A Few Important Things to Note
- Maximum Capacity: The cabin sleeps up to 16 guests and allows for a maximum of 4 vehicles.
- Mountain Roads: No steep roads here! The 2-mile drive to the cabin is smooth and easy to manage, even for larger vehicles.
- Hot Tub Rules: Guests must be 18+ or supervised by an adult to use the hot tub. Please avoid alcohol near the hot tub and use at your own risk.
- No Pets Allowed: For the comfort of all our guests, pets are not permitted. If a pet is brought into the property, we will charge an additional $175 and you will likely be asked to leave.
- Safety Cameras: For your safety, outdoor security cameras are in place. Tampering with these devices is not permitted.
- Rental Agreement: A signed rental agreement is required to confirm your reservation. This helps ensure a smooth and secure experience for both parties.
- Wildlife: Our cabin is tucked away in the woods, offering a peaceful mountain escape surrounded by nature. Because of the natural setting, you may hear or see some local wildlife. The cabin has a roof with no attic, so sounds like rain or the occasional squirrel on the roof may be more noticeable. It's all part of the cozy, close-to-nature experience! We also perform monthly pest control, but due to the forest setting, insects may occasionally find their way inside, especially during certain seasons. This is a normal part of being in the mountains, and we appreciate your understanding as we balance comfort with the natural environment. While bear sightings are rare, they are a possibility in this area. If you do happen to see one, whether in the park or near the cabin, please enjoy it from a safe distance and do not feed it. For your safety and theirs, it’s best to admire wildlife without interaction..

Reviews
Absolutely perfect in every way! Thank you Katie for hosting our group of 9 girls from Michigan for a Dolly Parton themed bachelorette trip. The home was gorgeous, spacious, well equipped, and you could not beat the location up in the mountains, and right between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We saw bears twice which was a big highlight! Many of us said it was the nicest Airbnb we have ever stayed at. And the hosts were extremely nice & responsive. Thank you again!
It was amazing stay and great experience. Thank you.
Katie was a great host. She responded very quickly and was very friendly. She also gave us great recommendations! Would definitely stay here again!

Katie was a great host. She responded very quickly and was very friendly. She also gave us great recommendations! Would definitely stay here again!
Our stay here was great! Katie was super responsive to any questions we had. We loved the extra touch of providing us with the coffee pods and amenities in that bathrooms. It was nice not to have to worry about having enough garbage bags or having to bring our own paper towels. The beds were very comfortable and the house was extremely clean. We enjoyed the hot tub, the pool table and the fire pit! This is house was close to everything and we really enjoyed our stay!
The place was beautiful and had everything we needed. Katie was very responsive to answer any questions I had. The location was perfect right in between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
had a great day! perfect for a girls weekend. They notified us beforehand of a few issues. The fridge was huge, beds were comfy, and plenty of space. We loved that in every bathroom it came it necessities. The game room was a hit and we played a lot of games in there!
Katie was an excellent host, and very communicative. When issues arose outside of her control, she worked quickly to make it right and accommodate us. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful time. The cabin was everything we had hoped for, large, clean tons of entertainment in the game room for the entire family. Location could not have been better and yet very private and quiet. Katie was a wonderful host and we would highly recommend this as the go to place for any large family.
Stay was great, plenty of space, home and amenities were as describe. Communication was great with owner, no issues. Game room was a hit with both kids and adults.
Great home!! A
Truly fantastic stay. There were 9 adults, a toddler and a newborn. Katie has thought of everything you could need during your stay. Plenty of space in this 5 bedroom home. We enjoyed the hot tub, used the brand new charcoal grill, played in the awesome game room, played pool every day. Spacious kitchen with all the necessary items to cook and enjoy a meal. Huge pantry and fridge. Safety gate at top of the stairs and many baby items supplied including a pack n play, baby tub, baby monitor and sound machine. Plenty of outdoor seating on different decks. If you can pull yourself away from the house, it's just a short drive to either Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg . Wifi struggles once you leave the house, so load directions before you leave!
