My family of five spent a long weekend here right before Christmas, and we had a wonderful time. The hot tub and movie area were huge hits with everyone. The location is perfect: close enough to be just 10-20 minutes from all the main attractions, yet tucked away for that peaceful Smoky Mountains vibe. This was our third year visiting the area around Christmas, and this property easily had the best views we’ve experienced so far. We’d definitely recommend it to family and friends!

We had a wonderful time staying at Sophie’s hideout. The view was spectacular, the bear sightings were entertaining and the owner/host was very helpful. Also, the drive up was not so bad, but I do recommend arriving before dark the first time up. I would definitely stay here again.

We had so much fun. It’s near the city strip! Kids love the games and theater! It’s set up like a home away from home. We had everything we needed. Take you time on the road up! It was beautiful we had Thanksgiving in this cabin! It was decorated with Christmas decor but it was still nice! YES you will see bears! We saw two and they were babies! 10/10 from us!
