Honeymoon, Anniversary, Special getaway, Pickleball, Firepit, Fireplace, VIEWS

When you stay at The Nest, you will experience the feeling of being secluded from Pigeon Forge while in reality, you’re only 6 minutes away. Surrounded by The Smoky Mountains, there are breathtaking views directly from your balcony and windows as well as everywhere else you look – even the ability to see all the way to the mountains of North Carolina from the bench swing at the top of our property at The Overlook.

This 2 story, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cabin is perfect for your next trip. It sleeps up to 4 guests so come by yourselves, with another couple or bring your family. Relax on the balcony in the morning with your coffee while listening to the birds and at night, be mesmerized by the gorgeous sunset over the mountains in front of you while enjoying a glass of wine. The hot tub on the front porch makes it secluded from others.

The Nest is on our property called The Mustard Seed property and has multiple amenities to keep you busy during your stay. If you have other family and friends who want to join you, this is the perfect location since The Mustard Seed (TMS) consists of 8 cabins all in walking distance of each other, but not on top of each other, 12 acres that you can walk around and mountain views to help provide you with a wonderful, relaxing stay. TMS is perfect for a Family Reunion or Destination Wedding (contact Kathryn for Wedding packages and information). We look forward to hosting you.
