About this property

Creekside Mountain Retreat. Waterfall, pond, natural serenity, pet-friendly.

Relax, refresh, and soak in the serenity and beauty of the Smoky Mountains. This waterfall is all yours for the duration of your stay. All photos were taken onsite, except the last four which show nearby views.

Holler Haven is a totally renovated and expanded house tucked away in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, surrounded by Cherokee National Forest and just a few miles from Martha Sundquist State Forest, the Appalachian Trail, and the eastern edge of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Holler Haven outside: Woods, walking spaces, and a pond. Best of all, a spring-fed mountain creek flows right by the house and the screened-in porch overlooks your very own a waterfall. Keep your eyes peeled for great blue heron, marsh hawk, pileated woodpecker, many other birds including wild turkey, as well as deer, rabbits, and more. In season you might even find berries. You'll love it! Your dog will love it, too!

Holler Haven inside: There are 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, full kitchen, dining room, and living room, all new appliances, newly furnished, with wifi via Starlink and TV via DirecTV, and a screened-in porch overlooking the creek and waterfall. The location is private.

Unplug--There are no cell towers on the mountain. Connect on your terms--You can use your phone onsite by turning on your wifi option.

Holler Haven is perfect for a quiet getaway in the mountains.

Stay here. Relax and rest. Walk through the woods. Meditate by the fire while enjoying the sights and sounds of the waterfall and creek. Laze at the side of the pond while being serenaded by frogs and falling water. Watch TV. Play games. Prepare a special meal. Melt into the solitude together while slow rocking on the screened-in porch.

Or discover adventures in the area and know a peaceful retreat awaits you at the end of the day. White-water rafting just a few miles away on the Pigeon River. Hiking and picnicking in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Scenic drives along Foothill Parkway and so many other beautiful routes. Visit Gatlinburg. Pigeon Forge. Hot Springs. The Biltmore Estate in Asheville. Dollywood in Sevierville. The Knoxville Zoo. The Birthplace of Country Music Museum in Bristol. And on, and on, and on.

Our water comes from a deep well. It's the best water we've ever tasted.

Dog friendly w/ $50 fee per stay, 2 dogs max
Plenty of room to run and explore.
Dogs must be kenneled if left alone in the house. We have a large crate and bed that you can borrow; just let us know ahead of time.
Two friendly old dogs live with the hosts. They don't get around as much as they used to, but you may see them on the property.

Host profile image
Phil and Chris moved to the Smoky Mountains about 10 years ago. We love it! We have been blessed with a truly beautiful location to live, to steward, and to share. We are happy to respond to questions, and we hope you will let us know how we can make your visit even better. We hope you will love it here as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property the first time we saw it. The creek. The waterfalls. The pond. The trees. The wildlife. Stand anywhere on the property. Look in any direction. Breathe it all in. Stress melts away.

What makes this property unique

A spring-fed creek cascades down through the center of the property. A waterfall is right next to the house. Downstream the creek feeds a restful pond. A wooded mountainside embraces it all and is home to all sorts of wildlife. Beauty abounds. All is at peace. Holler Haven Creekside Mountain Retreat is close to the major attractions of the Smoky Mountains and East Tennessee and it is far from the crowds, the noise, and the hustle bustle. It is perfect for a quiet refuge away from it all or as a welcoming homebase for exploration and adventure.
