Rock away the stresses of every day life in one of our rocking chairs while enjoying crisp mountain air. Grill steaks, burgers, etc. on the charcoal grill.

Once inside you will find custom log furniture throughout the cabin. You will also enjoy the impeccable detail of the traditional Smoky Mountain decor.

Each Master Suite has its own private bathroom with granite countertops. Wireless internet is also available throughout the cabin.

The gourmet kitchen provides ample space to prepare anything from holiday dinners to simple snacks for the kids. The large kitchen has more cabinet and counter space than most of the other cabins in the area making it easier for preparing the perfect meal.

Great stay for soccer tournament

My son had games at Rocky top Sports Complex. We decided to make a weekend of it. The property was perfect for us, 10 min away from our games, and a little outside of downtown Gatlinburg, so we could avoid the crowds if we wanted. Everything was spotless. Well stocked kitchen allowed for preparing all our meals, comfy beds, beautiful deck with view. nice showers. My kids said the hot tub was "too chloriney" but I suppose that is better than bacteria filled. :-) We had a great time and would come back for sure. The Google maps did not take us to the right place, so we had a little challenge with that, but otherwise everything was perfect.

Awesome views in a cozy chalet

This place was amazing, our second stay here. We got to see two black bears in the area and the host let us check in hours before the check in time because we showed up early. It was clean and comfortable and cozy. The hot tub was great. Loved the layout and no scary mountain inclines to drive up, which was big for us. Will definitely stay here again!

Perfect cabin

Perfect place for our adult family of 5 to stay for a long fall weekend. Downtown Gatlinburg and PigeyForge both easily accessed. Retreat back to a clean cozy cabin with all The comforts you need. Extras like blankets and fully stocked kitchen made it even better. Super clean. Thank you for a lovely visit.

Cabin with a view and close to everything

We and our adult children stayed here in July. We all enjoyed the beautiful cabin. Located in a quiet log cabin community, this cabin has a nice view and though there were cabins below, it didn’t make the view less beautiful. We felt close to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We spent time in both communities and hiked in the smoky mountains just minutes away. The trolley park and ride was very easy to get to and right across from the trolley stop is the grocery store with everything we needed. The cabin is well stocked with cookware and appliances. We would stay here again.

Beautiful Cabin with a beautiful view

This was our 1st time staying in Gatlinburg and renting a cabin. My friend suggested staying in the Black Bear Falls neighborhood so I did my research for the best cabin that fit the needs of my family and found the Back to Nature cabin. It was perfect for our family! It has a beautiful view of the mountains from the spacious porch where we spent many hours sipping coffee in the early morning sitting in the rocking chairs or ending our day eating dinner at the picnic table. Very comfortable, clean living space inside with lovely decor. Definitely will be making plans to stay here again! Thank you for making our 1st vacation in Gatlinburg a memorable one!

Felt Like Old Times!

I think this was our 7th or 8th time renting this property, but the first since it changed owners a few years ago. While the basics were still the same, we did notice some improvements, incuding a nice diningroom window overlooking the driveway area, as well as an expanded main deck that now wraps almost the entire way around the house. All in all, it was a great visit and we were glad to find it available, again!

Our family loved this cabin!

Wonderful place to stay for 4 adults and 2 kids (4 yo and 19 mo). The cabin faces a lovely view of the Smokies; with large windows throughout but especially enjoyed from the wraparound deck. We had colder weather on several days so it was also nice to turn on the gas fireplace in the great room. Our trip was highlighted by a family of black bears taking a leisurely stroll one evening right down the street by the cabin. Everyone let them be and no one felt threatened. It was amazing!

Excellent Home and Location!

Excellent home and location that has a very unique and accommodating floorplan, including a main level master suite, as well as a lower level king and queen suite (and 4 total, FULL bathrooms!). We loved our time here and found the location very amenable to quickly getting into downtown Gatlinburg or to Pigeon Forge/Sevierville. The only issues we experienced seemed to be a disconnect between the owner and the housekeeping staff. We found linens upon our check-in with a very large stain (that appeared to be recent) on the bedskirt in the main level master suite. Additionally, some of the linens smelled dingy, which led us to believe they had not been washed recently. We also noted that the toilet bowls had not been cleaned very well prior to our arrival. This is a great place overall... if there can be more accountability on the cleanliness, this place would truly be top notch (which should be expected at this price point).

Cabin

The place was beautiful and clean but the downstairs tv was not working they did try to fix it though and then the pool table had a rip in it and soft spots all over it. We rented it for the pool table and that was a bust so if you want a pool table don’t book this one!

We loved this cabin! It was tucked away in a quiet mountain neighborhood but was super close to all the action! The communication was always quick and so helpful. The cabin was in amazing condition, very clean and the views were exactly what we needed each morning and evening at home. We will most definitely be back :)
