Kickstart your day with a peaceful coffee, taking in the inspiring views of Gatlinburg and Anakeesta from your private sanctuary. Despite your proximity to the town's hustle and bustle, minimal neighbors mean you can enjoy the tranquil atmosphere undisturbed.

"The Overlook" is an oasis of comfort and entertainment. Whip up gourmet meals in our oversized kitchen, challenge your companions in our game room featuring ping pong and a full-sized arcade game with Golden Tee, or gather in our spacious living room with a cozy fireplace and a 65" TV for movie nights.

For the working traveler, a dedicated workspace upstairs equipped with high-speed internet ensures you stay connected while relishing your mountain escape. Outdoors, a hot tub and picnic tables set the stage for relaxation, while a real wood fire pit invites you for warm evenings under the starlit sky.

Our cabin offers keyless entry and ample gravel parking for 4-5 cars right in front of the cabin. Pack your bags and experience Gatlinburg's allure while relishing the seclusion and luxury of "The Overlook".

Spring break vacation

We came to Gatlinburg on a spring break trip and had an amazing stay! The cabin was very clean and close to downtown. There was plenty of room for our group and the owners were very quick to respond. I would definitely recommend this property!!

beautiful views and great close location

we had a great stay...we were only able to stay one of the two night because of a big snow storm we were afraid of getting snowed in. the kids enjoyed the pingpong table and arcade game, the hot tub was very relaxing and watching the lights of the city below...you can see the space needle and the tram going back and forth to ober. it was nice to have multiple master bedrooms, my husbands aunt and uncle stayed with us and it was great for us both to have master suites. very clean...the only negative was the switchback curves up to the house, which is the reason we didnt stay through the snow we didnt feel like we would be able to get down without sliding, but as long as there is not a snow or ice storm predicted it should be fine

Wonderful cabin

This was a great place for our large family. It was clean and had a great view of downtown. We travel to Gatlinburg every year for the parade weekend and our old Cabin experienced damage from the fires. We had to find a new cabin and we couldn’t be happier. We will booking again next year.

Beautiful cabin

Beautiful, well-maintained, comfortable cabin with plenty of space! In theory, within walking distance of downtown; but not realistically with children due to the steep switch-back road up to the cabin. We had a wonderful stay! We know for next time to bring all essentials, however (dishpods, laundry detergent, extra toilet paper, extra garbage bags).

Had a great time with some friends and extended family. Good communication. Comfortable house with abundant amenities. Close to town. The road is very windy and steep so take your time.

Gatlinburg Family Vacation

Great property, very clean and well taken care of. Plenty of space. Great space in the kitchen for cleaning/eating. plenty of TV's for kids/adults. 2 fridges are very convenient. Very close to Gatlinburg/SMNP entrance. Only con is the drive up the hill to the condo is not ideal. We would have liked to walk into Gatlinburg but the terrain + blindspots for oncoming traffic + no walking path was not what I'd call suitable for walking. So it's really close to Gatlinburg and you can walk in but at your own risk. (we have little ones so we oped out) Great location and at night you can see Anakeesta lit up great.

Perfect Friend Getaway

The cabin was in a great location - very close to downtown Gatlinburg but still felt secluded. The host communicated well - there was a power outage the night before and he kept us informed. The rooms were spacious and the bathrooms looked brand new. The kitchen and laundry was nice. It had two refrigerators! The kids had lots of room to play. My only complaint was the downstairs AC not working well the last couple days and the king bed upstairs being very uncomfortable as it was like two ruts and a hill in the middle from being too old.

Beautiful Cabin in Mountains of Gatlinburg

Great stay for a family getaway. The location was nice because it was just a short drive and also provided privacy. When other reviews wrote about the mountain being too steep to go into downtown they were not kidding! David was fantastic with correspondence on any questions that arose during our stay. He made sure that we were comfortable and enjoyed our visit. As warned- There were several bears that came through the property each night- although they were docile one ended up on two of our cars (even though we emptied out all food remnants) so keep this in mind you are likely to experience an interaction with them.

Great cabin, nice floor plan

Great cabin, nice floor plan with plenty of beds. TVs in every bedroom and good central areas for congregating. New kitchenware and furniture. 2 refrigerators! Saw bears on property and road, so did not use hot tub or outside firepit. All that said, do not get caught off-guard like we did... the drive up was nerve-wracking - several switchbacks with decent incline. While the cabin is in Gatlinburg (and easy to access using the bypass), the road is such that we couldn't just walk in to town.

Smokies class trip

I booked this cabin for a college class trip, and it was perfect for our needs. Access to the Gatlinburg entrance to the national park meant that we did not have to drive through traffic for our daily trips. The cabin itself was very spacious and provided plenty of room for 10 adults. The kitchen and common areas were particularly roomy. I also found the owners to be extremely communicative - one of our students left their keys behind, and within an hour of contacting the owners, they had located the keys and planned to ship them to the student. Other reviews commented on the steep drive to the cabin; if you are familiar with the area, this is not unusual for rental cabins here. However, I would say that in winter, it would be very difficult to get up the drive, particularly with the tight switchbacks. I would definitely book this cabin again.

About the host

Hi, We’re Brittany & David, and we own and manage two cabins in the Tennessee Mountains. We are so glad you have decided to stay with us.

Our two cabins are The Overlook ( https://www.vrbo.com/2840753 ) and Sweet Home Bearolina ( https://www.vrbo.com/69327218 ). As the owners of the rental cabin, we take pride in managing the property ourselves. We believe that this personal touch is what sets our cabin apart from others and helps to create a memorable vacation experience for our guests. By managing the property ourselves, we are able to ensure that everything is well-maintained and up to our high standards. We are also available to address any issues or concerns that may arise during your stay. We believe that this hands-on approach allows us to provide the best possible experience for our guests and we hope that you will feel the same.

The cabin itself is cozy and comfortable, with all the amenities you need to feel right at home. It has a fully equipped kitchen, a warm and inviting living room, and four cozy bedrooms. The deck and outdoor hot tub are the perfect place to sit back and take in the breathtaking views of the mountains.

We hope you have a wonderful stay in The Overlook and we look forward to welcoming you soon!

Why they chose this property

When we first set eyes on The Overlook, it was love at 1st sight! One of the best things about The Overlook is that the property is adjacent to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. We commonly see bears, and even coyotes walking through the property. This park is known for its stunning natural beauty, with miles of hiking trails, cascading waterfalls, and incredible wildlife. Whether you're an experienced hiker or simply enjoy a leisurely stroll, there's a trail for you in the park.

Another great advantage of The Overlook is being only 1/2 mile to the Gatlinburg strip provides excellent access to all the fun and excitement of Gatlinburg. This charming mountain town is home to a wide variety of shops, restaurants, and attractions. Whether you're looking for a day of shopping and dining, or an evening of entertainment, Gatlinburg has something to offer.

In addition, visiting The Overlook throughout the year provides a great opportunity to enjoy the beautiful seasons of the Tennessee Mountains. Whether it's the vibrant colors of fall, the snow-capped peaks of winter, or the lush greenery of spring and summer, there's always something beautiful to see in this area.
