Treat yourself to the stay of a lifetime at this mountainside cabin in the heart of rural Tennessee, ten miles from downtown Gatlinburg. Boasting breath-taking views of Mount Le Conte and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this place is perfect for fans of the great outdoors, offering plenty of opportunities to get reacquainted with Mother Nature. Soak up gorgeous mountain vistas from your very own private deck or make your way to Cosby Creek – the best local fishing spot – to prove your angling prowess to your fellow guests. Oh, and if you’re looking for somewhere to practise your golf swing, the Bent Creek Golf Course is just a short drive away. Ideal. The fun doesn’t stop when it’s time to head home, though – if anything, it’s just getting started. Show off your dunking skills on the communal basketball court, make a splash at the outdoor pool, or cosy up in the living room and while away the afternoon with a board game by the fire. Then when it’s time to eat, head out onto the deck and fire up the barbecue as the sun dips down between the mountains. Who knows – you might even catch...
