Gatlinburg Secret Splash
Location: Gatlinburg, Tennessee
Description
Slip away for a romantic weekend, a girls’ getaway, or a fun family vacation to this charming 1- bedroom, 1 ½-bathroom cabin for 4 in the Smoky Mountains. Less than 3 miles from downtown Gatlinburg, Gatlinburg Secret Splash keeps you close to the attractions without sacrificing peaceful mountain surroundings! Tucked among the trees, you'll relax on your own back deck, swim in your private indoor pool, feel at home with warm wood interiors, soak in the heart-shaped jetted tub, play around in the rec room, or whip up meals in the fully equipped kitchen!
Gatlinburg Secret Splash also has those conveniences you appreciate at home, including high-speed Wi-Fi, a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, a charcoal and gas grill for cookouts, and a washer/dryer. You’ll have plenty to do at the cabin, lots to explore downtown, and great spaces where you can relax and enjoy time with family and friends in this lovely Gatlinburg cabin.
Living Room
An open floorplan makes this cozy cabin feel more spacious and lets you visit with other guests in the living room and kitchen. Exposed wood beams, high ceilings, and windows all around the room keep the space feeling light and bright. After hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, shopping and exploring in downtown Gatlinburg, or playing at area attractions, this comfortable living room is the perfect place to relax.
It’s furnished with a plush sofa and matching chair, along with tabletop lamps for reading and a big screen TV on the fireplace mantel. Hang out here to watch a ball game, enjoy a drink while you watch late-night shows, or have a peaceful afternoon of reading and relaxing.
Kitchen
A perk of a private mountain cabin – versus a cramped hotel room – is having a place to make and enjoy meals. Gatlinburg Secret Splash boasts a fully equipped kitchen where you can whip up snacks, cook homemade favorites, or just store leftovers after going out for a meal downtown. It’s outfitted with black appliances – a refrigerator, dishwasher, built-in microwave, and stove/oven – along with countertop essentials like a coffeemaker, toaster, and knife set.
Whether you’re keeping it simple or making a family meal for the holidays, you’ll find kitchen tools to create great meals. Check out our blog for easy in-cabin meal ideas throughout the year (especially around the holidays), order one of our gift baskets with lots of great local snacks, or just order a pizza and have a laid-back night in the cabin.
Dining Table
Gatlinburg Secret Splash has a high-top table for 4, so you can sit down for meals in the privacy of your cabin. Have a romantic candlelit dinner for 2, a quick breakfast before heading into town, or a family meal while you watch TV and relax. Surrounded by the Smoky Mountain trees peeking through the windows, it’s a peaceful place to eat and spend time with family and friends.
Rec Room
It’s game time! Having a place to play inside the cabin is always a plus, whether it’s a rainy day, a cold winter night that keeps you inside, or a summer day when you need a break from the heat. The all-log room is full of mountain charm and features a pool table and an arcade game for fun. There is also a TV mounted in the corner, so you can have a show or movie on while you play around.
Loft Bedroom
The loft bedroom in Gatlinburg Secret Splash is a nice retreat after busy days. The 4-poster king-size bed calls for early nights and mornings sleeping in. Flip on the bedside lamps and do a little reading, or turn on the TV and watch movies while you relax in bed. Just steps away, a heart-shaped jetted tub is the place to pamper yourself with a soothing soak. Climb in for a romantic evening and enjoy the tree-studded views through the windows next to you.
Private Indoor Pool
Gatlinburg Secret Splash is more than just a beautiful cozy cabin. It offers an amenity you usually only get in a large group cabin: a private indoor pool! A little oasis of its own, the pool room has a bistro-style table and a large lounger where you can relax while the kids splash around. Year-round, enjoy playing around in your private pool.
(7' x 16' | 5 feet deep)
Outdoor Spaces
No vacation to the Smokies is complete without some time spent in the great outdoors. At Gatlinburg Secret Splash, two private decks feature tree-studded views and relaxing amenities. Grab a drink or a book and enjoy the breeze as you sit in the rocking chairs and unwind. Fire up the charcoal or gas grill for a cookout on a nice day. Sit down for meals at the dining table for 4. Or end the night with a soothing soak in the outdoor hot tub – with plenty of privacy.
Other Amenities
Gatlinburg Secret Splash offers relaxing outdoor spaces, fun amenities like a private pool and game room, and a location just a few miles from downtown Gatlinburg. But it also offers conveniences that make stays easier when you’re away from home. Take advantage of high- speed Wi-Fi when you want to stay connected or find out what’s happening downtown, or bring along your favorite music to put in the CD player. On cool mountain nights, cozy up in front of the gas fireplace with family and friends. The cabin also has a washer/dryer, making it easy to pack light and freshen up after hikes or before heading into town.
Local Fun
Gatlinburg Secret Splash is just minutes from downtown Gatlinburg, which means you’re always close to the area’s best attractions, great restaurants, delicious desserts, outdoor fun, and annual events hosted in town. When you’re ready to explore downtown Gatlinburg, check out:
Great Smoky Mountains National Park
With more than 800 miles of trails to explore, the national park – offering FREE admission – offers opportunities for hiking, biking, horseback riding, fishing, swimming, picnicking, and more!

