About this property

Where Mountain views and quiet moments come naturally, it’s s’more than enough

If you’re looking for a place to truly rest and unwind, you’ve found it. Guests often say this cabin feels cozy, peaceful, and like a home away from home.

Nestled among the trees just above Pigeon Forge, the cabin offers expansive views of the Smoky Mountains, including iconic Mount LeConte. Tucked away along a quiet ridge, you’ll enjoy excellent privacy and frequent wildlife sightings—including deer and, occasionally, a black bear passing through. (The photos truly don’t do it justice.)

Inside, natural light floods the cabin through the prow-front windows, allowing mountain views from most rooms. On chilly days, the real wood-burning fireplace creates the perfect setting for a warm, cozy evening. Curl up with a book in an oversized chair in the bedroom or step out onto the balcony with your favorite beverage and take in the view.

After a day of hiking in the Smokies or exploring town, come home and relax in the hot tub or unwind on the spacious deck surrounded by nature.

If solitude isn’t what you’re craving, Pigeon Forge is just 10 minutes away, offering restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. Traveling with kids? The game room features a pool table and vintage arcade games, and Dollywood is nearby, making this cabin a great choice for families as well as couples.

Important Note

Please note there are three sets of stairways and approximately 20 steps to reach the cabin, with a narrow sidewalk between the first and second set. Please take this into consideration before booking.

Host was great, location was great! Cabin wasn't too high up or too low and had a good view of the mountains in the distance! Close to Dollywood, Gatlinburg and Piegon Forge. Honestly a good location for either of these destinations. It was clean, had just what we needed for 2 nights, and private.

The cabin is beautifully situated on the side of a mountain. It's peaceful and quiet. It was clean and we enjoyed the pool table. The beds were comfortable, the showers were steaming hot with good pressure, and the view from both stories was beautiful. If you have more than one large truck, you will likely struggle with the driveway and single lane road leading up to it. The sharp turn will require a lot of maneuvering.

Our stay at the Cabin was amazing as usual! This was our second stay here and it is beautiful. The view is amazing. The cabin is cozy and clean and well equipped, perfect for a wonderful getaway. Location is perfect for a quiet, peaceful and restful experience but only 10 to 15 minutes or so from the main attractions.

What a great spot for a great little weekend getaway. The cabin was nestled down a gravel drive, with PLENTY of privacy and an expansive view of the beautiful mountains. The location was perfect to drop into Dollywood and Pigeon Forge, but still feel like you are out in the woods. The cabin was immaculate, well stocked and such a great home base for the weekend activities. Check in was a breeze and the hosts were incredibly communicative, but also let us enjoy our stay without interruption. My pup LOVED the massive windows and basically stared off the porch all day. We’ll definitely be back!

Romantic Retreat with Spectacular Views!

Absolutely breathtaking views from the deck and hot tub! Everything was clean and updated. The secluded cabin was even more beautiful than the photos portrayed. It was nice to have the pool table for some extra fun. Check in was easy and John was a great host. Note that it is probably a good idea to have a 4 wheel drive to get up to the cabin. We rode a Harley and did have to park at the bottom of the driveway because of the loose gravel on the drive and parking area.

This cabin is amazing! Very clean. We had a blast with the pool table & cozy fireplace. This is probably the best view and privacy available in my opinion. Yet it is only 5 miles to Dollywood, Dollys Stampede, Patriot Park, Old Mill, downtown Pigeon Forge, ect... There’s a great pizza place right down the road. We drove from flat Florida in a full size, loaded down Yukon XL V8 4WD with a cargo extender on the back, 6 full grown adults, 2 dogs, & we made it up the driveway fine. There was plenty of room in the cabin: 2 to a bed-1 King, 2 Queens (1 couch pullout), 2 full bathrooms. We all took fairly quick showers, 1 right after another, saving laundry for after everyone was done & we had no issues with the water well needing to wait to build back up. Plenty of towels, blankets, pillows to use. The host John is super nice and responsive, very thorough with directions. We will definitely stay here again! We were here 6 nights during Thanksgiving week for Smokey Mountain Christmas. The crowds weren’t as crazy as expected, & we retreated to our quiet cabin in minutes. Things got really quiet Sunday after the holiday, we stayed until Monday. While in the cabin we saw a huge black bear (trying to get into the bear-proof garbage cans), 2 white rabbits, birds, squirrels, and chipmunks. It was cold, but only froze 1 night & we weren’t lucky enough to see snow this year. We could hear the Dollywood train whistle faint in the background. Good memories for a lifetime!

