ECHO PLACE. A cozy Family Base Camp for Hiking, Skiing, and Area Exploration!

Echo Place has over 1,580 SF of living area with lots of surrounding porches and decks. A bedroom and bath on each of the three levels makes the ideal setup for up privacy when more than one couple/family come together for fun in the Smokies. We advertise to sleep (8) due to size of cabin. However with the sofa bed and loft cubby it can actually sleep eight (8) adults and three (3) children comfortably. Plenty of very well lit parking for at least 4 vehicles. Zero steps to the main level!

The Main Level features a bedroom with King bed and bunkbeds for kids/teenagers, HDTV and DVD player. The bathroom is shared with the main living area. Open kitchen/dining/living room with HDTV/DVD Player and Bluetooth surround sound to stream your own music. A huge stone fireplace, soaring ceilings, plenty of glass/french doors to the decks and woods make this space seem huge. The deck space off the main level includes a large covered porch with picnic table, open decking with Adirondack chairs and a bar w/seating to take in the views and mountain air. Also a half-court shuffleboard off the parking lot makes for great outdoor fun. The hiking center is at the entrance with hiking poles, binoculars, and a ruck pack full of emergency items.

The Loft Level features a Queen bed w/child sleeping area, private bath and French doors leading to a nice balcony and sitting area. HDTV.

The Lower Level features a third bedroom with King bed, HDTV, UT themed laundry room, and a recreation room. The bathroom is shared between the rec room and bedroom. Recreation includes a beautiful handcrafted shuffleboard table, an air hockey table, and a 3-in-1 bumper pool/poker/game table. Comfortable sectional for viewing movies on the large surround sound HDTV with Bluetooth theater. Plenty of movies and games provided for your use as well as several board games.
Off the Rec Room is an enclosed screened in porch with a bubbling hot tub and comfortable seating to take in the night. A grille area is just outside (bring your own charcoal).
Internet and Streaming Services provided along with plenty of movies onsite for family movie night.

Mountain Getaway

Thanks to all of the space and amenities in this house, the only time we left was to go skiing at Ober, which was incredibly close. We have gone on many trips over all the country, this was by far the best experience we have had and are looking forward to returning with our whole gang!

Wonderful family cabin

This was a great cabin for a family. We had a total of 6 adults, 3 kids under 4yo, and 1 baby. It accommodated all of us very well. If you want to see bears, this is the place! We saw bears all three days we were there. We will definitely book again.

Bear-Filled Stay in the Smoky Mountains

Our family vacation to Smoky Mountain National Park and Dollywood was made better by our rental home. It had ample space and many amenities, including a hot tub and access to a community pool. Although the bathrooms are a bit outdated and the bears are definitely smart enough to get into your car, we had a great time and would stay here again.

Daily bear activity!

The house was all that we needed. Plenty of room for the 4 of us. The hot tub was wonderful after hiking all day! Parking was easy. The host was very responsive with answers to questions. It was dated & could use new carpet & brighter paint. But, the bear activity was exciting! We enjoyed watching the bears daily! We would definitely rent this house again!
