12 Incredible Pigeon Forge Cabins For Your Smoky Mountain Getaway

Less than 7 miles from the heart of Pigeon Forge​​, Northstar Mountain Lodge is like your own mini-resort. Perfect for groups from family reunions to retreats, this six-bedroom cabin can accommodate up to 24 guests. Features include an indoor pool, a hot tub, and a theater room!

In the pool, a waterfall overflows into the grotto, while a bridge crosses over the pool, leading to the jetted spa and the kiddie wading pool. On the deck, relax in the hot tub at twilight surrounded by unobscured, expansive views of the beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains extending all the way to Mount Le Conte. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outside in, and there are several fireplaces as well as an outdoor fire pit to cozy up next to.

Another great place for a get-together, Pool on Summit Point offers over 5,000 square feet of luxury lodge living as well as breathtaking views. Cozy up by the stacked stone fireplace and stare out over the mountains, or head out to the deck to see their beauty from the porch swing, hot tub, patio, or fire pit. Enjoy the heated indoor pool, theater room with cinema-style seating, and game room, complete with a pool table and shuffleboard.

This mountaintop retreat is another fabulous place to get away with friends or family. Cabin on Bluff Summit boasts mountain views from every room. In fact, each of its four bedrooms has a deck from which to enjoy views from the summit of Bluff Mountain. There’s also a sauna for six and a gaming area!

This luxury lodge is so close to Dollywood that you can hear the coal-fired steam engine whistle from inside!

Keep an eye out for wildlife, including turkeys, raccoons, and bears.

Enjoy access to amenities from the hotel nearby, including use of the outdoor heated pool (open 24/7), the firepit with nightly s’mores, live entertainment on weekends, free fishing equipment to use at the river behind the hotel, and games such as horseshoes, cornhole, and volleyball. Treat yourself to Krispy Kreme doughnuts, lemonade, hot tea, coffee, and fruit 24/7 in the front lobby area or take advantage of the free daily pancake breakfast (for guests at specific establishments, including this lodge!) at either of the Reagan’s House of Pancakes locations in Pigeon Forge. 

Just a few miles from Pigeon Forge, this custom-built luxury log home boasts amazing mountain views. We love the antler chandelier, stone fireplace, and wood interior.
