-Pet Friendly (2 dog maximum)
-Indoor Saltwater Pool

-Location: only minutes to Gatlinburg city center, GSMNP at Roaring Fork and the Parkway, or head east 3.5 miles to Rocky Top Sports World.

When it comes to year-round swimming, Poolin Around ain’t foolin’ around! Combining luxury with rustic charm, this one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bathrom cabin in the mountains sleeps four, has spectacular mountain views and – best of all – boasts an indoor saltwater pool and hot tub.

Poolin Around’s large windows and skylights let you revel in outstanding views of the Great Smoky Mountains, even as you’re lounging on the leather sofa watching a movie or curled up in the leather armchair with a book by the fireplace. The comfortable couch, by the way, converts into a queen-size bed, so that Poolin Around can sleep up to four people. A large flat-screen cable TV with DVD player and Blu-Ray is suspended above the gas fireplace in a gorgeous stone hearth, while a foosball table is conveniently located nearby if you’re up for some friendly competition.

The famous Greenbriar restaurant is just a short walk away, but if you don’t want to eat out you can settle in at the cozy dining table, which seats four. Stylishly outfitted with stainless-steel appliances (both large and small) and granite countertops, the kitchen is fully equipped with pots, pans, tableware and utensils so you can prepare anything from cocktails or a gourmet feast, to your morning cup of coffee with ease.

A good night’s sleep is key to getting the most out of any vacation, and Poolin Around’s roomy bedroom is furnished with that in mind. Perfectly made up with extra bedding at the ready, this spacious room is outfitted with a sumptuous king-size bed and two nightstands with reading lamps. Prop yourself up against the pillows and read, surf the web via the free Wi-Fi or, if you’re feeling wakeful, flip on the large, flat-screen cable TV and catch up on your favorite shows.

Just off the bedroom, Poolin Around’s primary bath, well supplied with fresh towels, is ready if your first order of business is a shower to wash off the travel dust. And what a shower it is! The beautiful tiled, glassed-in shower stall has dual shower heads, and is so roomy you’ll be tempted to linger under the soothing steam. Even the well-lit vanity is extra-roomy! With a super-long counter, there’s plenty of space for all your toiletries (your partner’s, too). The cabin also hosts a half-bath for extra convenience as well as a stacking washer and dryer to keep your wardrobe fresh.

The star of Poolin Around, however, is definitely the indoor heated saltwater pool on the lower level. Go ahead double the entertainment – an enormous, 85 inch TV lets you watch a flick while you lounge in the water. And this pool is open all year – just close the huge bay door to keep out the chill. You’ll love having the luxury of your own private pool to retreat to whenever you like, any time of year! During the warmer months, open the bay door to the outside for easy access to a gas fire pit, Adirondack chairs and charcoal grill. There’s also a hot tub with room for your whole group…for a truly magical experience, soak among the steamy bubbles in the evening as owls hoot and whip-poor-wills trill beneath a canopy of stars.

With everything Poolin Around has to offer, you may never want to leave! But if you don’t, you’ll miss all the fun of Dollywood, Gatlinburg Golf Course, Parrot Mountain and Gardens, the Titanic Museum, shops and dinner theaters that are mere minutes away. Not to mention all the activities the Great Smoky Mountains have to offer outdoor adventurers, from skiing to hiking.

So stop foolin’ around and book your best vacation yet at Poolin Around today!

Relaxing getaway

This was a last minute get away for my husband and I. Time to relax after the crazy holidays. We were excited about having a private indoor pool and a hot tub. Wow! we really enjoyed both areas. Watched football on the theater while relaxing in the pool! VERY clean and spacious, beautiful surroundings!

Stay was even better than expected

The cabin was wonderful! Awesome location. Very clean. Hot tub and fire pit outside, heated pool inside. We did see a bear the first morning, which was exciting. We were wary of the policy of sending a picture of myself holding my drivers license but we did and everything seems to be fine. We would definitely stay again!

Amazing stay!

Poolin’ Around is a wonderful place to stay! It’s a perfect getaway for honeymoons, a romantic getaway, or just getting out of town for a few days. Super clean, gorgeous views of the mountains from the front porch and privacy in the backyard. Will definitely stay here again, absolutely recommend to couples, small families, or friends who need a cute cabin getaway!

Perfect Location

Great cabin and the pool was nice, we didnt get in the hot tub but it was easily accessible right outside the pool room. It snowed while we were there and we had planned on being snowed in for a day or 2 but honestly, Gatlinburg Street crew kept the road to our cabin completed clear the whole time.Pretty sure city works is at the bottom of the hill. The porch is nice, we spent time out there watching for wildlife.The only suggestion i have is if you plan on doing any cooking at all *there are no frying pans or baking sheets. So you might wanna bring cookware.There is a kuerig, i read a review that said there wasnt but they have a kuerig and a regular coffee pot.. Greenbriar Restaurant is within walking distance and a nice grocery store is a 2 min drive. We loved the location and would definitely stay there again.

We had a blast at this home! Very clean. The only negative would be that we saw 8 different bears and that didn't make for easy pottie breaks for our dogs, but other than that it was everything we wanted!

Memorial weekend getaway

What an amazing place Poolin' around is! Conveniently located in the Smokey mountains and minutes away from Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. The cabin is magical.... nestled in the woods. We especially loved the fire pit! This place has everything: indoor pool, hot tub, large kitchen with every appliance you need. The bedroom and bathrooms were very comfortable and very clean!

Weekend getaway

The amenities of the property was great. The pool 100% lived up to our expectations. Though the picture of the TV in the listing is bigger than what was actually in the cabin. When visiting Gatlinburg or places similar. My only suggestion is to be vigilant of your surroundings of The wildlife. While the Bears are semi domesticated, they are wild animals. You will have close encounters with them, protect your pets by respecting their boundaries. We had a great time and was very impressed with our cabin.

The perfect cabin for small family!

The most relaxing stay in Gatlinburg yet! Our kids loved the pool downstairs. My husband and I could relax in the hot tub and watch the kids play in the pool. It was close to everything we needed. We ended up staying at the cabin for the majority of the trip. We enjoyed it so much and will definitely be back.

Anniversary Trip

My wife and I rented this cabin for our 10 year anniversary trip. The cabin was very clean and inviting. It is conviently located a few miles from downtown Gatlinburg. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet. The pool was a great amenity and it was warm in the pool area even though the temperature outside got down in the 40's. I would definitely recommend this cabin.

Great space

It’s a great cabin in an awesome location. The pool and hot tub are great. I wouldn’t personally recommend it for any more than two people though, it’s a bit of a tight space. But really perfect for you and your partner. Make sure to bring hand soap, there was oddly none anywhere in the cabin.

Perfect for couples!

Very nice place, clean and comfortable. We loved this place, it was close to the main strip but far enough away from the crowds. The pool was nice but could use a cleaning, and I wish the hot tub was inside instead of out (we seen bears and were afraid to stay in too long). Also it could use a flood light over the parking area for the early risers and late night adventures. Over all we loved this place and plan ok coming back again soon.
