Cozy A-Frame Cabin w/ Hot Tub • 3 Min to Downtown
Sarah’s Deer Haven — Your Fairytale Cabin Escape
Charming A-frame cabin just 3 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg! Soak in your private 5-person hot tub while surrounded by the peaceful sounds of a cascading mountain brook. Tastefully decorated with local carvings and crafts, this cozy mountain retreat offers paved access—no steep or scary roads—and only 20 steps to your front door. Minutes from Ober Gatlinburg, community pools, and all the best Smoky Mountain adventures. Perfect for couples and families. No pets.
A Quiet Mountain Retreat
Discover true tranquility at Sarah’s Deer Haven, a secluded chalet nestled on a peaceful hillside just minutes from the excitement of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Wander nearby nature trails where black bears often roam—adding a magical touch to your Smoky Mountain getaway. After a day of hiking, sightseeing, or visiting Dollywood, unwind in this cozy mountain sanctuary designed for comfort and relaxation.
Perfect Location & Easy Access
Enjoy the best of both worlds with quick access to downtown Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Dollywood. Take Ski Mountain Road directly to Ober Gatlinburg for skiing, mountain coasters, ice skating, and family-friendly adventures. Plus, the famous Gatlinburg Aerial Tramway glides right overhead, looking like a spaceship soaring above the treetops!
As our guest, you’ll also have full access to the Chalet Village community pools—ideal for cooling off during warm summer days.
Cozy & Spacious Comfort
Our private chalet boasts vaulted ceilings, a charming winding staircase, and three spacious bedrooms—perfect for families or anyone seeking a peaceful escape:
Yogi’s Loft: King bed with full bathroom and shower upstairs
Pooh’s Corner: King bed with ensuite half bath
Paddington’s Pad: Queen bed with full bath featuring a jacuzzi tub and stand-up shower
Relax on the gated deck, or enjoy some nostalgic fun with the classic Pac-Man arcade system inside.
A Personal Touch
Named after my sister Sarah, the original owner, this cabin holds a special place in our hearts. We’ve created a peaceful haven that balances serene mountain seclusion with convenient access to Gatlinburg’s vibrant shops, dining, and attractions. We hope your stay here will be as memorable and magical as ours.
