About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

ECHO PLACE. A cozy Family Base Camp for Hiking, Skiing, and Area Exploration!

Echo Place has over 1,580 SF of living area with lots of surrounding porches and decks. A bedroom and bath on each of the three levels makes the ideal setup for up privacy when more than one couple/family come together for fun in the Smokies. We advertise to sleep (8) due to size of cabin. However with the sofa bed and loft cubby it can actually sleep eight (8) adults and three (3) children comfortably. Plenty of very well lit parking for at least 4 vehicles. Zero steps to the main level!

The Main Level features a bedroom with King bed and bunkbeds for kids/teenagers, HDTV and DVD player. The bathroom is shared with the main living area. Open kitchen/dining/living room with HDTV/DVD Player and Bluetooth surround sound to stream your own music. A huge stone fireplace, soaring ceilings, plenty of glass/french doors to the decks and woods make this space seem huge. The deck space off the main level includes a large covered porch with picnic table, open decking with Adirondack chairs and a bar w/seating to take in the views and mountain air. Also a half-court shuffleboard off the parking lot makes for great outdoor fun. The hiking center is at the entrance with hiking poles, binoculars, and a ruck pack full of emergency items.

The Loft Level features a Queen bed w/child sleeping area, private bath and French doors leading to a nice balcony and sitting area. HDTV.

The Lower Level features a third bedroom with King bed, HDTV, UT themed laundry room, and a recreation room. The bathroom is shared between the rec room and bedroom. Recreation includes a beautiful handcrafted shuffleboard table, an air hockey table, and a 3-in-1 bumper pool/poker/game table. Comfortable sectional for viewing movies on the large surround sound HDTV with Bluetooth theater. Plenty of movies and games provided for your use as well as several board games.
Off the Rec Room is an enclosed screened in porch with a bubbling hot tub and comfortable seating to take in the night. A grille area is just outside (bring your own charcoal).
Internet and Streaming Services provided along with plenty of movies onsite for family movie night.

Nice setup for a larger group. The kids and grandparents checked out the hot tub and wide variety of table games, outdoor games, and board games. We had a bear visitor briefly the first night, it new to check around the cars but left them alone since we followed the recommendations of no food in the car and kept the trashcan container tightly shut. Then the last night it provided some extra entertainment tearing up the neighbors trash. The kids havent stopped talking about it. Very close to Garlinburg and not too far from Pigeon Forge (20-30 minutes depending traffic) We tried the Ski mountain pizza to support locals but we would not recommend it even though its very close. Great communication with the host and well kept.

We had a very nice stay. The host seemed very laid back. The cabin was cozy and we really enjoyed our trip. I think there were a couple of things that not everyone would be prepared for that are common in Gatlinburg area. The cabin and amenities were a bit rustic. The light switches were all over the place. The roads up to it a very steep and very winding. Otherwise, highly recommend.

It worked for what we needed. Didn't walk around bare foot down stairs. A lot of lights were out, was told to change them, just decided not to use the outdoor at night. Except the picnic table, that was well lit and dry enough to set at. Didn't get in hot tub.

We had a great time. The cabin was very clean and it was pretty well stocked. The porches could have used a good sweep to get rid of the spiders and webs but to be far, we are in the woods. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were very clean. Great place for a sibling get together.

We had a great labor day weekend trip in Gatlinburg! The cabin was very large and well appointed, the kids had a great time as well. The hot tub was great as well and my wife and daughters loved it. Everyone also loved seeing the bears. So Many Bears!! We saw more bears around the cabin then we have ever seen in our many smokies trips. On more than one occasion they were within feet of us!

My family wasn’t happy with the cleanliness of the cabin! There were dead bugs, spiders, and cob-webs everywhere. We had to get ahold of the owner to clean for us again and bring fresh towels since some of the dead bugs were on the towels. The cabin wasn’t what we pictured it to be! There are cabins all around it on a cliff side. On a different note we did see bears every day around the cabin and on the deck (blocking us in the cabin for a while) but you can clearly see that the people are feeding the bears around those cabins which they shouldn’t. Regardless we didn’t let the disappoint of the cabin prevent our family from having a good time!

The property was a bit run down and there was no yard whatsoever BUT we saw bear everyday. The hot tub was great!! The housekeeper, Sissy was amazing!! The toaster was broken and she brought a new one in a jiffy. The windy road is breathtaking. I did wish we had a view from the porch but when we were in the driveway we could see the mountain view beautifully.
