Smoky Mountain Winter:Log Cabin w/Pool, Game Room w/ Pool Table, Decks,Views

Welcome to Howlin' at the Moon, one of the extraordinary cabins offered by Moonrise Vacation Properties, LLC in the picturesque Smoky Mountains. This remarkable log cabin showcases meticulous handcrafted construction, featuring visible beams and natural tongue & groove logs that exude rustic charm in the serene Smoky Mountain region of Eastern Tennessee. Nestled on five acres of private land, this tranquil retreat shares its enchanting surroundings with its twin cabin, Barkin' at the Moon. Despite its secluded location, you'll find that Pigeon Forge's Parkway is just a quick five-minute drive away.

Immerse yourself in the breathtaking natural beauty while dining on the table and benches of the front porch. Step inside, and the main floor welcomes you with a cozy living room adorned with an electric fireplace, a smart TV, and a queen-sized sleeper sofa for added comfort. The dining area boasts a custom-made reclaimed wood table and chairs, along with bar seating for three. The fully equipped kitchen creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. A bedroom with a queen-sized bed, a smart TV, and an en-suite bathroom featuring a stand-alone shower, jetted tub, and double vanity is also located on this level. For your convenience, a full-sized washer and dryer are provided.

Unwind and embrace the serenity of the surroundings while swaying on the double glider of the back porch. Upstairs, a spacious open loft awaits, offering a smart TV, a queen-sized bed, a rocker, and a shared restroom with an oversized shower. The upstairs bedroom provides cozy nooks and modern amenities while maintaining the rustic ambiance of a true cabin retreat.

The basement level is an entertainment haven, complete with a queen-sized sleeper sofa, a 55" smart TV, board games, a pool table, and a 3000-game arcade unit. The indoor pool and spa provide breathtaking views, and the deck on the basement level features rocking chairs where you can relax and soak in the tranquility of nature.

The cabin features two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and a loft with a queen bed. Indulge in the indoor pool with jets and an integrated spa, relax in the TV area, or test your skills in the game room with a pool table and arcade game on the basement level. Both levels boast covered decks with stunning views, allowing you to fully appreciate the magnificence of these cabins in the Great Smoky Mountains.

At Howlin' at the Moon, we gladly welcome well-behaved dogs for $35 per dog per night. The dog must be over 12 months old, vaccinated and crated when left alone. Unfortunately, cats are not allowed due to owner allergies.

While the cabin's driveway is steep, it is easily manageable, and a 4WD vehicle is necessary during winter. Each cabin provides parking space for two vehicles in the designated area, with additional vehicles accommodated at the bottom of the drive.

Please note that we do not provide baby gates and do not allow them to be pressure-mounted due to damage to tongue and groove.

NOTE: Government ID required to be sent when rental agreement is signed for booking to be accepted. Primary renter must be age 25 or older, and must remain on site for the reservation term.

Centric and very well equipped

I have stayed in many cabins in Tennessee and this one is by far the best equipped cabin and the most centric. It is within 2-3 miles of all the restaurants and attractions yet is far enough up the mountain that it makes you feel peaceful and tranquil. The cabin has a pool that is a bit bigger than the pictures lead you to believe. Owners are great to deal with it and they have paid a lot of attention to the decoration of the cabin as well as making sure you have everything you need to make you feel welcome. This cabin is dog friendly and they make the fury friends feel welcome with their own bed and eating station. Definitely recommend it.

Nice family get away

We selected the cabin to stay in because it was away from the throngs of people in the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area, but it was close enough that we could go on excursions there if we desired. We opted to see the many features in the Great Smoky Mountains most of the week, since the cabin was also convenient to that area. The cabin was clean and well furnished. The kitchen had ample supplies to use for cooking and the grill was clean and had plenty of gas to use as well. The pool and hot tub was a great feature for our time away in the mountains. The pool table provided some family entertainment where the kids learned the "old folks" were sharks on the table. The road the cabin is located on is not busy, so it was peaceful sitting on the porch and enjoying the evenings. The entire process was easy and communication with the host was seamless. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this cabin and would definitely use this host again.

The Extra Touch

This property was definitely dog friendly. There were leashes, bowls, treats, and even a ball for your pups to play. It was nice to have soap, shampoo, and conditioner already in the showers. What surprised me was their extra touch of cotton swabs, makeup remover, and flossers too! There were plenty of extra towels, toilet paper, and cleaning soaps too. The high chair was also nice to have there already as well as some pool toys. One thing I will say is to bring baby gates if you have small dogs or small kids. The property manager was always quick to respond and kept in touch before, during, and after our trip. We wanted to try the walking trail but it got way too steep to attempt in the rain.

Peaceful Retreat

The cabin was meticulous! The extra little amenities were like being in a five star hotel. Plush towels, hair products in the showers, snacks and coffee. There was even dog shampoo which we unfortunately had to use after our day at the river.☺☺ The owners went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Even though their was a neighbor next door it was so peaceful. We spent the majority of our time on the decks. We did bring our own bag chairs which ended up being a good idea since there is very little seating on the decks. The pool and the hot tub was just perfect for the little ones. We only went into town just once during our 4 night stay but the cabin was pretty close to all the fun in pigeon forge. I don't think you would be sorry renting any one of their properties. We would love to go back. Thank you Jamie!

