Serenity is a warm, upscale home located in the heart of the Great Smoky Mountains. Enjoy historic touches with modern upgrades in this stunning, 4 bedroom property. This home includes a welcoming living room complete with a wood-burning stove, foosball table, flat-screen TV, and comfortable furnishings. The cabin provides a full kitchen and dining area along with a grill for outdoor barbecuing. The outdoor deck with spectacular long range mountain views is the centerpiece of the home. Serenity comfortably sleeps ten and includes two luxurious kings in both master bedrooms, a queen in the third room, and two sets of twin bunk beds in the fourth bedroom.


Serenity is the perfect place to enjoy the mountain pace of life.

Enjoy stunning views of The Great Smoky Mountains for a backdrop to this secluded, yet ultra-convenient home.

Stunning views inside a beautiful mountain home. It had everything we needed for a great stay with family including 4 small children. The pool and hot tub were clean and not too far from the property. Tubing down the creek to East Laporte was also a highlight!

This place was absolutely amazing and perfect for our family! My siblings have lived on Suntrace Circle, the next road up, for many many years. We came for a family gathering on their property and it was perfect to be so close by. We were doing a potluck supper Saturday evening, and I brought a few utensils in case I didn’t find them in the kitchen. I shouldn’t have worried… The house had absolutely everything we could possibly need and more. We never did make it down to the pool and hot tub to enjoy them, but that was fine. When we weren’t at my family’s property, we wanted to spend as much time in the house as we possibly could. Sitting on the deck in the mornings was heavenly. Thank you for everything! We will definitely be back.

Perfect family vacation

The perfect balance of solitude and action. Once you get into the home you forget that you have neighbors. But if you want to shop or go to a restaurant, you're a 15 minute drive away. We plan on making this an annual trip and we'll be looking to rebook this home as long as its available.
