A visit to Gatlinburg is all about the mountain experience. Unlike other cabins, our view of the mountain range and valley is unobstructed during all seasons. While the view is magnificent during the day, at night it becomes positively magical as cabin and downtown lights twinkle throughout the valley. We've designed our outdoor deck area to provide the amenities that will quickly melt away any stress you've brought with you. Start off the morning enjoying your coffee on the porch marveling at the most stunning sunrise. Our outside dining makes even the basic meal enjoyable as you dine with the mountains as your backdrop. At night slip into the hot tub and star gaze or enjoy the sounds of nature.
Ridgewood Retreat consists of 3 spacious suites, full bathrooms in each suite, and another half bath on the upstairs floor. The efficient split floor plan has a large kitchen, living, and dining area on the main (upstairs) floor with one suite and one half bath; and full game room, one king suite and a two queen bunk suite on the lower level. Both floors have covered decks with a different view for everybody's preference! Outdoor seating and relaxing is offered throughout each deck including a hot tub to soak in the most panoramic views of the mountain range, outdoor dining table, and lounge chairs. Parking is available for up to three cars.
As you enter the cabin, you'll be struck by the beauty of the main floor entertaining area. Furnishings of the cabin are comfortable and accommodating for a party of eight. Wood floors and ceilings throughout the cabin set the tone for your relaxing retreat. Show off your culinary skills in our gourmet kitchen with new appliances, beautiful countertops, and fully-stocked cupboards. Full laundry can be found in the butlers pantry right off from the kitchen. If you're a grill master we haven't forgotten you. Our charcoal grill is waiting to be fired up to prepare your steaks, burgers, and chicken. Enjoy that meal with a glass of wine outdoors on the spacious and open balcony.
Downstairs you'll find an open game room, where the competitive juices start flowing across games of pool, arcade game, and plenty of classic table-top board games. The game room also includes comfortable seating for reading, a flat screen TV, and access to a covered deck and hot tub.
Our 2,600 square foot cabin comfortably accommodates groups of 1–8 guests and provides vacation amenities throughout. Each bedroom is beautifully appointed with a flat screen TV, luxury linens, and sufficient pillows important for a good night’s sleep. For our guest who must stay connected we offer wireless internet and cable TV through YouTube TV.
Just down the street, our guests have access to all three Chalet Village Clubhouses that feature large swimming pools, tennis courts, a gym, shuffleboard, game rooms, and much more! Pools remain open from Memorial Day through Labor Day each season.
