Groundhog Heaven | Smoky Mountain Holiday

Description

Welcome to "Groundhog Heaven," where convenience, traditional log cabin charm, modern decor and amenities are combined into one AMAZING family friendly cabin! With 4BR (sleeps 11!), 2 large game rooms/theater room, and multiple outdoor decks, your family will have plenty of room to play and relax. Get a Hole in One, then soak in the outdoor hot tub, play a round of pool, games on the arcade, or wind down in the private master jacuzzi tub by the fireplace. This cabin has it all!

Our cabin is ONLY a 5-minute walk to the Parkway in Pigeon Forge and is ideal for families and small groups alike - so pack your bags -- the mountains are calling!!

★Living Room★
Featuring high vaulted ceilings for lots of light, a beautiful open floor plan, stacked-stone fireplace, large flat screen tv and comfortable leather furniture for the perfect hang out spot.
To take in the outdoors, simply walk out onto your deck and hang out with family and friends near the fireplace for those chilly nights.

★Kitchen & Dining★
Your kitchen is fully stocked with plenty of cookware, a crock pot, and morning necessities like a Keurig and coffee pot. The one-of-kind, hand-crafted, cedar dining table is perfect for those family meals, seating up to 10, plus additional seating at the high-top for 2 more.

★Outdoors★
A brand new, 9-hole putt-putt golf course is the perfect outdoor game for the whole family. Conveniently located in the yard, featuring a “Plinko” hole and golf clubs of all sizes, everyone can compete to see who will get the first Hole in One! There won’t be lines to wait for a turn because the mini golf is private access only to Groundhog Heaven guests and the guests next door at Uncle Buck’s Cabin. But that's not all – we've also added a cornhole set for even more gaming excitement. The yard is so large, there’s still plenty of space to play other fun family games. The covered decks are the perfect hang out spot featuring a relaxing hot tub, charcoal grill and an outdoor gas fireplace.
Getting to Groundhog Heaven Cabin is a breeze, it’s a 2 min drive from “The Island'' on a nice cul-de-sac street yet still far away from the hustle and bustle. And there is plenty of parking for 3 cars on our paved driveway.

★2 Game Rooms & Theater Room★
Every cabin needs a fun Game Room, or how about two!?! The moment you step into Groundhog Heaven, you’ll be in our cabin’s first hang out area, featuring a large table for card games, Jenga or watch a movie from our oversized chairs on the large flat screen TV. On the 3rd floor, we have our second game room with a full-size pool table, Multicade with 60 of your favorite classic arcade games, and another flat screen TV. There’s plenty of space for everyone to hang out and make memories!

★Bedrooms★
Groundhog Heaven has the perfect mountain modern, master ensuite with a plush king-size bed, flat screen TV, full bath, and a beautiful double-sided, stacked-stone gas fireplace which you can enjoy from the bed or in your private jacuzzi tub. Other guests can enjoy some privacy too, our cabin has 2 additional King bedrooms with their own private full bathrooms. And for the littles or solo guests, we have a beautiful, vaulted ceiling bunk room with one twin-over-twin bunk bed and one twin bed. If you need more space, guests can also take advantage of our new, comfortable pullout sofa.

*** If you are looking for even more space, we have an equally amazing cabin next door, Uncle Buck’s, contact us if you’d like to book both cabins. View Uncle Buck’s here: www.airbnb .com/rooms/50984242***

Great family time

We had the best time staying at this cabin. There was truly something for everyone regardless of the weather. The unit located in a central spot, so took us very little time to get to Dollywood, Publix or dining. While the weather was great, the kids enjoyed playing putt putt, cornhole and catch in the yard. While it rained the next day, the hot tub, movie theatre, pool and games were on the agenda. The unit was spacious and could easily accommodate our family. We most definitely will be back our next time in Pigeon Forge!

Great weekend for my family

We rented this cabin for my daughter's birthday and a family reunion, we all had a great time, the jacuzzi was the best, highly recommended for the price we got.

Great trip!

Property was great! Excellent location and the host was wonderful! Communication was beyond helpful and very easy to get with. Very neat and clean and that is not always easy to find! Looking forward to a return trip with the whole family next time. Great escape!!

Great Cabin!

This cabin is great! The best part was the location for us. We were looking for something that didn’t have a long steep drive up to the cabin & it’s only minutes to the parkway where all the attractions are. Having putt putt golf right outside the door was an added bonus. We are already looking at booking this cabin or the one next door (also owned by the same person) again for our next family getaway. Jason was very responsive & helpful with anything we needed both before & during the stay.

First time in Tennessee

This cabin was perfect. We traveled with 5 adults and 5 children (ages 5 months-12 years old). When we arrived, the cabin was immaculate. There was plently of space (3 floors), and the children had their own floor (top floor). We loved the mini golf course outside and had no issues with availability despite sharing with the neighboring cabin. The cabin had everything we needed including a pack and play and high chair. There were plenty of dishes and pots to use in the kitchen. The beds were all very comfortable (including the sofa bed) and the movie theater chairs were awesome. The host was great and easy to communicate with. The cabin was close to everything. It was our first time traveling to Tennessee, and I wasnt aware how busy it gets during spring break. There were people everywhere. We could not find parking when visiting the mountains, but we made the best of it. Just be aware when traveling in March, its busy. There is plenty to do within 5 minutes of the cabin. We were never bored. This was a great trip. We couldnt have asked for better housing for our spring break vacation, and we will return.

Heya Ashley! Thanks so much for your awesome review! I'm thrilled to hear that the cabin was perfect for your group and that everyone had a great time, from the adults to the kiddos. It's fantastic that you found the space comfortable and well-equipped, and that the mini golf was a hit! I'm glad the location worked out well for you too, despite the busy spring break crowds. Thanks for choosing our cabin for your vacation, and we can't wait to welcome you back again soon!
