Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Wake up above the clouds at 3,200 ft, sip coffee while blue ridgelines light up with sunrise, then finish the evening in your own infrared sauna or star-soaked hot tub and marvel while thousands of Fireflies dance around. HIBERNATION STATION isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s a private mountain playground for families, friends, and the dogs that tag along.

The space
Spread out over two view-filled levels, our 3-bedroom log cabin was designed to keep everyone smiling no matter the weather. Crank up a playlist in the infrared sauna, challenge the kids to an air-hockey showdown, or curl up by the fireplace with a mug of cocoa and a classic movie on the 65" smart TV (Disney+ & Hulu included & YouTube TV so you can keep up to date with the FIFA World Cup). Oversized windows frame the Smokies so you never lose sight of why you came.

Arriving early in the day or leaving late? Ask us about a half day addon, if our calendar allows it. 🚗 4WD/AWD is recommended December–February due to possible icy conditions on our steep driveway. During the rest of the year, standard vehicles—including minivans—can comfortably access the cabin.

🎮Game & Wellness Zone
• Dedicated game room with 400+ arcade classics, retro console (40K+ games), air hockey table, wall-mounted Scrabble, karaoke mic, and a second 65" smart TV.
• Brand-new four-person infrared sauna—Bluetooth speakers let you bring the soundtrack.
• Six-person hot tub on the lower deck with unobstructed valley and sunset views.

🌲Outdoor Living
Two furnished decks double your square footage in good weather. Grill dinner on the BBQ, toast s’mores around the fire table, or simply sink into an Adirondack chair fireside and watch hawks ride the thermals over the Maggie Valley Country Club across the street or fireflies dance around. Stargazing now available with our recent Telescope addition. Enjoy life size outdoor games; Cornhole, Connect 4, Lawn darts and later bake a pie using our blackberries late summer.
