Smoky Mountain Golden Cabins Guestbook
Please sign our guestbook! Thanks!
Best vacation ever!
My family recently stayed 9 days in the "family memories " cabin and it wasn't long enough! We had the best time in the beautiful Smoky Mountains. The views from the front porch were unforgettable, and so many things to do in town. Don't miss Dollywood, Goats on the Roof, Elvira's for breakfast (right down the road) and The Island in Pigeon Forge. Great time, can't wait to come back to our "home away from home" in Wears Valley. Thanks again!

Smoky Montains
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bear Falls! The cabin was very clean and spacious and easily accommodated our family of 12. My dad, brothers and nephew really enjoyed the pool table. This was our first visit to the Smoky Mountains but it will not be our last. Thanks so much for a memorable vacation. God bless.

Fond Memories
Thank you for sharing your lodge for our family vacation. The 16 of us were finally able to pull off a family vacation after a year in the planning. We enjoyed every square inch on the lodge & will certainly attempt to plan another vacation in the Smokies...

Quiet Get Away
Thank you for making our stay at your cabin such a peaceful and relaxing get away. The special touches of the rocking chairs for us to sit outside and take in the beauty of God's creation as well as the large windows inside the living room to take in the spectacular views allowed us to be surrounded by God's peace. We look forward to renting your cabin in the Fall or the Winter so we will also be able to enjoy the hot tub, fire pit, and fireplace.

Great Location!
Family Memories Cabin is in a great location between Pigeon Forge and Townsend. Our family of 5 adults and 3 children all slept comfortably. The kitchen is well-equipped. The hot tub is HUGE! The pool and little fishing pond down the street is a nice extra, as well. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again!

Perfect Getaway
Our family loves this location!!! It is easy driving distance to both Pigeon Forge and Townsend, but feels much more remote. I love the quiet! The cabin itself was comfortable and true to its online promises. We had a tiny problem with the lock on the door initially, but one quick phone call yielded an immediate response. We also received a follow-up phone call the next morning. Unlike some places we've stayed, we felt good about the grandkids playing in the hot tub. They thoroughly enjoyed that, as well as the jacuzzi. I've already recommended SMGC to friends. We will be back!

Great, Affordable Smoky Mountain Experience!
We had an amazing time staying in the Bear Lodge cabin! The place was in excellent condition and looked just like the pictures. We will definitely be coming back for our next Smoky Mountain trip. We particularly enjoyed the fire pit and the hot tub. The weather was excellent and the area is simply beautiful. 5 stars!

Great!
We loved the Family Memories cabin. We had invited my cousin and her husband down as well. We took them several places and they loved it. It was the first time in Wears Valley, so it was a special treat for us all. We've been to Gatlinburg for years, but this side is so peaceful. The cabin was clean, and we are picky about that. It had everything we needed and the laundry room was spotless. Beds were comfortable and we had lots of towels. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch in the evening. We'll be back again.

Love Golden View Lodge!!!
Don & Margaret, thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us! It was the perfect gathering place for our family to celebrate my parents' 60th Wedding Anniversary. The flexible sleeping arrangements allowed us to easily accommodate all 18 members of our group. We ate all of our meals out on the porch...couldn't get enough of the spectacular views!!! The proximity to Cades Cove was key for us...our favorite Smoky Mountain activity is the 11 mile bike ride around the Cove. We look forward to staying in your cabin again in the future. Thank you!!!

PREFECT FOR FAMILY
This cabin is one our top 3 picks for staying in the mountains. We have been coming for over 20 years at least 2 or three times each a year. We lover the views and the quiet. The grandboys all 4 enjoyed the outside. the firepit was great family fun every night. The cabin was so cozy and so well stock with all we needed and more. Plenty of room for the whole family in the living room but enough to to spread out if needed. Thanks for a great cabin. The Rockwells

Breathtaking View
Our family of 16 spent 9 days at Heaven's View Cabin. My favorite spot was the deck looking out at the mountains. We spent so many mornings and evenings out there. Loved the large dining table that allowed our grandchildren to enjoy meals and snacks while enjoying the gorgeous mountains, fireflies and cool weather. The cabin is close to everything we enjoy while in TN. Don't miss out on Cades Cove making sure you go no earlier than 6PM if you want to see the most wildlife. Also, stop on the way back at Masterburger for a great burger and the best ice cream! The Ripley's Aquarium is great for kids and adults. The best food during this trip.........PAULA DEEN'S FAMILY KITCHEN! Don't dare be this close and not go there!

