Welcome to Smoky Ridge! This newly renovated 6-bedroom cabin retreat sleeps 14 guests and is located in the beautiful Wears Valley area. You’ll enjoy the comfort of an amazing destination home with the reliability, amenities, and world-class service of a boutique hotel.
Our guests' five favorite things about this home:
1. You'll feel remote but not remote, with the energy of Pigeon Forge and Dollywood just 10 miles to the northeast and one of the least-traveled gates of Great Smoky Mountains National Park only 7 miles to the south.
2. The indoor pool was made for fun, with a poolside basketball hoop, a floating ping pong table, and relaxing lounge chairs for those who prefer to merely witness aquatic prowess.
3. The neighboring game room and theater will soak up some serious trip time. The theater has twin couches, bean bags, and LED mood lighting, while the game room features a foosball table, dartboard, multi-game standup arcade console, and a rustic wood skeeball machine.
4. The large, comfortable beds with clean, crisp linens. Five of the bedrooms have kings, while the sixth bedroom sports a queen-over-queen bunk. No twins or fulls are to be found.
5. The vaulted ceilings in the main living area make for a spacious and fun hang as the third-floor kitchen, dining room, and living room combine to offer epic views and serious coziness, while the overhead canoe chandelier and wall-mounted oar installation offer a fun nod to your surroundings.
AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team and a tech-enabled concierge to book services, such as fridge stocking, mid-stay cleanings, and private chefs. For anything you need (or never knew you needed), we’re at your service!
If you love spending time in nature, staying active, and celebrating wildlife, a trip to the Great Smoky Mountains is a must. Located along the Tennessee/North Carolina border and home to the country's most visited national park, the Smokies provide over 800 miles of hiking trails, rivers, and a good chance at a black bear sighting. The ancient mountains invite you to connect with one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world and walk among century-old trees. Talk about a step back in time!
