About the host

Hosted by Jeannette

Host profile image
Welcome to our cabin- High Expectations. We are happy to be able to share our personal getaway with all our guests. We are committed owners and for us, every detail, maintenance, and general care of our property is top priority.
We travel frequently from our home to visit the beauty and tranquility of our cabin backyard- the Smoky Mountains. We love to hike and immerse ourselves in the Park trails for that unique mountain experience and know that at the end of the day our restful, tranquil getaway awaits us. This is our home away from home.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I have always enjoyed the outdoors and we wanted a special place that would give us the true spirit of the Mountains- a tranquil setting that would allow us time to unwind. We found this cabin with its Spellbound Setting- nestled among the trees facing Mt. Leconte and its Mountain Ranges. We have visited many National parks and we have never seen views where the Mountains were literally at your doorstep! But the beauty of it all is that it is also conveniently located near all the attractions of a tourist destination like Gatlinburg and only a few minutes from the Smoky Mountain National Park. We feel so lucky to have found our little piece of heaven- we know you will find it memorable too.

What makes this property unique

Incredible views and the perfect location- away from it all and yet within 5-6 miles to all the area attractions- you get the best of both worlds. This combination of convenience to area attractions, easy access and breathtaking scenery is a rare find and one of the unique benefits of High Expectations!
This location is a great launching point to nearby area attractions such as Dollywood and Pigeon Forge, the Golf Course, White Water Rafting, Zip Lining, the National Park, and the city of Gatlinburg making this a Great Getaway for families and/or couples. The cabin is easily accessible with level parking which is very hard to find in many of these mountain cabins. Within two steps you are on the main floor of the cabin and so, it is very convenient for Grandparents or small children.
As fellow Vacation Rental travelers, we understand the importance of a home away from home. We have taken every opportunity to add not only comfortable furnishings but all the small touches that makes your stay impressively comfortable- well stocked kitchen (yes including good knives), plenty of hooks to hang towels and clothes, unique decor that creates a rustic mountain ambiance, comfy throws, ironing boards, hair dryers and the list goes on!
We are confident you will find this to be one of a kind mountain experience!
