Also, even if you think you have your cabin location mapped out, don&#8217;t depend on your vehicle&#8217;s GPS system for directions &#8211; GPS is not completely reliable in these mountains.<\/p>\n<h3>Why stay in a luxury cabin in the Smoky Mountains?<\/h3>\n<p>We&#8217;re biased of course, but we think it beats a hotel anytime, especially with kids. The space and lifestyle of a cabin setting are the closest thing to a home away from home you can find. And while many cabins are grouped together, each one is oriented to its own special view, and your own hot tub on the deck is usually a pretty private world. And since almost every cabin will sleep more than two people, and has a spacious layout often on two stories, it&#8217;s very feasible to share a cabin between friends or two couples, and split the cost for a great bargain.<\/p>\n<h3>Where are the best cabins?<\/h3>\n<p>Where are the\u00a0 best cabins? That may be impossible to answer, since it depends what you value the most for your stay in the Smokies. Some people like cabins close to town, and we have several just outside the downtown areas of both Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, with some even in walking distance. Note that for most of the cabins a little ways out from town, walking on these winding mountain roads is not encouraged because of other vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to get a little farther out from the hub of activity, try the Wears Valley end of things. See our guide to this area in our post: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cabinsofthesmokymountains.com\/blog\/smoky-mountains\/wears-valley-quiet-side-smokies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wears Valley Cabins \u2013 on the Quiet Side of the Smokies<\/a>. And many cabins are in resort groupings, so take a look at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cabinsofthesmokymountains.com\/resorts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">resorts page<\/a> for a list of areas and cabins available.<\/p>\n<h3>Cabins With Swimming Pools<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cabinsofthesmokymountains.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/WateringHolePool.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-5438\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cabinsofthesmokymountains.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/WateringHolePool-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"WateringHolePool\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cabinsofthesmokymountains.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/WateringHolePool-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cabinsofthesmokymountains.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/WateringHolePool.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Many cabins in resorts have swimming pool access, and the listing page for each cabin will show this in the Amenities section.