The house was absolutely stunning. The pictures don’t do it justice. Katie was an amazing host & always responded ASAP when something was needed. 10/10. Would recommend Katie’s AIR BNB to everybody !
Katie was great to work with and the space is easy to enjoy! Take time just to enjoy the amenities and the view!
It was an overall good experience and Katie was very responsive to all our inquiries.
We had a lovely time in this wonderful home. It is very private and quiet, and there was so much to do in the home- play pool, games, shuffleboard, watch movies, and relax in the hot tub. The home was very clean with plenty of towels and toiletries! Katie was an excellent host and was very responsive with my questions before and during our stay!
Beautiful home, perfect stay for our annual golf trip. Plenty of room for 12 guys. Katie was very responsive and our only problems were taken seriously and handled quickly. Couldn’t recommend more.
My family loved staying at this Airbnb! The home had a huge kitchen which was perfect for cooking for a large group. The house is centrally located between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg which was great for our group since we had days planned in each town. The game room was another plus! I would definitely recommend this house if you’re looking at visiting this area!
The property was super convenient but not right on top of everything in the middle of town. Very clean, well supplied, and had an amazing hot tub! Would love to stay here again!
Great stay
We really enjoyed our stay at this home. My husband and our children initially planned the vacation but my brother ended up driving my elderly parents down to be with us as well. There was plenty of room! The home has a nice, open living space and kitchen/dining area. We spent lots of our time at the property on the decks and outside because the decks were equally welcoming. Games like corn hole and large jenga were fun on the decks during the evening. The hot tub was immaculate- I'm guessing brand new. We loved the outdoor fire table.The home is well appointed with like new appliances and dishware. We found everything we needed available in the home. Toiletries, toilet paper, dishwashing detergent, hand towels, and garbage bags (and more) were all provided upon our arrival which was incredibly convenient. We ended up extending our stay because we were all so exhausted from doing activities in PF. The owner was super accommodating, readily available, and communication with her was easy. There are steps leading to the home's entrance but no one in our party had trouble getting up or down them because they are very short stairs. If you are a hot sleeper you might find it better to leave the bedroom doors open during the night. I believe this must be a completely remodeled older home as there are no vents that we could see in the bedrooms. It was not an issue for me but my husband does like a cool sleep. Rotating fans in each bedroom made it no big deal. Geat stay!
Found everything as described in listing. Property was clean and well stocked. Used most of the amenities and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would stay again and recommend to friends and family. Convenient to both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg attractions.
The house was perfect for our trip. The gameroom was awesome. We even had a chill evening in the hot tub! Even getting into town was a quick drive to everything. I highly recommend booking a stay here.
We had such an amazing time at this cabin!!! The new game room was amazing and a great add on. I personally loved getting into the hot tub every night. Also the location of this place you can’t beat it.
The house was perfect, the entire family enjoyed every aspect of it. Short yet scenic drive to PF, ample space to park and plenty of amenities to keep everyone happy and entertained. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
Love staying here, had a great time. Plenty of space for the whole family, close to grocery store and entertainment. Had to leave a 2 trash bags in the house , the bins were completely full did not want leave trash outside the house. Hope l can still get my deposit back.
We enjoyed our time there very much, the house was very clean and spacious
Had a great time at the house, the listing was accurate and we had plenty of room to move around! Will stay again!
The house was very nice and clean. Great location right between pigeon forge and Gatlinburg.
This cabin was perfect for our family of 8. It was very spacious and had everything that we needed. The house was far enough away from the busy traffic, but close enough to all the fun attractions!
This is a wonderful chalet with ample of space. Game room was fun and the picture booth was perfect.
The house was perfect for our family, so much to do (games room, pool table and hot tub), plus the house is such a short drive to all the things at Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge! We can’t wait to come back again!!
