About this property

✨ Chesnut Ridge, Beautiful Mountain Cabin in the Best Location 🏅

Chestnut Ridge is a new All-Wood spacious 1900sqft (2/2+loft) Cabin. Centrally located between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge "close to everything." Enjoy a 500sqft deck, wood burning fireplace and hot tub. Easy access and ample parking for up to 4 cars. Ideal for One to Two families (2 adult couples with up to four children) and perfect for Honeymooners. Minimum rental age of 25 strictly enforced; I.D. Required/verified at check in with our agent. Strict no pet policy. (also see our other cabins: Woodlands ID#7949921, and Pinecrest ID#9462008, Sunset ID# 2495242, Sunrise ID# 2495574). These are our personal cabins and rest assured you are dealing directly with the owners. We are a call or text away, which is not always the case with 2nd and 3rd party Rental/Management companies.

This is a new cabin that was completed on 21 Nov 2018. Chestnut Ridge is one of 5 family owned cabins we've built on the mountain and have decided to share on the rental market for all to enjoy.

Based on our own rental experiences, we’re including all the best things we liked in other cabins and have designed Chestnut Ridge to be the kind of mountain getaway most people envision when thinking of the Smokey Mountains. Chestnut Ridge is located in the most sought after area for Cabin Rentals in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge known as: Chalet Village North on Ski Mountain which is less than 10 minute drive down the mountain to center of town. With 3/4 of an acre of land you’ll enjoy the space without feeling isolated from civilization. The cabin is up on the mountain with a Northern view and descending wooded slopes. The cabin has a fully paved drive way with ample parking for 2-4 cars. Both king bedrooms are set up to accommodate adult couples, with a full bathroom on each floor (plus a 1/2 bath on the main floor), a large loft, large separate and fully equipped kitchen and dining area which is not in the living room, impressive great room with vaulted ceiling and large windows, and a fabulous 8 ft wide deck that spans the width of the cabin for you to enjoy year round; you’ll love having your morning coffee or end of the day glass of wine out on this deck. All new appliances black/stainless, central AC/Heat, a hard to find Wood Burning fire place (propane or electric just doesn't compare), full size washer/dryer and dishwasher. The hot tub is located in a standalone covered gazebo in a private setting (this was intentional and you’ll appreciate not having the motor reverberate throughout the cabin at night). The master bedroom is on the main floor with a king size bed and the the 2nd master bedroom is upstairs with a king size bed. The large loft has two sets of Bunk beds (sleeps 4), and regulation Foosball table. There are 3 flat screen televisions in the bedrooms and above the fire place. You’ll be able to stay connected via a complimentary WiFi signal (hopefully you won't be working too much while on vacation). There is also an out door "Pilot Rock" park style charcoal grill if you desire to grill out side. There are numerous restaurants in the area and Uber drivers and Taxis are normally available if you prefer not to drive. Or if you prefer to stay in and utilize the fully equipped kitchen, you can pick up groceries in town. Our guests have access to all three club houses and swimming pools located in Chalet Village (see next to last picture).

We believe Chestnut Ridge is the kind of place you’ll want to return to year after year and think of as your own “home away”. Please feel free to ask us anything, we're happy to help you plan as best we can. You can also send us email in Spanish or French.
Note: Owners will only respond to non emergency messages and calls between 8am-9pm EST. Max Occupancy policy of no more than 8 adults/children for this cabin at any given time (inclusive of any visiting guests). 100% of the cleaning fee goes to a local cleaning lady who does a great job.

Very beautiful!

The cabin was lovely, and it was easy to find. It was very clean and had great decor; the owners were responsive. A pack of bears must live nearby because we saw them in the driveway every day we were there, so keep an eye out!

Beautiful home made for relaxation

We spent our Fall Break at this beautiful home. From the start, Miguel and Alyson, communicated with us with all the details we needed for our stay. The house was clean and welcoming. We were given lots of tips on things to do and places to eat. One day, we had a nice soak in the hot tub as two bears made their way up the driveway and into the woods. The fireplace was perfect for the crisp fall days. My kids had a great time and enjoyed hanging out at the house. The view is beautiful and the location of the house is perfect between Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.

Beautiful Cabin

Wonderful stay! Had a great time in Gatlinburg area for my daughters gymnastics meet and the house was perfect for my family of 5 and my parents also. The driveway is steep but makes for beautiful views from the deck. The fooseball table was a hit with the kids as well as the 4 day monopoly game we kept going all weekend! The kitchen was furnished with everything we needed, the living room was comfortable for everyone to watch TV. Beautifully decorated rooms and as a veteran family loved the American theme to it as well. Would definitely stay again if the opportunity arises!

Beautiful cabin!

The weather turned off a bit cool and rainy, so we spent a bit more time inside than we had anticipated. We were glad to have such a nice and cozy retreat! The cabin is well stocked and very clean and our family of 4 had more than enough room to spread out. Communication with the owners is top notch. Would stay again!

