4. Spend Plenty of Time at Your Home Away from Home
While you will definitely want to explore the area during your honeymoon, be sure to leave some time to take advantage of the amenities at your romantic cabin in the Smoky Mountains. Newlyweds will love sitting out on their deck and savoring the majestic mountain views in the distance. To make your time on the deck even more romantic, take a relaxing soak in the hot tub with your sweetheart.
If you will be honeymooning in Gatlinburg during the cooler months, you can snuggle up in front of your cabin’s toasty fireplace. Some of our properties also come with indoor Jacuzzis, so you can unwind in the bath after a day of fun in town. All of our cabins and chalets feature fully furnished kitchens, so couples can easily whip up a tasty meal or snack. Chocolate covered strawberries are always a great idea for a romantic retreat!
