5 Benefits of Staying in Our Wears Valley Cabins
Staying in Wears Valley is truly a unique experience, but choosing to stay in one of our Wears Valley cabins makes the experience that much better. Aside from having the most stunning views of the Great Smoky Mountains paired with the comfort of staying in a cabin that’s been designed with you in mind, our cabin rentals in Wears Valley are better than cabins anywhere else. Here’s why:
1. True Experience of the Smoky Mountains
When you’re looking for a true, authentic experience of the Smoky Mountains, there’s no place like Wears Valley. You will get to enjoy the peaceful side of the Smokies with a resort-like setting and less hustle and bustle. It’s the best of both worlds: seclusion and ultimate relaxation surrounded by the quiet mountains and a convenient location close to all of the action!
2. Proximity to Hidden Gems
Staying at one of our Wears Valley cabins allows you to avoid the busiest parts of town and the traffic along the Pigeon Forge Parkway. You can still enjoy all of the popular things to do in town, but there are some must-do Wears Valley attractions to explore, including hidden gem restaurants like Elvira’s Cafe, and unique places to visit along Wears Valley Road like mountain coasters, general stores, zipline tours, mini golf, and so much more!
3. Less Parkway Traffic
Another great thing about staying at our cabins in Wears Valley TN is you don’t have to worry about traffic! You can actually get to our cabin resort “the back way” from Maryville TN, so you don’t have to plan around the Sevierville and Pigeon Forge traffic!
4. Secret National Park Entrance
Making Wears Valley even better, it’s located with its own private entrance to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Many people recognize this entrance as a “secret entrance to the national park” because it’s so hidden from the other entrances.
You can find the Wears Valley entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park on Lyon Spring Road. There’s typically a lot less traffic at this entrance, and you’ll be able to reach your favorite destinations within the park easily, including Cades Cove Loop Road.
5. Closest Location to Cades Cove
The Wears Valley route to Cades Cove is a great way to get around some of the typical Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg traffic. All you do is follow Wears Valley Road until it dead ends, turn left, and make your way through Townsend. You’ll run into Little River Road and, at that point, you’re about 7 to 10 miles from Cades Cove.
If you choose to use the Sugarlands entrance in Gatlinburg to Cades Cove, you can expect the route to take at least an hour or more, depending on traffic. With the Wears Valley route and no traffic, you can make it to Cades Cove from our cabin rentals in Wears Valley TN in approximately 30 minutes.
