WHY CHOOSE OUR MOUNTAIN PARADISE? Let’s count all the ways…

Imagine driving a gentle winding road up to your cabin in the mountains. Not a big subdivision with a lot of noise and people….just peacefully among nature. Your morning view consists of BREATHTAKING VIEWS OF ICONIC MOUNT LECONTE to begin the day, and is awe inspiring in the evening vista watching the smoke roll through the mountains. DIRECT MOUNTAIN FRONT VIEW with the Smoky Mountains literally in your backyard. Over 900 sq. feet of decks for your viewing pleasure with two levels of covered decking. The “Smoky Mountain Dream Retreat” is an ideal location with 1,884 sq feet of living space with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and OPEN CONCEPT living; easily accessible to Downtown Gatlinburg but nestled in a classic mountain scene and atmosphere. But the location is just the beginning of the many bonuses you will enjoy!

As you approach the front door, your eyes will be mesmerized by the incredible direct views of Mt. LeConte off the deck, before you even ever enter the cabin. We love this cabin because it affords a place to just ‘chill’ without the distractions of too much interference of the ‘stuff’ that complicates our lives.

As you enter the cabin you step into a spacious but cozy living area with high quality furniture to sit and chat with your friends and family; you will immediately notice the difference from other cabins in the area. There’s a Sony smart TV in the living area, equipped with cable TV, Netflix, a Sony Sound Bar and plenty of opportunity for entertainment in the evenings while sitting by the fireplace. Just beyond the living area is a spacious dining area equipped with all the comforts of home. If you enjoy cooking a quick meal or even a memorable family feast, we’ve tried to anticipate your every need. A large grocery store is just three minutes away, and there are a variety of restaurants within five minutes.

Open the blinds of the first level and you can see ‘forever’, or just step out onto the covered deck and have a seat in one of the rocking chairs to get lost in the beauty of The Smokies and the serenity of the cabin. Or share a lunch at the outside table set overlooking the mountains.

Just outside the media room is another gathering spot with an even more impressive vista. This is where we’ve placed the hot tub; up high and private to take in the starry nights or the daytime mountain breeze. If you prefer, you can just sit on the porch swing up there and let the time pass while you read a book, think, or just enjoy creation. The hot tub is emptied and sanitized after every guest.

The upstairs King Suite is decorated exquisitely and is especially spacious with an attached bathroom with walk in shower. You’ll be in awe of the high ceiling in this room and the beauty of the pine logs and wood that wrap this restful area and every room in this cabin.
