The perfect hideaway in the Great Smoky Mountains! This uniquely built cabin will make you feel right at home from the moment you enter. Relax on the covered deck for a bit or stretch your legs on The Historic Ol’ Gun Range walkways before entering the cabin. Enjoy the seasonal long-range mountain view of Water Rock Knob and Great Smoky Mountains National Park while enjoying a glass of tea or coffee on the deck.

Bird watching also very entertaining while enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning!
