Smokey Ridge / Sauna - Arcade - Views / Gatlinburg

Wake up to panoramic Smoky Mountain views from your king loft suite, then unwind in a private infrared sauna, soak in a 5-person hot tub framed by a stunning plant wall or challenge the family to 2,000+ arcade games — all without leaving the cabin.

Set in the desirable Chalet Village area of Gatlinburg, TN, this genuine hand-hewn log cabin sits steps from Ober Mountain Park and 10 minutes from Great Smoky Mountains National Park — yet feels like a private mountain sanctuary once you arrive.

Other Things Good to Know

This is real bear country — you may spot one! If that concerns you, this may not be the right fit.

Mountain roads are paved but steep with switchbacks. A 4WD or AWD vehicle is recommended in winter conditions.

The cabin spans 3 levels with interior staircases. The main entry requires climbing 5 steps from the parking area.

Parking for up to 3 vehicles on premises. Street parking is not permitted.

The loft king suite is an open-concept space — no door or curtain separating it from the stairway below.

Whether you're watching the sunrise melt over the Smokies from the loft deck, competing for the high score in the arcade, sweating out the day in the sauna, or soaking under the stars in the hot tub — Alpine Retreat delivers the kind of mountain magic that keeps guests coming back.