Family Vacation
This was a great place to stay with our children and grandchildren we had plenty of room and lots to do. Our first day we had some AC problems made a call and it was taking care of quickly. We will definitely rent from Smoky Mountain Secluded cabins again

Simply Golden Cabin was beautiful!!
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Simply Golden Cabin. The cabin is beautiful inside, clean, well furnished, it has everything you need. We enjoyed playing pool with our kids and grilling s'mores at the fire pit. The views from the cabin are spectacular, the sunrises and sunsets are gorgeous!! Thanks for making the rental process so easy, we hope to be back soon!!

Writers' Retreat Success
The Family Memories cabin was exactly as advertised: comfy beds, cozy fire pit, bubbling hot tub, clean, and accommodating. We had a party of six and all had plenty of space to spread out and do our own things. The owners were courteous and attentive (called to make sure everything was working properly--it was), and the surrounding area was scenic and convenient. In fact, a member of our group is from Knoxville and commended me multiple times for picking such a fabulous cabin/location. Thank you for the wonderful experience; we had a fantastic time!

Heaven's View
We had a great time in the Smokey Mountains! Heaven's View cabin did not disappoint. The view from the front porch was magnificent overlooking the mountains. On the first night we noticed that one of the pool sticks was damaged and the next day called about it. 2 new pool sticks were promptly brought to the cabin after the call. The location is great as it is only about 10 minutes from Pigeon Forge, 30 minutes from Cade's Cove and less than hour away from white water rafting. The cabin was well stocked with supplies and Donn and Margaret were very easy to work with. I highly recommend Smokey Mountain Golden Cabins and would without a doubt book with them again.

Family Heaven
What a family treat!! We reserved the cabin in order to attend my daughters wedding in the area. My entire family of 14 coming in from Kentucky, Tennessee, New York and Texas convened at the cabin and all agreed, we could not have done a better job in choosing a place to spend our family gathering together on such a special occasion First of all, "Heavens View" is an understatement, what a fantastic view of the Smokey Mtns. from 3 different levels of back porches no less. The cabin was clean when we arrived, the beds were comfortable and everything actually worked!! It is also centrally located to all the nearby Smokey Mountain area Naional Park locations, including Pigeon Forge and Cades Cove. From evening cookouts and dining on the back porch during a moonlit night to playing pool in the game room, relaxing in the hot tub after a long day of shopping or hiking or having the family gather around the large dining room table to play our favorite card game, it was perfect!!! And if your lucky, visits from the small furry four legged critters from the woods were a treat for the young kids to view, behind closed doors of course!!! I would highly recommend "Heaven's View" for any family event that your planning in the future!!!!

Excellent vacation
My family had a great stay in the cabin and smoky mountains. The cabin is absolutely beautiful. Definitely would recommend to anyone wanting a get away that is so relaxing and peaceful. We loved being in the hot tub and watching the sun set over the mountain. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your cabin. God Bless!

Beautiful Cabin
We enjoyed our stay in your very clean and comfortable cabin. Although it was only the two of us it still seemed cozy. Of course we pretty much just used the main floor. The cabin is close enough to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg but not too close. We really like how secluded it is. The highlight of the trip was our visits to the national park. It is spectacular! We hope to come back with our adult children and stay at Bear Falls again. Oh, the couches are amazing and the bed was very comfortable too.

Supreme Lodging!
Bear Lodge is supreme lodging in every way! It is perfectly located for families who enjoy exploring the national park, while avoiding the bustle of the tourist towns. But, if Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge do spark your interests, Bear Lodge is convienantly located with easy access to either one. We found the cabin to be perfectly clean, with every luxury imaginable!

Great place to relax
This year was our second time to stay at the Golden View Lodge. April was a wonderful time to visit the Smokey Mountains. We enjoyed a fire pit in the evenings and Relaxed in the hot tub. Sitting on the porch in the morning having coffee and enjoying the view of Wear' s valley was amazing. We really feel so comfortable at this cabin. It is wonderful for a group like ours. We are looking forward to next year when we can return to Golen View Lodge for another vacation.

Absolutely loved the cabin. The beds were so comfortable. The scenery was stunning. Beautiful all the way around. I would suggest updating the stereo to one that has an aux plug. Would gladly come back again.

Loved our stay at Golden View Lodge !
Twenty nurses getting together after 50 years to celebrate our graduation from E.T.B.H. School of Nursing ! The cabin was perfect ; there was plenty of room for all to sleep; plenty of room for us to gather around tables or in the living area. There were lots of rockers on the porch to view the mountains and the valley below, and it was a spectacular view!!! Thank you for a wonderful place to relax and renew friendships.

