We truly enjoyed our stay at Melton’s cabin. It was very clean, cozy and decorated so nicely. The views from the cabin were amazing! The landscaping around the cabin was well kept with beautiful roses, green grass, many types of trees that provided privacy from other cabins nearby. Janice was a graceful host and provided advice on how to navigate the busy traffic in Gatlinburg. The neighborhood the cabin was in is a great location. You can go the back roads to the East Parkway or another shortcut to get to the Gatlinburg bypass and another way to go directly to Pigeon Forge.

Melton's View

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Melton's View October 10-14. We particularly enjoyed the secluded location, which was still very conveniently located to both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The lovely cabin, which has a wonderful history, has a very rustic appearance, but is thoroughly modern! Janice, our host, was very cordial, and we enjoyed talking with her. We would definitely consider staying there again!
