About this property

Romantic / Views / New Build / Indoor Heated Saltwater Pool

*Must be 25 or older to book*

Romantic Mountain Modern Chalet! Enjoy all the Great Smoky Mountain National Park has to offer and more! This brand new construction (end of 2022) home was designed and built with guests in mind! High Expectations offers STUNNING mountain views (and sunsets), plenty of outdoor living space, a heated indoor saltwater pool, a Cozzia 4D Massage Chair, high end hot tub, and a decked out game room all just a short drive from the area’s best amenities and attractions!

Private! Hard to find in the crowded subdivisions this chalet is situated at the center of the lot with trees on the left, right, and rear. Street side windows are obscured for additional peace of mind. Tesla Wall Charger on site for guest use (bring an adapter if using a non-Tesla EV).

Main level bedroom is spacious with high ceilings, plenty of glass, and its own stone stacked to the sky fireplace. En-suite bathroom with a walk in tile shower with dual heads, large double vanity, full closet for guest use, and a toilet closet for additional privacy.

Architectural highlights include sky high cathedral ceilings, mountain modern fit and finish, open game loft, open kitchen, and walls of glass on every floor to ensure you and your loved one enjoy the breathtaking National Park and Wears Valley views! Unwind in the Cozzia 4D Qi Massage Chair that works from your neck to calves. Lounge outdoors on the 3 levels of decks with raised swivel chairs / table and low love seat and fire pit on the main deck, relaxing rockers on the top deck, and the duo of hanging swing chairs on the lower deck. 2 stacked stone fireplaces in the living room and bedroom round out the ambiance and help you set the mood.

Take a dip in the 14’ x 18’ heated indoor saltwater pool. Turn the pool room into an indoor/ outdoor space by opening the garage door (warm weather times only) out onto the lower deck giving easy access to the hanging swing chairs and hot tub. Enjoy the Master Spas TS240 hot tub with over 26 massage jets offering hydrotherapy and relaxation after a long day in the mountains!

The game room is an open loft overlooking the living room and features plenty of couple friendly games including Silver Strike Bowling Arcade (bowling, lawn darts, corn hole, and putt putt), skee ball, and a cocktail style arcade with 60+ classic games! We also stock the home with a selection of board games.

Conveniently located in the heart of Wears Valley, High Expectations sits at an elevation of 2,329 ft and offers easy access to Pigeon Forge (20 min), Gatlinburg (30 min), Great Smoky Mountain National Park via Line Springs Rd (10 min), Wears Valley (10 min) and Townsend (20 min). We love having access to the family friendly fun of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge while also being able to head over to Townsend for a more low key and upscale experience with the National Park in between for all to enjoy! Wears Valley is a small quaint community just outside Pigeon Forge and Townsend. It has plenty of craft shops, coffee houses, small restaurants and more just minutes from the property. We live in the area and hold our properties to a high standard and are always willing to make recommendations on where to go and what to do!

Anniversary Trip

My wife and I celebrated our 11th Anniversary in High Expectations and we could not have been any more pleased than we were. This place is the perfect couples retreat hosted by a wonderful couple who made it extra special for us; providing us with a card, flowers, chocolates and wine on our arrival. The home has an incredible view, even on the cloudy/rainy days as it allows you to see why they coined them the Great Smoky Mountains. The saltwater pool was great to have as I swam laps while my wife read/took naps. The hot tub was great as well. The game loft is a really nice touch with skeeball, an old school arcade table and a silver strike/putting game/lawn darts/cornhole stand up arcade screen. The game loft also has it's own balcony with the best views(all of them were great) of the house. The bedroom has a large and extremely soft bed, blackout shades and electric fireplace that'll allow you to sleep as long as you desire. And the massage chair was a perfect touch after a day of hiking in the National Park, exploring Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg/Wears Valley! The home was a 20-40 minute drive of everything we intended to do and that was perfect for us. The drive up, while curvy/steep(it is the mountains of course), was a very manageable drive on all paved roads! We loved every minute of our stay and have had lots of people inquire about the property. We'd highly recommend anyone to choose High Expectations for their next stay as Greg and Holly know how to host someone!

Best place we’ve ever stayed

We’ve stayed at numerous cabins around this area but this one is by far the best we’ve ever stayed. My husband & I spent Christmas here & it was fantastic. The amenities & extra care to details make this cabin so worth it. Will definitely stay here again.

