Always - Mountain views and a cozy hot tub!

Originally established in 2002, Always was rebuilt in the fall of 2017 after the 2016 Gatlinburg Fire.
At 624 sq. ft., this one-bedroom log cabin has a beamed ceiling, natural pine tongue-and-groove wood, and a metal roof. It is designed for comfort and coziness. Snuggle up inside or on the cabin-wide porch, focusing on either the warm glow from the gas stone fireplace or the unforgettable views of the Smoky Mountains which offer morning and evening scenes of light and space. A treat is watching that famous smoky mist rise.

Upon entering the cabin, and for your comfort and ease, a coat rack with a bench is available for hanging items and removing boots. The open living has a fireplace, a fully furnished kitchen, and dining for two. Glass panels and windows and a glass door give natural light and allow for outdoor views. Relax, while watching the TCL 50 in smart TV. The king bedroom suite has a jetted tub, a private toilet and shower area, a clothes closet, and a laundry closet complete with a washer and dryer.

Relax and refresh with privacy on the full-length porch, which is accessible from both the living area and the bedroom. Porch life is peaceful… rocking and talking, sharing a snack at the bistro table, or soaking in the hot tub. For outdoor cooking, the grill is conveniently located next to the parking area.

The minimum age to rent this cozy cabin is 21.

This Gatlinburg vacation home provides 2 towels + 1 washcloth per guest the property sleeps.

AWD/4WD is recommended to reach this classic Appalachian cabin in the Smokies.

Windy roads to mountain views
A little north of Gatlinberg, a cabin in the woods with a patio facing west. Made for a nice weekend away.

Awesome Always
It was clean and awesome! There were a few minor issues, but overall, our stay was amazing. Just remember to bring your own supplies because it's pretty remote. We absolutely loved it!

Nice
This is a great little cabin with great views of the mountains and mostly secluded, but still private. The only problem I had, was there was some restriction on the faucet in the shower, so you couldn't turn it more than half way on resulting in a lukewarm to cold shower. Would have loved to have a hot shower during my week stay! Also, would have liked to have a toaster in the kitchen.

Great view but hard to find!!
Loves the cabin itself but I got lost on the way. The directions and address are not clearly marked. Steep hills and yoj have to pass the driveway and turn around to drive in and up the steep hill. Once I got there everything was great. Cozy cabin with a great view!

View is a 5, otherwise a 4 stay
The view at this property is the best point of the stay. You wake up to a mountain view that is absolutely gorgeous. The property is clean and cozy. Our stay was a 4 rating though because of the skimping on the little touches that could really have enhanced our stay. Only provided three towels (come on--there was a hot tub), no hair dryer, no coffee filters for the coffee maker, no laundry detergent, no info about the area or recommendations--these small touches could have really made the stay a 5 rating. Great proximity to the park. NOTE: Do not rely on your GPS to find this place, carefully follow the instructions or you will not find it. Also, you really need 4 wheel drive to get this high up on the mountain--thank goodness for our Jeep. We enjoyed the place but probably would try somewhere else next time.

This one really DOES have mountain views!!
A beautiful place!! So many others boast of mountain views, then to find out it's only a small sliver or glimpse, or other cabins are stacked on top of each other with no privacy. The ALWAYS cabin stands on it's own and has a panoramic view of the Smoky Mountains 180 degrees from the deck. Coffee on the deck in the morning = beautiful mountain view. Relaxing in the wonderful warm, clean hot tub = beautiful mountain view. Sitting at the dinner table w/chairs on the other end of the deck = beautiful mountain view. We did a lot of research, this one is the BEST! The privacy for us was as equally inportant. We were treated like royalty. Thank you ALWAYS cabin!

On our Honeymoon
On our Honeymoon, The place was wonderful , fantastic views. It was exciting to see some Bears come up near the cabin. King bed was comfortable. Hot tub was Great. Everything was well maintained . 2 things that could be addressed. We're not big TV watchers on Vaca. but for some the TV channel line-up is Absolute GARBAGE with NO Guide List to see what's even available. #2 the Outside AC plug did not work But we allways carry extra extension cords so had power Outside.
