About this cabin rental
𝗠𝘂𝗱𝗽𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗲𝘀 & 𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗻 is a well-maintained traditional Gatlinburg log cabin that blends rustic charm with modern updates in the fully remodeled kitchen and bathrooms. Mudpuppies is relaxing with a family-friendly atmosphere accommodating up to 12 people (maximum 8 adults), where you can unwind and connect with nature on the 3 cabin length covered decks. Situated in a neighborhood-style resort (not secluded), the cabin is near local attractions, restaurants, and Rocky Top Sports. One of the resort pools (open May - Sept) is walkable from the cabin; and a recreation area with a second pool, basketball hoop, swings, charcoal grills, and a reservable pavilion are a short drive to another area of the resort. Entertainment, new family memories, and nostalgia feelings are guaranteed with amenities like a pool table, shuffleboard table, arcades, and board games! Guest reviews tell our story best!

The owners would quickly respond if we had questions and everything was such a smooth process. We had kids infant to 5 years old and it was the perfect house for everyone.

I couldn’t ask for anything more. Most times rooms are smaller, not as nice, but not here. It was exactly as nice as promoted.
Thank you!!

Our group of 11 (ages 6 to 65) enjoyed all the amenities offered at mudpuppies and moonshine cabin, with the game room being a fast favorite! The cabin itself was well appointed and clean. Our host was always easy to get ahold of and responded promptly. Thank you again for a great stay!

The cabin was wonderful and clean, well stocked kitchen. The bathrooms were gorgeous with great water pressure. The drive up is steep and parking is on an incline. Drive in to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg were both simple.
Overall, we were very happy with our stay that included adults, teens, and children.

This beatiful cabin exceeded our expectations! Our family of seven had more than enough space to relax and unwind. We were pleasantly surprised at how well the kitchen was stocked. We did a little cooking on the outdoor grill and did not have to purchase any paper/plastic products. We used the cookware and eatery items provided in the cabin and popped everything in the dishwasher for easy cleanup. Even the dishwasher pods were provided.
The game room was a hit with the younger members of our crew, and even us oldie but goodies got in a few hands of Uno.
Thanks April and Dave for an experience we won't soon forget!

We absolutely have nothing negative we could say about the cabin or owners! Everything was exactly as described and the owners were great with communication! They were kind and offered us an early check in the day before our arrival.
Our daughters getting a weekend away as their 11th birthday present!! Thank you again for the amazing stay!

Cabin was great. It list most of the rooms as first floor but the cabin is actually three stories. Master on main floor but others are in basement or first floor and master bedroom on first. Other than that it was great.

This was our first family vacation which included our adult kids and grandchildren with a combined total of 10 people. We decided to rent a cabin in Gatlinburg and chose the Mudpuppies and Moonshine. The cabin was well stocked, clean and cozy with each family having their own floor to themselves. It’s close to town with easy access to the main highway, attractions and the Artist District is about a 5 minute drive. April and Dave were prompt in responding to any questions or issues and were prompt in releasing our security deposit after inspecting the cabin. The check-in/out was a breeze. On the flip side, the cabin’s living room is a bit small to accommodate large gatherings, the entrance to the addition and parking were quite a challenge-not something any of us would want to do in inclement weather. Overall, the cabin has tons of room, the arcades, shuffleboard and bunk beds were a hit with the grandkids and the pool table and hot tub were fun for the adults.
5.0 / 5.0
We stayed in Moonshine and Mudpuppies Cabin with our three teenagers and senior citizen parents. The main floor was perfect for our parents with access to the amenities without the need for climbing stairs. The kids enjoyed the lower level’s quietness so they could sleep late even with early rising grandparents along. The upper level game room was fun for all ages. With the openness to the main floor everyone felt together whether their energy level had them shooting pool upstairs or watching tv in the living room. All around everyone enjoyed our stay.

We had a few issues with some dishes that were apparently put away dirty in the cabinets but we had good communication with the owners and I feel they will address any issues that come up.
5.0 / 5.0
We enjoyed it. We had 9 people (4 adults). The bunk bed set up was perfect for the kids, and the upstairs loft area was fun for all. The hot tub was also a hit, and the kitchen was well stocked to have dinners in.
5.0 / 5.0
Great location, very accessible to Gatlinburg, the national park, and Pigeon Forge. Very roomy cabin, plenty of space for our family of 10. Loved the game room! Not much of a view, but we did have multiple bear sightings from the back deck of the cabin. The roads in the resort are quite steep so be prepared to park on an incline. Cabins are close together, but we never felt closed in or bothered by neighbors.

We had a wonderful stay in Mudpuppies and Moonshine Cabin! We had 11 total, ranging from an 8 month old, 3, 6, 9, 12 yr old to well, let's just say grandparents age! Fun was had by all. Everyone loved the game room, the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious, the kitchen was well-furnished with pots, pans, coffee pots, blender, knives, grilling essentials. Any time we had a question, we received an immediate response. Check-in, check-out quick and easy. We rented this home on the recommendation of a friend, and would recommend it to any of our friends heading to the Smoky Mountains!!

Extended family of 8 travelled beginnings of July for one week. Cabin was perfect, plenty of space for all of us, ready at 4 pm (traveling from different parts of PA, so timing was important to us!), Incredibly clean! Plenty of great kitchen supplies, we utilized the grill three different times! Game room was a hit not just for our kids (ages 8 -14), but for all the adults as well. Would recommend to anyone! Thanks for a great vacation!

An absolutely wonderful cabin. Great communication with the property manager. Parking can be a little dicey, but we got used to it. Highly recommend!

My son got married so my family rented the cabin so we could be together. The cabin was excellent for a large group. Game room was fun. There is 1 BR on the main floor, perfect for my parents (no stairs). The upstairs bed room gets warm bc heat rises, but there is a separate unit to cool it.
Owners were quick to respond with questions and issues. (Garbage full, light out over stove) Nothing major.
The only reason this wasn't a perfect cabin was the hill to get to the cabin was very steep. Only 1 car had issues so we parked it elsewhere. All suvs were able to handle the road (Chevy equinox, Toyota Highlander, Jeep Cherokee, Ford expedition Max, Dodge Pick up, Honda mini van) People were giving rides, taking wedding stuff etc. 3 parking places for cabin is the limit as all cabins stayed full around us.
I would def rent again. 3 generations and 1 Groom enjoyed the stay.

A perfect place for a family of three generations to gather. Nice accommodations, everything we needed in the kitchen and a great game loft that was a hit with the kids. Hosts were easy to communicate with and responded promptly to our questions. Easy access to Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Would definitely book again.

We had a great stay at the cabin. Our party was two families of 5, which included six kids between the ages of 6 and 15. There was plenty of space for everyone! The game room was a hit with the kids. Everything was very clean, including the hot tub. We’ll definitely be back!
5.0 / 5.0
Cabin in a nice area, close to grocery store and downtown Gatlinburg.
You do have to travel up a very steep hill and back down another one and the parking is very tight when all cabins are full.
But nice cabin and suited our family of eight adults and 4 children quite well.
Would rent again.

Beautiful cabin. Fun for the family.
The cabin was clean and well maintained, It was very conveniently located to downtown Gatlinburg, but away from the crowds. The kids loved the video games in the loft. The bedrooms were roomy and the kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, etc. There is a big grill on the deck off the kitchen, and a hot tub on the lower deck. There is a pool at the resort which the kids made use of every day. The owners were friendly and responded promptly to texts and messages. We hsd a great time!
