The Nest

This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cabin sleeps 4. It has amazing views of the mountains from the windows and balcony. There is a King size bed in the master bedroom upstairs with separated shower and toilet areas. There is a TV in this bedroom. Downstairs (main floor), there is a bedroom with a queen size bed, next to the full bathroom. The kitchen is fully furnished and there’s a dining table that seats 4. There’s a woodburning fireplace with a large TV above for hanging out and relaxing with the family while sitting on a large, comfortable couch. The hot tub is brand new and is located outside on a covered side porch (no view from it, but very secluded) to protect you from the rain. The back balcony has a bench to sit on while you overlook the beautiful, breathtaking Smoky Mountains while enjoying either your glass of wine at night or cup of coffee in the morning. There are 3 tall chairs and a table too so you can eat meals outside. This is a perfect place to do devotions while watching God’s beautiful creation. There are 12 acres that you can hike on and even a small outside chapel and gazebo to be used for an outside wedding (at an extra cost and it needs to be approved beforehand). You can follow the gravel road from The Nest up to the top – curve to the right – to find the gazebo, mountain view area and a bench swing that overlooks Pigeon Forge and the mountains behind it. There is a community Firepit behind Tanner Manor Lodge (#1231 Pine Mountain Way, the large brown cabin on the corner). Go behind the cabin and you will see 2 gravel paths, take the one to the left that leads up to the Firepit. There is a hose there to put out the fire after it has been used. If you go down the other gravel road, there’s a well house and on the other side of the well house is a big deck box with outside games (bocce ball, croquet and other games in the future) for your use. Just please put them back after you are finished using them. There is an EV charger at one of our cabins that is a short walk away. Be sure to bring your adapters if you have a Tesla, the connector is the J1772. Just let Kathryn know if you are going to need to use it while you are there so she can arrange it with the other guests. We have a washer & dryer, but NOT in the unit (there was not other choice on the Amenities list) outside of Tanner Manor Lodge that will be available for all of our guests who don’t have their own washers and dryers in their cabins. If there are clothes in the washer or dryer when you come to use it, please contact whoever’s name is on the dry erase board. There are bench swings around Tanner Manor Lodge, a grill behind it and oversized chess and checkers on the back porch. Feel free to hang out and play while you are waiting on your laundry to be done.

You will be sent the code to the door prior to arrival. You will have the entire cabin to yourself.
