Our favorite place to stay in the area! Quiet, relaxing, secluded mountaintop cabin but still within 4 miles of the main drag in Pigeon Forge! The cabin was almost 1400 sq ft, 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths with washer/dryer, dishwasher, 2 outside deck living spaces and plenty of fenced in yard for the fur baby! The entire cabin was clean (we didnt even use the upstairs bedroom/living area) and had 3 flatscreen tvs with satellite viewing channels. It also had trashbags, cleaning supplies, ice trays, pots/pans, wine glasses and dinnerware, aa well as Pam grilling spray, salt/pepper, and a Keurig station! There was an abundant supply of extra pillows and blankets, as well! We will definitely return...we spent a week in August and also a week in September here in Mansard House and Blackburn House...Mansard is the larger of the two cabins but the Blackburn House has the best front covered-porch with rockers and a porch swing,, for those dreary, rainy days!

Just perfect!

My husband and I spent Monday thru Friday this last week for our summer getaway/anniversary. It was so cute and comfortable! It was like staying at grandma’s house! The owner was super accommodating and allowed our dog and the new family kitten despite last minute unforeseen changes in plans. Tim rocked! We loved it so much we even extended our stay another night! My favorite was the porch. At night the katydids are so incredible to listen to! So serene! We will be back and truly cannot wait!

Perfect Private Getaway!

Our stay was wonderful! Way up on the top of the Smokies! We brought our 2 dogs with us and they had a great time too, especially with the fenced in yard! Great place to stay overall if your looking to be way up in the mountains:)

Needed R & R

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay. The cabin was a perfect size and it was nice to have a fenced area for our dogs who came with us. The birds’ songs, sound of rain on the roof, and sleeping with the windows open made this the perfect trip. Many thanks to Tim who immediately responded to all communication.

Attention to detail

The cabin is great, especially for dogs! I will continue to book for future visits. Plenty of towels, decent water pressure, quiet. My favorite is the attention to detail! Two small emergency lanterns, 2 rain coats, paper towels/extra toilet paper, etc. Small parking space. The communication was easy and timely

Wonderful stay!

We had a great time staying at the Blackburn House. The cabin was perfect for 2 people. The loft bedroom was quaint!. Couldn't get enough of the porch swing! It was cozy and comfortable. It was also well equipped. We enjoyed using the gas grill as well. The shower was the only less-than-perfect part of the stay. The well placed hand rails helped a lot. We would definitely return here on our next trip to the area. We loved the beautiful setting and the gorgeous views.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Kresica

Host profile image
As a lifelong business manager and executive, Tim Kresica has enjoyed success in the building products industry. As a native son of Chicago, IL, his education and career path eventually led him to opportunities in both Florida and North Carolina. In 2014, the majesty of the Great Smoky Mountains beckoned him to Tennessee where he now lives and works as Resident Manager of Havens on the Ridge in Pigeon Forge.
Tim has always founded his work ethic on a dedication to quality products and services, and fulfilling customer needs in an uplifting, positive way. With every undertaking and objective, he applies his belief that details are important.
Personally, Tim enjoys amateur photography….engages the great outdoors…..and embraces faith-based worship.

Why they chose this property

Eastern Tennessee's abundant beauty, tempo, and sense of community are enjoyable throughout four distinct seasons. Prompted by a lifelong affection for the Great Smoky Mountains, my search for solace led to a unique opportunity for developing an existing property into a mountain retreat for adults desiring tranquil and respite on a year-round basis. Havens on the Ridge offers both... while being ideally located a short distance from the majestic Smoky Mountains as well as the entertainment and adventures of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
The property was originally owned by the Blackburn family as their primary residence and boasts a "Gathering House" cabin for special occasions. Their family tree includes Michael Blackburn who achieved notoriety as the World's Greatest Sharpshooter. The property history sparked a special interest within me, and each day I'm thankful to now call Havens on the Ridge my home as caretaker.

What makes this property unique

Beyond the tranquility, privacy, and comfort of Havens on the Ridge, we strive to provide a "home-away-from-home" getaway that also offers an "away from it all" feeling at the same time. Having a Resident Manager onsite ensures any need or issue that might arise during your stay will be dealt with promptly.
