Always
Location: Gatlinburg, Tennessee
Description
Rebuilt after the 2016 Gatlinburg Fires, the beautiful Always cabin in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, is a cozy cabin with exposed wood beams, cozy interiors, a steaming hot tub, amazing views of the Great Smoky Mountains, a smart TV, a fully equipped kitchen, and plenty of conveniences to make your stay comfortable.
Brew some coffee in the full kitchen before stepping onto the covered deck for views, fresh air, and a peaceful mountain setting. Relax by the gas fireplace on cool mountain nights, watch TV on the 50-inch TCL smart TV, fall asleep in a king bed, enjoy a bath in the jetted tub inside, or toss steaks on the grill. You’ll even have keyless entry for simple self check-in.
This Gatlinburg cabin rental also has a washer/dryer, rocking chairs, a bistro table on the deck, flat and paved parking, and Wi-Fi (check out our blog)! It’s also conveniently located just off The Spur — between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Along with great cabin amenities at your hideaway, enjoy easy access to dozens of restaurants, shops, shows, and attractions with a great location!
Living Room
The charming living room in this Smoky Mountain cabin features a beautiful stone fireplace, a nice recliner where you can read and nap, a plush sofa, and a small coffee table where you can set drinks and snacks. Flip on the flatscreen TV on a laid-back day, enjoy sunlight as it streams in through the windows, or step onto the deck for some fresh air. Whether you get up early before your partner to read and sip tea or cozy up here together, it’s a great place to relax.
Kitchen
The fully equipped kitchen of your log cabin has all you need for snacks, drinks, and meals — just add ingredients. Cook dinner on the stovetop, bake treats in the oven, brew some coffee or tea (with the kettle), reheat leftovers in the microwave, and stock the refrigerator/freezer. The cabinets are stocked with dishes, glasses, and utensils – and you’ll have a double sink and a dishwasher for easy cleanup.
Dining Area
The dining table just off the kitchen is perfect for 2. You can also spread out into the living room or head to the deck for outdoor meals. The pine tongue-and-groove flooring flows through this space, giving you plenty of Appalachian charm during your meals. Enjoy a quiet breakfast here, sit down for lunch together, or have a nice dinner on a romantic getaway.
Bedroom
This 1-bedroom cabin in Gatlinburg is a peaceful retreat after a long day. The king bedroom suite features a jetted tub, perfect for nice baths. There is a shower, a closet so you can unpack, a ceiling fan for added comfort, and even a laundry closet with a stacked washer/dryer.
Outdoor Spaces
Breathe in the fresh mountain air, enjoy the mountain views, and listen to the sounds of nature in your outdoor spaces at Always. This Smoky Mountain rental cabin has a bistro-style table on the deck, perfect for morning coffee, meals, and late-night chats over a bottle of local wine. There are also rocking chairs here, where you can sit back and unwind.
If you’d like to cook burgers, kabobs, steaks, or some fresh fish you caught in one of those beautiful Smoky Mountain streams, use the grill by the flat, paved parking area. Plus, at this semi-private Gatlinburg cabin, there are only 4 steps up to the front porch, which makes it so much easier to unload or load the cars.
