Happy Camper: Free Attraction Tickets, Pet Friendly, Hot Tub & In Wears Valley
About this cottage rental
Cattiage—n. hybrid of a cabin and a cottage designed for escape from daily pressures, enjoyment of God's creation as found in the Great Smoky Mountains, and equipped for relaxation, contemplation, and memorable fun. “Happy Camper” –proper n. of “cattiage” 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 laurel, rhododendrum. 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, and you have arrived onto the covered entry deck with a key-pad 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 there are also tv trays 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 of double leather recliners, shag rug, large tv, and murphy bed with top of the line SealyTM mattress (single size). Cozy gas corner fireplace will provide beautiful flames great to watch while also providing an excellent source of warm heat! The adjoining sunroom has two loveseats (one of which makes out to single bed also with 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 mattress—owners say a good night's sleep is important to a good vacation), phone docking stations built into side tables, custom-made shutters to enjoy both privacy as well as the natural beauty of the outdoors. There is also a tv in the bedroom if you'd like to end your day with a good movie or wake up to some morning news (but why?). Bathroom is accessible from both living area and from bedroom and includes a full-sized see- through corner shower, sink with space for additional items (makeup, toothbrushes, etc.). Forget your hair dryer? No problem. There is one in the bathroom for you! Bathroom also has nice window to enjoy both additional light and the 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 a small pet are kept safe. On the back and also private side of the cattiage 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 dog and marshmallow skewers are in kitchen cabinet). Create your own personal ambience on the private deck, in the hot tub, and around the firepit. The night is yours! Seize the moment! Just a little extra information is that our water is straight out of the mountains via a private well and is chocked full of vitamins and minerals. It is excellent tasting; so much so that many people come to get their drinking water from this area. “Happy Camper” is the perfect cattiage for two but can also accommodate two additional guests with the inclusion of the custom-built Murphy bed and the pull-out sofa. Road Conditions to This Cabin: all easy accessible roads -- as you turn off paved Covemont Road onto gravel road, be sure to keep your speed steady as you climb the slight hill; bear to left/straight ahead at "Happy Camper" sign.

This "cattiage" was a tranquil haven! The property was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and offered complete privacy. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

The cabin exceeded my expectations!! Great private location, but close enough to local attractions.
If we are being nitpicky, the hot tub had some dirt in the bottom, bath towels need replaced, and it would of been nice to have kuerig pods provided.
I would definitely stay here again. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking in and the bed was comfortable. It was the perfect size for a couple and our dogs.

We came in for “Go Topless in the Smokies Day” and were delighted to have found Happy Camper for our stay! It is the perfect little private guest house located in Wears Valley about halfway between Townsend and Pigeon Forge. The pics don’t really do it justice. Extremely clean and well appointed. King size bed in master is very comfy. We will definitely be booking another stay here!

This cabin is absolutely perfect for a romantic getaway. It is about a 20-30 min drive to the main road in pigeon forge, so close enough to drive for dinner or to any of those attractions. But it is also far enough away that it is a little more secluded and private. We loved ending our evenings in the hot tub, it was the perfect way to unwind from the days adventures. I will say the driveway has a 12 degree grade, so we had to put the truck in 4wd to make it up without slipping on the gravel. I imagine it would probably be more difficult to drive on in icy/snowy weather. The cabin itself was very clean, the bed super comfortable, and the cabin had an overall very cozy feel. If we go for another getaway in that area again, we will definitely stay here!

This cabin is charming and secluded with a beautiful view and access to all the area attractions. We were very pleased, and our dogs loved watching the squirrels through the many windows.

We really enjoyed our time at the Happy Camper. We arrived just as the region—like much of the country—was experiencing record low temperatures due to the massive arctic system pushing across the US. Tennessee implemented rolling blackouts which did affect the cabin; David, the owner, was so helpful and came over to check on us despite it being Christmas Eve. Thankfully the blackouts were short lived and we were able to enjoy our holiday getaway without complications. The cabin was truly lovely and very convenient to the park, which was perfect for us. Overall a fantastic trip.

This cabin is so cute, cozy, and has everything you need to have a great get away. My husband, dog, and I arrived Monday night and were booked to stay until Friday. Monday, we stayed in and enjoyed everything the cabin had to offer and the surrounding area. Cooked on the grill, rocked on the porch, enjoyed the hot tub, walked the area, and just relaxed. Tuesday, we went into the Smokey Mountains to hike with the dog, which was amazing. Enjoyed downtown Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge as well. The curvy roads I didn't care for, but that is everywhere you go in the mountains. Wednesday, morning we were sitting on the porch drinking coffee and we thought we saw some smoke in the distance, but wasn't to sure. End up going back into the mountains to hike and on our way, we noticed the wild fires, which looked to be kinda close. We ended up cutting our hiking trip short to head back to the cabin, as we kept getting emergency alerts for the wildfires, but didn't know how close or if we were in the evacuation plan. While we were relaxing at the cobin, there was a knock at the door, and the owners of the cabin had stopped over to check on us, give us an update on the wildfires, and told us they would keep us informed of what was going on. After they left, they ended up calling us a few times to let you know what they had heard from the police/fire fighters in the area (which we thought was very sweet). Around 10pm we received the phone call that we were about of the mandatory evacuation of the area. We were bummed but understood as my husband and I are both first responders. We packed up the car, grabbed the dog, and headed off. We had no clue what to do or where to go, but we headed on out to the Pigeon Forge area. We were able to find a hotel that was pet friendly, so we were able to stay the night. We ended up getting a refund of the two days that we were able to stay at the cabin and refund was in our account on Thursday. The owner and management company have been great. We truly were sad we had to leave early, but totally understand and appreciate everything they did for us. We will for sure be back to this cabin again. Hope everyone who rents this cabin has a great experience.

I've never been so happy with any place that I've stayed. It was amazing and just what we needed. I cannot wait to go back.

My family of four plus our dog enjoyed our stay very much. Neighbors weren’t too close so it felt private and surrounded by woods. We enjoyed the gated deck as did our dog. Nice fire pit area and hot tub with privacy. Overall an enjoyable stay and would recommend.