Beautiful place! Great location, very close to the attractions
I had a fantastic stay at Katie’s s place! The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and exactly as described in the listing. The location was perfect—close to Beautiful Gatlinburg, yet quiet and relaxing. Katie was an excellent host—communicative, friendly, and thoughtful. The space had everything I needed, from a well-stocked kitchen to cozy beds and strong Wi-Fi. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
Great place! We loved how close it was to the main park entrance. It was wonderful to go hiking and then come back to a hot tub! The kids loved the game room. Definitely recommend!
Wonderful home with precious attention to maximising the bed accommodations for large groups. Made our larger group feel perfectly comfortable!
Love this place
We were in Gatlinburg for a HS basketball tournament and this cabin served as a great spot for our team to stay! We had a great time and plenty of space!
This place was beautiful inside and out! Everything worked great with plenty of space for everyone! Game room was amazing and the entire property was private and peaceful. Kitchen had everything you could need and a very small thing but is also very important PLENTY of towels! Katie was an amazing host and 10/10 will book again!
We did a quick family vacation for my daughters birthday and it was perfect. Plenty of space for everyone, great for the kids and adults too.
Katie’s Airbnb was a great place for my friends and I to get together this past weekend and just as beautiful and spacious as the photos shown. When you walk in the living room it is so gorgeous and the amount of space for my crew throughout the house was perfect. There are other Airbnb’s close by this house but we had complete privacy since our stay was this winter. Although we had a few complications and maintenance issues during our stay at the house, every time we reached out to Katie she immediately responded and tried her best to send someone out ASAP to help us fix them. She was so kind and friendly to us and really went the extra mile to make sure that we felt completely taken care of during our stay. We were all very grateful. I hope all of our future Airbnb hosts are as amazing and accommodating as her. She is definitely a 5 star Airbnb host! I absolutely recommend staying here if you plan to spend time in Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge!
We had the best time! We had a few mishaps that were out of Katie’s control such as power outages. Katie was extremely sweet and helpful the entire process. We couldn’t have asked for a sweeter host! Would highly recommend to anyone! :)
We were so amazed with the quality of the home. We had a few hiccups and Katie took care of those right away to make sure our stay was great! We were able to host a great time for our of town family members and everyone had a pleasant time. 10/10 would come back and boom again.
The place was beautiful, the hot tub was very nice and clean. Everything was easy to find, if we needed anything our host responded to us within the hour and checked in on us to make sure check in and everything went smoothly! 100% recommend staying there!
A must stay if your in the area. Everything was just like the picture.
We had a great experience, it was very family-friendly. This home was directly in the center of everything if you’re wanting to go out and do activities. It’s also located in a very peaceful area with a great view. 10/10 recommend.
Great location.. everything is less than 20 min away. 100% Recommended
Me and my family stayed and loved this place. The location we thought was great right between Gatlinburg and Pigion forge. Clean and very spacious!! Gameroom was a bonus!!
Highly recommend. Spacious common areas, comfortable beds, and well stocked kitchen for cooking. The game room and jacuzzi were very popular with our group. Host was responsive and had a comprehensive welcome book. WIFI and cell reception was spotty.
The house is lovely and spacious., wonderful for multiple families to come together. And the game room is amazing, kept the kids busy for hours. A great find for our Great Smokey Mountains vacation!
We stayed here for a multi-family and multi-state Christmas gathering and it so comfortably held all 11 of us. We had the best memories here! It was so close to all of the scenic locations and things to do, which was so convenient. Gorgeous, functional place.
I had a amazing weekend with my family here! I think it was better than what the pictures showed! Super clean and Katie was a great on checking in and answering any questions! Great location as well being close to pigeon forge or gburg! I would stay here again!
Fueron unas vacaciones perfectas, el lugar es exelente y la cabaña muy muy buena... altamente recomendado
Beautiful home and great location
it was a great place to stay. we were very comfortable. beautiful area and not far from any of the things to do. we would go back in a heartbeat
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. We had 6 adults and 2 children and had plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable. We enjoyed the pool table, game room and hot tub. We saw a large bear and the fattest raccoon I’ve ever seen visited us on the deck. Great location. 10 minute drive to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We had a minor issue and Katie responded immediately. If we travel with a large group to the area again we would definitely rent the cabin.
