Located in Gatlinburg, this lovely cabin for $501 per night is a great option for your next trip. I hope to earn your stay and host your family/friends for your vacation and in turn help locals, like myself, keep the true cabin feel alive in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg Many people are choosing the Smoky Mountains because you can vacation and NOT be around 500,000 people if you choose. This is your PERFECT location. In between both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. You can be around people if you wish or you could not see a soul the entire time your there. Only 1 mile from the Gatlinburg bypass directly into Smoky Mountain National Park. UPDATES as of 11/15/23 - A few reviews noted linens and comforters. As of this date, I have replaced all of the comforters and blankets in the cabin and we have changed our linen company. Our linens are now supplied by a 3rd party and the cleaning company replaces the linens after each stay. The cabin has also been completely restrained and new cutlery and other such items. BOOK TODAY! Welcome to your mountain retreat! Your vacation starts here. Reviews matter! With well over 80 5 star reviews this is where you and your family need to be! **********LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION*********** This property is in the most sought after areas in the Smokey's. Best of Both Worlds is located right off of the spur which is the road that connects Pigeon Forge into Gatlinburg. You are no more then 5 miles from the world Famous Islands in Pigeon Forge and not even 1.3 miles from the Smokey Mountain Welcome Center and less then 5 miles from the absolute heart of Gatlinburg. MAKE SURE YOU READ THE REVIEWS! You will see most reviews boast how close you are to everything. Do not get stuck 50+ minutes in traffic trying to get to Gatlinburg or get car sick on a long winding road. ********************** This cabin is going to keep you smiling from the moment you turn into our wrap around driveway until you are soaking on the back patio in your private hot tub with just a view of nature and NOTHING ELSE! Situated on 2 acres you will not have to stare at your neighbors or fight for a place to park. If a true retreat is what you are looking for, this is it. As the reviews show, my cabin is private and full of appointments. We designed our cabin with families in mind. While every bedroom and play area boasts HD Television, we reserved the living room for family time. Sit by the gas fireplace during the colder months and just enjoy your family. Don't worry, downstairs is a full playroom full of all kinds of goodies like HUGE 4k SMART TV and DVD player, pool table, board games, and so much more to keep you entertained while your here. Check out our new HUGE 12 foot long dinning table with seating easily for everyone in your party. No more not being able to spend time together. The entire group can now enjoy time together at this amazing addition! The outside front features rocking chairs and plenty of sitting areas on a wraparound porch so you can enjoy a BEAUTIFUL Smoky Mountains relaxing day/evening. Love outdoor cooking? I have both gas and charcoal grill options available. This home has been completely remodeled and features new appliances, wood floors, hot tub, premium cable TV, GOOD wifi, and much more. WiFi is important to many. My wife makes her living on the internet so a cabin with great signal is important. Many cabins in the Smokies have to use satellite wifi. Ours is true high speed cable internet. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with all stays of 4 days or longer I also include, FOR FREE, access (for up to 6 people) to the Pigeon Forge Recreation Center which is just 5 miles away and features an indoor and outdoor pool along with a gym and a library. Additional people are just $3.00 a day for access to the facilities. ******************** DETAILS MATTER! With so many 5 star reviews the theme is the same - Quality of the cabin and ability to reach the owner! My wife and I are always looking for new ways to make this cabin amazing. We decorate for all of the holidays. The other thing so important is I try and stay 100% available. I answer almost every inquiry not only within the hour but within minutes. My phone is direct linked to my profile. Even when out of the country I make sure I pay to stay connected. Do not get stuck with an out of touch owner. Things happen. They have happened with this cabin. The difference is, those people still left 5 star reviews because I was right there working with them to solve the problem the best we could. *************************** Bedroom 1 - Upstairs, 1 King Bed with private bathroom Bedroom 2 - Main level, 1 Queen Bed with shared bathroom Bedroom 3 - Downstairs, Bunkbeds - Full on bottom, single on top Bonus Room - Downstairs, Pull out queen size couch that can sleep 2 comfortably Living room - Pull out queen sleeper, pull out single ottoman Flat screen HD Televisions in every room.

BluRay player in downstairs rec room Custom handmade furniture Private Professional Grade Cedar Playground This property enjoys being on a very quiet road giving you the peace your looking for. This is not in a busy cabin area full of packed on top of each other rentals where you cannot even find a place to park your vehicle besides on the road. Those places are horrible! My cabin is on almost 2 acres. Even though its not a usable 2 acres it provides the PERFECT buffer! You will have all the privacy you are looking for. Even in the winter. Unique Benefits: One of the things I never liked about going to Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge is how long it takes to get anywhere! At Best of Both Worlds it is less than a 5 minute drive to Food City and many restaurants including the local favorite steak house! You can be to downtown Gatlinburg in under 10 minutes and you are less than 10 minutes from Pigeon Forge including amazing locations like the Islands! CLOSE TO OBER GATLINBURG! *****A REAL PET FRIENDLY RENTAL!****** NEW ON SITE PET CHALET!! OK, Chalet is a stretch but lets face it.....we really treat our pets better then we treat ourselves right! Well, we are one of the few cabins that accept pets (on a per case basis) but we have found that our doggie guests have been some of the most wonderful guests we have had. As the owner of a Bull Mastiff my wife and I find it nearly impossible to find a place to board him for under $50.00 a day and then we have to pay extra to have him walked, tucked in, read a story, get a bath and all the other things they get us for! Usually it costs more to board our pets then it does to stay! We only have a couple of rules about pets - We require guests bringing pets to kennel their pet while out of the home for the safety of the pet and the home and instead of just putting them in the laundry room we have done what I think may be one of the only ones in our area...ESPECIALLY at our price range....we have dedicated a full room (about 6x7 room) as a private comfortable space for your pet while your out enjoying the town. The space includes a cabin style bed, KONG dog bed, pet barrier, food/water bowls, and we even have a CD/Radio player in the space used to keep your pet calm. Now you can go out and enjoy your day and not worry about what your coming back to. FOR OUR NON PET OWNERS: We take extra measures in making sure that all pets that come to our property are up to date in their shots and have had all their flee/tick treatments. We take extra care in cleaning the property to remove any pet odors or dander. Our cleaning crew goes the extra mile. And more importantly...we ONLY allow responsible pet owners and have been extremely happy with their level of care and respect for our property. If you do have an extreme allergy to pets we may not be the best cabin for you. But I can tell you, my sister has pet allergies and does not have trouble at this home. *******FREE ARIAL TRAMWAY TICKETS FOR ENTIRE WINTER SEASON********** For all stays over 4 days we provide up to 6 free tram tickets during January 1st-February 28th. As a long time visiter to Ober Gatlinburg to snowboard I believe the easiest (not quickest) way to get there is the tramway. This makes it so you can park right in the middle of town and take the 3 mile tram right to the welcome center of Ober. The tram drops you right off inside the building. Why take the chances on those steep switchback roads? Especially if its snowing! ***************************** Suitability: Children: We purchased this cabin because of our 2.5 year old! He loves it! There are stairs in this property. The stairs lead both upstairs and downstairs. This property features a bedroom on the main level so if you are traveling with guests that cannot use stairs, this is perfect for them. Only stairs would be the couple walking up to main entrance. I hope I have explained our cabin well to you and have encouraged you to either "BOOK NOW" or send a message for more information. Don't worry, unless it is the middle of the night you will hear back quickly so do not book somewhere else without at least reaching out. I would love the opportunity to earn your family vacation spot. Warm blessings from my family to yours, Michael and Jennifer
