Amazing clean cabin style place. Just off the main strip with a 10 minute walk. Beats paying for parking for sure. Peaceful fire pit at night with a stream to listen to while you relax. Would highly recommend!

Yes I saw a bear!!
Absolutely lovely stay in this small boutique hotel. Quiet but friendly, easy to walk to what is needed, but far enough away to enjoy nature. Yes, I did see a bear!

Room was spacious, very clean, bed was super comfortable, area is away from the main road so quiet and peaceful. Walkable to the main road though. Staff were friendly and attentive. Nice breakfast area with good free basics. Completely recommend this hotel!

The best stay in Gatlinburg!
Absolutely stunning hotel! The design is beautifully thought out, blending clean, modern comfort with a cozy mountain ambiance. Our room was spotless and so inviting—we truly loved our stay. The staff were all warm and welcoming, and a special shoutout to Kesha at the bar who made me the best cocktail after a long drive. It was exactly what I needed!

Perfect stay
The room and grounds were extremely clean and exactly as pictured. All of the staff were very responsive and kind. The location is excellent; it's close to everything, but tucked away so that it's quiet. Our room was well-appointed and felt more like a vacation home than a hotel room. Our family would stay here every time we're in the area.

Great cozy retreat!
We enjoyed our stay here greatly! The accommodations were excellent and especially enjoyed the log cabin feel and vaulted ceilings. Gas fire pits were very cozy and so unique. We would come back again without a doubt! Thanks for a pleasant stay❣️
