Cozy cabin w/ hot tub, nestled in the woods - conveniently minutes from downtown

Fireside Villa Retreat is nestled in the woods of Big Ridge Mountain Resort. Just minutes away from attractions and restaurants but yet very peaceful and serene. This cozy villa can sleep up to 5 guests. Enjoy the wood burning fireplace and a movie, play some of your favorite board games, or soak in the hot tub — there’s fun to be had by all.

🌟 Just 3 miles to Ripley’s Aquarium & downtown Gatlinburg
🌟 4 miles to Smokey Mountain National Park
🌟 11 miles to Dollywood & Pigeon Forge

This rental is for the entire villa so you will not see me and there will not be anyone else in the cabin. Should you have any questions or concerns, I will be available through text, call or Airbnb messaging.

The cabin is located on Big Ridge Mountain. This is a wooded quiet area with seasonal views. The mountain also has a community pool/club house available for your use.

Entry into the cabin will be via a keypad lock. You will receive a unique code prior to check-in.

You will have access to the entire home - open living room (sleeping arrangements via pull out sleeper sofa couch and an air mattress), kitchen and dining room, master bedroom (sleeping arrangement via king size bed) & jacuzzi tub, stand alone bathroom, deck with hot tub, and spacious yard.

The nearest airport is McGhee Tyson Airport. The Gatlinburg trolly is a great option for downtown areas. Gatlinburg also offers taxis, Uber, and Lyft.

Wildlife is common in this area. Please be aware of bears, coyotes, turkey, and foxes. It is important that there is no food left outside with the exception of the latched trash bin.

Our stay was wonderful! Nice and quiet but also right outside of all things happening in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Bed was very comfy. Hot tub was an added plus.

Weekend Getaway

Overall the cabin was beautiful! The hot tub was nice. However, the bath couldn’t be used due to not enough hot water getting back to it. Also, all the windows in the cabin need repairs- none of them would stay open. The kitchen window was broken on arrival but the property manager and maintenance resolved the issue quickly.

Excellent location, lovely property

Property is far enough out of the way to be quiet (and even spot a few bears) but only 10-15 minutes from local attractions. Will definitely return.

Our Stay

We had such a great time! The cabin was close to shopping/attractions, but also tucked away! Which we loved! The cabin itself was very nice and clean. We enjoyed walking around the area. The hosts checked in throughout our trip. Definitely recommend!

Great Mountain Getaway

We loved the cozy atmosphere of the cabin and its location. The cabin was clean, welcoming and warm. It was a convenient location and we loved how close everything was. Everything was amazing. However, the only disappointment we did have was that the jacuzzi tub quickly ran out of hot water so it wouldn’t fill up all the way or even half way without getting cold. Other than that, it was an amazing little cabin. Again, we loved the cleanliness, privacy, and homey charm of our stay!

Anniversary trip

We had such a lovely stay. We were looking to stay somewhere we could take our bulldog puppy on our anniversary vacation. I cannot tell you how great this cabin was for our little family. Away from all the noise for a pup. Views were amazing during the fall. So close to everything. We will be staying again!

Perfect Romantic Cabin in the Woods

My husband and I traveled to Gatlinburg for our 5 year anniversary celebration! This cabin was the perfect mix of cozy and modern, and we absolutely loved the hot tub and fireplace! Very clean and all the amenities we needed, as well as being very close to the downtown area! Our only complaint was the water pressure in the shower was a literal trickle but we just made due. Overall amazing experience and we will be back!

The cabin was very well equipped from the extra touches of coffee and cocoa to the comfy king size bed, the cabin felt very homey. The cabin is in a great location, far enough away from the crowds of Gatlinburg yet only a 5 min drive.
