About this property

Pet-Friendly Hilltop Cabin, Outdoor/ + Indoor Fireplace, Hot Tub

If you are planning a getaway with several couples or families, Lasting Impressions is just what you’re looking for.

Twelve people can vacation here in comfort and style. In addition to three luxurious primary bedrooms, there is a queen-size sleeper sofa in the great room and two queen-size sleeper sofas in the lower-level family room. Each bedroom is appointed with your comfort in mind and includes a king-size bed, a 43-inch 4K Smart TV, an extra mirror, access to the deck and an adjoining spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower. The lower-level bathroom has a bathtub/shower combination. The warm interior décor was thoughtfully selected for a “beary” rustic yet comfortable feel.

Take a drive around the nearby Roaring Forks Motor Nature trail. When you return from a day of hiking or biking the trails of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, skiing, snowboarding or tubing at Ober Gatlinburg Ski Area and Amusement Park or reaching new heights at Anakeesta Theme Park, a soak in the large hot tub on the main level deck may be just what you need. Relax and take in the surrounding peaceful natural setting and winter mountain views. There are rocking chairs and an outdoor gas fireplace to enjoy too.

Watch TV by the gas fireplace in the open, spacious great room, and join in on the conversation while playing games at the large dining table or surfing the web at the breakfast bar. Enjoy the state-of-the-art electronics in the great room: 55-inch 4K Smart TV, Alexa for on-demand music, weather and sports, stream with 100GB high-speed internet or watch movies using the DVD/Blu-Ray player.

With numerous restaurants just minutes away, you could certainly dine out for all your meals. Once you see the spacious well-equipped kitchen, you might want to shop at the nearby grocery store and have a home cooked meal. You will have small kitchen appliances, bakeware, cookware and tableware at your disposal with plenty of counter space to work on. The main level also has a full-size washer and dryer for your convenience.

After dinner, you can go upstairs to the loft and shoot some pool at the full-size billiard table or go downstairs to the family room where there are several seating areas and plenty of space to hang out, play cards or watch a movie on the 70-inch 4K Smart TV. You can relax by the gas fireplace inside or venture outside and enjoy watching nature in a rocking chair on the lower-level deck.

If you are planning for a larger group or a family gathering, consider renting the adjacent cabin, Back to Nature, along with Lasting Impressions! There is a shared driveway with ample parking. New construction was completed in 2019.

With a convenient location, a beautiful natural setting and lots of amenities, you will have Lasting Impressions! The cabin is pet friendly. Consider making memories of your Smoky Mountain adventure at Lasting Impressions!

*Please Note: Due to nearby construction, you will encounter various levels of noise during the day.

Outstanding views!

We were above the clouds, with awesome views of the entire city. At night from the decks and hot tub the whole city was lit up, it looked amazing. We had lots of room to spread out, and every bedroom has those great views. Well stocked kitchen, we like to cook, and the grocery is only a 10 minute drive. It was the best of both...Mountain cabin with lofty views, and a 5 minute drive to the city and about a 20 minute drive to Pigeon Forge. There were only 3 of us, but it could comfortably accommodate 3 families with their children. Only recommendation is to have the gas on the fireplaces turned up for more ambiance and some heat.

Great location with beautiful views

Very happy with our stay at Lasting Impressions. The bathrooms were very clean, but the dining area kitchen was still sticky and multiple plates/glasses/mugs were dirty in the cabinets.Water pressure was a bit lower than we prefer, but plenty of hot water for four adults.Fire in both fireplaces was too low to generate any heat.Window treatments on upper windows would be nice - the sun was extremely bright and we couldn't really use the first floor during the late afternoons until the sun set.

Fall Break Stay

The location of the cabin and cabin itself were fantastic! We had bears come through the property and eat in the trees across the street every day! We had a few issues that came up, but maintenance came out same day to fix. We would definitely recommend this cabin!

Nice rental and amenities...great view!!!

We rent frequently in Gatlinburg and always look for something different. Found this cabin and it was reasonably priced (hard to find these days). We had never stayed on the Anakeesta side of the city. The road to the cabin is narrow and steep (not unfamiliar for us but could be an issue for some). At some points, the road is wide enough for one car only. But, the location is right off the main road and the view is great! There was lots of construction going on around the cabin with roads blockages but, once that's compete, the area will be much better. The cabin itself is as advertised...spacious, well-appointed and with good amenities (hot tub, pool table, tv room). We made dinner and only thing missing was oven mitts. They give you one kitten towel so I used that but still burned my arm on the oven since the towel didn't protect against heat. Please add a few oven mitts AND more kitchen towels! Hot tub needed temp increased but was nice and hot within a couple hours and the view from here was perfect! Really liked the deck seating area. Really nice having bedrooms with en suite bathrooms...beds were decently comfortable but pillows were very thin (not unusual in a rental) so we used extras. Fireplace was nice but it doesn't generate heat and is more aesthetic. Still nice though. Parking for two cars (easily) but no more esp if the house on other side of driveway has people renting. Grill is small, charcoal outside in driveway...looked bit rusty so we chose to not grill.