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It was spotless, comfortable, and ready for us when we arrived. The views are absolutely breathtaking—you truly can’t beat waking up to that scenery each morning, and the deck is perfect for soaking it all in. The hot tub was sparkling clean and so relaxing, and our kids loved every inch of the cabin, especially the game room.The cabin is in bear country, so be mindful and use the bear-proof trash cans conveniently located near the parking area. During our stay, we even had the wild experience of a bear wandering close by while we were in the hot tub! Thankfully, we were safe and able to step inside quickly, but it was definitely a reminder that this is their natural habitat. Just take normal precautions, stay aware, and you’ll be fine—it’s part of the mountain charm.We were especially grateful to find a pet-friendly cabin this nice, and we hope future guests help keep it that way by treating it with care. The host was responsive, kind, and made the whole process easy. We’d absolutely recommend booking this cabin for a beautiful, memorable getaway!

Beautiful Views

This cabin was beautiful and exactly as described! Lots of steps getting from the driveway to the front door, so just make sure you are not handicapped if you stay here. The views were stunning! Cabin was very clean and accommodating other than not having a grill but we just ordered out instead of grilling.

Nice and peaceful location. View was good but would definitely be great with no leaves on the trees. It is seasonal. The decks were very nice. It would be nice if the lower deck had a gate that could be closed, so furbabies and kids could not go off of it. Hot tub was great! No grill on sight. Kitchen was stocked but there really wasn't any 9x13 pans and some important utensils. We bring a lot of kitchen items from home. Beds were comfortable. The TV in the living room area is extremely small. The bedroom TV's were bigger. The upstairs loft area with chairs needed cleaned. The floors were pretty dirty up there. The upstairs bathroom is pretty small and the toilet had issues flushing at times. The refrigerator was leaking, so we had to keep wiping up the water from it. All and all not a bad place. Just needed a little TLC here and there. Would recommend and would stay again.

The cabin was nice and in a good location to what we were visiting in town. I thought it was odd that there was no handsoap in the whole house. It may just be me, but I don't travel with hand soap, we had to use our body wash to wash our hands after using the bathroom. I will pay better attention to amenities in the future. The upstairs toilet didn't flush so we couldn't use it, which was inconvenient in the middle of the night, but the owner was very nice about it and I understand that things break or don't work all the time. The hot tub was nice and the view was beautiful. Overall, we had a nice stay.

About the host

Hosted by John Thompson

Host profile image
We truly enjoy sharing our cabin with others. It is a very special place to us, and we feel blessed to be its stewards. When we’re here, our favorite thing to do is spend time in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park—hiking, slowing down, and experiencing the natural beauty all around us.

After a day outdoors, we love returning to the cabin to watch the clouds drift by and the sun cast shadows across the mountains as we unwind and decompress from modern life. Our hope is that guests feel the same sense of peace, rest, and connection during their stay.

Why they chose this property

Fox Run is a quiet, early development with spacious lots and abundant natural landscaping. The neighborhood is surrounded by mature trees and wildlife, creating a peaceful mountain setting where you can truly relax.

While the cabin feels tucked away and private, it’s still conveniently located just minutes from Pigeon Forge, making it easy to enjoy restaurants, attractions, and activities while returning to a calm, secluded space at the end of the day.

What makes this property unique

The cabin is position on a ridge, facing directly toward the Great Smoky Mountains and famous Mt Lacont. This unique location offers exceptional privacy and sweeping mountain views, while still being just 7 minutes from Pigeon Forge.

Unlike many mountain cabins, this home is positioned securely on the ridge like a traditional residence, rather than perched over steep terrain. This makes it feel more comfortable, accessible, and relaxing, especially for guests who prefer stunning views without the “cliffside” feeling.

This is truly our home away from home, and we care for it with the same attention and pride we do our own space. It’s a special place that’s best experienced in person, and we hope guests feel that the moment they arrive.