"OMG!!!! My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay here. The cabin was very clean, relaxing and nicely tucked away. The only negative thing is that the pools water temperature was the same as the hot tub so we were not able to fully enjoy the pool as we wanted. Otherwise, I highly recommend Gatlinburg Secret Splash!!!!!"

"The cabin was very nice and we had a wonderful stay. It would have been nice if the waterfall on the pool worked, but it wasn't really a problem."

"Second time staying at Gatlinburg Secret Splash. There now. I love this cabin especially the private swimming pool. Will probably schedule again for fall."

"Had one of best weekends in a very long time! The cabin was perfect! The location was perfect! We rented a jeep, because my 1 ton dually was a little much for the driveway, but we really enjoyed the jeep as well! I will definitely recommend to all of my friends and family, and will MOST DEFINITELY be back!!!"

"My husband and I stayed at the secret splash for a much needed get away. It was fabulous. The cabin was tucked away for a feeling of being out in the wilderness surrounded by the trees and Mountain View’s and yet we were only a couple of miles to shops and restaurants. The heart shaped tub was so nice. The hot tub, which was on the top deck, was fantastic with that beautiful view. Having our own private pool was just so fantastic. So much better than a cruise.......didn’t have to chat with anyone else but my totally hot husband....."

"Gatlinburg secret splash is great if your looking for an indoor pool! Very romantic couples cabin"

"This is for Gatlinburg Secret Splash! This was our first time going to the Smokey Mountains and getting a cabin. We have rented rental homes before mostly at the beach though. The heated pool was an amazing amenity in the middle of winter to have. The cabin was clean really the only bad thing was forks were missing from silverware (assume a past guest stole or lost them so we replaced them). Having a pool and hottub and privacy was amazing a perfect socially-distanced vacation in the middle of a pandemic. The only comments/recommendations I have that could maybe make the experience better are: To put the video of the drive to the cabin on the page so you can see it before you rent it. Luckily this one wasn't too bad but some of the cabins are on such steep/scary roads I with my fear of heights would have not been able to get to them... Also have weekly rental rates/discounts for people that want longer than a few days. Last comment is there is nothing blocking the sunrise in the giant window so be ready to wake up in a bright room in the morning!."

"We have used Cabins for You several times. The cabins are always clean and nice. This most recent stay was at Secret Splash. Our only complaint was the private pool was a little too cold to be enjoyable. We will definitely use Cabins for You for our future stays."

"We had a very pleasant trip during our stay. The thing that most impressed us was the coziness of the place. The attractions were very impressive for tourists and were nearby and available. We cannot wait to come back with our whole family."
