The Moonshine: Private Wooded Cabin, Hot Tub & 3 Mi to Dollywood

Near the action, away from the noise. The Moonshine is a private wooded cabin just 3 miles from Dollywood and minutes from Pigeon Forge. It sleeps four with a king bedroom, open king loft, and two full baths. Relax in the private hot tub, warm up by the gas fireplace, cook in the full kitchen, or spend the evening in the rocking chairs on the wraparound porch. Professionally managed by SmartStay Hospitality with local support and hotel-grade cleaning.


The Moonshine gives you the peaceful cabin experience people come to the Smokies for—without placing you far from everything you came to enjoy.

Surrounded by trees in a quiet Sevierville setting, this approximately 1,000-square-foot cabin is designed for couples, small families, and groups of up to four guests. Spend the day exploring Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and the Great Smoky Mountains, then return to your own private retreat away from the crowds.

The main level features an open living area with comfortable seating, large windows, a gas fireplace, and a television. The connected kitchen and dining area make it easy to prepare breakfast before heading out or enjoy dinner together after a full day of adventures.
