“What a Retreat” says it all! With over 3,200 sq ft of indoor space, and 2 large covered, screened decks, your family won’t feel cramped. There are plenty of spaces to discover privacy, yet the large Great Room and Kitchen allow everyone to gather in one area when inclined. Decorated with woodsy themed furnishings, the decor embraces the mountain escape feel that we all desire when visiting the Smokies.
Retreat from the hustle and bustle of sightseeing by taking a short climb to the top of a ridge where the cabin is nestled among the trees for privacy. Relax with a cup of coffee on one of the two oversized screened decks and experience the spectacular views of Cove Mountain! With over 3 acres surrounding the cabin (and backing another 90 undeveloped wooded acres), it feels like you're staying on your own private mountain top! During winter months, glimpses of Mt. LeConte and Bluff Mountain can also be seen! Pull up one of our rockers and submerge yourself in the sounds of the mountains in a very sheltered setting.
If stairs present an issue for any of your party, we have a WHEELCHAIR RAMP to provide ease of entrance to the main level of the cabin, as well as two King suites on the main level. The West bathroom has a lower threshold shower and a large open floor space to accommodate a wheelchair or walker for guests with mobility issues. The lower screened deck, with two King suites and Game Room are wheelchair accessible from the driveway.
The Great Room is complete with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace in the middle of a wall of windows, framing the wooded scenery and Cove Mountain. And there’s no need to struggle building or maintaining a fire – the fireplace is outfitted with gas logs for instant warmth and gratification. There is also a Queen sofa bed available!
The expansive, gourmet kitchen is a delight when preparing meals for a crowd! Cooks can easily work together without getting in each other’s space. Top of the line gas cooktop and oven make preparing meals a breeze. And a warming drawer keeps foods warm until mealtime! The HUGE dining room table seats 10 people comfortably for mealtime and connecting with friends and family!
The two King bedrooms on the main floor are separated by the Great Room and Kitchen, providing additional privacy for guests. Each bedroom has a 43” 4K QLED TV and a door leading directly to the screened deck. The West bedroom (with a King bed) boasts an oversized walk-in closet, and a private bathroom with a 4’ X 6’ shower stall and huge soaking tub.
On the East side of the cabin is a King bedroom, complete with a large, lighted closet, and a bathroom with a tub/shower combo and double vanity. The laundry room, also on this side of the cabin, contains a full-sized front-loading washer and dryer with plenty of room to hang and fold laundered clothes.
The lower level contains 2 King bedrooms with bathrooms, and a Game Room with comfortable seating for viewing the 75" Smart TV. An oversized bathroom contains a tub/shower combo and large double vanity, and dual access to one of the King bedrooms and the Game Room. The other King bedroom has a private full bathroom with a double vanity and tub/ shower combo.
For families that enjoy competing in games of skill, we offer a variety of challenges downstairs in the Game Room. Indoor games include a pool table, foosball, sit-down 2-player multi-arcade game, wall mounted Connect Four, chess/checkers, reversible card/poker table, card games, jigsaw puzzles, and board games galore. Outdoor entertainment includes cornhole, a wood-burning firepit, a walking trail, and more! With over 3 acres, the only limits for exploration are your imagination!
Family gatherings to watch a favorite TV show or movie can be enjoyed in the Great Room, which is outfitted with a 75” 4K QLED Smart TV with soundbar and Blu-ray player. Or enjoy your favorite game or movie on the 75” 4K QLED Smart TV in the Game Room while playing a game of pool or foosball.
For the grill master in the group, a large 6-burner gas grill is conveniently located just steps off the kitchen under the covered carport. The large, upper screened deck provides the perfect setting to avoid the insects and enjoy your culinary endeavors. Or enjoy your meal at the picnic table on the lower screened deck - then soothe your muscles and soak away your cares in the 6-person hot tub!
Last but not least is the fire pit which sets the stage for storytelling and memory making. We supply the wood…you supply the stories and laughter.
Even though "What A Retreat" feels secluded and away from it all, it’s approximately 5 minutes from the Parkway and all the action of Pigeon Forge: restaurants, dinner shows, grocery stores, entertainment, shopping, and more! Tanger Outlets is only 10 minutes away, and Dollywood a short 20-minute drive.
