The Overwatch
A 5-bedroom Smoky Mountain basecamp with a separate two-level game building, hot tub, fire pit, and telescope - on the quiet side of the Smokies, 15 minutes from Pigeon Forge and Dollywood.
No platform service fees
Booking direct skips the 12-15% guest service fee the big platforms add on top of the nightly rate.
Veteran owned and operated
You deal directly with the family that built this place - straight answers and fast responses, no call center.
Best rate, same cabin
The rate here will never be higher than the same dates on Airbnb or Vrbo. If it is, tell us and we will match it.
More than a cabin
Five bedrooms and eight beds across three levels, plus a fully finished two-level game building with pool, air hockey, foosball, arcade cabinets, skee ball, a slot machine, a jukebox, and a poker table with custom Overwatch chips. Evenings end in the hot tub or around the wood-burning fire pit under genuinely dark mountain sky.
Built for families and groups
The Overwatch is a fully remodeled mountain cabin on a quiet ridge in Wears Valley, the side of the Smokies locals keep for themselves. Over 3,300 finished square feet sleep fifteen, and the separate game building keeps every age entertained from breakfast to midnight.
Mornings start in a fully equipped kitchen with an island and updated appliances. Evenings belong to the outdoors: a 5-person hot tub, a pergola with a wood-burning fire pit and sun loungers, hanging bench swings on the wrap-around deck, and a telescope pointed at the ridgeline.
Every bedroom has its own Roku TV. The master and the upper king suite each have a jacuzzi tub, and the lower level king comes with its own bar seating for three.
