If you're looking for the optimum vacation cabin experience in the Smokies, look no further than Rainbow's End Lodge in Gatlinburg. Located in a prime location at the edge of the Glades Arts & Crafts Community, this large luxury cabin was designed from the ground up to be a first-class vacation getaway, with the perfect blend of private and common spaces, professionally-designed décor, and a gorgeous view of Mt. LeConte. Entering the home takes you into the great room, with a towering stack-stone fireplace reaching to the cathedral ceiling and an expansive wall of windows bringing the mountains indoors. There is a variety of seating options around the fireplace, as well as a dining area with seating for 8. The kitchen is spacious and efficient, with upscale appliances, dual-tone cabinets with granite tile tops, and a substantial island with breakfast bar seating for 4. There's a laundry room with full-size machines adjoining, as well as a powder room off the entry for convenience. This impressive space is flanked by a pair of suites - each has a king bed, walk-in closet, shower, window nook with whirlpool tub, and private deck access. The deck is a great place to gather, grill, and soak in the hot tub, all while enjoying the mountains in the distance. Back indoors, an open staircase leads to the rec area in the loft, with a pool table, TV, and pub table ideal for a game of cards. Another powder room on this level keeps trips up and down the stairs from interrupting the games. This space is also bounded by two suites that share the same features as the main-level suites, except that each accesses a private outdoor balcony. The final outdoor feature is a true rarity in the Smokies: plenty of flat, paved, private parking! This is all located less than 15 minutes from downtown, and within walking distance of Mills Park, the Community Center & Library, and Rocky Top Sports World. There's also a trolley stop just a 5-minute walk away, so you can leave your car behind and take a free trolley ride to explore the town! This superb property combines design, execution, and location to create an experience sure to please even the most discerning guest, as evidenced by a strong rental record and glowing guest reviews. This is the property our visitors and investors are looking for, so schedule your private showing ASAP to see for yourself!