25th Wedding Anniversary trip

We were up at daybreak, like it or not, most days because the upper windows do not have shades allowing early morning sunshine on the head of the bed. Sunlight from the upper windows caused glare on the TVs & arcade games during the day. The cabin got hot uncomfortably hot in the afternoon (thermostat reached 78 at one point even though <60 outside) from the unshaded windows.

Wonderful property exactly as advertised and appropriately named "High Expectations"....close to the top of the mountain, private with spectacular views. Just get your groceries on the way in and you won't need to leave if you don't want to. Great place to relax.

Relaxing Retreat

This property is perfection. I am admittedly very picky when it comes to accommodations, and I could not have been more pleased with the property, the host, and our overall stay. The house is new and incredibly clean, the amenities are outstanding for the price, and the views are spectacular. Like many of the other reviewers, we had multiple bear sightings, which was exciting. The property is even better in real life than in the photos. I would highly recommend.

Fiftieth Anniversary Dream Get Away

I have nothing but glowing things to say about my stay at this property! The Host was more than helpful and responsive to communications. Our stay was perfect. It was secluded, relaxing and the perfect place for my wife and I to spend time alone, enjoying each other and remembering great years that we had lived together. Our seclusion was only interrupted by an occasional visit from a bear and her clubs that would occasionally amble through while we could enjoy from one of the several balconies facing the majestic beauty of the Smokies. We never left the property, and I can truthfully say that it was more restful and enjoyable that we could even have imagined! From the hot tub, to the heated enclosed pool, to the best massage chair on the market, this place fulfilled our wishes. Cooking was easy and enjoyable with the gas grill and the like new range. The cold water provided by the water dispenser was perfect. If you want a secluded place to spend uninterrupted time with your significant other, this is your place. Pigeon Forge was only twenty minutes away, but leaving this special place never entered our mind. As you can tell, I would recommend this wholeheartedly to anyone wanting a beautiful place to get away with the one you love.

Perfect getaway for our anniversary

We celebrated our anniversary with a weekend stay at High Expectations. The cabin is just like its shown in the pictures but even better in person. Greg and Holly had great communication throughout. They even came out late night to check the pool temp for us and adjust it. There is a contract to sign and insurance coverage to buy after the booking but they offer a refundable option for insurance. We enjoyed the massage chair, pool, hot tub, and game room/loft. We saw bears both nights of our stay from the balcony thru a trail on the property. They come out around sunset. Wears valley doesnt have many choices for food so plan to settle or drive 30 min for better options or cook at the cabin to enjoy more time there. There is a local grocery delivery service (smokey mtn grocery). We would definitely stay here again

Perfect!

This is the perfect getaway for couples, close enough to Pigeon Forge but far enough away to be private. The cabin is very clean, beautifully decorated, gorgeous views and easy to find. We spent a lot of our time there relaxing and enjoying the pool, hot tub, games and the massage chair. No need to go anywhere! Would definitely stay again and would recommend to family and friends. This is the best cabin we have rented in over 10 years of trips to the area. Owners even left a gift for us for our anniversary. You won't be disappointed!

We wanted an adult getaway and thats exactly what we got! The owners set the house up perfect thinking of every detail from the comfortable bed to having 2 shower heads in the shower to make our stay special. We loved soaking in the hot tub and looking out at the beautiful views. We definitely recommend staying at this house and I'm sure we will again🙂

About the host

Hosted by Greg Korlin

Host profile image
We are Greg and Holly Korlin and we own and operate High Expectations! I (Greg) am a local real estate agent specializing in the overnight rental market and Holly is a professional real estate photographer and property manager. We've built, owned, and operated overnight rentals in various forms since 2020.

We personally designed, and had this property built with guests in mind. We love running our overnight rentals and do not take it lightly. We have set a high expectation as owners and hope to pass this along to each and every guest.

Why they chose this property

Wears Valley has always been a special place and its one of Holly and I's favorite areas in the Sevier County area. Its nestled between the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and the Chilhowee Ridge Line. Just 20 min to Pigeon Forge, 30 min to Gatlinburg, 20 min to Townsend, and 10 minutes to the National Park. Just minutes to the Wears Valley area and it has plenty of small coffee shops, artisan shops, family owned restaurants, moonshine and wine tasting, general stores, and sweeping mountain / farm views. Townsend is close by with upscale and low key mountain experience.

What makes this property unique

A property that leaves guests wanting for nothing with tons of amenities, and with plenty to do nearby this vacation spot will keep you occupied your whole trip!
