1 Bedroom Cabins in Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg
Whether you're planning a romantic honeymoon, a long-overdue anniversary trip, or just a weekend away from it all, a 1-bedroom cabin in the Smoky Mountains is the perfect fit. Colonial Properties offers 30 hand-selected 1-bedroom cabin rentals near Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg — each one privately managed, thoroughly inspected, and loaded with the amenities that make a mountain getaway feel truly special.
Every cabin in this collection includes a fully equipped kitchen, cozy fireplace, and some offer high-speed WiFi. Most feature a private outdoor hot tub, and many offer sweeping mountain views, river access, or a secluded forest setting just minutes from the Parkway.
Why a 1-Bedroom Cabin in the Smokies?
A 1-bedroom cabin gives you something a hotel simply can't: your own private space, your own schedule, and the feeling of actually living in the mountains — even if only for a few nights. Cook breakfast on your own timeline, soak in a hot tub under the stars, and wake up to a mountain view from your bedroom window. It's the most popular choice for couples in the Smokies, and for good reason.
Our 1-bedroom cabins are located within 5–15 minutes of top attractions like Dollywood, The Island in Pigeon Forge, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and downtown Gatlinburg. You get the seclusion of the mountains and the convenience of everything the Smokies has to offer.
Perfect for Couples, Honeymoons & Anniversaries
Colonial's 1-bedroom cabins are a favorite among newlyweds and couples celebrating anniversaries. Many feature heart-shaped Jacuzzi tubs, gas fireplaces, and private decks made for two — details that turn a good trip into an unforgettable one. If you're looking for a honeymoon cabin or a secluded escape for a special occasion, this is where to start.
Don't let the "1-bedroom" label fool you — several of our cabins in this category sleep 4, 6, or even 8 guests thanks to sleeper sofas and loft sleeping areas, making them a smart option for small families or groups of friends traveling on a budget.
