Playful Paws Cabin is a great location to try out Dollywood — Now known for the first winged roller coaster in the country. The ride delivers a heart-stopping twist on regular roller-coaster seats. Seats jut out on either side of the track, so have nothing above or below them but air — giving them a real sensation of flying as they scream at more than 60 mph through four inversions and a zero-gravity roll. Of course, the 200-foot-high coaster’s cars are built to look like the national bird.

Some of our favorite hikes are:
Mingo Falls
Mingo Falls is on the Cherokee Indian Reservation (Qualla Boundary), just outside Great Smoky Mountains National Park. No special permits are required for access to the reservation. At 120 feet tall, the waterfall is one of the tallest and most spectacular in the southern Appalachians. The hike to the waterfall is only 0.4 miles in length, but is considered moderate in difficulty. Access Trail: Pigeon Creek Trail Trailhead: From Oconaluftee Visitor Center, drive south (toward Cherokee) on US-441 and take the second left onto Big Cove Road. At the first stop sign turn left and drive 4.5 miles to Mingo Falls Campground, where the trail begins.
Juney Whank Falls
Juney Whank Falls is divided into an upper and lower section. Both can be viewed from the footbridge which crosses Juney Whank Branch at the falls. Together they drop 90 feet from top to bottom. The trail to the waterfall is 0.8 miles roundtrip and is considered moderate in difficulty.
Grotto Falls
Trillium Gap Trail meanders through an old-growth hemlock forest and actually runs behind the 25 foot high waterfall. The cool, moist environment near the falls is ideal for salamanders and summer hikers. The hike is 3 miles roundtrip and considered moderate Trailhead: From the parkway in Gatlinburg, turn at traffic light #8 and follow Historic Nature Trail into Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Take Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail to stop #5 where there is a large parking area. This one is close and absolutely beautiful. I last hiked it with my 60 year old mother and 4 nieces and nephews ranging in age from 3-11 years old. We saw 3 bears at a distant, swam in the reflective pool of the falls, and had a fun-filled day without over doing it.

One bedroom main level, the loft where mini pool table, foosball, and air hockey are located is the other queen bed. We thought there were two bedrooms, and a-game room. Not really infant friendly. Bring your own baby accessories. Surrounded by trees, however it is very close to roads, that when we stayed was constant traffic. We had a bear on our front porch!! Not many towels provided, a ton of cobwebs on all out door furniture. Hot tub was clean and nice! Spiral stairs up to loft is very tight. Loved all the windows for views of the trees. Its Like a tree house! Also no closets, or anywhere to store your clothes. Not a lot of storage, or pantry for food. Just letting everyone know the things we would of liked to know to be prepared. Easy check in, and out! The community is nice.

Beautiful cabin and well worth the stay

The Playful Paws cabin was exactly as described. It was clean and well appointed with lots of natural light and all the amenities one could ask for. It served as a mini retreat as much as it did a family vacation spot. Now that I have a bit more confidence driving in the mountains, I would definitely return to this cabin in the future.

Not great

We've stayed in cabins in the Smokies for years. We love the rustic cozy vibe of a cabin. But rustic doesn't mean dirty and tattered. When we first entered this cabin it reeked of dirty feet and sweat. We wanted to open a window but only one opens in the entire cabin and it has no screen. The rugs and furniture are grimy and tattered. We couldn't stand to be on the rugs without shoes, and we didn't even want to sit on the couch because of how dirty it was. Since everything else was dirty we wondered if the bedding was entirely clean. The shower is very small. There is a spiral staircase to the game room and second bed upstairs. The staircase is extremely steep and rickety. We didn't feel safe using it. We wouldn't recommend it for young children at all. Overall, it wasn't a great cabin and we can't really recommend it. (The location is very far up the mountain. Maybe not a big deal to some but be advised.) Maybe with some changes it could be fine for someone else.

We had such a wonderful time staying in the cabin. Host was great with communication, and check in was easy. Cabin was the perfect size for us and being pet friendly made it even better. We loved the hot tub and my son and husband even saw a bear out the living room windows!! We would definitely book again!!! Thank you for such a wonderful weekend!

This cabin had everything we needed for our two kids (11 & 6). The played and slept in the game room / loft, while we relaxed downstairs. Cabin surrounded by windows gives the complete mountain woods experience. Pet friendly is a plus too! Several other cabins in sight but still get 5 stars from us.

Spectacular

This cabin has the most spectacular views from inside and the location is perfect...so many things to do nearby in any direction. We went to the arts and crafts district of Gatlinburg only 10 mins away, where we ate and shopped the most unique finds. The cabin was extremely clean and well cared for. We had a family of 5 and was surprised how roomy the living space is. We enjoy all the extra touches the owner has added to make the cabin sparkle. The place was just so comfortable and the stay was fun and easy. We had a terrific time in the game room and just exploring the neighborhood.

Dirty & Misleading

The cabin was very disappointing. Many things were broken, coated in dust/and or heavy evidence of dog use including a listed bed. Blankets and towels smelled of dog, exposed box springs ripped & full of filth, and a broken fireplace. To our complete surprise, a random man just showed up at one point, acknowledging the broken listing items but was never heard from again.

A Perfect First Vrbo Experience!

As first-time Vrbo users (and long-time resort and hotel people), we couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to vacation rentals. This cabin was the perfect mix of cozy and spacious, with plenty of games to keep the family entertained and room to relax. The location was a major highlight—secluded enough for that peaceful mountain vibe but still close to everything we wanted to explore. It truly gave us the best of both worlds. We loved every moment and are already looking forward to our next stay!
