Beautiful home - great views and bonding with my family

I genuinely had such an amazing experience staying in this home. The layout of the house being so open allowed us all to bond in the communal spaces, while still being sectioned enough that the kids could have fun in the basement while we hung out in the living room or played poker upstairs. The kids really had a fun time with bunk beds and the mini movie theatre. It was nice that they also had games to play in the basement so they weren't on their phones as much. The kitchen was lovely and everyone was able to enjoy our meals at the same table together which I really liked. I loved the view from the driveway and hot tub and we were able to watch the sunset each night. Another bonus were the nearby activities so when we got bored of being at home, we were able to drive around town and visit Dollywood and "Goats on the Roof", as well as go hiking at nearby trails. Overall, this home created such a warm, welcoming atmosphere and my family and I truly had such a wonderful experience. Everything was clean and orderly and the layout of the house was perfect for bonding with my family combined with a pretty view. I would likely visit again!

My trip

What an amazing stay! The cabin was spotless, and the view of the mountains was absolutely stunning. It’s so peaceful! We had nearly 20 people, and there was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was fully stocked, the rooms were comfy and warm, and the jacuzzi was perfect. We also had so much fun with all the board games, video games, and the movie theater with endless movie options.One thing to keep in mind, if you’re visiting during the winter, it can take a while for the roads to be cleared after a snowstorm. We went during heavy snow and ended up missing our flight because we couldn’t leave the cabin until the roads were safe. Definitely something to plan for, but other than that, it was a fantastic trip.

So much room

The beautiful huge cabin, the ease of working with the property manager/owner, the comfortable beds, the well equipped kitchen, the ample parking ( we came from 4 states), the incredible view, the quiet, the bears, the fire pit, the game room and even the hair raising drive up that mountain made for an unforgettable time of making memories for our family.

The Knotty Lodge was a wonderful place to spend fall break with multiple families and lots of kids. Beautiful setting and a great location to the quieter side of the Smokies! The cabin had better amenities and better maintained and cleaner than any cabin I have stayed in the area.
