Who We Are

Your Hosts

Welcome! We are a family of four generations that have been enjoying the Great Smoky Mountains for many, many years. We decided a few years ago that if we needed to find a house big enough for our family of 20, then maybe other families needed large houses to accommodate their gathering. We have 3 large houses in our portfolio and one small house in town. We love the GSMNP and spend most of our time there. We often make a trip to Dollywood but always have a picnic at the Chimneys Picnic Area and float the stream at Metcalf Bottoms. We've done it ALL in the Smokies, so if you have any questions, just call! We will personally answer the phone!

We have stayed in a lot of different cabins in and around Gatlinburg and this one by far met and exceeded our expectations! Everything we needed for our party of 17 was available in the cabin. Kitchen was well supplied with plenty of pots ,pans ,plates ,silverware and everything else we needed to be comfortable. We had enough towels for everyone including the spas! The outside space was amazing with great views and nice gathering spaces on every level. The children loved the movie room and game room. The highlight of the week were the daily visits from the bears! Mom and her 3 cubs were a favorite! We have never seen so many bears of every shape and size! ( Of course we viewed them from a distance and got some great photos!) Highly recommend this cabin.
