Dew South

Dew South really does have something for everyone. The two-bedroom log cabin, which can sleep up to eight people—and your four-legged best friend too!—includes an outdoor hot tub, an indoor jetted tub, a foosball table, an Xbox, a multi-game arcade, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and a huge porch. One thing’s for sure: When you stay here, you’ll never be bored!

Inside and out, Dew South looks exactly as you’d want a cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains to look. Settle into the rockers on the wraparound covered porch, look out over the treetops and you’ll immediately feel relaxed and reinvigorated. Take advantage of the view and the fresh mountain air by dining on the porch too, at the round wood table. And to truly immerse yourself in nature’s beauty, revel in the singing of the birds and the warmth of the sun while soaking in the porch’s hot tub—it doesn’t get better than this!

Inside, the wood-planked floor, walls, and vaulted ceiling gain extra luster from the sunshine streaming in through the large windows and, in winter, from the warm glow of the gas fireplace. The living area’s seating is plush and well cushioned: Stretch out with a book, or gather with friends and family to watch a movie on the flat-panel TV.

Another inviting gathering spot is the farmhouse dining table, which seats six. It’s located right beside the kitchen, so you can keep the cook company—or if you’re the one cooking, you can keep an eye on the kids in the living area, thanks to the open floor plan. Fully outfitted with appliances, gadgets, pots, pans, and tableware, the kitchen can accommodate just about all your culinary efforts, no matter how elaborate. There’s a dishwasher too, because nobody wants to scrub plates while on vacation.

Dew South makes a dreamy honeymoon cabin, not only because of the privacy and beauty of its environs but also thanks to its spacious bedroom. There’s a king-size bed, of course, along with a private bathroom and a large flat-panel TV. Best of all is the jetted tub. A long, steamy soak is sure to put you in the mood for romance…or at the very least, soothe your tired muscles after a day of hiking, fishing, skiing, or biking.

If you’re vacationing with kids, chances are they’ll spend most of their time upstairs, in the loft bedroom. Of course, you might be there right alongside them! When you’re not playing foosball, you can challenge the others to one of the 60-plus games on the arcade or play on the Xbox; along with 14 games, it has access to Xbox Live. Or, you can stretch out on the game room’s sofa and watch your favorite cable programs on the flat-panel TV, or get nice and comfy on one of the beanbag chairs with your tablet or a book.

The loft bedroom can sleep up to four guests with a set of bunk beds and a sofa that opens into a queen-size bed—you know the kids will be over the moon at the prospect of sleeping up here! There’s a full bathroom upstairs as well. And if you have additional overnight guests, the living room sofa downstairs also converts to a bed for two.

If you like to fish, you’re in luck: When you stay at Dew South, you have access to the community fishing pond. If you’d rather shop or gallery-hop, you’re in luck too, because the cabin is just minutes from the Gatlinburg Arts and Crafts Loop, an eight-mile trail of studios, galleries, and crafts shops. And no matter what your interests, you’ll love being less than 15 minutes from downtown Gatlinburg, with its restaurants and attractions ranging from an aquarium to mini golf.

See what we mean when we say you’ll never be bored at Dew South? There’s so much to see in the immediate vicinity and so much to do right in the cabin! So book your stay today, and get ready for your best vacation yet.