Spacious for our family and plenty to do around the cabin. We loved the game room! Kitchen was stocked with dishes and utensils needed to cook. Nice wooded setting. We would stay here again.
Around the Bend in the Tennessee Smoky Mountains was perfect for our group of 10 adults and 6 kids (ages 1-8)! It had everything we needed—plenty of space, clean rooms, and all the amenities to keep both kids and adults comfortable and entertained. The location was ideal, close to everything we wanted to do. We had an amazing day at Dollywood, hiked the stunning Laurel Falls trail, and even had a football day back at the house. The kitchen was fully stocked, making meals easy to prepare, and the outdoor space was great for the kids to play while the adults relaxed. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay—close to all the attractions, with beautiful views and plenty of room for everyone. Highly recommend this house for large families or groups looking for a fun, stress-free vacation in the Smoky Mountains!
Beautiful home ! Katie was always responsive when we had a question. The game room was an added feature for fun times . House looks just like the picture and more beautiful in person. Super clean . Katie is the best host Thank you
Fantastic home, fantastic host. If thinking about visiting Gatlinburg, this is the place you need to be!!
Place is really beautiful, had people over to spend over the weekend. We had a great time. Game room, sauna, out door seating were the best. Had had many rooms for people to accommodate. It’s very close to the downtown. I would recommend people to take and have great time with friends and family.
My stay at Katie's place was really enjoyable. I had a great time and would definitely recommend it.
We had a few kinks before and after arriving and they were quickly and effectively taken care of, even after hours. The host, Katie, was very nice communicating with and the house itself was absolutely amazing. It was exactly how it is pictured. We had a short but great stay!
Great home, great location, easy access to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Upon arrival the home was even more spacious then the pictures make it to be. The kitchen was very open and a great place for a large family to gather. The living room is very inviting and a great place to relax or play pool. The beds were very comfortable and clean! The outside area was nice, plenty of choices for sitting outside, the grill worked well and the hot tub was an added bonus. We didn't use the game room bit once since there was no air hockey puck (although Katie tried her best to get one to us). However, it is a fun place to hang out. Katie is a wonderful host and takes pride in her rental and customer service. Our family of 4 highly recommends this home and will keep it on our list of places to stay when we visit TN again.
Personal guide book to all features of the house. Quiet area surrounded by trees for privacy. Entire kitchen labeled to easily find everything. Great for big group with multiple large tables for dining. Game room adds nice touch and is separated if people still want quiet inside the house.
It's a nice house , perfect for several families. Owner is very friendly
Thank you so much! Even offered to have light bulbs delivered so we could enjoy the one deck at night! Beautiful house!
Everything was wonderful....a very beautiful and comfortable home
This is a very nice property. We really enjoyed our stay here. Would like to specially mention the new game room. Hosts are very responsive and would go the extra mile to make guests comfortable. We will def come back.
Our stay was amazing! Katie was so helpful and friendly. Anything we needed or any questions we had, she answered very quickly! The house was clean and very accommodating. If we come back to Gatlinburg, we will definitely try to stay here again.
Nice home I enjoyed it
Katie was a very responsive host. We ran into a few bumps but it was cleared up quickly! We will stay here again!
beautiful house with room for everyone in our group. we loved all the out door areas and hot tub. hosts were very communicative and responsive. highly recommend this place.
This stay was phenomenal! I highly recommend this place to any large family. Great location and lots to do nearby! Katie stayed on top of things and made the check-in and check-out process really smooth. Katie’s response time is great and ensures that you feel comfortable.
Beautiful place! Our family had a wonderful time! So close to parkway!
Great spot to rent in the Smokies. Hot tub on the back deck along with a grill spot. My 8 year old loved playing pool the first time although the table is a little dated. The little video game barrel was neat too. As for bedrooms and baths, everything was comfy.
