Happy Camper is a cottage designed for escape from daily pressures and enjoyment of God's creation, as found in the Great Smoky Mountains. It is equipped for relaxation, contemplation, and memorable fun. Nestled at the base of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in beautiful Wears Valley, Tennessee, Happy Camper rests on a shady and secluded knoll, easily accessible from scenic Highway 321 and within minutes of a Park entrance and action-packed Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
Nature abounds on this 15+ acres of property. Deer, rabbits, squirrels, and, yes, bears all inhabit the surrounding woods and would be considered your only neighbors. A mountain pathway adjoining Happy Camper invites you to stroll or hike among mature hardwoods, mountain laurels, and rhododendrons. Find the park bench along the path and stop to enjoy a little solitude. The driveway from Covemont Road (county road) to the property is in excellent condition. If you arrive at night, no problem; motion lights will automatically illuminate for you! Only six steps up from the driveway, you have arrived on the covered entry deck with a keypad door!
Welcome inside the Joanna Gaines' motif Happy Camper, where the fully-equipped kitchen awaits you (owners are parents of five and grandparents of seven, so they know the importance of having cookie sheets, a toaster, and plenty of pots and pans available to you). Even a washer and dryer are hidden in the kitchen closet. A dining table seats four easily, and TV trays are on hand to extend seating or to use while relaxing in living/sunrooms. Additionally, there is a custom-built picnic table and a gas grill right out the door for al fresco dining and grilling.
The living area boasts double leather recliners, a shag rug, large tv, and a Murphy bed with a top-of-the-line SealyTM mattress (single size). A cozy gas corner fireplace will provide beautiful flames that are great to watch while also providing an excellent source of warm heat! The adjoining sunroom has two loveseats (one of which makes out a single bed and a comfortable mattress). The sunroom is a favorite place to stretch out with a good book!
Everything needed for a wonderful night's sleep or an afternoon nap is included in the bedroom. King-sized bed (again, with top-of-the-line mattressowners say a good night's sleep is essential to a good vacation), phone docking stations built into side tables, custom-made shutters to enjoy both privacy and the natural beauty of the outdoors. There is also a TV in the bedroom if you want to end your day with a good movie or wake up to some morning news (but why?).
The bathroom is accessible from both the living area and the bedroom and includes a full-sized see-through corner shower and sink with space for additional items (makeup, toothbrushes, etc.). Forget your hair dryer? No problem. There is one in the bathroom for you! The bathroom also has a nice window to enjoy additional light and nature outdoors.
Happy Camper has a covered front porch with rockers (metal porch roof, so you will enjoy hearing the mountain rain). Additionally, the front porch deck is completely enclosed with a latched gate so that little ones or small pets are kept safe. On the back and a private side of the carriage is an open deck featuring a built-in hot tub (also with a latched gate), Adirondack chairs for soaking in the afternoon sunshine, and a view directly towards the outdoor firepit. The hot tub is brand new, just like everything else at Happy Camper, and is professionally maintained with the highest standards of cleanliness.
Go straight into the woods from the open deck and gather your own kindling and logs for a memorable night around the campfire (hot dogs and marshmallow skewers are in the kitchen cabinet). Create your own personal ambiance on the private deck, in the hot tub, and around the fire pit. The night is yours! Seize the moment!
Happy Camper is the perfect cottage for two but can also accommodate two additional guests, including the custom-built Murphy bed and the pull-out sofa.
Some extra information:
Our water is straight from the mountains via a private well full of vitamins and minerals. It tastes excellent, so much so that many people come to get their drinking water from this area.
Road Conditions to This Cabin:
All are easily accessible roads. As you turn off paved Covemont Road onto a gravel road, be sure to keep your speed steady as you climb the slight hill; bear to the left/straight ahead at the "Happy Camper" sign.
