SOME NOTES ABOUT THE MOUNTAINS:
- This is the mountains and cell service may be spotty
- There may be some twisty roads
- This is in the forests and mountains and you will likely see bugs, mice, or furry critters (including bears!). We do maintain the property with regular pest control, but due to the surroundings, or if doors are left open, or food is left outside the house, this can attract critters.
- PLEASE NOTE: Fall/Winter is ladybug season in the Smokies and these little buggers are attracted to heat, meaning your cabin and every other one out there that is warm! They will swarm to the cabin and you'll probably see them alive/dead on windowsills, in vents, etc. Rest assured that your cabin has regular pest control and is professionally cleaned, including bug removal, before and after your stay. However, these bugs come back right away and unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about them until the season passes.

- The cabin has well water and when first turning the hot water on it can have the sulfur smell. This will go away after a minute or two and is typically just when you first turn it on the first day. After you start using the water regularly it goes away. Also, the water can sometimes come out a little brown, typically when flushing the toilets, etc. This is normal. The water is drinkable, but we still recommend using the filtered water from the fridge.
- Cell phone service is very spotty in the area, so download the maps offline before arriving.

The community pool and fishing pond are run by a 3rd party and we have no control over closures, etc. that may occur. No refunds will be issued for closures of these amenities. Fireplace is gas powered and is typically shut off between March/April and October/November.

Note: This is the mountains and WiFi and cell phone service can sometimes be spotty and lose service. If the internet does go out, try resetting the router first. We highly recommend you download maps of the area offline prior to arriving.

Great family getaway

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. It was well equipped and comfortable. Plenty of room for kids to spread out and get some alone time, as well hang out together in the hot tub. The screen/projector on the deck with the hot tub was a nice touch.

This cabin was perfect for our family with the large rooms upstairs and multiple beds in each room. The cabin is very private but easy to get to. We stayed in the winter and when it snowed, the view was absolutely gorgeous from the large windows. We enjoyed the outdoor fireplace on the deck and the hot tub.

This home is beautiful! Definitely need a good vehicle as the roads leading up to the cabin are steep and winding. The home needs a little TLC but overall a very nice place.

Happiness in Tennessee

What a great property in a beautiful location. Hidden away in picturesque Wears Valley you can't go wrong. Close enough to all the Great Smokey Mountains has to offer but far enough away from the hubbub in the typical tourist destinations. Great place to relax between your adventures. The owners are fantastic: very communicative, responsive and hospitable. We filled the house with lots of love and laughter and great meals, which we hope for other visitors. We thank our hosts sincerely for providing a lovely place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Cale Delaney

Host profile image
We are a multi-cultural, Christian family of 5 starting out in the short term rentals. I grew up in NH, but moved down to FL in 2002. My wife is from Ecuador and moved to the US in 2013.
We absolutely love traveling and the Great Smoky Mountains, getting out in nature, and being active! In fact, we love the area so much that in February of 2021 our family decided to purchase our first vacation home. It's been a dream of ours to have a log cabin with some land to call our own and now that dream has come true and we are excited to share it with you! We wanted a cabin large enough for our family and friends. We hope you enjoy our cabin as much as our family does. We look forward to hosting you!

Why they chose this property

Wears Valley is such a charming and rustic small town with so much character and ambience. Beautiful farmland, quaint shops and dining and all so close to the Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Dollywood, SMNP, but without the hustle and bustle!

It's also conveniently located next to Honeysuckle Meadows Pool & Deli so we can offer all our guests free access to the community pool and fishing pond.
Also, just .5 mile from the cabin is a large picnic pavilion with grill and fireplace and miles of hiking trails right in your backyard!

What makes this property unique

Peaceful and tranquil setting on 3 private acres. You'll see bears and be lulled to sleep by the sounds of nature. Not a neighbor in site so you can truly relax. And the cabin offers a fenced in yard so you can bring the whole family, even the 4-legged kind!
