Living Room
As soon as you step inside your creekside cottage in Gatlinburg, you’ll be struck by its eclectic design. Antique pieces paired with modern accents fill the living room. You’ll find a large leather couch alongside 2 padded glider chairs. Between these chairs is a stone-set gas fireplace — the perfect place to warm up in the Smoky Mountains on chilly evenings.
Also, enjoy extra seating, a large ottoman, reading lamps, a flatscreen TV, and a DVD player in this welcoming space. After a long day of shopping for Appalachian souvenirs, exploring museums along the Parkway, or hiking to waterfalls in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, you’ll appreciate a cozy living room to unwind.
Kitchen
Featuring oak-colored cabinets and stainless steel appliances, the full kitchen at your vacation home is bright, open, and airy, offering you a comfortable place to prepare all your favorite homemade meals while you’re away. Stop by the Gatlinburg Farmers Market on your way to the cozy cabin and pick up all the seasonal fruits and vegetables you know your group will love.
Essentials provided include a double-door refrigerator, dishwasher, electric range, standard drip coffeemaker, microwave, and toaster. You’ll also have pots, pans, dishes, cutlery, glasses, and mugs so you can pack light. Take advantage of all that your Gatlinburg cabin has to offer for fresh, budget-friendly meals on your Smoky Mountain vacation!
Dining Room
With the personal touches and beautiful design of the dining room, your group will appreciate eating together in this inviting space. Sit down at the large cherry table with antique finished chairs overlooking the trees outside. There’s also a large hutch, a separate China cabinet, and overhead lighting for an intimate meal with the family away from the hectic pace of work and school schedules back home.
Dining earlier in the day around the dining room table, you can enjoy natural light streaming through the French doors — enough to brighten the whole room and give you serene wooded views with every bite. In the evenings, pour a round of Ole Smoky Moonshine to enjoy with friends while playing board games or cards, putting together a puzzle, or munching on Appalachian fudge.
Rec Room — Garage
Adding to the fun at your creekside cabin in Gatlinburg is the rec space in the large 2-door garage. Here, you can play ping-pong with friends or the kids like a game room or unwind with your partner in the chairs while sipping craft brews. On nice days in the Great Smoky Mountains, open the garage doors for an indoor/outdoor hangout spot.
Bedrooms
Whether you’re enjoying a Gatlinburg vacation with family or a mountain getaway with friends, having your own space to relax is ideal. At your 3-bedroom cabin, each bedroom offers homey furnishings, a TV, a ceiling fan for added comfort, and cozy bedding. Plus, there are 2 full bathrooms and 1 half bathroom for added convenience.
The primary suite comes with a king-size bed, a private bath with an indoor jetted tub, and French doors leading to the deck. The second bedroom features antique furniture, including a writing desk, a full-size mirror, and a full-size bed. And the final bedroom has 2 twin-size beds with a writing desk for a shared nightstand in between.
Outdoor Spaces
Boasting a flat, spacious yard with a wooden footbridge crossing a flowing creek to yet another open space, Hen Wallow Creek Cottage is ideal for spending quality time in the great outdoors whether you’re visiting Gatlinburg in summer, fall, winter, or spring! Host a hillbilly golf tournament, play ball, set up yard games brought from home, dip your toes in the creek, or simply enjoy a wondrous walk with loved ones. There’s even a firepit with Adirondack chairs for memorable marshmallow roasts under a blanket of stars!
Plus, you’ll have an open deck with a charcoal grill for cookouts, a second open deck in a tree-studded setting, and a screened patio that connects all 3 outdoor spaces. On the patio, gaze at the towering trees and calming creek, sip drinks in the rocking chairs, and enjoy outdoor dining at the table.
