A high ceiling really opens up the space, while the hardwood floors and stacked-stone gas fireplace elevate your cabin experience. On chilly evenings, sit with friends and chat by dancing flames with a glass of wine in hand. For entertainment, flip on the 40-inch screen TV and watch your favorite show or movie marathon with snacks and soda on the coffee and end tables.
Kitchen
Get ready to whip up scrumptious meals morning, noon, or night in the fully equipped kitchen, boasting tons of counter space with breakfast bar seating for 4, all major appliances, a stainless-steel double sink, and plenty of cookware, dinnerware, mugs, and more!

There’s even a handy dishwasher to take care of the messes.
Dining Room
Near the kitchen awaits the dining room with a table for 6 and bright windows all around. Aside from stuffing your face, chatting with friends, and planning daily activities, this space is also great for playing a few board games provided at the cabin.

"Very nicely, clean updated place. AWESOME AWESOME VIEW! Great Deck area. Bedroom very nice and comfy beds. Would definitely recommend for family and friend stay. We were so excited to see how nice it was."
"We loved are stay and my mom seen a mama bear and her 4 cubs we loved the mountain view too"
"This place was absolutely beautiful! Our kids really enjoyed having a game arcade and the hot tub. It was definitely worth it! It would be more of a place for a get away rather than a tourist attraction. Very home feeling. Love how they have the gated community as well. Only downfall we didn't get to see any bears however we did hear them while we were cooking out fajitas one night!"
"We have stayed at 2 Cabins For You cabins "Serenity's Clear View" and "My Runaway Wagon Retreat" and both stays have been absolutely fantastic! They were very professional and made us feel so welcome and comfortable! I would (and have) definitely recommend using Cabins for you to book your Smoky Mountain Vacations 😀"
"Love ❤️ This place...So peaceful and beautiful...I sleep like a bear in the most comfortable cabin beds...I enjoyed my evenings sitting by the fireplace and my daily walks...I’m definitely coming back again...Hopefully soon!"
"We loved our morning views! Our stay was wonderful. We had plenty of room to accommodate our party. The bedrooms were all very nice and comfy. Kids loved the game room and hot tub after our long hike of the Chimney Top trail. My tip for future guests would be to make sure to pack your own travel toiletries because toothpaste, body wash, shampoo, conditioner is not provided. Also, you’ll want to pick up laundry detergent from the Dollar General nearby if you plan to do laundry during your stay. Overall our experience was amazing and I definitely recommend."
"The cabin was nice close to everything will stay there in the future."
"Tbh, driving was hell scary for a person from plain terrain but it was not bad after first time. Cabin was huge and spacious. Very quiet and beautiful Mountain View. I loved seating outside in the morning and had memorable experience for my coffee time. Relaxing and lots of stuff. I ll definitely stay here in future."
"Very nice cabin. Layout is great bedroom on each floor with own bathroom. The porch provides a great view."
"Really enjoyed cabin nice layout for our need. Will stay with cabins for you in future."
"A wonderful place for a family vacation."
"Great experience dealing with customer service at Cabins for You. Very helpful individuals. Cabin itself was amazing with spectacular views."
