Perfect Location

We have been staying in Pigeon Forge area every year for over 20 years but this was our first time in this cabin. The cabin was perfect for our family within walking distance to the pool. We loved how it felt far from the busyness but we still very close to all of the locations we wanted to go. Definitely will be back!

Cozy and convenient!

We had a great stay at Gateway to the Smokies as a group of 4 adults and 1 infant. It was nice having one bedroom downstairs and one upstairs so we could have our separate spaces. It was also a plus for both bedrooms to have king beds. The fireplace and hot tub were great for chilly nights. Communication throughout the trip was seamless and check in/out was easy. We’d definitely stay here again!

Great location!

My husband and I stayed during Christmas. We brought our dogs with us. Communication was wonderful. They checked in with us to make sure we checked in easily. It was close to everything. It was close to Parkway, Kroger and a short drive to Gatlinburg and Sevierville. They didn't have a quilt on the upstairs bed but we found one in the closet. There was some construction going on next to the cabin so there was some noise in the mornings but besides that it was a super quiet area. We really enjoyed ourselves and look forward to coming back.
