Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Great Smoky Mountains

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb with our family of 10, ranging from a baby to grandparents. The house was meticulously maintained and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing trip. The layout was perfect, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out while still having great common areas for gathering. Every room was beautifully designed, so no one felt like they got the “lesser” room. The views were absolutely incredible, and we loved the added amenities—board games, foosball, a jacuzzi, and a grill. The host was fantastic—super responsive, helpful with local recommendations, and proactive in keeping us informed about a nearby fire. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this home for any group looking for a relaxing and well-equipped retreat!

My family and I enjoyed this rental while we celebrated my son's college graduation at Maryville College. This home is less than 10 minutes from the college and offers a warm, inviting environment for all in attendance. The hosts were clear on expectations and responded quickly to any questions. We would definitely rent here again.

This was the second place I ever camped — the far campsite is epic, as is the cabin! Everything one could want, and incredibly responsive hosts. And the setting is mind blowing…just gorgeous.

It is such a beautiful home and very secluded. We had an amazing week staying there and hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains. The home had a great sound system and hot tub which really put it over the top. The no WiFi made you really disconnect from everything and enjoy the views. Overall a great place to just relax and enjoy nature.

We had a great overall experience, we always love the waynesville area. The home was clean, organized, and exactly as described. Host was very thorough with instructions and very easy to Interact with. 10/10 would stay again!

Very clean and quiet home. Our stay was great we had beautiful views. Sadly we didnt spend alot of time in the home as we were visiting family. Great vacation home if you just want to relax and get away.

We had a wonderful stay. The place is nice, roomy and made us feel right at home. Drake was an excellent host and very quick to respond with any issues that may have arisen. We stayed 4 weeks and honestly, hated to have to leave. The place is on the side of a mountain in the trees so its quiet and peaceful. Its away from the hussle and bussle, but also close enough to everything, such as Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, which makes it the perfect location in my opinion. We highly recommend this place. Its a must stay when coming to Gatlinburg and surrounding areas. We will definately be back. Thank you for a wonderful vacation experience.

Having stayed in a number of houses on this street before, I knew it was a great location and in walking distance to town. From the start Kirk was very communicative and available to any questions or needs we had. The setup is a little different as there are two separate houses sharing common deck and outdoor space but only one of the houses has a full kitchen setup and you have to walk through one bedroom to get to another in the front house. Considering it was a "girls" trip it wasn't an issue for us but traveling with other couples it could be. Sitting outside on the deck, listening to the creek run is one of the best things about this property!

Don and Renie are top notch hosts! They have thought of everything to make your stay perfect-snacks, drinks, comfortable mattresses, ample towels, games, and even a frozen pizza in the fridge! Their mountaintop rental has a beautiful view of WCU campus with comfortable outdoor spaces for soaking in the peaceful surroundings. Don has excellent local recommendations and is a great source of information regarding Western Carolina University. We felt so incredibly welcome! We’ll be back!

very beautiful very private definitely recommend

Thank you for having my family and I in your beautiful property. We all felt right at home and were extremely comtortabe. The refreshments were a sweet touch and the veiw is gorgeous! Much appreciation xoxo - Natalie & Family

I have lived in a lot of places over the past year while traveling for school, and this was the best of the bunch. Everything was great, including a clean comfortable space, available toiletries, efficient appliances, simple check in and out, amazing 10/10 mountain view.

This place was amazing and the backyard was beautiful. We had a blast. It's not too far from all of the restaurants and activities/attractions in pigeon forge. Takes about 30-40 mins to get to everything. The hot tub was the cherry on top. I 100% will be back !

We enjoyed this peaceful location. Felt like home with a lot of amenities, clean rooms and a great value. Would stay here again for sure.

My wife and I honeymooned here . The place was beautiful, spacious and clean . With a view that was TO DIE FOR. The last night we met Jose , we talked with him for a bit . Very very nice guy ! Between the views , the place in general and Jose’s hospitality we will definitely be back if ever in Maggie vally!! 100000 out of 10 all around amazing !!!

My family and I were in town for a graduation at WCU. We loved our stay here. The check in process was easy and there were clear instructions throughout the home. The space was clean and beautifully decorated. The beds and pillows were comfy and there were plenty of blankets as well as towels etc. There was even a full body massage chair for our use. Great place!!!

Loved our love stay here as it felt like you a living in Appalachian safari because lots of deer, mink, peacocks, rabbits, eagles and more visited the property regularly. The river and surroundings offer the feeling or remote tranquility but the super fast skyline internet and town 5 minute drive away mean you are still close to civilization.

Eric was a wonderful host. Directions were very clear and understanding. Although the thermostat is split , Eric was very understanding an adjusted as needed. Great location and get away spot for couples. Very quiet and secured . We will definitely come back!

This place is a great stay for anyone looking for a place centrally located in the Cashiers/Sapphire area. Easy and scenic walk around lake Fairfield. Great Mountain View from back patio. Easy access to Sapphire National Golf Course. The place is very spacious with room to spread out for the whole family and it is equipped very well. Roland is responsive and checked in on us periodically to make sure everything was well. I highly recommend staying here!

We stayed for four nights. The views from this home are more incredible than any picture could capture. We stay in many rental homes when we travel. This is the most well appointed kitchen we’ve ever used. Communication with the host was easy and rarely needed. Lots of great instructions on how to do things around the house. And the space was just simply beautifully decorated. I wanted to spend time with my family in a beautiful home with a breathtaking view. This home did just that! Thank you for sharing your home.

It was good overall but it would be way better after construction would be done and I do not recommend grandparents to go because of walking on the hills, but other than that everything was amazing!! Place was clean and tidy, had hood communication with Hollie and the scenery and weather really helped us made the trip better..

Julie’s Haven was stunning. My husband and I went for a much needed weekend away and the view is absolutely jaw dropping as soon as you walk in. It was the perfect amount of space with such thoughtful touches in every corner. Julie has really thought of EVERYTHING! She was so responsive with any question I had or concern. We are already planning next year’s trip up. So gorgeous and restful. We made a hike over to the view point and soaked that in and dreamed of having a view like that one day. Just book it. It is luxury in the mountains!

Nantahala Lake is now our favorite lake. It's absolutely stunning and worth a visit, and the mountains around it are majestic. The house is beautiful, modern, comfortable, and peaceful, with the best lake views. Make sure to rent a boat to explore! It was our favorite day. We decided that when we return to Lake Nanatahala, we will rent a boat for the entirety of our vacation. We are big cooks, and the kitchen was very well stocked. The grill was clean and ready to use. It was only two of us, but the house would be perfect for two couples with kids. We are so thankful Craig and his family share their little slice of heaven with others. We had a great stay.

Four Sisters on a Tennessee vacation! We cut off 75 north onto Hwy 441 and it brought us right to Applewood Tavern adjacent to our Villa complex!! Beautiful drive! The villa is in a perfect location! 5 minutes to everything, Walmart, restaurants and much more! Dollywood 12 minutes! The villa is furnished so pretty! You will love the decor! The kitchen is complete! Very clean and supplied with extra towels and linens! Patio and front porch so accommodating!! Ceiling fans in bedrooms were a plus!! Perfect location!!
