend."
• "The place was immaculate. The host even left snacks, extra supplies and everything that you needed in case you forgot to bring something."

• Gas fireplaces (main living room and primary suite) available October 1–March 31.
• Quiet paved country roads with limited lighting at night - arriving during daylight makes for a much more scenic first impression.

• Bear-proof trash bin and regular pest control provided.
• Safety: smoke alarms, carbon monoxide alarms, fire extinguisher, and first aid kit on site. Exterior cameras cover the front porch and parking area only - no cameras inside the cabin.

Colleen was quick to respond with any questions and also gave excellent recommendations for hikes, activities, and restaurants for our family of 5. The cabin game room was a huge hit and the 3 king bedrooms provided adequate space for everyone. The cabin was stocked with many amenities we weren’t expecting, such a thoughtful touch.

Secluded, Peaceful, and Perfect for Smokies Adventures
This cabin gave us exactly the Smoky Mountain experience we were hoping for. GPS took us straight there, and being minutes from Sugarlands Visitor Center made our arrival day so easy — parking pass, maps, and we were set for the week. The cabin itself was spotless and incredibly cozy, even with eight adults. The kitchen had everything we needed, Wi‑Fi was solid, and check‑in couldn’t have been simpler. We loved our quiet mornings with coffee on the deck, cicadas humming away, and the kind of deep mountain darkness at night that feels almost magical. And yes… we saw a bear! He wandered by one evening, just doing his thing, and it made the whole stay feel like a true Smokies moment. This place is perfect for hikers, nature lovers, and anyone wanting peaceful mountain time.
Our stay at Mountain View was everything we could have asked for. The setting is stunning, it was very clean and the most comfy beds and bedding! The bathrooms were clean, towels sparkling clean and water pressure in showers fabulous! The hosts truly anticipated every need. The cabin was just as described. The game loft was great especially on our one drizzly day. And we made use of the hot tub, fire pit and the balconies facing the mountains! A fabulous stay!

Thank you for such a glowing review! We are delighted that you enjoyed everything from the comfy bedding and great water pressure to the game loft and hot tub. Anticipating our guests' needs is always our top priority. You are welcome back to Scenic Sanctuary anytime!
What a great experience! Colleen was highly responsive to our questions and the cabin is exactly as pictured. The beds are comfy and we woke every morning to an amazing view of the mountains. The game room had pool table, foosball, video, and arcade games. We enjoyed putting together one of the many puzzles. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes and pots and pans. There is even a blender. We spent some time relaxing outside around the firepit.Overall a wonderful experience. We appreciated all of the little touches, like chewy granola bars at the breakfast nook. Would happily stay again.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay and that the cabin lived up to your expectations. It’s wonderful to hear that you made the most of the game room, kitchen, and firepit - and I love that you took time to enjoy one of the puzzles too! I try to include thoughtful touches to make guests feel right at home, so I’m happy to know they were appreciated. You were a pleasure to host, and I’d be happy to welcome you back anytime at Scenic Sanctuary!
We had the best time! The cabin was exactly as pictured, and in the PERFECT location. You get the full “mountain experience”, while also a quick easy drive to activities in town. The host responded quickly to all questions. They have a wonderful guest book that answers literally anything about the cabin you may be uncertain about. We enjoyed time inside playing all of the wonderful games provided by the host, but also enjoyed time outside on the beautiful grounds and by the fire pit. We roasted marshmallows with our children, which everyone enjoyed. Our entire family was sad to leave. I highly recommend this cabin and host if you want a stress free vacation. Wonderful experience. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Thank you so much for this incredibly kind review! We’re always sad when great guests like you have to depart, but you’re always welcome back, and we’d love to host you again anytime!
It’s so wonderful to hear that your family had such a great time and were able to enjoy both the peaceful mountain setting and the easy access to town. It makes us especially happy to know the games and fire pit helped create special memories - roasting marshmallows is one of our favorite things to do when we visit!
We loved our stay! Communication with Colleen was easy! Our 3 kids (20years-14years) all found things to do in the cabin. The views were fantastic!! It was a very comfortable stay!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I’m so glad to hear that your family had such a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Hosting families with older teens and young adults can sometimes be a test for cabin amenities, so it makes my day to know all three of your kids found plenty to do!
Those mountain views really are special, and I’m so happy you were able to take them in. It was an absolute pleasure hosting you, and you’re welcome back anytime!
Peaceful location with lots of extras that made our stay feel like home! The hosts were very responsive through the whole process from booking to checking out. I would highly recommend.
This cabin was AMAZING! We had my husband, 2 daughters and I, my brother, his wife and 2 sons, and my mom and dad and it was perfect! It felt like we all had our own space when we needed it but had a bunch of common areas to hang out together when we wanted to! It is very family friendly and safe! The views were to die for. The hosts were extremely responsive and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Hello! We're David and Colleen, your hosts and the proud owners of this cabin. After vacationing in the Smoky Mountains with our family for over thirty years, we fell in love with the magic of the mountains and dreamed of creating special retreats of our own — and now, here we are!
With professional backgrounds rooted in hospitality and education, we are deeply passionate about creating a seamless, relaxing, and memorable stay for every guest. Our goal is to offer a true home away from home where you can unwind in nature while still being just minutes from everything we love about the Smokies.
We look forward to hosting you soon!
Why they chose this property
We searched for a long time to find just the right place to call our own in the Smokies, and when we discovered this charming cabin in Wears Valley, we knew immediately it was the one. Tucked away in a peaceful, private setting with sweeping mountain views from every level, it offered exactly what we'd been looking for: true seclusion without sacrificing convenience. We're just minutes from the back entrance of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, and downtown Gatlinburg, and those views are waiting for you every single morning.
This property has been a guest favorite and consistently booked under the prior owner for over 13 years. We are delighted to update the cabin with our own touches and vision so that we can continue to delight visitors!
What makes this property unique
At 2,500 square feet across three levels, Scenic Sanctuary has the space, the views, and the amenities to make any Smoky Mountain getaway truly unforgettable. Three private king suites, stacked stone fireplaces, and sweeping mountain views from every level - there's plenty of room for family and friends to relax, reconnect, and make memories both indoors and out.
We especially love the semi-private driveway shared with just two neighboring cabins. The trees and natural setting create a genuine sense of seclusion that's hard to find this close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Our favorite evening ritual? Soaking in the hot tub with those panoramic Wears Valley views, then gathering around the propane fire pit to watch the stars come out.
The game loft was built with pure fun in mind - stand-up arcade (60+ classic games!), Nintendo Classic Edition retro console, pool table, foosball, board games, and puzzles. When it's time to wind down, the lower-level movie lounge with 55" Roku TV and Bose soundbar is perfect for a private movie night, with DVDs, books, board games, and direct deck access for the guests staying on that level.
The fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to cook and gather, and the coffee bar means mornings start exactly right.
