Moonshine Cabin with a nice yard on the creek in the shadows of the Smokies

Escape to a peaceful mountain retreat where comfort meets the outdoors. This newly renovated cabin sits on a spacious, level lot—tucked away enough for privacy, yet conveniently close to the Foothills Parkway and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Enjoy a game of “Sandy” pickleball on our grass court, relax on the screened-in porch, or gather around the fire pit for a cozy evening under the stars. A gentle creek runs through the property, adding the perfect touch of tranquility to your stay.

With easy access, ample parking (including space for larger vehicles), and plenty of room to spread out, this cabin is ideal for a relaxing getaway with family or friends. Whether you’re exploring nearby attractions or simply enjoying the peaceful setting, this is your spot to slow down and recharge.

Newly renovated cabin in the shadows of the Great Smoky Mountains and convenient to Gatlinburg, Asheville and Knoxville. Enjoy the screened in porch, running creek and fire pit or the large flat yard. This cabin is convenient to I-40 and the Foothills Parkway has plenty of parking for larger vehicles. Just a few miles from hiking, white water rafting and zip lining. The cabin has Xfinity high speed internet so you can stay connected while you are on vacation. Book your stay at our unique cabin!

Cozy little cabin duck off. Loved the quietness. It was easy to find. Everything was cleaned when we got there. Loved the backyard. Only problem I had was the grass not being cut. Host did let me know that it wasn't cut due to it had been raining but other than that I didn't have any problems while I was there. Any questions that I asked was answered. It had everything that I needed to cook with. If your looking for a nice quiet place this is it!!!

Response from VrboOwner on 21 Aug 2023
Fred thanks for staying with us and thanks for the review. You may want to take 411 which is off exit 432 to get to Sevierville and Pigeon Forge. Depending on traffic you can usually get to Sevierville/Pigeon Forge area in about 35-45 minutes depending on your destination.
