Other Details to Note

SMALL BATHROOMS The bathrooms in this property are small! While the shower sizes are definitely roomy and standard, the sink spaces are tiny and the toilets are wedged between them and the showers. If you need extra counter space to get ready this may not be the best fit. ROADS/DRIVEWAY The roads are somewhat narrow and a few parts are steep/on an incline. They can also be dark at night. However, if you want to stay in the mountains you will have to navigate this with almost any property you book. Trust us, you will be a pro after you have driven the roads once! We encourage a four-wheel drive vehicle in the winter months due to the chance of snow. If it does snow, please be aware that the roads can freeze and the county isn't the best at clearing or salting the side roads. It's the South so it happens infrequently and they wait for it to melt. CELL SERVICE/WIFI Both work great! HOUNDS IN THE HOLLER Dogs reside somewhere in the foothills of Mt Le Conte. Their barks echo and can be heard outside of this property at times. We have yet to actually hear them while inside, but tower fans with white noise capabilities have been provided in each bedroom just in case! CABIN COMMUNITY This property sits within a community of other cabins/chalets. Therefore, you may hear and/or see your neighbors at times. If you are looking for a more secluded property then check out my other listings as they may fit the bill! CRITTERS The chalet is less than 4 miles from the entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. There are over 19,000 species that have been documented in the park and scientists believe another 80,000-100,000 species may live there. Therefore, a lot of those critters also reside in our neck of the woods. The chalet is treated monthly by a licensed pest control company, however, there is still a chance that a critter could make its way inside (for example: a bug) or outside (for example: a bear). It is just a part of forest living! MOUNTAIN VIEW There is an opening of trees which creates a small unobstructed view of Mt Le Conte. You can see the outline of the whole mountain behind the other trees, especially when the leaves are not filled in.

Beautiful Airbnb! We had our breaths taken away the moment we pulled into the parking pad. The cabin was gorgeous and we could not believe the Mountain View we were seeing. Plenty of amenities were provided, we cooked steak and potatoes the night we arrived, and we found that everything was there for us. Tara was very responsive to any question we had and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable. The alarm system as well as the neighboring cabins made us feel like we were in a safe area. The jacuzzi was awesome too. Already thinking about coming back for summer!

We had an amazing stay here. The place was beautiful, private, and had incredible views, especially of the Smokies. The hot tub was a huge plus and made the experience even better. The host was very responsive, and the check-in and check-out process was easy and detailed. The amenities were great overall, and the location was perfect since it was very close to downtown Gatlinburg and nearby attractions. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Gatlinburg.

The cabin was beautiful and the perfect size for my husband and I and our bay daughter. It is super convenient to Gatlinburg and Smoky Mountain National Park. Tara was very responsive and gave clear, easy to follow instructions.

Tara and Ben were excellent hosts, from prior to check in to check out they made sure to stay in contact and make sure that we were taken care of. The nest at the foothills was conveniently located to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, while also providing enough distance from the hustle and bustle to be a peaceful retreat. Thank you for sharing your space with us and we will be back in the future.
