Stay Wild is an upscale, secluded mountain cabin where black bears are frequent visitors, along with wild turkeys and occasional sightings of deer and even a bobcat. Adventure is practically next door: WildSide Adventure Park is just 0.2 miles away and close enough to walk or bike.

Spread across three levels and 3,500 sq ft, the cabin sleeps 12 across 4 bedrooms — three king suites with private ensuite bathrooms, plus a bunk room (queen on bottom, single on top) — along with two sleeper sofas in common areas. Two full kitchens and two game spaces with arcade machines, shuffleboard, pool table, darts, karaoke, cornhole, and Giant Jenga make it ideal for large or multi-family groups wanting flexibility and entertainment without leaving the property.

Stay Wild books year-round: lush spring/summer greenery, fall foliage above the crowds, snow-dusted winter hot tub nights. Whether adventure or stillness — Stay Wild delivers.

Hi, I'm Bryan — outdoor enthusiast and self-proclaimed mountain person with a serious love for hiking and dogs. Stay Wild started with a simple idea: create the kind of place I'd actually want to stay — private, comfortable, well-equipped, and surrounded by nature. What it became is a property I'm genuinely proud of — an upscale rustic-chic retreat designed for groups who want to truly unwind together in the Smokies. I take hosting seriously. That means fast responses, transparent communication, and a cabin that's immaculately maintained and ready when you arrive. The details matter to me — because I know they matter to you. As a dog owner myself, I made Stay Wild pet friendly from the start. Your well-behaved dogs are welcome here. Whether this is your first trip to the Smokies or your tenth, I hope Stay Wild gives your group the space, comfort, and memories you came for. — Bryan

Stay Wild occupies a rare sweet spot — 2.5 private acres on a secluded ridge between Pigeon Forge and Wears Valley, where you get genuine mountain seclusion without sacrificing convenience. The setting feels worlds away from the crowds, yet Dollywood, The Island in Pigeon Forge, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Ober Mountain, and WildSide Adventure Park are all just minutes down the road. Trailheads, local restaurants, distilleries, breweries, and grocery stores are equally accessible — so your group can move between total relaxation and full adventure on your own terms. The roads to the cabin are fully paved and easy to navigate — no white-knuckle mountain driving, no clearance concerns. Just a smooth, scenic arrival. The ridge location delivers something increasingly hard to find in this area: wide, sweeping views, genuine privacy, and the kind of quiet that reminds you why you came to the mountains in the first place. This is not a cabin wedged into a resort community. Stay Wild sits alone on its acreage — your group, your space, your mountain.
