Living Room
Drop your bags in the entrance and follow the hardwood floors to a spacious living room. Whether you spent the day in Downtown Gatlinburgshopping at The Village Shops, or are just arriving to start your vacation, you feel a sense of instant relaxation as the cathedral ceilings open up the room and the fluffy carpet invites. Windows climb the walls to frame gorgeous forest views and allow peeks into the rest of the home.
A bearskin rug adds to the elegance lying beneath your choice of seating. Plunge into one of 2 lovely, modern club chairs to read a long overdue book. Or, stretch out on the couch as you are warmed by the 2 sided (gas) fireplace and hypnotized by the flickering flames. Perfectly placed, a small table and chairs in front of the spacious window allows you to take in more of nature as you chat or play games and still enjoy the fire. Being the center and heart of this home, you can access the upstairs as well as the kitchen and the adjoining dining room.
Kitchen
With enough room for everyone to gather while meals are being prepared, the kitchen is just off the living room and is connected to the neighboring dining area. Whether you have a filling dinner at The Peddler Steakhouse or breakfast from the Log Cabin Pancake House, there is abundant room in this side-by-side refrigerator for any leftovers as well as groceries for meals and snacks.
Take advantage of the spacious island to gather around and converse with family and friends with plenty of prep and serving areas to bake holiday traditions or cook favorite meals. Brew a steaming cup of tea or coffee in the coffeemaker to wake up for an adventure out at Dollywood Theme Park, then blend an adult drink in the blender to wind down for the evening. Full size oven, stove, and microwave provide ample space to prepare whatever your taste buds desire, and a dishwasher aids to quickly clean up any messes.
Dining Area
Steps away from the kitchen the dining area sits adjacent, allowing easy access to serve meals. When the delicious meal is prepared, this country chic table will comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests. Arrange the 6 chairs and 2 benches to also suit a small group playing intense card or board games while staying warm at the inventive double-sided fireplace.
Rec Room + Theater Space
Just up the stairs, a grandiose loft area is home to the rec room and theater space equipped with a big screen TV, DVD player, Blu-ray player, streaming services including Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+, as well as an extensive movie library and video games. Melt into the plush sectional sofa calling your name for a good book, a movie marathon, or just a serene afternoon nap after a morning outing to Gatlin’s Rugged Adventure Ropes Course.
Convenience is at its finest with a snack zone just steps away providing a small microwave, Keurig coffee maker, and refrigerator as well as a popcorn maker that will surely entice the senses as the smell of fresh popcorn fills the air. Housed in the rec area, the full size pool table will provide hours of healthy competition and bonding. Two rustic stools serve as a resting place between shots or additional seating for spectators and cheerleaders.
Bedrooms
Rafting in the Smokies or experiencing the excitement of Gatlinburg Mountain Coasters can leave you exhausted and ready for a pleasant and rejuvenating night’s sleep. At Hawk’s Nest, you will have 4 bedrooms with room for 11 to comfortably sleep. Dreamland awaits all with a choice of 1 king bed, 1 queen bed, 1 twin bed, a triple bunk and a regular bunk with a trundle to snuggle down for a marvelous rest. Fall asleep to a movie in the background in the king or queen rooms and try to keep all of the talking and laughter to a minimum in the bunk rooms so all the kiddos will be ready for a trip to Ripley’s Aquarium. Go ahead and cheat a little on your diet! You will find exercise equipment in the primary bedroom ready for you when you wake or before bed to help you sleep that much better.
Getting out the door quickly will be possible with 4 roomy bathrooms for your guests. Relax in a bubble bath in the garden tub, and keep all the dirty clothes washed and ready for the next fabulous undertaking like a trip to The Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway, in the washer and dryer tucked away in the half bath.
Outdoor Areas
Giving you an excuse to enjoy the glorious scenery you are a part of, the oversized front porch gives every guest in your party another place to be together. Swing your cares away on the old-fashioned porch swing or rock away the time as you feel the breeze blowing and hear the sounds of nature singing you a song. Let the kiddos bring out some games or read books as you make memories and all of your senses are happily filled.
When the sky gets dark and the temperature cools off, warm by the fire in a comfy Adirondack chair by the perfectly placed outdoor pit and add to the ambiance of the outdoors. From all of the outings, muscles you didn’t know you had might be sore. A dip in the outdoor hot tub is just what the doctor ordered. Take advantage of the hanging lights and stay up past bedtime in this outdoor paradise.
