LAKE FRONT CABIN ON DOUGLAS LAKE IN THE GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS

*****A LAKE AND MOUNTAIN VACATION!*****

You have found a Historic Property offering spacious and lovingly decorated rooms in an authentic, hand hewn, log cabin on beautiful Douglas Lake. The cabin sits on a 5 acre peninsula over looking the lake. The cabin is a destination unto itself with many private areas to explore and restore. Surrounded by nature, on a pristine lake with woodland trails.
Just 15 minutes from Hwy 66-Gateway to the national park, Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
Popular area attractions are a short drive away.

You can spend the day enjoying the beautiful Douglas Lake and its 600 miles of shoreline. There are small restaurants and bars at the nearby marines. There are also great local bands which perform at several of the marinas during the summer months. Or just relax and enjoy fishing or floating on a raft in our quiet cove or having a mint julep on the back porch. Then head out to grab a bite at one of the many restaurants that are a short 15 minute drive away. You can also shop at the many outlet malls or go explore the many offering at Dollywood. Pigeon Forge and Sevierville are know for there music theaters. You can also enjoy mountain hikes and swim holes in The Great Smoky Mountains.

The Pioneer Trading Post is located just 20 minutes from Dollywood and only 30 minutes from Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and the Smokey Mountain National Park.

We are a 15 minutes drive from Wilderness in The Smokies- One of the largest indoor water park in the world. Rain or shine, you will have plenty of activities to choose from.

1 day bed in the living room (You must request linens for this bed it is $50 extra).

4 BATHROOMS:

2 claw footed tubs with showers

YOU'LL HAVE A 5-ACRE PRIVATE PENINSULA TO YOURSELF!
Parents can relax knowing their kids are always within ear-shot on the 5-acre, gentle sloping knoll, overlooking the lake. Relax on the old porch swing. There are a few wooded pathways, landscaped hillside garden. It's a beautiful haven, where you can truly feel away from it all.

LAKE LEVELS VARY:
PLEASE NOTE : This is a TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority) dam controlled lake. Levels fall slowly beginning in September and fully rise again in April. The winter lake levels are low during off season.

The summer levels stay consistently at their highest, and are easily deep enough for fishing, swimming, and docking a boat with water receding starting around September.
The winter lake level will create a wide, firm, sandy shoreline that is interesting to explore. Many an arrowhead and crystals have been found here.
We recommend that you check TVA website for current levels. We cannot predict the rain fall levels or water level.

OVERFLOWING WITH APPALACHIAN and CHEROKEE CULTURE AND HISTORY:
Parts of the home were built by the first American settlers to the region, each log was hand hewn. You will find early American chestnut walls and ceilings, vintage oak and heart pine floors, spinning wheels, hand-stitched textiles, church pews, butter churns, pie safes, cedar chests, and family antiques throughout, yet with all the conveniences of modern living.

Peaceful, Wonderful

If you want to step back in time and enjoy a peaceful setting while getting away from it all, this place is for you. Tara has done an awesome job decorating the place - it's like a Cracker Barrel morphed into a log cabin, but done with great tact. All the modern amenities and the furniture /beds are comfortable. Enjoyed the fishing dock, hot tub, and the visits from Dixie the dog and her friends, that was fun. Tara very easy to work with. Highly recommend this place and would come back again no doubt.

“Lake front Cabin without a Lake”?? Disappointed!!!

Read carefully because this is a seasonal lake. We were looking for a property by the water and that was the main reason to rent this property for out annual fall family-friend’s retreat, finding out 2 weeks before that the lake was dry and neither we could make a fire pit. Because the complaints, permission to make the fire pit was granted but nothing to do about the lake.

Wonderful Lake Cabin with Plenty of Charm

We had a wonderful time at this property, it is a very unique property with a lot of history and charm that we really enjoyed. There was plenty of privacy with many wonderful areas to explore. The lake access is easy with a nice dock which easily accommodated our jet skis. Tara was very responsive to my questions, and I would definitely recommend this property for anyone looking to have a great time at Douglas Lake.

Gorgeous, roomy, relaxing stay on the lake

This place has a special place in our hearts; it was our 3rd stay here. We've made so many family memories in the cabin: watching movies, playing games, eating together; and outside: on the deck, in the hot tub, on the lake, in the gorgeous yard. There are many wonderful cabins in the Smokies but none as homey and unique as this one made from log cabins. We will be back, Lord willing!

Such a great place!

We took a girls trip to the Pioneer Trading post and could not have asked for a better cabin and location. Everything was perfect from the kitchen to the lake dock to the bedrooms. Every person in our group couldn't help but go on and on about the charm and character inside and out. We had such a great, relaxing time and will definitely be back!

Amazing unique cabin

We had 3 generations on this trip ages 19 to mid 80s. Everyone had a fantastic time. Rented a boat and was able to pull it right up to the dock. Cook of the family loved the stove! My 6 foot son even slept in the loft. The in laws took lots of wonderful walks around the property. Front yard was perfect for a family corn hole competition. Personally i loved the porch bed! Several nights of playing games as a family and incredible laughs. This cabin took you back in time yes was extremely comfortable and had enough modern touches to make all ages comfortable. The only thing i would recommend is updating the listing here.

Wonderful family vacation spot

Great cabin. Loved the dock. Was able to rent a boat locally and move in and out of the cove with ease. Even the local rock eating dog kept the kids well entertained. We would have been happier if we had been able to get a handicap family member to the dock to fish. The house was well furnished. Having it on a large property made you feel far away.

Family Vacation

We had a wonderful stay. Everything was very relaxing and loved by all. Appreciate that it was stocked with everything we needed! We all felt right at home and enjoyed the love that was definately shown in preparing this vacation rental. If anyone needed a quiet spot you could find several private cozy places. My only comment would be that the houskkeeping completely clean and remove items out of the refrigerator! I was not happy when we opened the door to put our food in it. Otherwise, we will definitely come back. Thank you for caring about your renters opinions.

Beautiful property with comfortable beds and lake access. We enjoyed the common areas

This home had everything we wanted. Loved the decks and outside spaces. We struggled with the convection oven and never figured it out in either mode. Lots of towels, ceiling fans, washer dryer, loaner cooler, house is set up for all you could need. Comes with a very sweet neighborhood dog that visits everyday.
