ECHO PLACE. A cozy Family Base Camp for Hiking, Skiing, and Area Exploration!

Echo Place has over 1,580 SF of living area with lots of surrounding porches and decks. A bedroom and bath on each of the three levels makes the ideal setup for up privacy when more than one couple/family come together for fun in the Smokies. We advertise to sleep (8) due to size of cabin. However with the sofa bed and loft cubby it can actually sleep eight (8) adults and three (3) children comfortably. Plenty of very well lit parking for at least 4 vehicles. Zero steps to the main level!

The Main Level features a bedroom with King bed and bunkbeds for kids/teenagers, HDTV and DVD player. The bathroom is shared with the main living area. Open kitchen/dining/living room with HDTV/DVD Player and Bluetooth surround sound to stream your own music. A huge stone fireplace, soaring ceilings, plenty of glass/french doors to the decks and woods make this space seem huge. The deck space off the main level includes a large covered porch with picnic table, open decking with Adirondack chairs and a bar w/seating to take in the views and mountain air. Also a half-court shuffleboard off the parking lot makes for great outdoor fun. The hiking center is at the entrance with hiking poles, binoculars, and a ruck pack full of emergency items.

The Loft Level features a Queen bed w/child sleeping area, private bath and French doors leading to a nice balcony and sitting area. HDTV.

The Lower Level features a third bedroom with King bed, HDTV, UT themed laundry room, and a recreation room. The bathroom is shared between the rec room and bedroom. Recreation includes a beautiful handcrafted shuffleboard table, an air hockey table, and a 3-in-1 bumper pool/poker/game table. Comfortable sectional for viewing movies on the large surround sound HDTV with Bluetooth theater. Plenty of movies and games provided for your use as well as several board games.
Off the Rec Room is an enclosed screened in porch with a bubbling hot tub and comfortable seating to take in the night. A grille area is just outside (bring your own charcoal).
Internet and Streaming Services provided along with plenty of movies onsite for family movie night.

We had a great time. The cabin was very clean and it was pretty well stocked. The porches could have used a good sweep to get rid of the spiders and webs but to be far, we are in the woods. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were very clean. Great place for a sibling get together.

We had a great labor day weekend trip in Gatlinburg! The cabin was very large and well appointed, the kids had a great time as well. The hot tub was great as well and my wife and daughters loved it. Everyone also loved seeing the bears. So Many Bears!! We saw more bears around the cabin then we have ever seen in our many smokies trips. On more than one occasion they were within feet of us!

This was the second time we’ve stayed at Echo Place and could not have asked for a better host, house or location. Jay answered questions quickly and the house was perfect for our needs. Easy access to the park as well as downtown. We saw 9 bears this trip, including 4 cubs! A family of barred owls also stopped by on our last day! We will definitely stay here again in the future!

Nice base for a family vacation

Nice family vacation. Cute cabin with plenty of beds for the entire family. My teens enjoyed the game room and hot tub, and that there is a tv in every room! Wifi was good too. The beds were very comfortable! I've been to some vrbo's that have had horrible beds, so i was pleasantly surprised!!

Nice and cozy cabin

Cabin was nice and overall pretty clean. Very good location, only about 5 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg. Some updates could be done to make it a little better but overall it was a good cabin!

Bears, Bears, Bears

The property was a bit run down and there was no yard whatsoever BUT we saw bear everyday. The hot tub was great!! The housekeeper, Sissy was amazing!! The toaster was broken and she brought a new one in a jiffy. The windy road is breathtaking. I did wish we had a view from the porch but when we were in the driveway we could see the mountain view beautifully.
