Summer in the Smokies

Cabins in the quiet of the Smokies

Long green evenings, creek water, and late porch dinners. Hand-finished retreats owned by Joe & Kelly, with nothing at all on the schedule.

Still open this weekend

The collection

Every cabin, cared for personally

We own these cabins ourselves. The linens, the coffee, the fire pit chairs and the quirks of each porch are chosen by us, not by a rental company with a thousand doors.

Summit Cabin Rentals keeps everything spotless on the ground, so the only thing left for you to plan is how late to stay out on the deck.

The cabins

Many doors, many kinds of quiet

From a two-person hideaway to a lodge that sleeps twenty-two, each one photographed, furnished and looked after by us.

Where you are

Ridge lines, porch light, and no one else around

Every cabin sits inside the same twenty-mile stretch of the Smokies, close enough to town for dinner and far enough up the mountain that the night stays dark.

The area

National park on one side, main street on the other

Twenty minutes to the Smokies trailheads, ten to Pigeon Forge pancakes and the Gatlinburg strip. We keep a running list of the places we actually send friends to.

What's nearby

Why here

Small in number, high in care

01

Hot tubs & fire pits

Every cabin has a private hot tub and a place to build a fire when the valley fog rolls in.

02

Owner hosted

Joe & Kelly answer the messages themselves, and know every porch, trail and back road nearby.

03

Local hands

Housekeeping and maintenance are handled locally, so someone is always ten minutes away.

“We built these porches for slow mornings, and we still test every one of them ourselves.”
