The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is one of my favorite destinations in the Southeast U.S. These vacation home rentals in the Great Smoky Mountains are the perfect “home bases” for exploring the most popular national park in the country.

I highly recommend visiting The Smokies as part of a Blue Ridge Mountains Road Trip!

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park Guide

From treehouses and log cabins to glamping domes and luxury chalets, I’ve got the perfect rental home for you.

Here are the coolest vacation home rentals in the Great Smoky Mountains!

Treehouse Grove

Gatlinburg, Tennessee

4 guests · 2 bedrooms · 2 beds · 1 bath

Treehouses and national parks are the perfect pair! You’ll feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere, but you’re only a short drive to Gatlinburg. Plus, the Sugarlands park entrance is close by, which is the gateway to many of The Smokies’ most iconic hikes and drives.

Glamping Dome

Sevierville, Tennessee

2 guests · 1 bedroom · 1 bed · 1 bath

Glamping is one of my favorite ways to experience national parks. You’ve got the luxurious dome to sleep in and the rustic porch, bathhouse, and firepit for more traditional camping. The property also has a barn apartment, tiny house, and another dome if you want to stay here with a group of friends or family.

Studio Barn

Sevierville, Tennessee

7 guests · 4 beds · 1 bath

This chalet-inspired studio barn has vaulted ceilings, a private creek, and a sauna. You’ll be just 11 miles from the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, seven miles to Pigeon Forge, and 12 miles to the Foothills Parkway (one of my favorite scenic drives).

Room For Your Whole Crew

Gatlinburg, Tennessee

24 guests · 6 bedrooms · 12 beds · 7 baths

You can bring your whole crew to this luxury chalet. There’s an indoor pool, game room, hot tub, theater room, gas grill, and outdoor seating. Plus, you’ll be conveniently located to all of the area’s main attractions.

Lakefront Home

Robbinsville, North Carolina

12 guests · 3 bedrooms · 10 beds · 4 full baths, 2 half baths

What could be better than a mountain getaway? A mountain getaway that’s also on a lake! This tranquil property has kayaks, a dock, and the lake is open to boating and fishing. Plus, you’re just a short drive from the national park, the Nantahala River, and the Fontana Dam.

Cabin With A View

Sevierville, Tennessee

16 guests · 8 bedrooms · 11 beds · 7 baths

This is the ultimate destination for a family gathering or friends’ getaway. The house has two hot tubs, foosball, air hockey, an arcade game, a pool table, a year-round swimming pool, a grill, and three decks with 180 degrees mountain and valley views. Plus, you’ll feel secluded, but this house is actually only about a five-minute drive from Pigeon Forge.

Log Home

Whittier, North Carolina

4 guests · 2 bedrooms · 2 beds · 1.5 baths

What trip to The Smokies could be more authentic than staying in an old-world, charming log cabin? This home is located on 30 acres of secluded wooded hillside, and you’ll never want to leave the porch swings and their view of a gorgeous valley.

Secluded With Views

Sevierville, Tennessee

6 guests · 2 bedrooms · 3 beds · 2 baths

This home has it all – two wrap-around decks, retro arcade games, a hot tub, three TVs, cathedral ceilings on the upper and lower level, two fireplaces, an air hockey table, and a waterfall next to the patio. And you can’t beat the views here!
