You never have to go far to enjoy the great outdoors while staying at our cabins in the heart of the Smokies! In fact, just step right onto your private deck to experience the stunning views of the mountains, relaxing sounds of nature, and the fresh scents of the forest! While you’ll find hundreds of miles of hiking trails just minutes away at the National Park, you can spend hours right at our cabins experiencing the magic of the mountains with your family and friends. Here are 4 fun ways to enjoy the great outdoors at our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals:

1. Kick Back in the Soothing Hot Tub

One of the highlights of our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals is the bubbling hot tub that awaits your arrival! Whether you are staying with us during the warmer summer months or the cool winter season, the soothing waters of the hot tub feel delightful at any time of year. Start your day with an early morning soak as you watch the sights of nature come alive or head out in the evening to witness a spectacular sunset. If you’ve been feeling any stress from your daily life back home, you’ll feel it melt away almost instantly!

2. Gather Around the Fire Pit

If you are staying at one of our Smoky Mountain cabins with fire pits, enjoy a traditional campfire evening under the stars! This is the perfect time to reconnect with your family members, share some laughs with your friends, and create some amazing new memories together! Make s’mores for an evening treat for the kids, tell ghost stories for some spooktacular fun, or cuddle up with your sweetheart for a special evening under the stars. Regardless of how you decide to spend the night, you’ll love spending a few hours kicking back among the glow of the flames!

3. Have a Picnic Lunch or Dinner on the Deck

Another one of the fun ways to enjoy the great outdoors at our Smoky Mountain cabin rentals is by having a picnic lunch or dinner on the deck. You don’t have to worry about packing a cooler for this picnic, as all of our cabins feature fully equipped kitchens with all the modern amenities of your own kitchen back home. Therefore, you can prepare everything from a casual lunch with sandwiches and chips to a gourmet meal for the whole gang. Just remember to clean up everything from outside, as you don’t want any bear visitors during your stay!

4. Experiencing Stargazing Opportunities Like No Other

If you love stargazing, just wait until you step outside of our private secluded cabins in the Smoky Mountains! You’ll have the opportunity to experience a night sky lit up like no other, as there is little light pollution in the area to disturb the view of the celestial wonders. Consider bringing a star chart along to help identify the various constellations or take advantage of your favorite astronomy app!