Beautiful Cabin and Location

Overall cabin was well kept, well maintained, comfortable, and very clean. Our family of 3 generations had a great time at the cabin during a week's stay. Saw a family of bears on a couple of days. Communication with owners was excellent. Had no issues during our stay, only some construction noises at times since this area has some homes under construction, but that is outside the control of the owners, and Gatlinburg is a developing area. Highly recommend staying here!

Fantastic Cabin

We absolutely loved every single thing about Chestnut Ridge. It was spotless, beautifully decorated for the Holidays with Christmas tree, other festive décor and outside lights. It was absolutely beautiful. The furniture was gorgeous. The beds were nice and big and comfortable. Blackout blinds were the chef's kiss. Everything was labeled so you knew exactly what switch operated what lights. We couldn't have picked a better cabin if we built it ourselves. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us. We will be back. Angel and Anthony

Simply Wonderful!

We really enjoyed a quick getaway to this beautiful cabin. First it was very clean!!!! The decor was so cute and views were amazing. The driveway was pretty intimidating, but we got use to it. The kids loved the hot tub. I will say the water had a strong smell, the temp was just warm adm it is a little on the small side for adults. The owners were amazing and responsive. I did say anything about hot tub, because it was not our focus, but I know they would have responded right away. The only suggestion would be to put together a binder with information of area, menus or places that deliver and some things to do. I always enjoy this at other properties to become familiar with the area. I would 100% recommend this property and I hope to be back soon!

Truly amazing cabin in the Smokies !!!!!

Our Family has been coming to the Smokies for over 25 years, and staying in the Gatlinburg Cabins. When we got news that there were forest fires in Gatlinburg and it destroyed the majority of the cabins we were devastated. We returned not knowing what to expect. Let me tell you it was so refreshing when we arrived to "Chestnut Ridge". The owners rebuilt the cabin and maintained that "smokey Mountain" atmosphere. They truly paid special attention to detail and maintained every aspect to ensure that their guest could enjoy what I have been experiencing for like I mentioned, for over 25 + years, of that "Mountain Get-A-Away Ambiance". Once you walk in through their front door the cabin envelops you and accepts you as it's guest an makes you feel at home. The owners were only a text away and made all the preparations for the arrival and the departure a no brainer, ( super simple). excellent travel experience, will definitely be returning , 5 stars and special Kudos to both Husband & wife on their efforts to their guests.

Perfect!!

The pictures looked beautiful but its even better in person! We had a wonderful time and the owners were soooo amazing and helpful. I am super picky and this cabin was spotless and spacious. Everything was very well thought out. The driveway was pretty steep but that is the norm for all of the mountain homes. If you are looking for an amazing vacation, don't waste your time looking for any other cabin. Book this one and you will be very, very happy!! We can't thank you enough for this wonderful vacation!! Our family of 6 had more than enough room and we didn't want to leave!!!!! As far as local things that we loved, I have some suggestions. The pirate show in Pigeon Forge was absolutely incredible for any age. It is a dinner show and the food was delicious. The pirate show is a must do. We hiked at Laurel Falls and it was a beautiful hike and very doable for our little family. We went to the comedy barn and had lots of laughs. Wasn't sure if it would be corny or not but it was actually super fun. If you are wanting to go shopping, go to the island at pigeon forge. My kids age 10 and 12 did a ropes course there and that was awesome. The ferris wheel at the island is totally worth it for all ages. The Ripleys aquarium was really cool and you can see some really unique creatures there. My family's favorite restaurant was the Frizzle Chicken in Pigeon Forge. Its open for breakfast and its a riot. There are a bunch of singing chickens and my kids would probably go there every day if they could. With this rental, you have free access to 3 pools. We had so much fun going to the pools and playing tennis and hanging out. If you want to order pizza, order from ski mountain pizza. Best pizza ever and they deliver. In a nutshell, we are so lucky to have gotten the opportunity to stay here and will always cherish our memories here. Thank you for letting us stay at this little slice of heaven!

About the host

Hosted by Miguel and Alyson

Host profile image
Hi guests, we look forward to having you stay at one of our cabins. In 2017 we purchased our first lot and built the kind of true Mountain Cabin we’ve always dreamed of. Since then we’ve built 6 more cabins with the last two completed in May of 2022. In 2020 we opened our Short Term Rental Company "Spindala Cabins" which we run as a couple. It has become a truly accidental business that will be our 3rd chapter in life (don’t think we’re the types to ever completely retire). It is really enjoyable and 99.99% of our guests are truly terrific. There’s a lot of satisfaction ensuring families have a wonderful rental experience when visiting the Smoky Mountains. Don’t hesitate to ask us anything even if you don’t book with us, we understand many of you may not be familiar with the area. Sincerely, Miguel and Alyson
