Tennessee: Gatlinburg, Timber Tops – Vacation Cabins Made for Family Fun.055TNTimberTopsView  Gatlinburg is a terrific summer family vacation spot – cool mountain air, spunky shops, trendy restaurants, and oodles of ways to have fun. And to maximize freedom, the ideal family vacation base is a mountaintop cabin. 
 
An ideal mountaintop cabin would have comfortable couches to relax and reconnect, an abundance of room for crazy fun and games, yet private rooms to be together yet not give up privacy - space to enjoy the awesome Smokies and Mother Nature’s landscaping. Timber Tops Luxury Cabin Rentals has more ideal mountaintop cabins than anyone would think possible.

Timber Tops, based in nearby Sevierville, has an extensive menu of mountaintop family vacation cabins - with options from one-bedroom honeymoon suites to fifteen-room lodges. The word cabin does not do justice to the awesome offerings featured at their website. Call it a getaway spot, vacation retreat, or even a family escape, but the idea is to have find a place to relax and have fun with your family.
 
After browsing through Timber Tops rich menu of choices, I think I have a case of cabin fever – in a good way. The informative and efficient website showcases more than 300 premium log cabins. Top of the Line amenities come standard with these cabins, including Jacuzzis, fireplaces, central air & heat, charcoal grill, and a full size kitchen, complete with pots and pans. Special cabin amenities, which are available by choice, include seclusion, indoor pools, outdoor pools, pet friendly, arcade games, honeymoon suites and complete home theatre systems, stadium seating and all. 055TNTimberTopsRoom

Browse the cabin menu selection (just looking at the pictures will be enjoyable) which offers a variety of locations, sizes and amenities. Category browsing is rewarding because narrowing the options makes it easier to find the perfect match. Categories include cabins decorated for Christmas, cabins with a view, pet friendly cabins, cabins with home theater room, cabins with an indoor pool, and CAPS (Certified Aging in Place) cabins ranging in size from one to 15. Choose a budget cabin for a great price, or go all out with a level of luxury and redefine "roughing it" in the Smokies.
 
I am always drawn to clever names after all I have to think of the Facebook tags on my family vacation images. Timber Tops delivers clever names for awesome cabins. For example I like “Cowboy Retreat” - a beautiful one bedroom, two bath cabin with a view, full kitchen, spiral staircase, hot tub, pool table, electronic dartboard, DVD/VCR combo on 31" living room TV, and a stereo with CD player. 

Or how about “A Bear's Retreat” – a three bedroom, two bath, stylish semi-secluded log cabin only a few miles from downtown Pigeon Forge and Dollywood. The cabin has a deck, full kitchen, private bedrooms, 42" LCD TV with VCR and DVD Player, Cable TV throughout the cabin, hot tub, pool table, second 22" LCD TV and a Stereo with CD player, Foosball Table set around another Big Screen TV and a gas log fireplace.  The retreat theme works for our family because each of us wishes to leave our hectic schedules and chill but not give up any creature comforts.

How about a family reunion spot? Imagine a three level mountaintop retreat panoramic view of Great Smoky Mountain National Park from all three levels. Ideal for a large family getaway, Smoky Vista Lodge provides 5,200 sq/ft of elegant living space, an open log framed floor plan, seven bedrooms and nine baths, and an additional 3,000 sq/ft of covered porches so everyone has an unobstructed view. Bonus points: The lodge is a Certified Aging-in-Place (CAPS) facility with numerous Universal Design features including an elevator, no-step entrance, curb-less shower, grab bars and flexible hand shower, ADA compliant toilets, lever handles, and rocker style switches.