Better Than Expected
My stay at the Golden Memories cabin could not have been more satisfying. The cabin was clean and well maintained, the bed was very comfortable to sleep in after long hikes, and the seclusion from other tourists was my favorite feature. This cabin exceeded my expectations and when I visit the Smoky Mountains again, I will be staying at this cabin. The name "Golden Memories" is definitely fitting, as I got engaged here too!

Beautiful and relaxing
We have rented this.home for the past three years, staying five days to a week each Spring. It has always been spotlessly clean and well equipped. The view from the well-furnished deck is what keeps us coming back! The location is perfect-- quiet but close to the park entrance, a good grocery, fried green tomatoes at Beef and Trout, and the best bbq ever at Real Pit (with lovely riverside seating .) The house can keep everyone entertained with the hot tub and pool table, even on rainy days. HIGHLY recommended.

Bliss in the Mountains
Our stay at Black Bear Falls cabin was the best. Where were 8 of us, my husband, myself and our three adult kids and their significant others. There was plenty of room for privacy and an open floor plan when we gathered. The cabin was very conveniently located to all the attractions in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Also just 10 minutes from the entrance to the National Park. We all LOVED this cabin. It is beautiful, clean and my family made memories there. We will be back!!! Thank you for sharing your amazing cabin in the mountains with us.

Our stay at Golden Memories
My husband and I rented The Golden Memories Cabin to celebrate our 22nd wedding anniversary. The cabin was everything we hoped it would be, comfortable, relaxing, private, and we wanted mountain views from our hot tub. We got it all and more. We will definitely rent from Smoky Mountain Golden Cabins again! Trent & Chante' Winters Sevierville,Tn

What a wonderful stay in Family Memories Cabin
The cabin was more than we expected lots of room and very cozy. We had our three grown daughters (one from AZ) together for first time in years and memories we were able to make in this cabin. There was plenty of space for all and areas you could have some quite time if needed. We enjoyed the fire pit it was nice just to enjoy the quiet outdoors and sit by the fire and let life pass by for a change we have told all our friends about how peaceful and nice this cabin is and we hope to return with a group of our friends. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

Golden Memories
This quaint cabin tucked away in the Smoky Mountains comes with picturesque views and relaxing amenities. The name 'Golden Memories' is certainly apropos; my spouse and I found the perfect photographic moment amidst the rising morning sun.

My husband and I celebrated our 38th wedding anniversary at Golden View Lodge, and we had all 3 of our children plus significant others with them, so it became a family affair. The cabin was perfect and very relaxing during our stay. We definitely will be back to enjoy the Smokies and feel safe during our stay. Tim and Jayne Sabo

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Smoky Mountains. The cabin was perfect for our needs, with plenty of beds, a nice kitchen and game tables for our inside time. We enjoyed s'mores over a fire in the fire pit one evening. There were plenty of linens and the cabin was very clean. We hope to return someday and explore the areas we did not have time to explore on this trip!

best vacation home rental
we have been coming to wears valley and the surrounding towns now for the past 25 years, always finding the best home for our needs as we travel with dogs. this home was perfect for that. one level that has everything you need. and very hard to find a home with a yard for the dogs. the home itself clean comfortable and the view was outstanding. I cook a lot and the kitchen also had everything needed to do so. this was a special anniversary trip for us and this house was the right choice for us. great location away from the noise but close enough in minutes to it. I could pick the stars right out of the sky. and if you need quiet you got it .most importantly the owners were great to work with I must add that. so this was for sure a five star rating.

Bear Falls Cabin
What a great cabin for our group. We have been going on trips to watch the final four for 36 years. We come from all over. Cincinnati, St Louis, Omaha, Atlanta and Indianapolis. We have been coming to the Gatlinburg area most of these trips and this is the first time we actually had plenty of space for all to stretch out. Easy access to the local grocery store, restaurants and golf courses. Very private and quiet. Nice to hear of the new changes to the cabin. As a group we really liked the cabin and like to come back if the cabin is available the first weekend of April in 2017. Only suggestion these old men made was maybe a larger screen TV in the living room area. Thanks again! Tom

Great Place to Stay
This cabin is roomy--plenty of beds and baths. Also, plenty of seating in living room and dining. There is a beautiful view and plenty of parking. The location is wonderful, also. Would be nice if the refrigerator had an ice maker, so take your ice! Owners are wonderful to work with and are on top of all of your needs.
