The apartment is open plan living but still cabin cosy. The king sized log bed looks onto the open plan lounge room and fully functional kitchen with all the mod cons for cooking up a storm. Your bathroom comes complete with 72" soaker tub and rainfall shower. For your convenience there is a washer and dryer. Rock the afternoon away on your deck or maybe soak in the hot tub gazing out into the woods.
This is your own private residence located under our own home. We do live upstairs! There is NO INTERNAL ACCESS between the apartment and our main home. Your utmost privacy is guaranteed.
Located in a quiet wooded area, yet close to all the Smokies has to offer. We know you're going to love the location and the easy drive, with no mountainous roads to navigate. We do however take no responsibility for the inability to reach the cabin in the event of inclement weather. Please be aware we do not allow check-outs on July 4, Thanksgiving and Christmas day. we do recommend you purchase travel insurance to cover any unforeseen emergencies

Wow !!

I read all reviews prior to booking and wow this place is better than I imagined. Perfect for a couples getaway and just outside of the “tourist” part of the area and gives a home feeling. We can’t wait to return! Karen was so nice and even shared good places to eat in the area with her excellent communication !!

Awesome Cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin in Sevierville. The setup is perfect for two people. The hosts were very welcoming, and have the place perfectly set up with TV, hot tub, and everything you could need. The location of the cabin was well situated. 10/10 would recommend.

Wonderful Visit!

We booked this for a couples get-away. After we booked, we noticed it was clearly noted the owner is on the premises. We decided to take a chance. So glad we did. The hosts were absolutely wonderful! The cabin is below the owners residence and IS completely separate and very private, including the balcony with the hot tub. We arrived mid evening and our host was kind enough to check and make sure we were settled in. There were complimentary small snacks, waters and beverages for our arrival. We could also purchase beer and wine on the honor system. The location was in a lovely wooded area with a spacious yet cozy interior. It was very clean and well maintained. On occasion we might be greeted as we started our day or we’e returning from our adventures. Is truly was a wonderful trip and having the host nearby was a plus!

Private and enjoyable

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO. It was clean, spacious and had wonderful amenities. We felt like we were in our own little cabin up in the mountains. Easy drive up to it but, close to town for anything you wanted to do. We will definitely be back.

Home Away From Home ❤️

Can’t say enough how wonderful this cabin is and our hosts! Loved that she brought decor in from her home of Australia too. It’s close to all the fun stuff, but you’re still in the woods and feel like you’re away from it all. Karen has made it so you don’t have any worries and everything is there you could need for a week’s stay or just a weekend away. The cabin is more towards the back of the sub division and you can use a back road not far from the cabin that made getting to PF easier and it was a beautiful drive if you didn’t want to go back through Sevierville and then to PF. Made wonderful memories on this trip with my daughters. PS Go Lions!

Delightful cabin--amazing porch/deck--southern hospitality Aussie style

The cabin was charming, as was the hostess. I didn't get the opportunity to meet her husband, whom I admire for his dedication to the Detroit Lions--it's like being a Cubs' fan. They are some of the most hopeful of all. Snacks galore provided. The bounty made our stay even better than home! It was a quick trip, but my sons and i had such a wonderful time just hanging out with those whom we love in an absolutely beautiful locale! Thanks, Karen

Perfect Get Away

We needed a weekend where we did absolutely nothing and this was the perfect location! Cabin is super easy to get to and avoid the traffic. It is one large area that is laid out perfectly. We really enjoyed sitting on the porch and listening to it rain and we even got an afternoon nap in! We will definitely return ❤️❤️

About the host

Hosted by Karen Bable

Host profile image
My husband and I moved from Australia to the USA in 2016. My dream was to open up a guest accommodation that would showcase the beauty of the Smokies with added touches from Australia. We love to travel and enjoy good food and fine wine. Randy is a pilot and we enjoy flying our Cirrus SR22 to beautiful locations in the USA. It was hard to leave the beaches in Australia, however the mountains here and the beauty that surrounds us every day are a great substitute!

Why they chose this property

We custom built our log cabin to accommodate guests. The unique art and photographs show case everything the Smokies has to offer, but also give you an insight into our life in Australia. It is a one of a kind log cabin!

What makes this property unique

We love the secluded location, but in fact you are so close to the Parkway in Sevierville. A world away , living amongst the trees, but close to it all. We are also less than 10 minutes from the Sevierville Convention Center. We do live upstairs so if you need anything we are just a few steps or a text message away.
