Minutes from downtown, book early for summer We try to make our home feel like home away from home, rustic but very homey. We try to supply everything you will need except your food and clothes. We don't want you to have to worry about bringing everything under the sun. We provide detergent for both washer and dishwasher, spices, trash bags, etc. Our home has 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths. Two bedrooms upstairs where living and kitchen area's are with a full bath, both queen size beds with flat screen tvs's. Large stone fireplace. Downstairs has a full bathroom, two bedrooms with queen size beds and one with two twin beds. Separate laundry room also downstairs. We have a deck overlooking the woods with a dining set that seats 6, an electric grill and a 5 person hot tub. We tend to have a lot of bears to see from the deck. Parking for 6 cars. All brand new appliances, new recliners, flat screens in all bedrooms and unlimited wifi. We are very close to Ober Gatlinburg Ski Resort, which does make it a bit steep getting to our cabin, but it is a beautiful drive. We are 7 minutes from downtown and the entrance to the Smoky Mountains National Park. Both levels have entrances to eliminate the extra steps for people who have trouble with them. We have tons of new upgrades and are always doing more, the entire house has new flooring, master bedroom has a new bedroom set also. We are an actual vacation rental by owner, no middle man. I personally answer any and all questions via my personal cell or email. We hope you will rent from us and treat our home like it was your own. We know you'll want to stay again. In the winter months it is advisable to have a four wheel drive we are located in the city limits where the roads are maintained and salted but with unpredictable whether we can’t guarantee that you’ll be able to get there in those months. We have a slight Mountain View From the cabin it’s more wooded but the view is almost everywhere you look while driving to and from the cabin. We do have a 5 night minimum over Thanksgiving, Christmas and 4th of July. Minimum age to rent is 25\. SLEEPS 10 people. DUE TO PAST GUESTS AND CARPET NEEDING REPLACED WE ABSOLUTELY DO NOT ALLOW PETS AND WE HAVE A RING DOORBELL TO CHECK GUESTS UPON ARRIVAL. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cabin: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the mountains ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 2,300 square feet ## Similar properties ![House (4 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/107000000/106270000/106261000/106260948/ed0a0878.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Rustic Cottage by Avantstay Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Pool Table 5mins to Town Gatlinburg - Hot tub - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Parking included 8.8 Excellent 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-15&endDate=2026-03-16&selected=106260948&PinnedHotelID=106260948&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Standard Chalet, 4 Bedrooms | Building design](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/61000000/60560000/60554900/60554813/eb54ef6a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Edelweiss Estate - Mountain Views Chalet Village - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Parking included 7.8 Good 9 reviews £397 includes taxes & fees 2 Mar - 3 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-02&endDate=2026-03-03&selected=60554813&PinnedHotelID=60554813&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![House (1 Bedroom) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94360000/94358100/94358060/48ef19e8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gatlinburg Vacation Rental w/ Hot Tub & Game Room!

But do heed the warnings of locking cat doors, our neighbors didn’t and they hadn’t been there 30minutes and a bear was in their vehicle. The bear came over to our cabin and looked inside our truck but didn’t scratch it or anything. Our trip was a great relaxing time with family ##### RACHEL E.

We must say it was an absolute enjoy the entire week. We were greeted with 8 Bears on our 4th Day. Watching the cubs play and climb trees had to be the highlight of the trip. It was a beautiful time and a beautiful place. The cabin was perfect and the fire place was a blessing. We look forward to visiting again next year. I highly recommend this cabin and area. It is a very short drive to Gatlinburg and the scenery is pleasant. ##### Joseph S.

We enjoyed our stay soo much! it was exactly what the property was described as. We encountered multiple bears, every single day. The last day we did have to call the police to scare the bears off so we can leave. They came quickly. Bears can climb quickly! even up those tiny wooden beams . the AC worked great, we did use the laundry which was great also. my kids loved the hot tub, we didnt use it on day 5,6,7 tho.

Did not realize how high up the mountain it was located. So did not make to many trips to and from the cabin a day. Wasnt a fan of the small roads lol. Seen momma and baby bear a few times. They loved my daughters car tried to get in several times. The ended up in my sons back seat the day we were packing to leave. That was a trip. We did a lot of adventures zip line, water rafting, atvs, skyland and a lot of restaurants a.wasnt at cabin to much but it was very nice place ##### Jessica B. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Melissa B. 5 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy When we first arrived we were not impressed with the parking. 2 of the parking areas are right beside the road. One is as you top a hill and go around a a turn. Too close to the road for comfort. The when you open the front door if you are not careful you could walk right into the stairway to the basement. The internet wasnt working and when they did get it working the wifi still did not work. The stairs from the lower parking area to the front pourch are narrow with vines growing on them and a rough splintery rail. The stairs going to the upper parking area seem to be newer but the rail again is old and splintery with no midway support so it is wobbly. There are air conditioner units in the kitchen and livingroom and ine bedroom upstairs. Nothing downstairs and it was hot even witb the ceiling fan and free standing fan. There are also no closets or dressers or chests downstairs and not enough room to leave suitcases open on the floors.Even with the internet working, none of the downstairs TVs could connect it. So only one TV really was able to be used. The place was clean enough and it was eaay to contact the host. We didnt use the hot tub but it seemed to be in good working order and clean. ![Lower parking where 2 cars can park then the side parking area that is very close to the road](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dbad6f25-f5ad-48d0-85c3-e9bf72f0309c-1759634160162.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Stairs going up from lower area](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2ba03b81-4939-4bac-9446-79e650113df9-1759634160046.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Upper parking area that is right next to the road as you come around a hairpin turn at the top of the hill](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4a7e17f4-4324-4f65-8f72-6629d71c0a17-1759634160535.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Stairs at the upper parking area](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bbfbbb70-32cb-4bf6-90e0-ba75eb5ab623-1759634160196.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Melissa B. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Leslie C. 9 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Definitely bears! Great getaway location to meet up with friends. Excellent to see bears. We saw 4 around the cabin. None were aggressive. Watched them from the balcony. The AC isn’t really much for cooling off the entire house. It got a little muggy at times, but it cooled off outside in the evenings so it was fine for sleeping. Not sure it would keep up with the heat in July and Aug, but there in the mountains it may be fine. Shady location so that helps. Hot tub was relaxing the one night we used it. Holds 4 comfortably. We had 6 in our party and the house sleeps that many comfortably. The kitchen is an open design so it works well for social interaction while cooking. The deck/balcony was great for socializing as well. ##### Leslie C. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheryl A. 24 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The cabin was exactly as oictured!! 2 floors, 2 bedrooms and a bath on main floor, and 3 bedrooms and bath on downstairs floor. Hot tub was clean and workinh propely. Enough patking for 5 cars. Cabins is on the side of a mountain, so roads are narrow and steep, so be aware! The bears seemed to appear around dinner time. We had a great time!! ##### Cheryl A. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nicole M. 1 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location The house was nice and cozy.

My family stayed the week between Christmas and New Year. The night we arrived it snowed making driving tricky, but we made it up the mountain in time to watch the snow fall from the hot tub! Wendy was great at making sure we had everything we needed for our stay and checked in with us to make sure we were comfortable. Great cabin, beautiful views! ##### Shelly C.

The hairpin turns on steep roads were a challenge but we managed. Dinners were at the cabin and our days were spent exploring. Fun trip. ##### Paula I.

We all loved watching the bears and hanging out on the porch. Wendy was a pleasure to work with and very responsive. Looking forward to our next visit. For some reason, the bears really liked the back of my truck. ##### Tim N. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ---
