The first step to planning a Smoky Mountain vacation is deciding where to stay. Cabins in the Smokies provide amazing benefits, including mountain views and extra privacy. However, you will discover there are thousands of cabins to choose from that are each unique. You may be wondering how to find the one that is just right for your group. Well, here are 4 things to look for when choosing your perfect Gatlinburg cabin:

1. Amount of Space Needed

Depending on how many people you are bringing along for the trip, you can choose the right size cabin accordingly. There are rentals of all sizes throughout Gatlinburg, ranging from 1 bedroom cabins for couples and families to multi-bedroom luxury cabins for larger groups. In addition to the number of bedrooms, you may want to look at the size of the living room, kitchen, outside deck, and the number of bathrooms to ensure everyone has the space they need. No matter how many people you plan on vacationing with, there is a cabin that is just the right size for everyone, and you will love being able to sleep under the same roof!

2. Location, Location, Location

Gatlinburg expands over more territory than some people realize. Therefore, you will want to pick a cabin that is close to the areas you want to visit. There are plenty of cabins that are located just minutes from downtown, where you will find dozens of amazing attractions and restaurants. If you prefer to stay in a more secluded area, you can find a cozy cabin that is tucked away in the mountain. These cabins are especially great for those who love to go hiking because they are located near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

3. Price Tag

One of the most important things to consider when choosing the perfect cabin in Gatlinburg is your budget. It is key to remember that there are cabins for every budget, so keep looking until you find the one that fits the price range you want. Also, remember to check out our Smoky Mountain cabin specials to get the best deal possible on your home away from home. If you are staying in a large group cabin, you can split the total cost of the cabin, which ends up being cheaper than everyone reserving their own lodging.

4. Amenities Included

Everyone desires different amenities when it comes to their Gatlinburg cabin. If you plan on spending most of your vacation relaxing in the cabin, you will want it to have a few added luxuries. When deciding what you want in your rental, there are a variety of things to choose from, including hot tubs, game rooms, home theaters, and even indoor pools! If you are just looking for something simple to sleep in, there are plenty of those available as well. The biggest perk of staying in a cabin in the Smokies is you will always have an amazing mountain view!
