We were thrilled to stay on a lake for 3 weeks this summer due to the horrible heat throughout the United States. Douglas Lake is clean and quiet and the dock right at the bottom of the 5 acre property is large enough to sit and enjoy the afternoon and swim.
The house is wonderful - so many memories have been saved and displayed throughout the house - quirky and fun throughout with a wonderful front porch, back porch, covered porch, outdoor shower, and hot tub. Super quiet as it is about 15 minutes from the main drag in Sevierville.
Tons to do with kids in the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area (it was our first time).
Tara (owner) was super helpful before and during the visit. Highly recommend!

This place was everything it promised it would be. I had viewed the Pioneer Cabin for almost a year and booked six months out from our recent trip May 28th - June 3rd. It is an authentic cabin, full of history. Everything was clean, the floating deck was our favorite hang out as well as the large Jacuzzi. While we had lots of outings, this place is magical and so relaxing. Our crew ranged from 4 years to 55 and we all loved it! I highly recommend it!!

My brother and I and our families and parents stayed a long weekend to celebrate my mom’s birthday. It’s not your typical cabin rental, it’s actually 2 very old, authentic cabins put together. Decor was authentic and matched the cozy cabin feel. It was great for relaxing and spending time together. We were able to easily run into town to grab food at a restaurant or the grocery store. It was also close to activities for the kids. The kitchen was stocked with all the things needed to prepare meals. The kids absolutely loved the upstairs bedroom nook! As stated the lake is down in the winter so I would also love to come back in the summer or spring to see that view as well. I would definitely recommend this place, especially if you ate looking for something outside of a cookie cutter cabin rental.

This is such a unique place. We loved the history, all of the antiques, and the paths outside. We were always finding something new and things that brought back childhood memories.
In many ways it was like stepping back in time, but we had all of the luxuries of a modern cabin. There were so many different areas to stop and relax and unwind, lots of room to explore and for the kids to play. It truly provided something for everyone no matter their age.
Will love bringing my family back again.

We had a perfect five nights, six day stay at this uniquely decorated and thoughtfully curated cabin. This was our fourth time visiting Douglas Lake, and the Pioneer Trading Post is our favorite cabin/rental so far. The cabin had everything we needed and is very well stocked. So much thought has gone into this place! We had an initial HVAC problem, but the owner arranged a repair quickly and was so helpful and personable. The sleeping porch was a hit, as was the outdoor table on the deck where we ate most meals. The lake is beautiful, but we also enjoyed the landscaping and walking the trail on the property. Thank you for a fabulous time.
