Other things to note
*If you're coming in the winter time (November-February), WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND 4-WHEEL DRIVE OR TIRE CHAINS for the last 1/4 mi up the mountain due to unforeseen weather. See Rental Agreement under House Rules for more info.*
*McGhee Tyson Airport in Knoxville is a 45 minute drive from our cabin and is the recommended airport to fly into if you’re coming to the Smokies*
Neighborhood Highlights- Where you’ll be
Wears Valley is centrally located to the Great Smoky Mountains, and most locals in the area drive through Wears Valley instead of the parkway to avoid traffic as well as to see the beautiful, peaceful scenery of the mountains. Wears Valley is quieter than Pigeon Forge-Gatlinburg and our cabin is nestled in the woods, and yet close to a main highway, so while we have neighbors, there is privacy in our neighborhood and the noise level is low.
Getting around
There are a few twists and turns along your way to our cabin, but nothing crazy. The last 1/4 mile to our cabin is going up the mountain with one sharp turn and one more turn.
