Wooded views, screened-in porch w. hot tub, fireplace When you stay at A Garden Blessing, you’ll be giving your family—or yourself and your sweetheart—a vacation you’ll long remember. The one-bedroom cabin, which sleeps four, is just a few minutes from all the major attractions of the Gatlinburg area. What’s more, it’s packed with attractions of its own, including a hot tub and free Wi-Fi. The cabin even has its own washer and dryer for maximum convenience. As soon as you pull into A Garden Blessing’s covered carport, you’ll see how appropriate the cabin’s name is. The partially fenced-in grounds are beautifully landscaped, and there’s even a small rain-fed stream coursing along the property. You can savor the peaceful setting from the large deck or the screened-in back porch. Because the porch is furnished with a bistro table and chairs, you can enjoy your meals out here among the fresh mountain breezes. It’s also a lovely spot to enjoy a late-night drink in the silvery moonlight. French doors connect A Garden Blessing’s porch to the great room. Sunshine pouring in through the numerous windows accentuates the luster of the wood-planked walls, floor and cathedral ceiling. On chilly nights the electric fireplace will bathe the room in a cozy glow. Then again, no matter how weary your muscles, a soak in A Garden Blessing’s hot tub is sure to rejuvenate them. Because the two-person tub is indoors, you can revel amid the steamy bubbles regardless of the weather. There’s no better way to cap off a day of skiing at Ober than with a soak. Dining out is often a vacation highlight, and A Garden Blessing is only a short drive to scores of restaurants. Sometimes, though, nothing beats a family meal in the comfort of your own cabin or on the cabin’s porch! The great room’s dining table seats four with room to spare. There’s also a breakfast bar with three stools that doubles as additional kitchen counter space. Equipped with cookware, tableware and a full array of appliances, from full-size refrigerator to blender and toaster the kitchen can handle just about any meal. Thanks to the open layout, you can still chat with the rest of the family even while you work your culinary magic. What’s more, you can barbecue in the yard’s charcoal grill. Like the rest of A Garden Blessing, the bedroom is an ideal combination of contemporary comfort and rustic charm. The king-size bed will have you looking forward to turning in early. If you don’t fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow, you can watch the bedroom’s TV or surf the web. The kids can sleep on the living area’s sofa bed. Sleep might be the last thing on your mind, however. There’s simply too much to see and do. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park is only 15 minutes away, even closer is the Great Smoky Arts and Crafts Community, an eight-mile trail of shops, studios and galleries. And in just 10 minutes you can drive to downtown Gatlinburg, home to everything from Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies to distilleries to the Guinness World Records Adventure.
