Great time
Me and my friends stayed for a week and had a great time. The space was great and fit perfectly for our needs its also in perfect distance to going shoping and haveing fun in either Gatlinburg or Pidgeon Forge. The only thing we might sugest is that the outside lights be brighter, my friend who brought her dogs often didnt like to go out at night because the lights wernt all that bright expecely the back flood lights but really that would be the only thing everything eles was great and we will defently come back whenever we come back to the area.

Mountain View’s
This property was very nice…secluded with great Mountain View’s. It was a little further away from Gatlinburg and Pigeon forge than we anticipated but we made it work for our day trips. They offered delivery of breakfast which we took advantage of and enjoyed! Only downfall was the amount of stink bugs in the upper bedroom. It was horrible. Especially waking up in the middle of the night with them on you! I know this is a difficult thing to control as we have them at home but not to this extreme.

About the host

Hosted by Tammy and Sam

Host profile image
Please allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Sam and Tammy ; We ourselves were once visitors to The Great Smoky Mountains. Sam is a native Swiss/German and had always the idea to offer and operate a “back to the basics” or Vacation retreat “holiday on a family owned and operated Farm”. We traveled all over the US to see where we want to settle. It took only one visit to realize that this is where we wanted to live, work and raise our children. We went back and forward , sold our home/company and moved to what we think is a most extraordinary place.
We are extremely proud to own and operate Stuetz Mountain Retreat, where you will receive top notch personal attention to make your stay a memorable one.
We are the Property manager of this unique "Black Bear Loft" Cabin.

In our life, it has been clear that nothing comes easily. We are happy that we took the hard road in many areas to develop and maintain our land, knowing that this efforts will eventually produce better results. Since we are family owned and operated we also maintain a self-sustainable lifestyle. Instead of using disposable products constantly, Sam and Tammy aims to use recyclable and reusable alternatives, even though they often require more effort.
Enjoy your stay with us!
