About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Just minutes from Downtown Gatlinburg!

Free Ticket to Dollywood and other Attractions as well!

Nestled within the heart of the breathtaking Great Smoky Mountains, this charming 1500-square-foot haven is tailor-made for couples seeking a romantic retreat and mere minutes from downtown Gatlinburg. Loaded with an array of amenities, this hideaway promises an unforgettable escape.

As you ascend to the upper level, you'll discover a delightful game room featuring a pool table and a flat-screen TV, accompanied by a full bath. From this vantage point, you'll enjoy a splendid overview of the living area below. Moving to the main level, prepare to be enchanted by the generously-sized master bedroom, complete with a king-sized bed, a flat-screen TV, and a see-through fireplace, enhancing the ambiance. Additionally, indulge in relaxation with an extra-large whirlpool tub for two.

The spacious living area seamlessly merges with a fully equipped kitchen, creating an inviting atmosphere for culinary adventures. An open living room, with a dual fireplace separating it from the master bedroom, adds warmth and charm to the space. Step out onto the expansive rear deck to unwind in the large hot tub, surrounded by the soothing warmth of the waters, providing the perfect respite after a day filled with shopping, dining, and a myriad of activities.

For your convenience, a stackable washer and dryer are conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen. The chalet is thoughtfully decorated in a "restomod" style, exuding a unique and inviting atmosphere that perfectly complements the stunning mountain views and the natural beauty of the surroundings.

Please note that the driveway does have a somewhat steep incline, and during winter weather conditions, four-wheel or all-wheel drive is essential for safe access. Rest assured, you'll find ample parking space for two vehicles to accommodate your needs.

Pet Fee is $60 per pet.

Pleasant stay

Overall the stay was pleasant. Only two minor points of complaint: Upstairs toilet had issues flushing and outdoor hot tub controls were 'broken' or intentionally unresponsive w/ temp stuck at 100 degrees (probably for safety reasons).

Very pleased!

My husband and I wanted a last minute weekend getaway and I booked this rental and we were very pleased! The response was immediate when I emailed asking questions and the check in process was so smooth. The house was very clean and very cozy. The area was beautiful and quiet yet we were only minutes away from downtown Gatlinburg. We did not bring pets but glad its an option for a future stay. Very impressed with our last minute reservation and will book directly with Diamond Mountain rentals!

Great time in the Smoky Mountains

We enjoyed our stay in the great Smoky Mountains. The house was just perfect for us. We did several fun hikes, saw a bear on the neighbor's deck, hit all the fun spots in Gatlinburg. We will be back!

Great getaway!

We enjoyed our weekend here. Very clean and cozy and the bed was super comfortable. Our only disappointment was that the fireplace shown was not real. The kitchen had everything we needed for our mornings and evenings, we just suggest wine glasses be added.

2 bears first day, Awesome!!!

Great location on the mountain, we had great mountain setting from the deck and was nice and quiet. The cabin was nicely laid out for convienience and useability. The hot tub on the deck was nice and warm but couldnt figure out how to use the jets, it was dark out so probably operator error. My only critique was that the "fire place" is an electric, i couldnt tell from the pictures. The property was clean and everything operated as it should. We saw 2 black bears the first day and that set the tone.

This was a great place to stay!

We were happy with our stay! Clean property, cozy but definitely not to small for two! If you are not familiar with this area, do yourself a favor and come during the day. The driveway is a little intimidating! The bed is comfy and it has great water pressure. All dealings with staff were very pleasant. We recommend this property!

SUPER Steep Road

The road to get up to the property is super steep and so is the driveway. However, the hosts were super helpful and tried everything to accommodate us. If you have experience driving on mountain roads, you’ll have no issues. We are so appreciative of Diamond Mountain rentals and will more than likely call to book with them again. We will just request no steep roads. The house is super nice with a retro interior. We loved the house and the view.
