Great stay in the Smoky Mountains

Highly recommend staying at Moonshine Mountain! House was very nice and well appointed, and had a wonderful view of the Smoky Mountains. 25 min drive to downtown Gatlinburg or white water rafting. Our family loved our stay and wished we had more time.

We had a wonderful time staying at Moonshine Mountain with our family! We have kids ranging from 11 to 17 years old, and every single one of them had a blast. The upstairs game room was a massive hit—the kids spent hours playing pool, using the golf simulator, trying out the different arcade games, the pinball machine, and the Pop-a-Shot. It kept everyone completely entertained.We saw quite a few black bears, and they were so fun to see. The property itself is gorgeous and was incredibly clean and beautifully maintained. The beds were all super comfortable, and the bathrooms were beautiful. If you like to cook, the kitchen is fully stocked with tons of dishes, pots, pans, and even several spices.To top it all off, our hosts, Johnny and Ashley, were fantastic. Their communication was excellent throughout the entire process, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable and stress-free. We had a blast and cannot recommend Moonshine Mountain enough!!

This place IS wonderful. The cabin has a beautiful sunrise view. The place is well stocked. My family, ages 7 months through 74 years old, had a wonderful time. We saw bear(s) every day during our stay. The game room is a perfect place for the family to hangout. Johnny is an excellent communicator which includes great directions to find the cabin. When we visit Gatlinburg again, we will be staying at this cabin.

Fantastic Mountain Getaway

Beautiful views from a cabin that checked all of our boxes. Family vacation with our adult kids (7 of us in total) had plenty of room for both group activities and alone time. Host communicated well to answer questions in advance and make check in and check out easy. Far enough from the tourist areas for solitude but close enough to enjoy them. Be prepared for steep mountain roads to get there, but worth the drive.

Absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful cabin! The location was perfect – nestled in the peaceful mountains yet close enough to all the attractions. The cabin itself was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, with cozy touches that made it feel like home. The views from the deck were breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. We enjoyed playing pool, and soaking in the hot tub after a day of hiking. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a peaceful mountain getaway with all the comforts of hom
