Smokies Sanctuary Cabin

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Smokies Sanctuary is a beautiful, true log cabin bordering Great Smoky Mountains National Park, which allows for privacy and great wildlife viewing. This cabin is easily accessible yet offers wonderful views of the woods, mountains, and valley. With this tranquil location, it’s hard to believe how convenient it is to all the excitement of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Townsend and the entrances to Metcalf Bottoms and Cades Cove in the park are also just minutes away.

In addition to its fantastic location, Smokies Sanctuary is so wonderfully decorated, furnished, and equipped, you may not want to leave the cabin.
Each side of the three-sided covered wrap-around porch offers different great views, which can be enjoyed from porch swings, rockers, a log table with benches, and/or the fantastic large hot tub! In the yard, you’ll find a park-style grill, a firepit with a grate, a picnic table, various mature hardwood trees, and plenty of room for the kids to burn off some energy. Inside, you’ll be impressed by the hand-hewn log beams, soaring cathedral ceilings, large picture windows, stacked stone gas fireplace, Aspen log furniture, fantastic decor, and plenty of in-cabin entertainment. The main floor includes the living room, two king-size bedrooms, two bathrooms (one with a shower and tub combination in the front bedroom and one with a shower close to the back bedroom), kitchen, and dining room.

Upstairs includes the remarkable large master suite with soaring ceilings, hand-hewn beams, wood floors, an Aspen log four-poster king-size bed and furniture, a beautiful dormer sitting area, lots of windows, and a bathroom with a whirlpool tub, separate shower, enclosed toilet, and double sink vanity. Also upstairs is a gorgeous loft recreation room that has a pool table, an air hockey table, and plenty of comfortable seating with wonderful views of the woods and Little Round Top Mountain.

The living room and all three bedrooms are equipped with Smart TVs that allow you to stream movies and shows from your own Netflix, Amazon Prime, or other accounts as well as watch live cable TV. Each of these rooms are also equipped with a Blu-ray, DVD player, and/or a VCR. There are movies, books, board games, and card games available for your enjoyment during your stay.

In addition, Smokies Sanctuary offers ample parking, ramp access to the main level, a fully equipped kitchen, a washer and dryer, free WiFi, and unlimited local and long distance phone calls within the U.S. and Canada for your convenience.

Worst experience renting a cabin
So when we got there the driveway was covered with leaves so bad that we almost did not make it up the driveway. Then once we got up to the top could not tell where the driveway ended and I actually drove off the end of the driveway. Once we got inside Cobb webs hanging in doorways and lights. Closet doors were broke and did not stay closed. Toilet seats broke and the toilet paper holders were broke. Leaves covered up the back deck. So many leaves could not use the fire pit. Grill was full of used charcoal. Hot tub smelled like it had dead fish in it. Called and called and finally after about 3 hrs of calling someone showed up. But I am still waiting on the property manager to call me. I called on 11-4 and checked out on 11-6 and no has still yet to call.

This property looks amazing in the pictures but it is not!
We were super excited to stay in this beautiful cabin listed on VRBO but when we arrived it didn’t take long to realize the pictures were misleading. The whole house was so dusty you could write your name in it, cobwebs are hanging on all the beams, there’s mold on the shower doors, the hot tub was disgusting and not working properly, the laundry door was broken but stood up so it appeared intact. You could tell no one had prepared the cabin for renters. I will say that the management company did send maintenance to fix the hot tub, dust and vacuum the following day, but the dust job was comical as they only dusted the objects I sent pictures of. There was still dust under the lamps on the shades, and you could clearly see where they dusted around objects instead of removing things and getting it completely clean. The cabin is older and needs a remodel but if cleaned properly with working appliances it would still be good. The location is perfect and the neighborhood is lovely.

Property is very poorly maintained.
The properry is not managed. We were not able to access the cabin for the first two nights because of icy and incredibly steep driveway. We. were promised by the management company that the manager would help. After 3 days he didnt even call us. Supposidly he was snowed in when the whole area was fine. Kitchen was dirty and ill equiped. No hot water in the kitchen where the faucet is broken. Pots and pans from the early 70s and dirty. No large pot to even make a soup or stew. Upstairs (master) shower is broken. And we wcould keep going on ... VRBO was also not helpful at all. Even when we called amd told them we were stranded in the area with nonaccess to the cabin and no place to stay nearby. Basically they charge you to put you in contact with people and then tell you to manage on your own ... a disgrace.

