Gatlinburg Poolin' Around
Location: Gatlinburg, Tennessee
Description
A comfortable cabin with a homey atmosphere and a location less than 1 mile from downtown Gatlinburg, Poolin’ Around is great for a small family vacation or a couple’s retreat. Fishermen and those who love the water will feel right at home in this charming 1-bedroom cabin. Cast a line right outside your door, walk to downtown restaurants and attractions, or relax in the 7 ft x 14 ft, 4 ft continuous depth indoor pool. Plus, it's pet friendly, so you don't have to leave your pup at home!
Within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg, Poolin’ Around is convenient to many delicious restaurants, popular attractions, and local stores. Walk downtown, or ride the trolley, to see some of the area’s best attractions. Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies is just down the road, and the other Ripley’s attractions offer tons more fun – from scares at the Haunted Adventure to amazing sights at the Odditorium. If you want a fantastic view of the Smokies, ride the Aerial Tramway at Ober Gatlinburg or take the journey up the Gatlinburg Space Needle. If you need some quality time in the great outdoors, head to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park for a day of hiking, biking, horseback riding, fishing, picnicking, and more. With more than 800 miles of trails in the nation’s most visited national park, there is plenty to do and see.
While there are dozens of streams to fish in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Poolin’ Around also offers a location right on the water. Those who love fishing can step right outside their back door and cast a line. The quiet Pigeon River will also provide a soothing sound as you relax from the deck. Inside, the pool provides another place to enjoy the water. The 8’ x 15’ pool features a 4-foot-deep wading area and a shallow spa area with spa features. It will be a great place to relax at night or on rainy days.
When you’re ready to dry off, step into the cozy living area, furnished with a plush leather sofa and chair, a pool table, water-themed décor, and a big screen TV. Let the kids turn on their favorite cartoons in this comfortable space, or watch a romantic movie with that special someone. A large coffee table in the middle of the room is spacious enough to play card games or board games! And with the pool table in the living room, you can play games, watch TV, and hang out with everyone at the same time.
Just steps away, the fully-equipped kitchen is spacious and open. Look out over the water as you make snacks and meals, or enjoy the view as you do a quick load of dishes. Warm wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and all the essentials combine to make a beautiful kitchen where you’ll love cooking meals for the family. Forget waiting in line at the restaurants – just stock the refrigerator with groceries and sit down for quiet, peaceful meal s at the four-person dining table.
When it’s time for bed, you’ll feel pampered in the primary suite. Looking out over the water, the primary bedroom features a flat screen TV, large windows, a cozy seating area, and a comfortable king size bed. Fall asleep watching your favorite TV shows, enjoy the soothing sounds of the Little Pigeon River running past, or sit by the window and read a good book as you soak up the natural light filtering in. If you’re traveling with more than two guests, there is a queen sleeper sofa for additional sleeping space.
This charming Gatlinburg cabin is all about convenience. Use the high speed Internet to check out upcoming events, pack light and use the washer/dryer to do a quick load of laundry, and keep clothes looking fresh for a night on the town with the iron and ironing board. Poolin’ Around also provides a phone with long distance, a CD player, and a charcoal grill. On nice days, fire up the grill for a fun family cookout or grill some steaks for a romantic candlelit dinner.
With a location within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg, comfortable interior spaces, an indoor pool, and lots of other amenities, this Gatlinburg cabin rental is great for a romantic getaway, a honeymoon, or a small family vacation. If this is just the escape you’ve been seeking, call 1.800.684.7865 to speak to one of our reservation specialists!

"We stayed at Poolin' Around last year and couldn't have had a better experience! Thinking of coming back in the next month or so!"

"The “Pooling Around” Cabin was perfect! It was within walking distance to the shops and restaurants located in downtown Gatlinburg! We stayed in October and the fall decor was adorable. It was the perfect location and “home feeling” for a getaway trip!"
-
"This was our first time visiting Gatlinburg, TN and we had a fantastic time! The Cabin that we chose was perfect for us. The location is within walking distance of downtown and is situated on a beautiful stream. It is also pet-friendly so we didn't have to worry about boarding our dogs while we were there. It was all in all a very relaxing trip! We fished off the back patio, cooked-out on the supplied grill, explored the mountains as well as nearby Pigeon Forge, played pool in the living room area, and relaxed in the huge hot-tub/pool. Before we left we even reserved the same cabin for later this year. Well done Cabins for You!"

"Great little cabin tucked away right on the river - and walking distance to Anakeesta! Trolly pick up right up the street as well to take all around Gatlinburg. Pool was relaxing, space was clean and looks to be recently updated. We take trips to TN couple times a year - this was our second time at cabins for you and maybe my all time favorite. Can’t beat the location!"