Close to everything and yet faraway

This was a great location! We loved the cabin and everything it had to offer. The cabin was about 5 minutes from Gatlinburg and 15 from the national park. But it also felt that it was faraway from everything. Like the reviews prior, we saw bears everyday! The rooms were comfortable and the entertainment was great too. My only suggestion would be have some puzzles or games. They will go a long way for families that want to spend time together.

Wonderful and spacious cabin!

We absolutely loved this cabin! We loved rocking in the chairs on the main level deck and watching the bears!!! It had plenty of room for 3 adult couples to stay. The kitchen was fully stocked for any of our needs. There were plenty of towels. The only slight issue we did run into was our code to get in the door didn’t work. We called the office and they did quickly get us a code that worked. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone!

Hilltop view

We had a great stay at Lasting Impressions. The home is clean and spacious with all the basic dishes etc that you will need. You are provided with a few supplies of necessities like toilet paper, small dish and hand soap as well as Paper towels . However the pillows were awful...thin and flat. So if thats important take your own. You will also need to bring any essential condiments ( salt/pepper ) etc. Foil , oven mitts to name a few . There is a small grill outside. We saw several bears in the driveway and in the surrounding area and found bells very useful for taking the dogs out. Overall we were very happy and would definitely stay again.

Bears oh my

The property was really nice. Beds were comfortable and clean. All appliances that you would need for a short stay. The only issue we had while we were there is washer and dryer don't work well at all. Very old. All appliances should get an upgrade for the price you pay to stay there. But overall it was nice.

Bears galore

Overall it was a good cabin and we enjoyed our stay. We saw bears three days in a row and two in the drive way(make sure to lock your cars and keep no food inside. We did this but a bear still was curious about my car and scratched it up) Just a few things i wish we knew to bring with us-Make sure to bring your own oven mit, toilet paper(only two per bathroom provided) paper towels(only one provided) trash bags(only two provided). The downstairs tub didn’t drain quick enough so you shower in your own soap etc, when sleeping down stairs you hear every foot step and the people above you in the bedroom, and both couches in the living room each have a seat that is broke so you sink to one side. Very steep driveway and roads are sketchy getting to the cabin so make sure you have a car that can take that on. Overall like i said it was a very clean cabin and nice just wish we knew to bring the extra things and some of the cabin just needs fixing.

Family vacation with adult children and grandbabies

Lasting Impressions cabin is perfect for multiple families. Cabin was very clean and furnished with 3 king size beds and pullout sofas. We had 11 in our party and had more than enough room. Saw 4 bear cubs after only being there for a short time. The next day we saw a mama bear and 4 newly born cubs. The grandkids were amazed. Close to downtown Gatlinburg and all the attractions. Jackson Mountain Homes was a pleasure to work with. They are very accommodating and polite. Always available if you have a question or concern. Highly recommend renting from them. We will definitely be returning for other family vacations.

The Perfect Cabin

We were blown away with this cabin! It was spacious and clean and had tons of natural light and high ceilings. Loved the fireplaces and sitting areas for playing games! The views were amazing. The sunsets and the lights on the mountain at night are breathtaking. Tons of bear activity!! We saw 5 bears. One morning they were literally in the drive way. The drive was a little scary because it’s very winding and steep. But we wouldn’t have had those great views or we didn’t make it to the top! Downtown is literally at the bottom of the mountain. Could have asked for a better location! Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Great cabin in a great location!

Great cabin with a lot of amenities and space! All construction was of top caliber. Management company was very responsive when i had a question. The only negative is that the cabin was not provided with many paper products. We only had one paper towel roll, one toilet paper per bathroom, and only two kitchen trash bags. not nearly enough for 10 people so we had to make a run on our vacation to the grocery store to purchase these items.

Beautiful cabin

Beautiful cabin! However I can tell no one ever stays on third floor. Dust on walls behind headboard and on headboard. Kitchen looked like they cleaned it but food food still around sink n floor. All in all great cabin though. We brought our own cleaning stuff too so it was easy fix. We would stay again. Make sure u have 4x4 lots of roads with inclines. Driveway to cabin is very steep incline thought stuff was going to fall out of truck lol would like to see it in the summer when trees don’t look so dead.

LOVED IT

My entire family loved our stay so much, that if work (and lack of milk for the baby) weren’t an issue, we would have tried to extend our stay. We had five adults, a two year old, and a nine month old, and I don’t think a single person had any problems at all. We are all keeping this link for future trips.