Property Maintenance and Kitchen Supplies were less than acceptable - would not recommend.
Property is Poorly Maintained. Kitchen faucet is broken. Blinds are bent. Cobwebs and dust and mice! Old Appliances. Roper stove heats unevenly. Burners have hot spots. Wallpaper peeling. Floor to Ceiling windows in game room are so dirty you can't see out of them. Kitchen has very few or poor quality supplies. No can opener. No knife bigger than a 2 inch paring knife. No mixing bowls or serving bowls. Old tupperware in the cupboard was DIRTY! No measuring spoons. One - 1 cup - measuring cup. One dishtowel. Some of the pans were rusty, others had burnt food on them. The charcoal grill is about 12" x 12" - maybe good for hot dogs. Air hockey doesn't work rigth. Pool table isn't level. Light bulbs were burnt. There are these little green evergreens with christmas light everywhere as decoration - NONE of the lights work or can even be plugged in. Decks have not been cleared of leaves or branches in a while. Cushions on dining room chairs are torn and stuffing is exposed. No welcome book. No instructions on what to do when you check out. In general, this property was a big disappointment. Very poorly maintained and supplied - especially for the cost!

Amazing place to tour and see all the sites.
The cabin is great , very beautiful, not very clean in side cobwebs everywhere , baseboards so dirty, broom is not even a broom , the big windows are great if you could see out of them , grass needed mowed , property needs maintenance, glad we didn't bring kids, shows pictures of gas grill but no grill . Fire pit but no wood for it. There could have been more amenities, coffee pot but no filters, has a hot tub but it doesn't light up or jets don't work .just needs a little TLC!!! Cabin is beautiful and we would come back again .

Nice cabin
This is an older cabin but still very nice. The only complaint I have about it is the master bedroom is huge but the shower is very small and the toilet is in a closet and is very narrow and small. The other two bathrooms are good sized. It’s in a very nice neighborhood but once you go up the driveway it’s like it by itself. I would rent this cabin again.

Thanksgiving Stay
The property is located in a very nice clean neighborhood. We were able to take walks around the neighborhood. The driveway is very steep. It’s not high in the mountains..but well located to get into town. The cabin is clean. The two bedrooms on the first floor are not as spacious as we thought they looked in the pictures. The master bedroom on the top floor is very spacious. But it was comfortable for the 5 adults. All the bathrooms (3) shower heads do not have wide shower spray or enough flow. But the bathrooms are clean. The kitchen came fully stocked. We had a everything we needed to cook our meals. The internet service was great but the tv cable service was intermittent. The board games were old..wish we they had puzzles. Overall..we would stay there again!

Just right
We were in a great location. 15 minutes from Pigeon Forge and about 12 minutes from Gatlinburg. Our family of 6 with 4 boys 12 and under had a blast at the house and in the surrounding areas. The house was in the back of a neighborhood, but you felt secluded in the woods. It was nice and private. We saw great wildlife around the property while we were on the porch in the rocking chairs. The pool table, air hockey, and hot tub kept us all entertained when we relaxed back at the house in between our adventures. Wear Valley had great little restaurants too.

Beautiful cabin but terrible management company
Very nice cabin with 3 king sized beds!! Seemed perfect for our family but upon arrival the lawn was overgrown, one of the beds was broken, the TV's did not pick up any channels, no internet, floors seemed a little dingy with no broom or mop to clean up after ourselves, porch had leaves and debris which made me worry about critters, no lights in the grill area and we ended up spending almost a week with a dead mouse behind the refrigerator.... I wasn't too worried about most of those things but when I found the dead mouse after a sweet tea mishap ( the worst to clean up without a mop) we called the "management company", Vacasa. My husband spoke with someone out of state who seemed unconcerned with our problems. They did send someone a couple of days after our call to finally mow down the little trees around the fire pit but the rest seemed to be our problems to just deal with. Vacasa sent a review link, I explained my grievances fully expecting at least an acknowledgment but have heard nothing. I don't want money back or anything even though I don't think the cleaning fee was worth it. I just hope that the owners can see this and see what a disservice the management company is doing them. With all this being said, the location is ideal and the layout and size of the cabin was great!

Beautiful but needs more love and care
Beautiful cabin and in a wonderful location. Mouse droppings were on windowsills, floor and especially bad in oven drawer. Not good for a crawling baby. Mouse came out of fireplace and terrified my mother and grandchildren. My husband and I had to leave a day early for a rescheduled surgery and my mother and daughter were scared to stay with the mouse! There were lots of spiderwebs around and cabin needed a good dusting from top to bottom. Sidewalk was very slippery when damp. I almost fell carrying in our luggage. For such a beautiful cabin and location, it needs more cleaning and upkeep.

There were problems
Shower on the 3rd floor leaked through onto the bed in one of the 2nd floor bedrooms. This was reported early Saturday to Vacasa but no one ever responded. AC was not very effective. Elevator didn't work. Online access was problematic -- xfinity kept trying to take over, had to call Vacasa to get a password that was ridiculously long. Not enough seating in the living room. We had some trouble figuring out how to make the shower work.