Great house with a fantastic kitchen that's fully equipped. You can't beat the location right between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg! Responsive host, plenty of space and no issues at all. Highly recommend booking this one.
Beautiful home. Everyone slept great in their beds! We loved our time here!
Beautiful cabin. Cozy and quaint. Very friendly and responsive host. Would definitely stay again.
Perfect space for a nice getaway with friends.
We were so pleased with our stay. We will definitely plan to stay here again. Katie was so responsive, day and night and answered any questions or requests within a few minutes. She even door dashed space heaters to us. The responses and friendliness of the host were so impressive that we will recommend this home to others. The home is in a great location, it’s convenient to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We were maybe 10 minutes away from all amenities.
Our family decided to do a trip this year instead of exchanging Christmas gifts. It was difficult finding a place to accommodate 10 adults and 6 kids, but this place was perfect! the kitchen and living room areas were incredibly spacious, the bedrooms fit each family perfectly, we were able to have privacy when we wanted while also being able to easily have family time. The house was located super close to plenty of reasturants and amenities. Katie checked in with us at arrival, once during our stay, and once after we had left to ensure everything was going well and that nothing additional was needed. She was very pleasant to work with. After taking everyone's vote, this trip will be a regular thing for us!
Somente elogios, casa perfeita, limpa, tudo muito organizado, cozinha bem equipada, toda minha família ficou bem acomodada. A casa é realmente igual as fotos. A localização também é ótima. Katie uma ótima anfitriã, sempre pronta para responder as duvidas. Somente elogios mesmo.
Great place!
Great location and very close to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Host is very responsive and provides clear and helpful instructions.
Everything about this stay was amazing. Great secluded location but only 15 minutes from either city full of attractions. It felt like I was in an extension of my home. Very well taken care of property and beautifully decorated. Would recommend this to any one wanting to stay in the area!
Great place to stay for our large group. Everything was thought of for our needs. Perfect location to get to Gatlinburg and pigeon forge. Definitely would stay again.
Around the Bend is a fabulous place and Katie is so responsive! Our family stayed over Thanksgiving and we were so excited to see how well stocked the kitchen was. From the downloadable guidebook, the amenities to the ease of checkout we all thoroughly enjoyed our time at Around the Bend!
I knew just from the open windows on the photos that I wanted my friends and I annual cabin trip to be here! The cabin was so beautiful and amazingly decorated. It was so much to do just in the cabin alone. It was ten of us but the cabin provided so much space that we didn’t feel cluttered or anything. My friends and I agreed that every time we come to TN for our cabin trip, THIS will be our cabin pick every time.
Absolutely one of the nicest places we have stayed. Katie was quick to respond and I don’t have one negative thing to say about the place. Pictures match the place perfectly and the rooms are spread out so you have privacy. I will def be staying here again soon
We had the best time. It was very comfortable, homey, and beautiful!
Great place to stay. peaceful, quiet, spacious, and very clean
We had a great weekend getaway with a guys retreat/reunion. Cabin was exactly as described with everything we needed. There was plenty of room for our group of 7 with adequate parking. The cabin is very convenient to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge areas as well as a nice drive to Cades Cove. We spent the days out and came back to unwind each evening at the cabin and enjoy the amenities and catch up. Quiet surroundings and relaxing. We are already planning next year’s stay!
It was a beautiful cabin! I’d love to rent again
The cabin was absolutely beautiful and I have no complaints except I wish we could have enjoyed it for longer.
Place was great, had plenty of space for our group of 14. House was very clean and location was great. Katie was very responsive and helpful with everything. Would definitely rent again
This place was amazing! Katie was great and very helpful through the whole process from beginning to end. I would definitely recommend this place and book again! Thank you Katie!
The chalet came as advertised…and some. Awesome location and wonderful rooms. Hot tub / deck area was one of a kind. Great location and easy access to pigeon forge or Gatlinburg attractions. Will be back!
I’m for sure coming back. It was perfect.
Very nice and spacious home. Plenty of room for large families and groups. Will definitely be back!