Beautiful cabin!

I rented this cabin for my in-laws to vacation with us while having their own space. They loved everything about this cabin! The views were great. The cabin was super cozy. There were little snacks and a note left out on arrival that was very thoughtful. The cabins are very private even with another cabin so close by. The pool and hot tub were such neat little features. Since they were inside, it was pretty easy to use them even though it was freezing out! There were so many little details that we appreciated during our stay- the snack box, k-cups for the coffee pot, cozy blankets. There were even dogs bowls and a crate at the cabin that we could use for the dogs. I did need to contact the owner about a small issue with the security system beeping, and they got back to me within a few minutes and were able to fix the issue on their end. Cannot state how much I appreciate their quick response. The cabin was absolutely wonderful to stay in, and the little details really helped elevate the experience and make us want to come back!

Not our top choice

The owners/hosts are very responsive which is a plus. We originally booked this cabin because we wanted an indoor heated pool so my baby could swim and enjoy the pool with us. The pool was too cold for my son to enjoy which was disappointing since he’s the reason we booked this cabin. The location of the cabin wasn’t bad, but the driveway was the biggest downside for us. The driveway was straight up and had a pretty sharp curve in the middle of it making it difficult to go up/down as it’s also narrow. The parking and turn around area at the top is also very tight. I would also recommend bringing your own high chair if you have a little one as the one provided isn’t the best. It is one you attach to a chair but is difficult to put baby in and out of and doesn’t have a lot of room for chunky thighs. The beds were also not very comfortable for us, but maybe it was just too firm for our liking. The cabin was beautiful but there were too many things we didn’t like for us to choose this cabin again in the future.

Family Trip

The cabin was clean, and had all the utensils and supplies you need for a week away. The communication with the host was quick and easy. I'm no expert at renting cabins, but i feel like we got a great deal for 5 nights. Plus, there is a small pool on the bottom level. Came with 2 young children who stayed in the pool as much as they could. The hot tub did not get very hot but it was still nice.

Amazing Cabin nestled in TN

Wow! What an amazing stay! Typically, we stay at a resort when visiting the area but this year, we decided for privacy with a pool!! My favorite part of our stay was the great attention to detail that the hosts put into this property! They thought of it all! The location is also easily accessible to the main strip of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Our hosts were very communicative and there is access to an online guide, which fully prepares you for the cabin and surrounding area. 10/10!

Not worth the price Hot tub does not get hot

The cabin itself is nice but we encounter several issues during our stay. The host was super responsive up until the issues occurred. 1.) Hot tub does not get hot. Some of the jets blow cold water no matter how long the timer has ran. I talked to the host before we went and she said the hot tub is on a timer and ensured it would heat up to 100 degrees after running a few cycles. My bath water is hotter than the hot tub. 2. The arcade game was broken and the right joystick did not work.3. There was a horrible smell coming out of the master bathroom vent. I had to cover it with a towel and still couldn’t stand to even brush my teeth in there.4. When the upstairs shower was running we had water running down the wall in the master bathroom.5. The pool table was missing balls. 6.The ceiling fans had a lot of dust and had not been cleaned prior to our stay. 7. The host was super responsive until I had issues she then said that she would send her handy man out. He said that he would have to fix these things after we left. When I ask about the hot tub I then got no response from the host or the handy man ever again. This cabin is over rated and I would not have spent that much money on something that I couldn’t even get ready in the master bath. We will not be using this host again!

Feel deceived

My wife and I selected this property as a break from home strictly on the fact that the hot tub was indoors. Since we were staying in January and spend a lot of time in the hot tub this swayed our decision. On arrival the hot tub was cold and I contacted the property owners. They blamed a confusing switch at first, then said it had to run for at least 3 hours to heat up. It never did. The following day they advised a repairman stopped by while we were out and fixed it by bypassing a solenoid and it raised 2 degrees while he was there. The temp remained in the low 80's. Industry standards are 100-102 for normal operating temps. So instead of indoor, we had no hot tub for the whole stay. We also saw entries in the guest book and VRBO where prior guests complained about the hot tub not working over 30 days ago, but the owners still seemed surprised when I called.The description says it's a steep driveway, but that's an understatement. Our AWD slipped going up in the rain and the anti-lock kicks in on the way down in the rain.The rental agreement requires a 10-day notice if you plan to leave a negative review so the owners can address it. I provided the 10-day notice and never received a response. Disappointing.

The people that own this could not have been more accommodating and friendly. We would definitely stay here again when back in the area. It is on an incline and with snowy weather, you may have to park at the bottom of the hill; but that is to be expected sometimes in the middle of January in Tennessee. Great overall experience.

Cabin was nice

Cabin was very nice , they say pool and hot tub is heated to 82 degrees it was not . It was so cold property owner said it’s because the property was vacant and just needed constant turning of the heater . We did this for 3 days nonstop the pool was 66 degrees and the hot tub was 68 , The driveway is terrible falling rocks where you park and not much of a yard if you take pets . The driveway is very steep if you don’t have 4 wheel drive don’t rent this cabin . The views are misleading on the website .
