Cabin Review

Log cabins have been a love of ours for a long time. You see, a log cabin magazine is how my husband and I were brought together at Lowes Home Improvement. I was flipping through the magazine during one of my shifts, and Scott walked up to tell me about his love of log cabins. The rest is history!

We were thrilled to be able to be able to review a cabin from the CabinsOfTheSmokyMountains.com. As we drove up to the entrance, our eyes fixated on the amazing breathtaking waterfalls.

Cabins of the Smoky Mountains are part of The Gatlinburg Falls Resort. They are operated by Venture Resorts which happens to be the largest cabin rental agency in the Smoky Mountains. The resort started out with cabins in Gatlinburg Falls Parkview Resort (where we stayed), but has now grown to over 500 cabins in resorts around Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Sevierville and Wears Valley.

The editors of Southern Living Magazine named the company the “#1 Family Resort in the Smokies.” The superior service, the cleanliness of the cabins, and the care the staff takes with the guests are just a few reasons why over 36% of the guests come back again. I want to share with you why we will come back. Click the picture to play the short video.

The entire family fell in love with this cabin. The time the staff takes to clean the cabins can be seen once you walk into the cabin. Every little feature was spotless! Cleanliness means so much as it creates an inviting environment for the entire family. The space was over abundance for our family of four. Our particular cabin (Angel’s Window) was a 2-bedroom cabin, but there were also two pull-out sofas that would sleep four more people. Each bedroom has a king-sized bed. As you can tell in the video, the family had plenty of space to spread out and not feel on top of each other.

The girls wanted to go to bed late and get up early to play in the game room. The downstairs housed a pool table, air hockey table, and two arcade machines. We couldn’t even check-out until right at the last minute because the entire family was enthused with playing the games. Laughs could be heard for hours.

Each morning, I would walk onto the balcony and just stare at this amazing view God has created. All worries at that moment were put aside to cherish the moment. Coffee cup in hand and rocking away in the wooden rocking chairs.

I could see the cabins used for a family reunion or even two families vacationing together. As you saw in the video, the cabin has a full kitchen so you could cook all meals at the cabin. At night, we would turn on the gas fireplace and just talk about the day. No technology around us, just the fire and the family. These are memories that will last forever! The girls did not want to leave but our check-out time was upon us. We will be back!

Check out their website and see which cabin would suit your family. It will be a vacation you will never forget!
