WHY THIS GUIDE EXISTS

A Tradition That Started Long Before Airbnb

People have been renting cabins in the Smokies for decades, and we've been part of it since the beginning, long before Airbnb even existed. For generations, families and travelers have been drawn to these mountains for the views, the trails through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and the great variety of activities no matter the season. So it's no surprise that communities and resorts began being built specifically to cater to them.

Today, the area is home to over 40 communities and resorts, each with its own character, amenities, and features across Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Sevierville, Wears Valley, and beyond. Some offer resort-style pools and clubhouses. Others sit tucked away on quiet ridgelines with nothing but mountain views. The range is enormous, and if our deep knowledge of the area can help you find the right fit, we're glad to share it.
