This cabin is perfect for a group, or a party of two. We loved our stay, and Virginia thought of everything to make our anniversary trip memorable. We loved relaxing in the hot tub after a long day of hiking. Close to everything, but far enough away to enjoy nature. We highly recommend booking your stay here.

This was our 5th year at this cabin, and we'll be back again next year! We absolutely love secluded feeling while being so close to Gatlinburg. We love hanging out at the cabin, playing video games, board games, and hanging out in the hot tub. And we love the short drive to the park for hikes and picnics.

Cabin was beautiful and super clean. Beds were comfy. Hot tub on deck was great for relaxing after busy days out exploring the area. Beautiful view off the deck. Spent every morning drinking coffee on the deck watching the gorgeous sun rises. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking meals. Host was exceptional and very responsive. Cabin location had easy access to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.

Another wonderful vacation

We've enjoyed staying at Jackalopia for the past 4 years now! Every year we love the relaxing cabin. It's in such a great location, out of the busy areas of Gatlinburg, but close enough for a short drive to the GSM park, downtown Gatlinburg, and even Dollywood! Our family loves hanging out in the hot tub, playing arcade games, and just chilling out at the cabin.

Property was perfect for our family! Clean, nicely decorated and supplied, good location to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge and grocery stores. Hot tub was clean and cozy at night. Saw quite a few bears one was able to get our car door open before we got the keys to lock it! We scared it away and it left peacefully, but definitely had to be aware of our surroundings coming and going to the cabin. It was a perfect weekend getaway, would definitely stay again!
